Writing overly emotional dystopian fiction about lonely men trying to not be that lonely anymore

Through the Mist blends fantasy, horror, and slow-burn MM romance in a war-torn world where magic is both feared and essential—a story of control, punishment, and the quiet tenderness born in darkness.
A stronghold stands at the edge of a vast, unnatural fog—where monsters wait, and electricity fails. When a new defense system is installed, tensions rise between the soldiers bound by obedience and the magician tasked with change. Discipline and need clash, shaped by psychological strain, brutal combat, and reluctant intimacy.
As the mist creeps closer, two men must navigate the blurred lines between power, trust, and survival.
