The Heirs of the Dragon Runes

Latif has spent too much of his life chasing rewards that slipped through his fingers. So when a mysterious mage offers him, Darina, and Lucio a dangerous job in exchange for gold, he takes it.

Their task seems simple enough: enter an ancient place where magic cannot be used, retrieve a hidden book, and claim the treasure said to lie within.

But the moment they cross the threshold, nothing goes as expected.

What they find beneath the mountain is older than memory, bound in runes, silence, and something that still watches. The book does not merely reveal a lost path. It responds to Latif himself. And with every step deeper into the Dragon Hoard, the line between hunter and chosen bearer begins to blur.

As forgotten powers awaken and the mountain itself begins to breathe, Latif and his companions must decide what they are truly carrying-and what may be waiting for them at the end of the path.

Because some treasures were never meant to be possessed.

And some doors, once opened, change everything.
