  Summary

  Khaslana and Zandar. Kephale and Cerces. Phainon and Anaxa.

  Their names change, their fates even more so. And yet, they still find each other - they still reach for one another, even when they find themselves faced with the end of the world.

  Even when they can't agree on the fate of the world as it dies.
