In his portraits, in her memories, in her dreams, but whatever awaited him after life, whether existence simply darkened or he turned his head skyward forevermore, he’d never see her again. a woman in red chases after her husband as he goes off to war, presumably to die. General Anda Uunangon leads a divided continent with magical artifacts in one hand and her charismatic husband in the other. The day he died derailed her destiny. Still, Anda continues her duties of protecting their hidden continent from the rest of the known world while struggling to contain her grief-stricken magic, which provides the perfect opportunity for her enemies. As political powers move against her, Anda slowly transforms into a weeping Omen, a corporeal and vengeful memento of whom she lost. Her fellow generals step in. Against her wishes, they release her husband's artifact, that it may choose a new wielder and give Anda a fresh purpose. The new wielder is all enthusiasm and no discernment. Not only must she train him in magic, but she must also inspire him to join her people's fight for self-actualization. Unfortunately, his personal interests of bringing his family to their continent might lead him to align with her enemies and use her husband's artifact against her. vBookcovers for THIS IS HOW YOU LOSE THE TIME WAR, BLOOD OVER BRIGHT HAVEN, and THE GOD AND THE GUMIHO. Comp reasons. Forbidden love, enemies but not really, anti-colonialism, magic system as a tool of oppression, historical C-drama instead of K-drama

Sometimes the hardest lesson to learn is how to love yourself.

Two women a century apart & connected by a Brooklyn brownstone must decide if they have the strength to stand up for the lives they want, despite their families & society’s rules.
