Chapter 1: The Crossroads of Solovyevo

When the fabric of worlds grows thin, and the dragons vanish into mist, two paths diverge - one of fire, one of roots. Alina, a quiet girl with a hidden gift, stays behind in the village of Solovyovo to learn from the spirits of land and forest. Her mother, Lena, must walk the path of vanished dragons and unravel an ancient mystery before magic itself disappears. At the edge of folklore and reality, the gatekeeper Vova offers no answers - only the road ahead.
