The Hollow Flames

“They passed it down as mere legend, never knowing it was a memory buried too deep to rise.”



Long before fairy tales were told, the world knew only war. Peace was a word for the weak, and heroes had not yet been imagined.



Amid the bloodshed, a dragon appeared—fire-breathing, scale-bound, and feared by all. He entered humanity’s chaos, neither a savior nor destroyer, and then vanished. His name was never recorded. The histories claim he perished in that forgotten war.



But some say he still walks the earth.



Quisette Chrysafi never believed in those passed-down stories— not really. But something about the nameless dragon from an old folktale draws her in.



The more she searches, the more the pieces begin to shift— and the seams of folktales starts to tear.
