A wakeful dragon stirs beneath the waking world, and Lyra finds herself bound to a creature she cannot outpace. In a city where memories cling like fog to stone, she negotiates fragile alliances, tests of loyalty, and a lineage of quiet power she never asked to inherit. Each choice she makes ripples through a chain of loyalties—her sister’s safety, the dragon’s hunger, and a love that refuses to be hushed by duty. As old pacts break and new ones scorch the air, Lyra must decide what she is willing to destroy to save what she loves—and what she is willing to forgive in herself when mercy finally comes due.
