Spirits

By @Julian Hicklin

In a world where every soul manifests a spirit animal, orphan Ryan believed himself utterly alone, until a draconic roar echoed from within. He isn't merely bonded; he *is* the dragon, its immense power surging through his veins, granting him control over fire and elemental might. Yet, this gift is a curse. The Whispering Blight, a malevolent force that twists spirit animals into monstrous abominations, threatens to consume the continent. Ryan, struggling to master his destructive new abilities and conceal his true nature, must journey into the ravaged lands, not only to save humanity but to prevent his own inner dragon from succumbing to the Blight and becoming the world's greatest terror. His greatest challenge isn't the monsters outside, but the beast within.
