Dragonbound: In a World of Dragons

In Dragonbound, a realm where dragons rule skies and mountains, only those who forge deep bonds with these majestic beings can wield their power. An orphaned boy, marked by fate, discovers a rare gift—the ability to understand and bond with dragons. As war looms and ancient evils stir, he must rise not just as a master, but as the bridge between two worlds.

Plot Overview

I. The Call of the Skyborn
In a world fearing dragons as destroyers, "Dragonbinders" alone form soul-deep connections with them. Our protagonist, an orphan, is revealed as one such binder. His first bond is with a wild, cursed dragon—a partnership that defies all tradition.

II. Training Among the Fanged
Joining a hidden order of Dragonbinders, he trains under ancient drakes. Here, he learns not just combat and flight, but dragonkind’s history, language, and the truth behind their growing hostility toward humans.

III. War of Wings and Fire
As kingdoms vie for control of Dragonbinders, betrayal strikes from within. Amid chaos, the protagonist uncovers a dark plot: centuries of manipulation have turned dragons into weapons, not allies.

IV. Awakening the Forgotten Bond
Ancient ruins yield lost techniques and the origin of Dragonbinder pacts. He discovers a new way to bond—through mutual trust, not dominance—threatening those who rely on fear to rule dragons.

V. Rise of the Last Binder
Facing a fallen Dragonbinder who enslaves dragons, he must unite free drakes and scattered clans. To succeed, he must become the Dragonbound—the ultimate bridge between dragons and humanity.
