About the book: 2023 / Cora grew up in a small village, and it seemed that a quiet, measured life awaited her. But when shamans, the dark servants of the empire, invade its land, no one has any idea what they need and what goals they are pursuing. One day, Cora becomes an involuntary witness to their attack and magic that is capable of drawing out souls. The girl pierces the shaman with a blade and thereby signs her own death warrant. Searching for salvation in the wild lands, Cora encounters a fiery scarlet dragon. All dragons were once enslaved by the king and forced to merge with humans. Flair, the last dragon in Anastillia, is forced into hiding. Now he must work together with Cora to overthrow the empire... or each of them will face a painful death, because the hunt for their heads is already open.
