Once, before Griz was known as Griz, he was Larsen del Cruz. This was before he had a scar that split his face, eyebrow to jaw. When he was one of the Draecenguard. He was also a man who fell in love. Forbidden love. That love gave him a scar and nearly cost him his life. It definitely cost him more than that. The full effects of that loss lasted years. It’s still lasting. Allegra Draecen has known only one way of life. Leaving that life behind was not an easy decision. Nor was it one she came to quickly. She can only hope her choice does not endanger those she loves or those she left behind.
