The Dragon Was Here: the Past of the Inheritors

When the soul begins to age, when the ancient dragon is about to fall, when the old laws come to an end—— The four inheritors embarked on a journey to the divine realm. The dragon-blood knight Leia Shermanes carries the red thunder and family secrets; the wizard leader Vanya Serolina has the will and memory of the ancient ice dragon sleeping in her body; the naturalist Irene Valentine holds a dragon scale pendant that will burn her; the alchemist Severus Orm was once soaked in the abyss and healed by the wind. What they are looking for is not a way to overcome the abyss, but the answer to a question: When the gods who created the world are about to disappear, are humans—these unblessed, short-lived lives like mayflies—qualified to take over the future of this world? From the apathy in the border town to the elf prophecies in the Philosopher's Forest; from the unknown continent outside the Storm Wall to the religious and secular disputes in the Floating City; from the thousand-year wind and snow in Dongya Mountain to the core of law deep in Dragon City - every step they take is approaching the final choice. This is not a story about "victory over evil." This is a search for "how to say goodbye". The ancient dragons were here. They were here too. Now, it's your turn.
