After being forced apart during the Human-Witch War, Liria had thought her childhood best friend long dead, but he suddenly appears in her life again after she's had a child, loved a man, and lost a husband. Aster can't believe how much of her life he's missed. Liria had long given up on seeing Aster, one of her closest friends, and as she raises her daughter, Astraea, alone, she thinks of him constantly. She has been rebuilding a quiet life, teaching Astraea to use magic, even after she had lost her ability to perform magic herself. When Aster appeared suddenly in her living room, she thought she finally would not have to do it all alone anymore. But Aster disappears again. Liria sends him letter after letter, but she can't quite convince him to come back to her. Aster has spent the last decade recovering from months of being tortured. He was no longer the spirited and strong man Liria had known, and he could not stand to be a disappointment. He had missed so much of her life, and he had already broken his most important promise to her: stay by her side forever. Can Aster and Liria help Aster feel worthy of being loved again?
