Soul of a Demon

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

This book is the life story of the last dragon in the seven realms of smoke and ash. It stands as the opening wound that shapes everything to come. The realms can’t simply move forward past the darkness; they move through it because of her. Soul of a Demon isn’t a story where the chosen one triumphs because destiny says so. It’s a story where hope costs something. Where power comes with teeth. Where people don’t survive because they're blessed, but because they refuse to kneel even after they've been broken. Prophecies can be interpreted in a thousand ways; it just depends on the motive of the one writing them down. This story contains dark fantasy elements, violence, and themes of survival and extinction. It is written for readers who crave high-stakes epic fantasy, morally complex conflicts, and villains that are disturbingly fun to hate. Not every survivor becomes a hero. Not every villain remains one.

Prolog


Book: 1 in the Dark Legacy series

Seven realms. Seven dimensions. Seven planets bound by a cosmic anomaly—each occupying the same point in space, yet existing in separate universes.

This rare phenomenon acts as a pivot, linking the realms together. Natural wormholes formed between them, allowing creatures and inhabitants to travel freely across worlds. For a time, peace reigned.

Then came the dragons.

For countless centuries, they ruled over all peoples of the seven realms. Majestic and terrifying, they kept order—but their appetites took a toll on livestock, crops, and sometimes the people themselves.

United in desperation, the realms’ inhabitants drove the dragons back to their own world. The portals were sealed with powerful magic—forever, or so they hoped.

But magic is never absolute.

This is the story of the last dragon—and the prophecy that made her the final hope against the Demon Horde.

The demons hunted down the dragons trapped in their realm. Somehow, three escaped. Of those, one was small but cunning. She narrowly avoided the fate that claimed her companions.

Now, she is alone. Hunted. Fleeing through the realms her kind once ruled—reduced to prey.

Before vanishing under mysterious circumstances, the Oracle of the most powerful wizards’ coven—the very one that exiled the dragons—delivered a final prophecy.


Last Prophecy of the Oracle Zain:

Beware the power of the soulless creator of death.

Only the blood of a dragon holds the key to its defeat and reclaiming what was taken.

Carried in on the wind like a hot ember, a dragon will breathe forth new life as the old ways pass away.

A great war will ensue, no realm will be spared.

Fire will rain from the skies, and the creatures of the realms will have no power over it.

Wielding an ancient force, a new ruler will proclaim victory as all realms bow in supplication.

Darkness will rule into eternity if the demon defeats the dragon.


Can this meek creature stop the power play of the Demon Horde Master? What happens if she can’t?
