    Summary

    “What would you give for them?”

    Furina could have laughed right then and there. “Isn’t it obvious? Everything.” She blinked, as though only now realizing the weight of her words, “I would give everything, a million times over.”

    “You, Furina de Fontaine, are the most fascinating human being I have ever met. No violence will reach the shores of Fontaine. Not from my forces, at least.”

    Furina sagged with relief. The stress she had been holding in her body since first being called to Neuvilette’s office flowed out of her like an overfilled water balloon that had finally popped.

    “There is, of course, one condition for my protection…”

    “Anything,” Furina blurted, her heart racing like a million pitter-patters.

    “You will marry Arlecchino.”

    The Knave, an ever-immovable force who had been oh-so silent for the last hour, promptly choked on her tea.

    Or: When the Tsaritsa's war against the world threatens the shores of Fontaine, Furina is forced back into diplomatic matters, tasked with keeping the Fatui away from Fontaine. All goes well until the Tsaritsa demands that Furina and Arlecchino marry in exchange for Fontaine's safety. Frankly, Furina's life must be some sort of cosmic joke.
