Backstory

Whispered rumors claimed Benedict Martins Emberstrider could taste lies on the wind, a peculiar gift that manifested the day he discovered his mother Elara wasn't just a humble bookseller, but a former royal scribe exiled for documenting forbidden dragon-human alliances. The leather-bound tome he'd cherished since childhood wasn't filled with children's tales, but with his mother's encrypted testimonies of secret negotiations between the Dragon Council and New Eldoria's underground resistance. When arsonists torched the bookshop to destroy evidence of these political machinations, his father Ignatius arrived not as a savior, but as a hunted council member seeking the very book Benedict clutched. That night, weaving 'The Ember's Lament' from fragments of his parents' dangerous truths, Benedict realized his gift for storytelling wasn't mere talent—it was a weapon that could either unite two worlds or ignite a war between them.
