The Empyrean

In the war college of Basgiath, young Violet Sorrengail is forced by her mother, the general, to enter the deadly Riders Quadrant instead of the scholarly Scribe Quadrant she prefers. Surrounded by cadets who must survive brutal training and bond with dragons, Violet faces the constant threat of death on the parapet, in combat, and during dragon presentations. The central conflict is her struggle to prove she belongs among the riders while navigating a world where survival depends on strength, cunning, and the ability to earn a dragon's trust.
