Steps of the Dragon Knight

The hero returns to the empire a dragon’s corpse dragged back. Armor askew. They trudge their way back body tired and broken. Home. They expect gratitude. They expect many things like a higher title. What they did not expect was to become the Royal Guard for the First Princess of the Ixmtaraza Empire. Isabella Desdemona. The hero is pulled into confusing politics and relationships within the castle walls. While without the empires converge and allies are made that could break the Ixmtaraza Empire. 18+ for excessive violence and other triggering content.

Disquiet of the Heart

Chapter 42

A quiet hush fell over the city as martial law was instituted across the Empire. RIM's attempts to keep the Exl outbreak quiet failed and many of the common folk were worried about the outcome. That accompanied to the many mercenary groups getting arrested for moving the ingredients as well as the drugs.

Some knowingly but most unknowingly well to say the least the Empire was bubbling with something concerning. 

It was concerning to the nation itself. The nation Vesper led. 

The moon high in the sky did nothing to relax her. The darkness over the city she could see from her tower made her frown deep enough if one looked it would be as if someone decided to shovel her cheeks.
