Fics like Where the Embers Still Burn

In the House of the Hearth, children are taught that family is competition, kindness is weakness, and only one of them will survive to become King. Peruere has never cared much for Mother's stories. Clervie has never been very good at obeying them. From a funeral held for a spider beneath an old tree grows a friendship neither girl was meant to keep: shared cakes, secret books, whispered complaints, bandaged hands, and a promise that one day they will leave the House behind and travel north to see colored lights dancing across Snezhnaya's sky. Years later, Crucabena's final contest forces them to turn their weapons on each other. Clervie is supposed to die. Instead, at the last possible moment, she chooses to live. One choice is enough to change the House of the Hearth—and the lives of everyone who will one day call it home.
