A Court of Magic & Melodies

Summary:

A Gwynriel fanfic taking place shortly after the events of 'A Court of Silver Flames' - where Gwyneth Berdara comes to terms with her new and growing power and potential, and The Shadowsinger of the Night Court comes to terms with feelings and emotions - especially those concerning a certain coppery-haired Priestess.

Written before the release of 'A House of Flame & Shadows'! I have been steadily writing this fanfic for about two years and finally plucked up the courage to post it because, why not! All characters, magic systems and worlds belong to Sarah J Maas, but it has been fun to weave some of my own ideas between all the characters' lives whilst we wait for the next books to be published. This isn't necessarily what I think will happen in the next books - rather just a little creative task I've enjoyed tapping away at when times were tough. If there are any typos or non-canon events, please forgive me. I'm a fan but I'm also just doing this for a bit of fun!

Slow burn with eventual smut because it's what we all deserve...

It looks like a lot of chapters, I know. But they are relatively bite-sized so don't be intimidated...

Enjoy!

Chapter 1: ONE

Chapter Text

There was never a day so misty and grey,
That the blue was not somewhere above it.

There was never a mountaintop so bleak,
That some little flower does not love it.

There was never a night so dreary and dark,
That the stars were not somewhere, shining.

There is never a cloud so heavy and black,
That it has not a silver lining.
