Birth of the Dragon Lords

A goddess’s gift will ignite a legacy. For the first time in her eternal existence, Aikaterina knew she was dying—and she was at peace. Born alongside the universe itself, she had witnessed the birth and death of galaxies, watched stars rise and fall, and marveled as barren worlds blossomed with life. But there was one rule she and her kind had agreed to never break: they were there to observe, but never interfere. No matter how precious the life, no matter how deep the connection.

Until now.

On a distant world, in a desperate moment, Aikaterina makes a choice that will echo through time. In an act of compassion, she gives her blood, her essence, and her love—and alters the fate of a dying people.

And from that sacrifice, the Dragon Lords of Valdier are born.

Discover the origin of Valdier’s most powerful legacy… and the Goddess who broke the rules to protect them.
