Monstrous Beautiful Things

Set in a dark, medieval-inspired world, this gothic sapphic fantasy follows Ediva as she seeks relief from mysterious, painful headaches and encounters the mysterious Vivari, who offer her a cure at a steep cost. Her journey takes her into the Otherworld, a surreal plane filled with wondrous and terrifying beings, where she faces difficult choices about pain, power, and sacrifice. With themes of living with suffering and discovering her own strength, the story weaves a haunting tale of love, monsters, and the struggle for self-worth.
