Weeks after the darklings death Alina has become hopeful that he faked his death. She has left everyone she had once believed to love in search for the man she had fallen for and nothing will stop her. Not even death as it's a constant shadow trying to take hold of her with every step she takes. Alina will do anything to find the man she loves no matter what will happen in the end.

What if Nikolai Lantsov had a partner throughout his adventure to accompany him. Dig in to find out. It contain spoiler for the books- seige and storm , ruin and rising. I do not own any character except Zarya Kozlova. Based on the book set as I thought it contain more scene with potential.

My own take on Ruin & Rising ending. Characters and story is Leigh Bardugo's property.

Blood is thicker than water. For some, this is a truth that can never be overcome. Yet nothing is infallible when burdened by unimaginable hardship. Her whole life Svetlana Starkov has only had one desire: protect her twin sister Alina. Similar in many ways, they have always shared everything. Yet, Svetlana has one secret that she hides even from herself. A power has buzzed through her veins since the moment she first learned that the lights in the sky were called stars. In order to make Alina happy, Svetlana has ignored the spark for years. However, when their regiment is attacked while traveling through the Fold she is forced to release the power within. Golden rays of the sun and silver-blue starlight come to their aid. The people of Ravka have waited for ages for the Sun Summoner but no one knows what to make of Svetlana's unique abilities. However, she herself is more concerned about protecting her sister and fighting the connection she feels to the man who changed everything. Svetlana has always lived by the saying that blood is thicker than water, nothing has made her waiver and nothing ever will. Or will it? [OC- Svetlana Starkov/The Darkling]

Audhilda Helvig is a stranger in every sense. Fjerdan by birth, Grisha by power, a fighter shaped by war yet softened by something she cannot name. In Ravka, where magic is feared and loyalty bleeds red, she is an enigma-too foreign to be trusted, too powerful to be ignored. When she proposes a unit that unites both Grisha and ot'kazat'sya, it sends ripples through palace walls and into the heart of a fragile court. Some call her reckless. Others call her dangerous. The king calls her brave. But none truly see her-what she's survived, what she's risking, or what secrets she carries beneath the scars. In halls laced with whispers and alliances sharp as knives, Audhilda must navigate a kingdom at war with itself, where even small acts of unity are seen as treason, and trust is a currency too easily spent. Eyes follow her. Power stirs. And somewhere between duty and defiance, between firelight glances and unspoken truths, something begins to kindle-a hope, perhaps. Or something far more perilous. She never wanted a crown. Only a place to stand. And maybe... someone willing to stand beside her. Warnings: Non-canon. No spoilers of King of Scars or Rule of Wolves. Does not follow the official timeline of the books. The story is set after the end of the Shadow and Bone trilogy, when Ravka is rebuilding itself after the war. The story may contain things that do not align with the later books.

[ON HOLD] As the years pass, Alina understands the Darkling more and more- and begins to regret killing him. When the last of the otkazat'sya summoners die, her power slowly begins to return to her. Then, she receives a message- Aleksander, her Aleksander, may not be dead after all. [POST- RUIN AND RISING]

'While Astra was blaming everyone around her, there was only one person responsible. Behind all those lies, behind all those illusions, there was not a person but a monster. From revenge for her parents to knowing the truth. 《 The path towards that was horrible, the truth at the end was the worst. 》 《 The truth about herself was something no one expected, except the ones who were already silenced. 》 What was there for her if not the •vengeance•? What was there for her if not playing the •hero•? What was there for her now she knew •the truth•?' --------------------------------------------------------- It's a slowburn x enemies to 'lovers' x knife to throat trope (soft Smut starts in Chapter 10) This story is written in third person, mostly following the story of Astra Éowyn. The story takes place before Alina Starkov's time. --------------------------------------------------------- All credits for the shadow and bone world to Leigh Bardugo, she owns The Darkling and the world of Grishaverse. --------------------------------------------------------- https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2euZjhlywWjaoNt0rx3tyv?si=0f5a9f9e40e34eb6 link for the playlist inspired by this fan fiction ↑ {Started 28/04-???}

A childhood friend. A war. A soul of sunlight. All of them are lost. As Alina is sinking in grief, her friends are trying to stay united, making plans of dethroning the Darkling, who now rules Ravka. The sun summoner has to resist giving into the shadow summoner's will, but how long will she be able to put on a show, as her feelings are starting to fade into numbness? And how easy can it be to kill the one who's standing beside you on a throne, when power has never felt so good? Alina may find out the answer when shadows have already taken over her heart. (Basically Mal dies, Alina turns dark and lives with the Darkling at the Grand Palace. Her friends are trying to kill him. Enjoy :) ◆The grisha world and characters were created by Leigh Bardugo. ◆Cover art by me

~ A Grisha Fanfic ~ Where there is light, there will always be darkness. It has been five years since the battle on the Fold, when Alina had done what she thought was right. The only problem was that she had failed. The Darkling had survived their battle on the Fold, and was now readying his forces for yet another war. For the second time Alina will be faced with war, but this time she has no idea what is coming. She doesn't know that he's alive and coming for her. She doesn't know that darkness never dies. Meanwhile, Nikolai Lantsov sits atop the Ravkan throne, queenless. He is a patient man, but it is an impatient country. He needs his people's support and to get that he needs Alina. Though she still grieves Mal, can she move past her lost love and find sanctuary in another? Can she marry Nikolai and be happy? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain; like calls to like. ~~~ This story is in no way perfect and there may be some slightly inaccurate parts, but I promise I'm a devoted fan so you can trust that I'll work my hardest to make it acceptable. Note, I don't own any of these fabulous characters, they were all created and are owned by the amazing Leigh Bardugo! *Cover picture belongs to a very talented artist, not me

I asked desperately. "Why? Why do you need me?" "Because without you, I have nothing!" he boomed. The truth of his words rang through my ears like a record player. He did have nothing. The Darkling could lead armies, rule over Ravka, have all the riches in the country, yet he was still alone. I struggled to find words. Then, finally I came to my senses. He deserves to be alone, I told myself. He has hurt people. Taken hundreds of lives... If that was all true, then why was there still a dagger twisting in my chest?
