Voices of Forgotten Birds

Caught in a reckless spell, Cornelia didn’t lose her power—only her battered body can no longer use even a third of what she was given at the start. But fate is kind, and the unlucky witch ends up as a tutor for a poorly gifted baron’s heiress. A good place, light work, and everything in its place. Until the estate is visited by the Empire’s strongest necromancer, who arrives as the heiress’s fiancé. Nothing would be wrong—except that, as the tutor, Cornelia must go with the bride to their new home, where everything is turned upside down. The wedding turns out to be a trick, the necromancer isn’t as terrifying as expected, and then comes the witch’s illness… Is it really incurable?
