The Crown of Hollow Stars

Itami_9
When the stars vanished from the sky, the kingdom went into chaos. Nyra is seventeen, an orphan, and a star scribe who has spent her life working in the shadows of the temple. But when the night sky goes completely dark, she learns the truth the temple buried long ago, she is the last bloodline of a forgotten celestial dynasty, and the only one capable of bringing the stars back. The royal court doesn’t see a saviour. They see a weapon, or a crime waiting to be punished for going against them. The sky was wrong. Nyra stood barefoot on the temple roof, breath curling into the cold midnight air. No stars. Not a single flicker. Just a stretch of black velvet, as if the gods themselves had been snuffed out. Then the bells rang. Not the gentle call to prayer, but the sharp, frantic clang of war. “They know now,” the note in her hand said. Nyra didn’t need to read it twice. The moment the stars went silent, her fate had already been decided. Cornered and out of time, she reaches for the one thing forbidden, the Crown of Hollow Stars. And it answers. “Ugh. You’re late. Three dynasties collapsed. Two false kings died screaming. And now you show up barefoot and confused. Typical Starkeeper behaviour.” Bound to a mouthy, ancient crown and hunted by the people who raised her, Nyra is forced into a world far bigger and far deadlier than she ever imagined. Alongside Finn, the rightful Starbearer, she begins a dangerous climb toward truth, power, and a throne the kingdom never intended to give back.

The dragon's harem

What makes dragons strong? It's not their power or magic, but their mind. Arrogance, greed, Iron Will, and the lack of human restraints. What would happen if you threw such a creature into human society? Would they understand humans? What does love even mean to them? This is the situation that our MC, Arad Orion found himself in. A newborn dragon bringing "Might make Right" to the humanoids, but why? Due to an abnormal condition, the mighty void dragons are on the brink of extinction. Their bodies have suddenly started rejecting their kind. Due to that, Arad's mother dropped his egg into a forest where he could hatch safely, leaving him with a fragment of her consciousness and informing him of the condition of their race. From that point, his goal became clear. To save their race by either finding a cure for their condition or going the second route of making more void dragons. But, sadly, nothing is ever that easy. Finding a cure is almost impossible. Arad is still practically a newborn and cannot tap into the terrifying might of his race, and his rarity makes him a prime target for mages and scholars seeking to study the dying race. Dragons are arrogant, proud, and vicious. Yet those feeling extends to those whom they love. You who touched a dragon's love, Retribution is an insult, and life is a crime. Beware as merely existing draws the dragon's wrath. Follow Arad on his journey as he grows from a naive wyrmling to a grown dragon with enough wisdom and power to stand with the strongest of the world. *** If you liked the story, please support it with power stones and comments!
