Description
Trapped in a shimmering gemstone, suspended in an endless void between dimensions, lives Aoya - the last of the Dragonan, a divine species once revered as goddesses. Marked by her black-scaled wings, four golden horns, and a turquoise-fluffed tail, Aoya is not just a relic of ancient power... she is power. Cursed to serve whoever possesses the necklace that binds her, her once-sacred duty as a Protector has twisted into centuries of forced obedience and suffering. The Krang were her last captors, using her to ravage and conquer. Until the necklace fell into the hands of Michelangelo - the most carefree, heart-driven turtle of the mutant brothers. But Aoya, broken by centuries of cruelty, doesn't trust easily. Timid, quiet, and afraid of another cruel master, she expects pain. Instead, she finds warmth in Mikey - in his laughter, in his kindness, in the way he sees her as a friend rather than a weapon. As Mikey learns to wield her power and unlock long-forgotten spells, Aoya teaches him balance, discipline, and the art of true combat. In return, he shows her freedom... the kind she hasn't felt in a thousand years. In the silent space of her wings, he finds peace. In his gentle presence, she dares to hope. But the Krang are not done. And the necklace is still a key. Others will come for it - and for her. And the only way Aoya can break her chains for good... is if she becomes what she once was destined to be: A Protector.
