Legions of soldiers fought... killed.
Battle horns blared in the air.
Screeching cries of humans and animals alike.
Deafening roars of two dragons stopped the blood-thirst. Silence rippled through the battle. Limbs of men froze, their eyes widened as the scene unfolded.
Two dragon riders faced each other, as shadows danced wildly on their face.
Two pairs of golden eyes, one etched with hate and another filled with longing.
Fire and Ice stood both guard, as air and earth paved path for them.
Both so different, yet so alike.
Blood relations lost in the haziness of hatred. Memories long-forgotten.
Both dragons charged, the moment of silence bygone.
And the Great Battle was fought, yet again.
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
The rivalries of the Great Battle are reborn, causing chaos in the kingdoms after centuries of the Great Battle.
Amber Talen joins the elite group of sword fighters known as the Sword Wielders, violating her father's orders. Her vivid dreams of an emerald dragon confuse her for she was not a Dragon Rider, but a Sword Wielder with skills of no match of a Rider's. She travels to the Academy of Dragons, to train to be the protector of the Dragon Riders.
Amid war, unbearable truths face her, while she has to face the crown princess of Aramandele. The Princess of Darkness.

She is a monster, a nightmare, a killer, who dreams of an ancient battlefield and a different, brutal world where stars fall and dark blood stains the earth. Kye Merran is an Ember, one who wields fire magic. When a childhood friend shows up at his house with a strange girl who is bleeding black blood, he knows that he's getting into something he definitely shouldn't. Especially when the Dark King of Rurik, who may have much more to him than it seems, is looking to conquer another kingdom or two, preferably with a powerful, dark queen at his side. But Kye can't seem to stay away from the mysterious girl with the blood of Darkness. And Val can't stay away from Kye either, no matter how much she claims that she hates him. As Val, Kye, and their friends race to stop the Dark King and his approaching army, what they don't realize is that they are playing a part in an ancient, deadly game, a game between the light and the dark, one years in the making. But it is a game which neither of them can win, for their fates have already been determined by the desperate Gods, written in blood among the stars.

MYTHIC LEGENDS: FLAME AND EMPIRE
The war storms at the Frontier... The gods are broken. The empire is burning. And the end has already begun. A warrior with no past unleashes power no mortal should wield. A young ruler clings to a dying crown as his people lose faith. A chaos mage, feared and revered, walks with death in her shadow. Amongst their ranks-two Rifter siblings, wilders of ruin, benders of space and time. Feared. Watched. Leashed by the most powerful. But even under chains, love blooms... and loyalty begins to shift. When the empress falls into a cursed slumber-her unborn child the last ember of prophecy- the empire sends its strongest into the Abyss of Lost Quintessence: A place where even time forgets itself, where silence hungers, and where One of the Roots of the Umbrovyn Tree stands-ancient, cracked, and bleeding memory. Monstrosities roam, daring to strike in daylight. The veils whisper betrayal. Alliances splinter. Some stand frozen, unsure of their next move- fearing one wrong step may provoke the wrath of a dominion vast as a world and cruel as the gods who forged it. Old gods stir, craving redemption through ruin. The Royal House fractures beneath betrayal. A founding father, long patient, now bares their intent- to seize the throne by force, by cunning, by wagering all that is. Their House's malice toward the flawed Royal line can no longer be cloaked. Love will test loyalty. Legends will bleed. And in the dying light of Ether-Space- The Aurora must not fall... Or all realities will burn. 🔥
