A Romantasy Novella
Sena Larkspur has spent eleven years making sure no one ever needed her the way her sister needed the Crown's mercy - and got none. As an unlicensed Lender in Ashgate Ward, she trades in rest she can't legally spare, keeping half the lower ward standing through a war that runs on other people's exhaustion.
Then a raid drags a dying man onto her table: Rian Duskwell, commander of the enemy dream-defense corps, his Tether severed and his reserve bleeding out past saving. Every rule she knows says let him go. Instead, Sena does the one thing no Concord-sanctioned healer would risk - she Tethers herself to a stranger, an enemy, without permission, without a match, without a way to undo it.
It works. It works too well. Sena isn't just a Lender anymore; she's a Wellspring, the rarest and most dangerous thing either Crown can claim, and now both sides want to own what she's become. With three days before the Vigil decides her fate - the Long Sleep, lifelong conscription, or a diplomatic cage dressed up as peace - Sena and Rian have to choose whether to become a treaty or run.
Some debts can't be repaid. Some can only be shared.
