About
The Konreig Empire trembles.
Nobles compete for personal gain. Cults and guilds bleed the populace dry. Mages chase power in relics of ages past. Even the Royal Family strains beneath the weight of their crumbling legacy.
Crown Prince Thaun wears duty like a chain, his bladework masking a soul worn thin by melancholy. His cousin Heizl, the Emperor's bastard niece, wields her own power - and has no patience left for the Court's self-serving hypocrisy.
Beneath the surface, something ancient stirs. Relegated to legend and superstition, an ancient dragon is sought by those who might gain from its awakening. As Heizl and Thaun are pushed deeper into a web of ritual and conspiracy, they must confront betrayal, sacrifice, and the cost of their ambitions. If they fail, their crumbling Empire won't be the only thing to break from its own unrest.
