This is absolutely phenomenal!!! I was quite surprised how much just Volume 1 covered in terms of both story and relationship. 

I am always obsessed with a Royal/Bodyguard dynamic! Polaris and Yildun deliver everything I love to see in this sort of relationship. They have reasonable feelings and challenges and they talk about things and grow together and they are honestly just the sweetest. I also am compelled by several of the side characters and hope Alcor (Polaris's brother) ends up getting a romance of his own down the road. Also, the magic / worldbuild / star theme fucks So Hard I'm obsessed. 

I am immediately going to go see if I can find any more of this or other stuff by this author in the wilds of the internet. Def going to be one of my favs from our AnimeNYC purchases.
