I Dare Not Speak All the Words of Love

I've never been able to hold on to the people I want to keep. I thought it was because I was weak, but now that I've grown strong, why have you disappeared again? I want so badly to save you, but I can't.

A faux mutual-salvation story.

An alternate ancient setting with gender equality. Two equally formidable leads: a female general and a spy.

A bittersweet ending, beware. Actually, it's pretty sweet.
