The Sea Scale Art

The orphaned heir of the Dragon Clan, whose dragon form has been sealed, drifts to a fishing village. Under her adoptive father's protection, she grows up as a human, using her awakening sea-born instincts to protect her neighbors. But as the seal begins to crumble, she draws down a deadly threat.

She and an exiled youth burdened by the slaughter of his family recognize each other and bind themselves together. In the end, she bears a dragon's soul in a human body, vindicates the Dragon Clan at the Ascending Dragon Platform, and brings the mastermind behind the false charges to justice under the laws of Heaven.
