Shade Arjuun

When the time has turned ripe, Ginger has to leave his home in the Wild.

 A young, awakening dragon like himself, even as a halfling, can’t remain in a world where he will eventually be seen as a monster, after all.

Thus, with the help of an infamous Shaman, Ginger is transported to Ravi, a land where dragons reign supreme, lording over land, law, and the lesser races that fill the continent.

To learn from scratch what his fellow dragons can do – which is far, far more than flying, breathing fire, and compelling with mere sight – Ginger starts his adventure at a prestigious Institute for dragonlings of all kinds.

Ah, the typical adventure countless youngsters like him in other inspired Novel Verses have endured.

But not quite.

For Ginger isn’t your typical dragon, and neither is he a common scrub. Of course, he is not.

The rule of dragons, the long Tallies of time they have ruled... may be coming to an end.

Is he tied to such an event of the ages?

Disclaimer:

This novel is a slow burn. If these kinds of stories bother you, then you probably won't like it, though I hope you try it before concluding.

The story also follows a 7:3 ratio between school events and outside adventures respectively, both of which center around Slice of Life, Action, 'Magic', Drama, and several other subgenres.

And yes, there is Slice of Life.

At least reach chapter 16 before opting out.

The Odd Dragon Out: Reckoning of the Cinder-Born

"Wow Ginger, you really went through it," Reiss said after his friend finished his narration, which took until the pair that had gone into the chamber came out, wounded and soulless like most others that came before. 


"Yeah," Ginger said, his eyes hiding a twinge of guilt. 


While Reiss mulled over everything he had said, everything except the bit about how he suddenly felt his body grow heavy, how his stok suddenly began overflowing with Kardia, how his eyes started seeing things that they shouldn't, Ginger deliberated. 


He and Reiss shared a lot, but he didn't share his deepest secret with his friend. The only person in Ravi who knew said secret was Ira. 


Speaking of the gatekeeper, Ginger had shared with Reiss what he and Ira had talked about right after the Second Burning. All except his dual-soul nature and his past, that was. 


And once again, Ginger was withholding information, and he didn't know if that was for the best or not.
