A Lore-Rich, Urban Fantasy World

The Verdant Coalition, Icehelm, The Pyrelands, The Mystic Octave, each nation has their own breed of native dragon--except one.  Aetherium placed progress ahead of environmental protection.  The result is that the most powerful nation has the fewest dragons.  

Now that dragons have become the ultimate war machines, Aetherium does what it must to maintain its military dominance--no matter who they must crush beneath their boots.

And yet, some dragons come to Aetherium for refuge from their even more terrible nations.  

Chance is getting his first taste of geopolitics in a country that prefers their population to stay ignorant.  The more he learns about his world, the more terrible his situation becomes.
