Departing the mystical sanctuary of Fafnir Isle with only a deceptively small dragon companion named Sunny in his pack, Adrian arrives in the capital determined to unmask the shadowy assassin who slaughtered his grandfather. Expecting an honored guest, the aristocratic Ashford clan instead treats Adrian with open disdain, breaking his childhood betrothal and mocking him as a beggar who feeds stray lizards.
Rather than taking offense, Adrian conceals his god-tier mastery over mythical wyrms, quietly letting the corrupt Ashfords walk into their own financial and political traps. As ancient curses begin to awaken across the realm and rival guilds deploy dark magic to silence him, Adrian unleashes Sunny's apocalyptic golden dragon form to obliterate his foes and avenge his ancestral bloodline.
