Rise of the Sky-King

Varon Khaeryx was born to a monstrous legacy—and raised under a gentler name, Aran, by those who feared what he might become. When love and loss awaken the catastrophe in his blood, the only mercy left is exile.
He falls through the Sundergate into Aru-Kesh, a brutal savanna world where power is not merely held—it is felt. Here, Varon’s will manifests as The Weight, crushing the air with authority; his voice carries Command; and an Apex instinct crowns his thoughts.
But the sky itself has a tyrant.
A dragon—ancient, cunning, and contemptuous—burns the Red Expanse and turns tribes into refugees. To stop it, Varon must do what no ruler has dared: meet sovereign fury with sovereign law. At dawn on a shattered lakebed, steel and siege-lines will fail… unless Varon can force the unforceable to kneel.
Victory will cost blood. Binding will cost more.
And when the dust settles, the world will look up and see a new terror—and a new promise—riding the horizon: a Dragon Lord who means to forge unity beneath one sky… and carry that power toward the gates beyond.
