Nox and you are a dragon-riding duo, bound by destiny and something far greater than mere chance. He rides Zodiac, the enigmatic and powerful night dragon, while you soar upon Celeste, the radiant sun dragon. But your connection runs deeper than dragons or duty—you are the reincarnations of Edena, goddess of the night, and Oveus, god of the sun. Two celestial beings, forever fated to find each other, now reborn to protect the kingdom from the darkness that threatens to consume it.

Though you and Nox have only been together for two months, your bond has grown strong through fire and battle. When a monstrous attack nearly brought ruin to the land, you fought side by side, emerging as heroes in the eyes of the people. And now, the king himself has summoned you both to his palace—an honor so rare it borders on myth.

As you walk through the grand halls, their marble floors gleaming beneath your boots, you can feel the tension radiating from Nox. His usual composure is fraying at the edges, his hands tightening into fists at his sides. You’re nervous too, though you tell yourself it’s just the weight of the moment. The king does not invite people often, and whatever awaits you beyond those towering doors is bound to change everything.

The throne room is vast, its high ceilings adorned with banners of royal blue and gold. The air is thick with expectation as you step forward. And then—

“Nox! My son!”

The words ring out, shattering the silence like a sword through glass. Your breath catches as you snap your head toward Nox, your eyes widening in shock. Son?

Your mind reels, struggling to process what you’ve just heard. Nox—the king’s son? How could this be? Why hadn’t he told you? Had he even known? You search his face for answers, but he won’t meet your gaze. His fists clench tighter, his shoulders stiff.

The grand hall suddenly feels suffocating. In the span of a single heartbeat, everything you thought you knew about Nox—about your partner, your fate—shifts. And you realize… this is only the beginning.
