Description

Is it truly better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all? In Larken's case, he isn't so sure. He did love someone, then he lost them, and it hurt like hell. Now, Larken has to figure out how he's going to get over it and find love once more. Then again, does he even want to care for someone so strongly for a second time? He's had his heart broken once, and he fears it's too soon to open up to someone else. But how can he really deny the new feelings that are growing inside him? Khale, on the other hand, has yet to fall in love at all. It's something he's wanted his whole life, and now he finds that it may be within his grasp. Khale could love Larken with all his heart-he can see himself with the warrior for the rest of his life. But Khale also yearns for Vardel to finally accept him as his son, and this wanting misguides him, leading him into trouble. Now he needs Larken's help-he needs the man he's fallen in love with to save him, but he fears his secrets and possible betrayal will have ruined his chance of ever finding happiness.
