Adventure

In the empire of Valtheris, dragons are extinct—slain centuries ago after they nearly burned the world to ash. The Dragon Hunts ended with the last wyrm falling from the sky, and with it, the ancient bloodlines thought to carry their power.

Seventeen-year-old Kael Ardyn has lived his entire life in the shadow of that history. A blacksmith’s apprentice in a quiet border village, Kael has always felt different—plagued by strange dreams of fire and wings, his veins burning whenever he touches steel fresh from the forge. When imperial soldiers arrive hunting a rogue sorcerer, Kael’s hidden power awakens in a blaze of dragonfire.

Branded an abomination and hunted by the Crown, Kael is forced to flee into the wilds. Along the way, he discovers the truth: the dragons were never fully destroyed. Their essence survives—reborn in human bloodlines scattered across the empire. And someone in the capital knows it.

As whispers of rebellion stir and ancient forces awaken beneath the mountains, Kael must decide what he truly is—a monster forged by forbidden magic, or the last heir of a legacy powerful enough to reshape the world.

The empire believes dragons are dead.
They are wrong.
