The Empire of Gehenna took so much from him - his family, his home, his world as he knew it. His people, downtrodden and grieving, were ostracized by their supposed friend. The one skill he’s supposed to have as their Seer? Useless. Iyani needed to be better. He had to remain the one hopeful light within the darkness of grief and betrayal, or they would lose themselves to the hate the world forced on them - become the enemy they were being treated as. When the Empire attacked their ally, he didn’t hesitate to run to their aid. He knew - despite what everyone else thought - that whatever bad blood between them shouldn’t matter in the face of a common enemy. Faced with friend and foe alike, he, the prince, the prince’s guard, and a random guy - who was in the wrong place at the wrong time - learn that the legends of the lands are true. The four of them now have to figure out how to keep the power of the dragons away from the Empire and its shadowed puppet master. Hopefully while not doing the enemy a favor and killing each other in the process.
