Fics like A Scholar's Descent

Following his expulsion from the Akademiya, Zandik was thrown in the desert with nothing but the clothes on his back. The desert was merciless, stretching endlessly as its unbearable heat could only be matched by the dangers concealed beneath its golden sands. Survival became a battle where he couldn't even guarantee absolute victory. That was until he came across an abandoned puppet buried deep near some ruins. The puppet was deceptively strong and fair-faced, which made him a useful companion in enduring the desert's cruelty. The puppet too lacked a heart which added fuel to the fire that was Zandik's burning interest in him. Zandik promised the puppet a heart. In exchange, he asked for a price that the puppet had yet to realize was far too heavy to pay. Or, Zandik encountered an unassuming puppet in the desert.
