Long ago, dragons vanished from the world-wiped out for the mind-bending powers they once wielded. Or so everyone believed.
Sumiko Kuronami is living proof that the dragons never truly died. Born half-dragon and half-human, she carries a terrifying power inside her, one that threatens to consume her body and mind. If the dragon takes full control, it won't just destroy Sumiko-it could bring ruin to everything she loves.
To survive, she must obtain a mythical elixir known as The Other Eye, said to sever the dragon's hold on her soul. But the journey is too dangerous for Sumiko in her fragile state. Instead, she sends four trusted companions on a mission to retrieve it:
• Raikou, the determined leader who would give anything to protect his team.
• Ayaka Yuugure, a hotheaded yet kind medic with a painful past and a heart bigger than she admits.
• Kento, a fierce fighter shaped by war and loss.
• Mizuki Kuroshi, a fallen angel haunted by guilt and a need to be perfect, no matter the cost.
Together, they face rival factions, ancient monsters, and impossible challenges. The elixir lies in the hands of Sumiko's mother-a woman thought long dead, with secrets of her own.
But not all of them will make it back.
As blood is spilled and bonds are tested, the team learns the true cost of loyalty, sacrifice, and what it means to fight for someone you love-even when it breaks you.
Will they save Sumiko... or lose themselves trying?
