Dark Fantasy.

What does it truly mean to be a monster? The Royalian Empire's second prince Drefan barely survives weeks of opium detox in his attempts to forget what has driven him into the northern deserts. In hopes to battle what has left him marred and escape those that have made of him a monster, who deserves to have that word etched into his skin. At the same time in the Camarian Empire, Nathanael, the child-prince who was removed from society due to his chronic illness, is dying. It is not long after he learns this, that he hears that he is a monster from the lips of his religious family. Devastated he will do anything to be accepted by his god and family again, including not fight an unjust fate. Note: The main characters are LGBT. Deals with Drug Addiction and Abuse.
