The Draconis Memoria

In a world where the powerful Ironship Trading Syndicate's global dominance hinges entirely on drake blood—a precious elixir granting extraordinary, fearsome abilities to the rare individuals known as the Blood-blessed—a hidden and terrifying crisis looms. The vital lines of drakes are not only weakening but rapidly failing, a truth concealed from the masses, threatening to ignite a devastating, all-consuming war with the rival Corvantine Empire and plunge civilization into an irreversible age of chaos.

This series plunges into the lives of an ensemble cast, each a smart protagonist from vastly different walks of life. Among them are Claydon Torcreek, a street-smart petty thief and unregistered Blood-blessed, unexpectedly thrust into a dangerous world of espionage and ancient secrets; Lizanne Lethridge, a formidable and cunning spy and assassin, navigating treacherous enemy territory with deadly precision; and Corrick Hilemore, a dedicated second lieutenant of an Ironship cruiser, whose pursuit of ruthless brigands leads him to a far greater, world-threatening menace at the very edge of the map. Each, in their own way, possesses an innate intelligence and a fierce drive to survive and make their mark in a world teetering on the precipice.

Across this fast-paced, military-focused epic, these disparate individuals embark on a relentless, high-stakes quest for a mythical resource, their paths inextricably intertwined by a looming global war that promises to consume all. Their journey is one of profound personal growth, a weak-to-strong progression where they must continuously adapt, confront moral ambiguities, and evolve from their initial circumstances into forces capable of challenging a world-ending peril. The stakes are grim, the challenges immense, and humanity's survival hangs in the balance, demanding revolutionary technology, ancient knowledge, and unexpected alliances.
