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.

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.

THE WEIGHT OF CROWNS
In a world where fantasy reigns and governs humanity, nothing is ever guaranteed. Life is a series of trials - every step taken could cost a life. In a place where danger lurks in every shadow, no one is safe under the watchful eye of the Demon Lord who rules over the beings of the Empyreal City. Uross Kye Raeshon, the infamous ruler and self-proclaimed Emperor, was known across the lands as the man who slaughtered the entire Dameon Clan in his quest for stability and power. He forcibly seized the throne from the former king - his closest friend. Showing no mercy to those loyal to the previous dynasty, Emperor Raeshon spread terror across the nation, wielding his killing spear as he hunted the descendants of a mysterious clan said to possess the power to raise a fallen dynasty from ashes. No one knew if such a clan ever existed, where they might be hiding, or why the Emperor was so desperate to find them. Whispers spread that he sought to erase the clan's existence - to ensure that no remnants of the Dameon Dynasty could ever rise again. But fate has a cruel sense of irony. For a prophecy once spoken during the fall of the Dameon Dynasty begins to stir once more...
