Summary
A knight without a kingdom, bereft of duty, without her monarchs, is no knight at all.
Dryya wakes in the Queen's Gardens months after her death, confused and alone. The White Lady is gone. There are no more infected mantises polluting her Lady's realm, just a scattered collection of mutated wild animals. She has stood valiantly at her post for three centuries. Without her Queen, what is she to do?
Without purpose for the first time in almost a millennia, Dryya must forge herself a new one: she will reassemble her lost knights and do what she can to put the broken remnants of her King's realm back together. But much time has passed since her quasi-exile in the Gardens, and much that once was is now lost. Despite her long centuries as a warrior of unparalleled might, Dryya will learn that the toughest battles are those that come when there are no enemies left to fight.
Disclaimer: extremely long-form fic. Slow burn. Extensive flashbacks. Read the tags.
