From Ruin to Renewal

Set a decade before Aegon's Conquest , this story follows Jaenyx Belaerys , the last scion of one of Valyria’s oldest and most storied dragonlord families. With the Freehold in ruins and their colony in the Basilisk Isles no longer safe, Jaenyx leads a desperate exodus of survivors—warriors, scholars, artisans, and healers—toward the distant shores of Westeros. Their goal: Dragonstone, the ancestral seat of the Targaryens, where they hope to find refuge and forge a new future.



Haunted by the weight of his heritage and the looming specter of extinction, Jaenyx embarks on a perilous journey to secure peace with the Targaryens. Riding atop his dragon, Cloudwynd , he arrives at Dragonstone alone, hoping to prevent conflict and ensure the survival of his people. What awaits him is more than just political negotiation; it is a chance for friendship, love, and renewal amidst the ashes of Valyria’s fall.
