“Because happiness is brief, and history is lasting, and in the end,” he says, “everyone wants to be remembered.”
But what fascinated Victor most was the fact that something about Eli was decidedly wrong. He was like one of those pictures full of small errors, the kind you could only pick out by searching the image from every angle, and even then, a few always slipped by.
Nikolina Appreciation Week 2023 ♛ Day 3: Endgame
↳ It takes Alina less than a day away from Ravka to realise where her heart truly is. Nikolai’s smile upon her return is radiant, to say the least, and the ceremony is planned with haste. After a true, quiet event during which the two trade vows, the public event is one with such pomp that for years it is the favourite event to talk about during tea. Alina and Nikolai live a life together unlike any king and queen before them. With their reign being one of peace and technological advancement, bringing Ravka to a new age.
Nikolina Appreciation Week 2023 ♛ Day 2: Favourite AU
↳ Tangled AU A pirate on the run with the loot of a lifetime, a lost princess unaware of her identity, a fateful meeting that will seal their fates together.
Nikolina Appreciation Week 2023 ♛ Day 2: Favourite AU - Sankta Alina & Sankt Nikolai
Ever since their first fateful meeting, Sankta Alina and Sankt Nikolai were drawn to each other’s courage, kindness, and shared sense of purpose. Over time, their devout friendship blossomed into a deep and abiding love.
Their true test came when the Shadow Fold, began to spread across Ravka, threatening to engulf the entire land in eternal darkness. Along the way, despite enduring many perils, Sankta Alina and Sankt Nikolai never lost faith in each other or the sight of their duty. In the end, they succeeded in destroying the Shadow Fold and saving Ravka.
Alas, their victory came at a great cost. Both Sankta Alina and Sankt Nikolai were mortally wounded in the final battle but even as their bodies failed them, their spirits remained unbroken. Their love and legacy endured even beyond death. They have become revered as the patron saints of Ravka and protectors of its people.

Enemy territory. And here I was starting to relax.”

↳ He leaned in, giving me time to pull away. I could feel his breath when he said, “I love it when you quote me.” He brushed his lips over mine once, briefly, then again. It was less a kiss than the promise of one. “When you’re ready,” he said.

You think too highly of mortals. They give nothing to the universe, and the universe owes them nothing in return. If they cannot survive, then let them die.
