Prologue

Sovarielle was born into a legacy of music and magic-one of the legendary sound dragons of Whispervale. But everything changed the day an attack stole her sense of smell, severing her from the bond that connects dragonkind. Exiled by instinct and grieving the loss of her family and horde, she vanished into the human world, learning to navigate life through sound instead of scent.
In dragon society, scent is everything. It guides memory, emotion, and most importantly-connection. It's how dragons recognize their mates. Without it, Sovarielle is considered broken, untethered... alone.
Years later, a single misstep leads her back into dragon territory-and into a storm of long-forgotten alliances, mythical creatures, and rising tensions. From sirens guarding sacred seas, to secretive centaurs with ancient wisdom, Sovarielle's path is shaped by those who see her not as damaged, but different.
And as feelings deepen between her and a dragon who seems to know more than he says, she begins to wonder:
If dragons find their mates by scent... will she ever truly know if she's found hers?

It may be helpful to reference it as you travel alongside Sovarielle on her journey.
