In the world of Serathor, where dragons and mortals share a bond forged by ancient magic, a forgotten darkness stirs. Long ago, the world was shaped from the fractured essence of Primordia, a being of unimaginable power. From its division came the land, the dragons, and the mortals-each imbued with a portion of its magic. But with creation came destruction, and lurking in the shadows of the Null Sea is Vorathos, a malevolent force seeking to return Serathor to chaos. Valira, a young Dragonbound from the once-peaceful kingdom of Veloria, has always been able to feel the bonds between dragons and their riders. As a Soulweaver, her ability to mend or sever these magical connections is both a gift and a curse. But when she uncovers a mysterious Dragonstone and begins to sense the approach of an ancient darkness, she realizes her power holds the key to saving-or destroying-the very balance of Serathor. Unbeknownst to her, Thalrik, a warrior from the frozen kingdom of Arenfal, carries a secret weapon that could tip the scales. The Blade of Sorrow, a relic capable of severing the bond between dragon and rider, is in his hands-though he does not yet know the devastating power it holds. As their paths cross and the Nihil Brotherhood-a dark cult devoted to Vorathos-seeks to awaken the void, Valira and Thalrik must navigate their growing connection, torn between duty, destiny, and the future of their world. With war brewing between the kingdoms and the reawakening of ancient forces, the fate of Serathor rests in the hands of those who hold the shards of Primordia's essence. Will they rise to defend the fragile balance, or will they succumb to the darkness lurking beneath the surface? The dragons of Serathor are stirring. The world is on the brink of chaos. And only the most powerful Dragonbound can stand in the way of ruin.

"I'm going to help you like you've helped me, Genesis." "I haven't done anything..." Her forehead creased with confusion. "You didn't know me before I came here. I was a lot like Romulus; cold, bitter, aimless, until I met you." He tucked another strand of hair behind her right ear as the wind blew through it before pulling her into a tight hug and kissing her forehead. "I've never known warmth like you, Genesis." The urge to kiss her was never as strong as it was in that moment, but Roman knew that the time hadn't yet come. Instead, he closed his eyes and tilted the side of his head onto hers as she clung tightly to his torso, holding her head firmly against his chest.
