Fantasy, Fiction, Historical Fiction

Step into the sun-drenched, blood-soaked world of Poictesme, a fictional medieval French county where chivalry and cynicism dance a delicate jig. *Domnei* plunges us into the obsessive quest of Perion de la Forêt, a mercenary leader turned fugitive, whose heart has been irrevocably captured by the ethereal Princess Melicent, daughter of the enigmatic Dom Manuel. As Melicent, now wedded and strangely distant, becomes an almost mythical figure, Perion embarks on a relentless, continent-spanning pursuit, navigating a landscape of warring lords, arcane rituals, and the fickle whims of fortune, all in the name of a love that borders on divine madness. This is a tale of grand gestures and desperate gambits, where the pursuit of an ideal woman dictates the very course of men's lives.
