In 1191, as the Crusades tear the world apart in the name of faith, a knight named Sir Alaric of Caerwyn is summoned to war and forced to leave behind the only thing that has ever made him human - his wife, Victoria.
Across eight harrowing days on the battlefield, Alaric writes letters he is not sure will ever be read. In them, he speaks of blood and belief, of men broken by duty, and of a love strong enough to outlast distance, silence, and fear. Victoria does not reply - not because she does not love him, but because the world moves slower than war.
When her words finally reach him, they arrive too late to change fate.
Butterflies: Letters to Victoria is a haunting epistolary poem that blends historical fiction, romance, and tragedy into a cinematic reading experience. Told entirely through letters, the story unfolds with aching intimacy - where hope lingers in silence, love survives absence, and timing becomes the most merciless force of all.
As the final truth emerges, what remains is not only grief, but the devastating beauty of a love that refused to disappear - even after the war claimed everything else.
Perfect for readers who love lyrical storytelling, historical romance, and emotionally resonant narratives, this is a story that reads like a film and lingers like memory.
