Kenric Fathdon had always been the type to observe before he acted. Maybe the Neverseen was right. It was always in the back of his mind, but deep down, he knew the Council was flawed. Maybe it was time to act on that. Alternate timeline where Kenric gets kidnapped instead of dying from the fire, but this time, instead of going back to the Council, Kenric stays with the Neverseen? Read more to find out! Also, read my other koralie fanfic similar to this but Kenric goes back to the Council: https://www.wattpad.com/story/367363782-fireproof-kenric-and-oralie

What happens if something different happened with the Everblaze, and something different happened to Kenric? If Fintan could survive, then what about Kenric? Would the Neverseen save Kenric to use as a bargining chip? Or would they make him join? kenralie koralie kenric + oralie

The world thought Kenric died. And maybe somewhere deep down, a little part of him had in the time he'd spent in the Neverseen's clutches. But it didn't matter when he saw her. None of it mattered. Only her. Oralie's world was gone. All she could do was put one step in front of the other, desperately hoping everything she'd ever worked for was not for nothing. She was drowning, but it didn't matter. None of it mattered. Because he was gone. ~ Oralie always thought she'd step down with Kenric once this was all over. She'd spend the rest of her life with him. It never occurred to her that by the time this ended, he'd be gone. Now she's falling apart, and no one's there to pick up the pieces. But when a showdown with the Neverseen reveals their possession of a hostage that could throw the Lost Cities into chaos, she's torn once more between her duties and her love. The whole world is depending on her to do the right thing. But he is her whole world. Spoiler alert: Kenric's alive hehe TW for mild descriptions of past torture/panic attacks/nightmares - any of these chapters will also include a TW at the beginning. Priority: high Updates: 7-10 days (attempted) Note: not my art, but it's so beautiful!! Also note: read Perfect Match on Ao3 by Fangirl2004. It's the most incredible, world-shattering, heartbreaking thing I've ever read.
