A young man's odyssey from obscurity to legend, where the weight of a shattered world's hope rests on bonds forged in fire and betrayal. In a land scarred by fallen gods and tyrannical kings, an orphaned farmboy's discovery of a stone that hatches destiny unravels ancient secrets, binding him to a dragon's soul and a legacy older than empires. As shadows of the past claw into the present-hooded hunters, cursed shades, and kingdoms rotting from within he must navigate a labyrinth of loyalties to the storyteller who guards more than tales, the rebels stitching hope from ashes, and the enigmatic heir to a fading magical race whose visions haunt his dreams.
Beneath soaring dragon wings and bloodied battlefields, the story weaves a tapestry of identity, redemption, and the cost of power. From whispered prophecies under starlit trees to cities choking on their own lies, it asks what it means to be heir to a broken world-and whether light can be salvaged from the marrow of ruin. With lyrical prose and relentless momentum, it is a hymn to found family, a elegy for fallen giants, and a thunderous ode to the quiet courage required to mend a fractured age.
