In a world ruled by mythical creatures, everything is perfect. Or so it seemed. Mythical creatures are turning up dead, sacred sites disturbed or destroyed, and crime rate is at an all time high. No one in any of the Realms can figure out what is going on. Each Realm suspects their own villain. The most powerful Realm, the Dragon Realm heads the investigation. But things only become stranger when the young Dragon representative, Shadow, makes a startling discovery: They have an unlikely and even rarer ally than previously thought. He catches a glimpse of a Phoenix, a race thought to be extinct, rising out of a smoldering ruin of an enemy hideout. It makes him question everything. But the biggest question of all: Is the Phoenix really an ally, or just another faceless threat to strike them all down?

Astraeus, a baby dragon, escapes from his old coven and stumbles upon a little shop that he spends months stealing from and hiding in to survive. The witch and familiars who live there are... strange. They know he takes from them but don't put up different wards, don't do things that could hurt him. They know that he has a hide out in the aster tree, that he lives close-instead of getting rid of him and forcing him to move, they visit him. Talk to him, leave him things, they're kind. Different. Stranger than any other witch or familiar he's ever met. Stray is not used to things that don't hurt. The gentleness is terrifying. He'd rather stay away from them than learn why they don't have sharp tongues or bruised knuckles. However, on the night of a bad storm, he gets trapped inside of the shop, trapped with kind strangers. After getting caught, he discovers another dragon. He learns that life is not meant to be painful. He learns that he can be loved. He's allowed to want things with them. To eat, to not fear the cold, to live instead of survive. Everything changes and Stray is determined to make them his hoard, to make it complete.
