The Fjord Remembers Fire

Fire-rune witch Astrid and frost-shield witch Yrsa marry to halt a clan war neither woman believes can truly end. Their shared script can command weather only when both freely complete it—and every powerful rune erases a memory of family. When frost and flame uncover proof that both queens engineered the founding massacre, the brides must destroy the Winter Throne, surrender the histories that shaped them, and build a peace no bloodline owns.

Two rival rune witches marry to stop a war, but their first chosen frost-fire bond reveals both queens built peace upon a massacre.
