She was the last dragon of her tribe—or so they told her. Long ago, her kingdom worshiped the Sun God, who blessed their people with the power of fire, passed down through the priestess line for generations. But two thousand years ago, Priestess Sayanna defied the Sun’s will by choosing her own daughter as her successor. That betrayal fractured the Sun’s power, leading to the extinction of the dragons—except for one, Lukanna. Yet, as the legends said, a dragon without a rider was nothing. Two millennia later, a child was born under the brightest star ever seen, the mark of the Dragon Born. But she was not the only one. Another child, born into the priestess’s bloodline that same night, was hailed as the true Dragon. The people believed the other was destined for greatness, while she was branded the Black Dragon, a harbinger of chaos. By tradition, she should have been killed at birth. Her mother refused to let that happen. Moving from city to city, she kept her child hidden from those who sought her death. The child slowly grew up and it was not long before she was feared. Hunted. Misunderstood. She was Vermyra. Was she the chaos they feared, or something far greater than they could imagine? To know more, listen to 'The Black Dragon' on Pocket FM!
