Summary
His heart is aching because he heard Rin call out a name, softly, almost in adoration, while fighting the chimei. A name that spells hero-worship and a charm that Nezha can never hope to compete with.
(Rewrite of Ch. 17 of The Poppy War.)

Summary
Fang Runin is a a 21 year old war-orphan who'd never been able to escape the grasp of her foster mother. In this world, Yin Vaisra had decisively conquered the Nikan Empire years before the events of the novels, establishing a monarchy with him at the helm. After Emperor Vaisra prevented women from attending Sinegard, Rin was left with no choice but to look for another way to escape arranged marriage at the age of 14.
Finding her savior in Tutor Feyrik, she'd been able to make a name for herself as a fighter and to keep her foster mother happy (and rich) enough to keep Rin around.
But everything is about to change as Emperor Vaisra announces The Selection for his now heir to the throne, Yin Nezha. It's an opportunity for women to compete for the prince's hand from across the empire, but Rin vehemently opposes the whole idea.
As fate would have it, she gets thrown into that same world she tried to avoid, her days now filled with civil unrest, secrecy, a strange growing power, and growing feelings for a certain infuriating prince.
