Description

In which fate’s strings of the powerless, magicless Kim Junmyeon and the statusless, limitless Lee Jieun not only cross, but weave and tangle into a mess in the form of an unsolvable knot.

Foreword

magic!au. western kingdom themed.
 
It's a completely (well, maybe not, but it feels like it) new genre and challenge for me, but I've been fancying the idea for a bit. I don't want to get too into detail about the plot here in the description, but in short, this story is set in an imaginary time period in a setting that resembles western royalty (kings, queens, dukes, all that jazz). The whole thing was inspired by a short scene in the webtoon "Mima of the Woods."
 
I claim the same thing over and over as I begin new projects here and there, but I really, really hope I'll get to finish this one. It's a treasure. 
 
One more thing: I'm not a fan of asserting copyright and all, but the intention is still there. So please, no plagiarism!
 
P.S. I would beg, maybe kill, for a pretty poster. Hey, anyone in the IU tag still aliveeeeee?

Interesting plot... I'm glad that someone is still doing IU fanfic.

Chapter 2: this made me wonder, what is the year for the first chapter? is it a few months before the coronation? I suppose it was surprising for the princes that the king found another queen

Chapter 1: oh my god i love feudal AU's, they are the bomb! I also really love female ruler!AUs :) there's always something interesting about courtly manners and deception. that being said, i think you already have a really interesting setup here; there's obviously a lot of edge in junmyeon and jieun's relationship, mostly likely from a political cause? i'm curious how exactly succession works in your story since she'll be queen and junmyeon's father is stepping down and they're not related, haha, but i supposed i'll have to wait to find out about that one!
