In a World of Her Own Making

"never really been alive before; I always lived in my head"

The Spear, the Witch, and the Black Knight

A spear must be returned for a curse to be broken. One woman and her companion embark on a quest with death as a promise. At the end, not all is as it seems, and the bravery of one cannot outweigh the game of kings.

I have lost my mind

I am so obsessed with Seeking Persephone, I started writing fan fiction for it:

His "True" Wife (2240 words) by johnlock4eva Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: The Lancaster Family Series - Sarah M. Eden, Seeking Persephone Rating: Explicit Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Adam/Persephone Summary: Persephone was confused. It had been three days since Adam’s unannounced arrival in Shropshire. Three days since their confessions of love to one another. Three days of enduring her father and getting to know her sisters and brother. She should be happy, in fact she was happy, but there was this lingering doubt in her mind.   (Not sure how long this will be yet, Explicit for later chapters)

I am going to answer your questions here on my new main blog for Sandokan :)

Your poem is so fitting for them. I am going to share it here so others can read too.

One of the reasons I think this show gives us such a revolutionary romance is due to the performance of Can and Alanah. Speaking of Shakespeare, I love the scene were Sandokan quotes Shakespeare and Marianne is amazed. It makes me giggle and is so lighthearted, giving us s small glimpse into their instant connection.

Can we just talk for a second on their first dance scene? When he lifts her in the air and she looks dazzled, I could melt in the floor. But more than that, this shows how through knowing and meeting Sandokan, and being on his ship eventually, illuminates her understanding of the world and how to be free in it. As you said, he is "the man who gives her wings to fly".

Thank you for the ask friend!
