Description
What starts as a much-needed vacation for the world’s most powerful mage, Wisteria Shien, and her partner, Clematis, quickly devolves into a nightmare of eldritch proportions. Seeking an escape from the pressures of magic, the pair travels to a remote, anti-magic sanctuary. But in a land where mages are myths, the locals’ hospitality masks a dark, cavernous secret—one that hungers for Wist’s unmatched power.
When Wist vanishes and the town is sealed behind impenetrable walls, Clematis finds herself trapped in a perpetual, suffocating autumn. Wist has returned, but she is no longer the woman who sought a quiet getaway. Transformed into an invincible, tyrannical Queen, Wist has halted time, holding the entire town hostage to her whims. She has become the ultimate adversary, ruling with a cold, absolute authority that defies explanation.
Yet, Wist has underestimated the one person who knows her best. Clematis doesn't need magic or salvation to challenge an immortal ruler; she possesses a fierce, unwavering devotion that burns even brighter in the face of tyranny. As their dynamic shifts into a volatile battle of wills, both women discover that their conflict is merely a strange, dangerous deepening of their bond. In this horror-tinged, slow-burn romance, the lines between lover and enemy dissolve, proving that some loves are strong enough to break—and reshape—the world.
