52 parts Ongoing In a city chained by cruelty and ruled by an empire of fear, two souls fight to survive.
Elias, a boy abandoned to the streets, grows into a weapon forged by hunger, scars, and endless struggle. Known as the Stray, he learns that mercy has no place in a world that seeks only to break him.
Lira, a girl trapped in a golden cage, lives in silence under the shadow of power. Behind silks and walls, she dreams of escape, of freedom, and of a life where her heart is her own.
When their paths cross, love blooms in secret-fragile yet fierce, a flame against the darkness. But the empire does not forgive rebellion. Torn apart by chains, dungeons, and war, Elias and Lira must fight not only for freedom, but for each other.
This is a story of scars and sacrifice, of fire rising from the forgotten, of a stray boy who became a legend, and a caged girl who carried his flame.
Not all love stories end in silence.
Some end in fire.
