In a world on the brink of legend, Megan's life is irrevocably altered when her father, a noble and selfless warrior, perishes in the War of the Icemen, a brutal conflict that has ravaged the land. Though Megan was too young to recall his face, tales of his bravery and sacrifice are woven into her upbringing, his memory preserved only by a single, cherished photograph. As Megan grows, the weight of her father's legacy becomes too much to bear, driving her into a life of recklessness and despair. A near-fatal accident leaves her in a coma for six months, and when she awakens, she finds her world in ruins-her mother has vanished, committed to a mental institution, and her family ties are all but severed. Seeking refuge, Megan returns to the lighthouse by the sea, a place her father once adored, where the waves and winds seem to whisper ancient secrets. There, she learns the true story of her father's death from his closest friend, Richard, who reveals a vision he witnessed on the battlefield. He saw Megan's father's spirit rise from his fallen body and vanish into the ether, a sight they all dismissed as the hallucination of a mind teetering on the edge of death. Yet Richard, ever loyal, has remained by Megan's side, a living reminder of her father's sacrifice. As Megan delves deeper into the mysteries surrounding her father's death, she uncovers hidden truths that stretch beyond the mortal world. The vision Richard saw was not a mere trick of the dying mind but a sign of something far greater-a connection to ancient powers long forgotten but still very much alive. Drawn into a realm where myths walk the earth, Megan must confront her own inner demons and the legacy of a man who may have been more than just a warrior. As the boundaries between the human and the divine blur, she embarks on a perilous journey to uncover the truth of her father's fate and her own destiny, one that could alter the fabric of her world forever.

Darkstalker's face flashed through her mind: the face of a dragon she had yet to meet, but whose face came with a torrent of visions--joy and love and pain and horror, so mixed-up she couldn't untangle it, couldn't even breathe when she thought about it. -Legends: Darkstalker What would the world have been like if Darkstalker hadn't gotten started down his path of darkness? If he hadn't started doing secret spells? Or if Clearsight had just noticed a little faster than she did? Or if the future had just been a little easier to reach? This is the story of two dragons whose futures are entangled far too closely. This is the story of hope and hopelessness, and of how the future is something you can lose. This is a story of how happy endings can fall apart, and how life is never neat. Or easy. This is a story of how happy endings can fall apart, and how to put them back together again. All characters, except my OCs, and the world of Pyrhhia, belong to Tui T. Sutherland. ***USUALLY UPDATES EVERY FRIDAY***
