Summary

We finally reached the top. A desolate rooftop emerged before us, weathered stone cracking underfoot, blanketed in moss and glittering shards from long-collapsed rose windows. The wind whispered through our hair, carrying winter's bite and the damp kiss of fog. Edging toward the corroded iron railing, the city unveiled itself below. Sickly green and bruised purple neon lights flickered like dying fireflies in the darkness, illuminating serpentine alleyways and rust-eaten bridges spanning bottomless crevices. Phantom-green smoke coiled from chimneys, clotting into low-hanging clouds between buildings. The city's breath washed over me, oxidized metal, coal dust and the vinegary sting of decay. From this height, gazing at the endless vista, I felt infinitesimal against the immensity of it all. Yet at the same time, I felt strangely free and at peace, as though standing atop the summit of another world. Every flickering light, every moving shadow winding through those labyrinthine streets, was but a tiny fragment in the grand mosaic of existence. What tales, I mused, were being lived behind those glowing panes? What dreams nursed, what griefs buried, what truths hidden in the night?

Prologue

For decades, the South and North have been at war, tearing apart a once-united world. Their struggle feels like an old legend, lost to time. The dragons, once proud rulers of the land, now suffer in misery.

Liaya, a lone wolf lost in the flames of war. Cyrus, a dragon shunned by his own kind. Both alone, they find an unexpected bond in each other.

As they travel through the chaos, secrets begin to unravel. And among all the paths fate could take, she is the one who must uncover the forgotten past and bring back the light of peace.
