Magic is feared. Monsters roam the wilds. A princess who trusts neither finds herself with only one chance of making it home alive: the monster hunter everyone else calls a monster.
You are a mage, with no recollection of who you are outside of your name. A strange man finds you as you flick in and out of consciousness, when you properly awake he has questions.
Celestine Ceren Rutherford, a fallen noble from a ruined barony, enters service in the floating city of Astralheim, where all magic is regulated and protected. She is sworn in as a maid within the Citadel—the inner residence of the Archon Magus, Y/N L/N, a once-in-history arcane sovereign who stands equal to empires and beyond imperial control by ancient covenant. Under the strict and absolute supervision of Head Maid Adela Evergarden, Celestine joins a rigid hierarchy where even silence is governed. Though she tries to maintain emotional indifference, her true feelings constantly slip through, marking her as emotionally vulnerable in a place that demands perfection. As she begins her service, she steps into proximity with a world shaped by overwhelming magical authority, where every action is recorded, discipline is absolute, and even the Archon Magus—though unseen—defines the entire structure of life within Astralheim.
In the mystical nation of Daeho, elite young mages are defined by their prestigious family names and rigid training. Min Yoongi—the brilliant but reclusive descendant of a fallen house—wants - has absolutely nothing to do with that world, choosing to hide away in a frozen northern valley. But when a severe winter storm strands six chaotic young masters from Daeho’s highest noble houses on his doorstep, guided by "user," a sharp-witted tavern keeper's daughter, Yoongi’s quiet isolation is shattered. What starts as a single night of surviving the frost turns into an unexpected, ongoing bond. As Yoongi's quiet cottage and "user's" bustling family tavern become secret safe havens from the heavy pressures of the mage world, seven isolated paths begin to blur into one. Can an icy heart melt in the warmth of ordinary friendship? Step into a magical, slow-burn fantasy of youth, growth, and the family we choose for ourselves.
A dark spin-off from the "Bound by the Stars" In the capital city of Daeho, the forbidden Alchemy of Souls runs rampant in the dark, leaving a trail of stolen bodies and petrified stone. Min Yoongi—once the kingdom’s most feared shadow assassin—lives in desperate, frozen isolation, harbouring a lethal secret: he is a soul-shifter, struggling to keep his unstable energy from turning him to stone. His sanctuary is shattered when "user," crashes through his door alongside six elite young mages fleeing a rogue monster. The tension is razor-sharp: the mages are trained to hunt shifters, and Yoongi is exactly what they seek. But "user" possesses a rare, dormant ability to see the true shape of a human soul, spotting Yoongi’s forbidden mark instantly. Instead of exposing him, "user" shields his identity, offering her unique, soul-stabilizing warmth to keep him alive in exchange for his protection. In a world of deadly political conspiracies, cursed energies, and rogue magic, a dangerous alliance is forged. Can a broken soul survive the shadows of Daeho, or will the truth turn them all to stone?
