or, Deux Navires Passant dans la Nuit
If you wake up in a new world, with only your memories of home to guide you, you have to trust the first people you meet.
The first people Leah meets seem to know her - but not *her*. Leah is thrust into a fighter's role that does not quite suit her, and those who 'rescued' her do their best to help her fit in. They hint at a world that Leah can only vaguely understand without serious research and exploration, but how to do that research, when everyone believes her to be a local of this place, and too many questions might draw unwanted attention?
And what about home?
The more Leah learns about this world, the less she believes that she woke up on the right side of the bed - or more accurately, on the right side of the conflict. With magic being strictly regulated in her current "home," maybe it's time to uproot and look for a new set of allies...

So I will be honest, the cover didn't grab me, and I glossed past this story several times because of it. Boy howdy do I gotta stop doing that. I think most of my favourite stories have less than stellar covers. This story is amazing, thoughtful and well written. Each character depicted is colourfully painted in their personalities, and each event is gripping and interesting. I don't think I was bored a single moment reading this, not a word was wasted, not a chapter pointless. This easily makes my top 5 for stories on SH so far. It is well worth the read. Just sad the author doesn't have more works for me to voraciously consume.

The first part of the story was slightly frustrating to sit through for me mostly because I constantly felt like the protagonist kept making dumb choices but that was probably just me considering everything from an observer/reader's perspective not the actual character's point of view. Other than that this story was nice and if you also find the first half frustrating like me try sticking it out a bit longer since I feel it gets better. Also
