In a world where magic is dying and kingdoms crumble under the weight of ancient curses, a nameless slave discovers he carries the blood of the last Dragon Emperor. Hunted by the very council that destroyed his lineage, Kael must unlock the forbidden power sealed within his veins before the Shadow Sovereign consumes the remaining realms. But every step toward the throne demands a sacrifice — and the cost of claiming his birthright may be the annihilation of everything he has grown to love.
