The dragon inside her is done being caged.

Swift-River was a druid commander. Disciplined. Controlled. Certain of her place in the world. Then her bones began to break.

Wings. Horns. A voice that bends minds without her permission. Every form she survives makes her harder to kill.

One man isn't afraid of what she's becoming.

Zirien's magic answers hers in ways neither of them can explain, and the bond between them only pulls tighter each time the world tries to sever it.

The dracolich she helped destroy has returned. The dead walk in thousands. A hidden hand moves in every court of power, and it knows her name.

The dragon is done asking permission.
