Best Friends


After meeting at the age of 12 while their fathers attended an academic conference in Washington DC, Lily and Illyana became fast friends. This friendship grew as the two maintained contact via email and photos. In those four years they even each visited the other in their own country. When they were sixteen they finally convinced Illyana’s parents to allow her to attend Lily’s preparatory school in Wichita. They lived together with Lily’s father in an apartment during the week but left for Heaven on the weekends. 

Those two years, the summer of their junior year through October of their senior, they were inseparable. Illyana’s engaging flirty demeanor drew Lily out of the reserved shell she was in since her mother’s death. And Lily’s even temper and thoughtfulness curbed Illyana’s zealous lack of caution. 

In Manaed will their friendship be tested, as both realize that the other has a special attachment to Duncan? Though for different reasons, each realizes their need for him, and that the triangle they form could hold the fate of Manaed.
