Rise of the Emberguard

Elara Flameborn has always kept to the quiet edges of the room, certain magic belonged to braver apprentices. But when a warm living fire awakens in her palms, everything she believes about herself begins to change.

With Master Thalion as her guide, she learns the flame is a living being, curious and gentle, growing stronger as she grows braver. Yet the valley forbids all living fire, a power once used to save the realm but banished out of fear.

When a creeping frost begins consuming the valley, Elara must choose whether to remain hidden or step forward to save the people who fear her.

Fire Within is a story about courage, self discovery, and embracing a power shaped by empathy and resilience.
