The cost for Solariann's magic is her sanity. 

As a Sympathe, Solariann can detect and read other people's emotions. When she comes into contact with one of the Touched--wraiths who devour souls--her magic awakens into something powerful, giving her abilities she's never seen or heard of before. But it's so powerful it drives her to madness. Driven by a delusion that she will be Queen and leader of the Sympathes, Solariann infiltrates a Hatching and Bonds with a dragon, sparking a chain of events that will change her life forever. 

The crown takes her into custody and learns her magic makes her invulnerable to the Touched. Since her madness makes her a danger to herself and others, they give her one month to defeat the Touched and prove her mental stability to become a fully fledged Dragon Rider. The cost of failure is her life. 

To help in her task, the Council of Five assigns her a trainer to become a Rider: Lord Kiernan, the bastard son of the Dragon King with ambitions to take over the throne despite his illegitimacy. And to ensure her madness doesn't hurt anyone else, they also assign her a guard: Dariann, an arrogant Rider with a mysterious background and past. While they search for a way to destroy the Touched, Solariann finds her heart torn between the two very different young men. 

Their research reveals a menacing plot decades in the making, starting with their ancient ancestors and a God of Destruction. To make matters worse, Solariann's bloodline may trace back to an ancient, noble lineage tied to prophecy. Now, the Touched are tied to the very source of magic within their country, Salachar, and if they don't find a way to heal the source of magic, an army of the Touched will decimate the world.

[PLEASE NOTE: this story will undergo revisions once it's finished.]

However, the novel she read is not the reality she believed. ______ I tried on another, a red one this time. I twirl in its large skirt. "This one matches your eyes," I say as I spin. "This one too." I stop, putting my hands on my hips. "Are you going to order all of them?" "If I want to, yes, I will." He doesn't budge. I sigh, sitting next to him. "You know that you don't have to do this. I can go buy my own dresses." "I know, but I want to see you wear dresses that I chose. Besides, is it so wrong to want to spend time with you?" ______ Note: This is entirely my work. I want to see if I'm able to write something without a plot set up for me. I hope you like it!
