Blood & Flame prologue:The Dragon Emperor Dies

Three hundred years ago, dragons gave mankind the power to rule. For centuries, the Blood & Flame Empire has been held together by dragon blood, ancient oaths, and the fear of fire. But when the last Dragon Emperor dies without leaving a clear path to the throne, the entire continent begins to fracture. Kael Solfyr, the emperor’s eldest son, believes he must inherit the Dragonbone Throne and protect his father’s legacy. But in the frozen North, Elyna Noctar refuses to kneel. She was not always his enemy. Ten years ago, Kael and Elyna were bound by a political betrothal meant to unite the royal house and the powerful northern warlords. They trained together, studied dragon law together, and once stood close enough to imagine a future on the same side. Then Elyna’s brother was accused of treason and executed in the royal capital. House Solfyr called him a traitor. Elyna called it murder. And Kael, standing beside his father that day, said nothing. Now the Dragon Emperor is dead, Kael is preparing to wear the crown, and Elyna returns with a black dragon, an army, and ten years of hatred. But the emperor’s death is not as simple as the court claims. His final words speak of a curse. His blood turns black-red before he dies. The Dragonbone Throne glows with a strange crimson light. And while the great houses fight over the crown, something older and darker begins to move beneath the empire. Kael thinks he is fighting to preserve his father’s kingdom. Elyna thinks she is fighting to avenge her family. But someone wants this war to happen. And by the time they realize the truth, blood and fire may have already awakened something that should have stayed buried.
