Through Blood and Flame

Born in flame. Tempered in blood.

Efiria is engulfed in war. Century after century, the lords of the south feud among themselves, and only the dragon guard, warriors of a long-gone empire, keep peace from a bloody tide.

Keylen Briar prepares for the Trial of Courage and Skill, despite the longing for his tragically deceased brother. But his life changes when three strangers appear in his hometown. They are bound by a secret that death follows closely behind and that will change Keylen's life. There is no prophecy. His arrival was not foretold.
And Keylen, like any other person, bleeds. He will go through the flames of war and lose everyone he loves.
