Skyforged: The Shadow Pact

Lyra Vale was never meant to stand among warriors. Small, quiet, and fascinated by lost lore, she only came to the Citadel to find her missing brother — a decorated rider who vanished during the last Serath incursion.

But during the deadly Bonding Trials, when all hope fades, a dragon of living shadow and starlight chooses her. The bond nearly kills her — and brands her as an abomination.

Now, hunted by her instructors and haunted by whispers of ancient gods, Lyra must master the forbidden magic that binds her to her dragon, Nythrax. In doing so, she discovers the truth: the Serath are not invaders — they are victims of the same divine war that shattered the skies.
