No other fantasy manga could ever come close to this. For me personally this is the best of its genre and i hold all the characters very dearly in my heart.
The manhwa isn't quite there yet but the novel is seriously one of the best romance story i've ever read. Every BL couple i've read pales in comparison. The plot and worldbuilding are taken very seriously and the romance are slow and steady and so so so achingly good.
I dont know what i should tell you. This my favorite BL EVER. Like it's literally number 1. I've never been able to definitively choose one for my most favorite, but here it is. It's destroyed my desire to read other BL works and it has phenomenal art and writing. There is nothing like it, and i son't think anything will ever top this for me.
