Love in a tarven
842 Views · Ongoing · Mojolaoluwa Saliu
One botched spell. Five impossible tasks. One sanctuary full of secrets.
Elowen Riverleaf only wanted a quiet life. After getting fired from her magic library job for skimming on the side, she steals back her earnings and buys a ruined crossroads tavern. All Elowen wants is a nice warm place for her brother to live, until one accidental wave of her hand magic triggers a dormant Sanctuary Ward.
Suddenly the doors are sealed, trapping Elowen, her brother, and four odd strangers, inside the storm-choked Glimmer-Frost. The only way to break the spell is for the six of them to work together and turn this crossroads tavern into a Five-Star Sanctuary.
From doors that lead to mer-kingdoms to clockwork kitchens, the misfit band has to complete tasks to earn each star. As Elowen grows fond of the clever but reserved scholar Theron, she finds herself breaking her own rules of keeping people at a distance...and learning some not-so-pretty secrets in the process. With the final trial looming, can Elowen's budding feelings for Theron survive the sanctified lies, or will her heart be crushed like the bones of the old world?
