An exiled goddess, a rogue dragon, one final confrontation.
The king of Freilso is dead, ending his reign and the vital truce that held Ephraim the Wicked, an ancient dragon intent on conquering a likewise ancient civilization, in line. And now, it seems the kingdom is ripe for the taking.
Until the dragon meets a certain Oriane Kishton, a weak maiden with a bold heart- and a few untold secrets even Ephraim's power cannot unravel.
Will Oriane succeed in her conquest to justify the three envoys and her fallen king? Or will Ephraim devour her before she becomes a force to be reckoned with?

Veiled in Light and Ruin
Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.

In a world shaped by gods, dragons, and mortals, vengeance is the only flame that burns brighter than destiny. Azeroth, a knight clad in dragon-forged armor, roams a war-torn land in search of retribution. His quest is fueled by a grief that shatters worlds-the loss of his wife, Aurelia, the goddess of peace, and their child, both slain by the very creatures who gave him his strength: dragons. As Azeroth hunts these mighty beings, his journey intertwines with powerful foes and enigmatic allies. Among them are Amanis, the majestic Twin Dragon of the Golden Waters; Drazyn, the master of mechanics with his army of constructs; and Aquilon, a pale knight shrouded in mystery. Each encounter brings Azeroth closer to uncovering truths that could either redeem or destroy him. Beneath his helmet lies a man haunted by love, fury, and sacrifice. Beneath the skies, a conflict brews that could reshape existence itself. Will Azeroth's vengeance consume him, or will the knight rise above his torment to forge a path beyond revenge? Dive into a tale of valor, betrayal, and the unyielding will to endure.

Rise of Fire: Dragons Reborn [COMPLETED]
The world had long since forgotten the age of dragons, those creatures that had once ruled the skies as gods had long since disappeared after the conclusion of the Great Demon Wars. Dragons became nothing more than a fading legend, a story to tell children at bedtime. But the gods could not let the dragons die, for they were the last defense against the demon armies and the dark god Vekkar. Talia had been born and raised in a world of darkness acting as an agent of Hephatus, goddess of assassins and death. She knew only a life of killing, sometimes for justice, sometimes for honor, always for money. Her morals were opaque at best. But when she's deployed to the city of Arboros she finds herself thrust into a world of political games, opposing powers, and constant threat. Nowhere was safe even for her. Her goals became muddied, and then lost altogether when she meets the Dwarven Prince. Bromyr had spent the last five years of his life chasing ghosts, desperate to find the lost dragon eggs. His people thought him crazy, his father stripped him of his titles, but he never gave up. Eventually his effort bore fruit and he hastily made way to return to his homeland only to get caught up in the city of Arboros. It was there that he met an intriguing half-giant, a woman who ignited a fire everywhere she went. In the end she was the one who inadvertently brought about the new age of dragons. What could go wrong when an ill tempered assassin becomes the first dragon rider of a new age? ***Cover made by annie1loves1you***Complete
The Viper ONC 2020
(ONC round two qualifier!) Once upon a time. . . There was a kingdom in the midst of a war. As troops were slain mercilessly, the king turned to the gods and prayed for a blessing. Thus, the dragon goddess, Tiamat, answered. She lent her aid to the kingdom in return for a hundred souls to become her offspring. The king, in a frenzy, accepted her offer without acknowledging the weight of his decision. When the kingdom was victorious, the king decided to go back on his word. The cost was one-hundred men too many; he refused to take that many lives. Furious, Tiamat swore to the king that when she had enough power, she would cause such devastation in the kingdom the king's legacy would be nothing but a story. Her power was depleted, but her fury was unlimited. It took the vengeful goddess a thousand years to gather the strength to deliver her child into the world. This child would carry the soul of a dragon that would slowly lose its sanity until it caused chaos throughout the world; the world the king had sworn to protect. There would be only one way to stop the progression of the mania before the world plummets into disarray. Yet, that is only for the dragon to know and the world to ponder. --- Cover by: 3uttdog Book One of the Dragon Secrets duologyComplete
