Once King Nikolai is deposed, Vadik Demidov will be crowned and we will petition—”
“Demidov will be a Fjerdan puppet.”
“What do we care for politics of that kind?”
“You’ll care when they stack Grisha on the pyre.”
“Grisha?”
Aleksander had to work to hide his anger. “Was not the Darkling a Grisha?”
“He was a Saint. There is a difference. What has come over you, Yuri?”
Aleksander smiled, regrouping. “Forgive me. I only meant that we may still find new followers among the Grisha.”
Chernov clapped him on the back. “A worthy goal once the war is over.”
He contemplated tearing Chernov’s arm from its socket.
Sasha has a patience of a goddamn Saint.
“We would need an extraordinarily powerful Fabrikator to bring forth the thornwood the way that Elizaveta did.” The Darkling smiled. “Does this mean you have not mastered all Juris setout to teach you?” Zoya felt the dam containing her rage give way. She lunged toward theDarkling as Nikolai seized her arms to hold her back. “You do not speak his name. Say his name again and I’ll cut the tongue from your mouth and wear it as a brooch.”
… why is Zoya so angry that he speaks about Juris tho. I think if the old lizard would mind, he would say so. They [Sasha and Juris] knew each other most likely for years.
Dark Blood And Light (Pt.1)
(SNEAK PEAK) (Aleksander Morozova/ The Darkling x OC)
Summary: Looking back at the time before the era ‚Sun Summoner‘, to a childhood in an orphanage in Kermazin.
Tags: hurt, childhood, mean adults, food, abuse, fear, nostalgia
W/c: 6.7K
A/n: The first chapter is partly (mostly) written from a narrators point of view. In the following chapters there will probably be paragraphs that are partly written from that point of view as well, but the majority will be from my protagonists kind of views.

Part One: Before the Beginning
During the short warming summertime, you'd most likely find all three of them huddled together under the hot sun, letting the warm summer breeze sway through their hair as they laid, hidden from unwanted guests, in their meadow. Sometimes after they completed the many chores they`d go into the forest hunting or swam in the refreshing cold water of the rivers. However most of their time was spend near the orphanage they grew up in.
The orphanage, as it was known to the children, had been the mansion of Duke Kermazov, an older man who found his passion in providing homeless children with a second chance for a better life.
It would have been unusual to see the tired looking Duke in his old house, considering he'd rather stay in his house in Os Alta. He'd never say much against the children playing behind his old mansion that was now considered an orphanage, thus stopping the housekeeper Ana Kuya from lecturing the three for straying too far away from their home during the summer.
It also happened to be a reason why Alina liked that time of year the most, aside from her favorite flowers being in bloom. She loved that with his arrival, there was no stopping her and her friends to experience a new adventure, that waited them around every corner. Now that Alina was older, she enjoyed looking back onto those precious memories, a time when everything had been far easier for her than it is now.
Coming Sunday, October 17th @ 9pm CEST
“Zoya, do you know why the Darkling lost the civil war? How Alina stopped him?”
Zoya pinched the bridge of her nose. “No. I wish I did.”
“Because he always fought alone. He let his power isolate him.”
I’m sorry - HE let HIS POWER isolate him?????
no no no no no, did we forget everything we’ve learned about Aleksander? AGAIN? ARE THERE SOME GROUPS OF MEN IN BLACK ROAMING AROUND RAVKA, JUST CLICKING PEOPLES MEMORIES AWAY????
He was alone, because everyone he let close betrayed him.
Baghra was his abusive, manipulative mother who didn’t give two shits about anyone but herself.
Alina, trusting the word of Baghra, deserted her post and betrayed Aleksander, nearly causing the doom of all Ravka.
Zoya and Genya are also deserters, and betrayed their General.
He couldn’t exactly say ‘hi so I am 500+ years old, I made the Fold when I had a mental breakdown, I’m also a Morozova u know, like the Ilya, Baghra is too, we’re amplifiers, like super powerful ones, and yeah I am super powerful but don’t be scared, I trust you will not give this very sensitive info to any of my enemies haha’ COULD HE?
Foreword
Dark Blood and Light Masterlist
Hello everybody out there, I am so happy, that YOU found my story!
Unfortunately I am not that great with writing forewords, mostly because I believe the majority of you won't even read through this small paragraph. Nevertheless I still want to write one, since I want to mention a few things beforehand that are necessary in consideration of this story.
If your not interested to read this, then just skip this chapter, but do not say I didn't warn you!
As you might have already read on my cover, this story is a fanfiction about the „Shadow and Bone- Series" from Leigh Bardugo. But this story purely revolves around the book-series and not the tv-series. Personally I have watched the tv-series, but I have read the books first and want to make this as accurate as possible. So if you were hoping to see Kaz Brekker or any other six of crows character I am sorry to disappoint you. Luckily I have decided to write a fanfiction about the six of crows series as well, which will come out soon enough!
After the first book I immediately fell in love with the darkling and (since I am kind of a fangirl myself) I looked up for stories for this amazing (morally grey) character. Instantly I noticed that even though he seems to be a favourite, there still weren't a lot of stories about him. That's why I decided why not write my own series with a love story for one of my favourite characters!
Now to the important stuff: English is not my native language, which means I haven't read the books in english either. Moreover with English not being my native language there are bound to be grammar, spelling and orthography mistakes. I try not to make as many and I promise I control my texts beforehand, but there can always be typos, they happen to everyone and apparently they just seem to love me very much. If you happen to notice some, please inform me of them so I can correct them, but please do so in a friendly polite way. Another thing with me not having read the English version, there might be some dialogs which will sound different than in the books, since I will be translating them from German to English. Please forgive me for that!
Since I am still young (17) and I still go to school, I am going to be pretty busy throughout the year. That is why I want to inform you beforehand,that I will probably update irregular and depending on how much time I have, it could take a long while till my next update for this story.
If you want you will also be able to find this story on wattpad under graceful_bumblebee (in a few days I will update the same post I uploaded here).
I only own my protagonist and I hope you can give her a chance!
Now I have talked far enough! Enjoy the story which will begin in the next few chapters.
Just out of interest, the ones who read all my blabbering could write a „🩸" in the comments.
Have fun reading!
