Power To Yield
sci-fi/fantasy novella
a student doing a research project looks into a figure instrumental in building their new independent society, and becomes fascinated with him
when she meets him and learns more about the consensual ritual torture he engages in, which is necessary (though ethically complicated) due to the magic planet they live on
both are aroace and neurodivergent
free online (in audio too), also now published in an anthology (which is the cover I’m using here - I haven’t read the full anthology yet)
