About This Book

Ren grips the reins of his magical horse as they race through the swirling mists of Ki:mera. Dragons roar overhead, their shadows stretching across the land, but something darker looms—a shadow that even the fiercest dragons fear. Suddenly, a chilling roar shakes the ground beneath them—what could it be?
