The story follows the war between the Empire of Lassania and the Dalvani Magocracy. The empire is governed by a matriarchal royal family of dragonmaidens, the Vashtal, that uses its taming of dread unwinged dragons to expand westwards over the Verdant Greens and Everguardian Mountains and meet with the desperate defenses of the Dalvani, a chaste-based mage society that presents an enormous resilience in being conquered.
Two threads are followed in this war: General Vaila Vashtal and her dragon Melthrax advancing with their Legions, facing trials of battle and the dangers of dragon Taming, against the mage Alduin, a young and afraid mage who is taken to the warfront because of his predilections for a specific capacity in magicking.
To the east, in the capital city of the Lassania Empire, Valsrest, an orphan by the name Scrappy discovers more about her ancestrality while becoming a capable thief. She will cross paths with the slave Ominira Odwá, an Indwomani from conquered lands who is unsure about his fate and purpose under the hands of the Empire, seeking his freedom and revenge.

Nina's Discipline
Second in the Paladins Series: For the last decade or more Prince Erec has been trained by the head paladin, Nina Benoite, in the arts of combat, war, and strategy. He entrusted to her his education, his morals, and his heart. He has loved her since the day that they met, but no longer can he stand to watch her from afar. He wants to prove himself worthy of her affection in turn, and the current war with Gascony seems the perfect opportunity to do so. Though not raised in Vasconia, Nina is loyal to her king and cause. When the prince is captured as a prisoner of war on the battlefield, she will brave the foreign kingdom and whatever dangers it may hold for a paladin like herself to rescue him. Though, she doesn't know if she can brave the longing stares and sweet words her prince has begun giving her nearly so easily. War wages on between the ancient kingdoms of Vasconia and Gascony, two ideologies clashing because of a feud between the ruling classes. Erec thinks little of his enemy's cultures and beliefs. Nina, however, wishes she could have such distance as they struggle to cross this kingdom that is not so foreign to her in an effort to return the crown prince home.Complete![Visions of Dragons [PREVIEW]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/213460681-256-k959162.jpg)
