These Favored Shadows

Delric

House of Beasts

Invited to face the trials to become a Master of his House, Delric finds himself in the company of a dragon and a ragtag group of outcasts. He’ll deal with these new companions, as long as they keep their magic away.

Ara

House of Farmers

She was invited to face the trials to become Master of her House, but she must be careful how much of herself she gives away in the process. Her family relies on her discretion, but it becomes a battle of mind versus heart.

Nil & Kepa

Nil: House of Builders

Kepa: House of Mages

Being twins comes with negative prejudices that they’ve had to fight all their lives, but to be called upon together for the trials has raised old suspicions. They’re looking to prove themselves, and they’ll do it together.

Hazen

House of the Guard

He was sent to do research at the temple, but when a lame dragon and inexperienced group of outsiders put themselves in danger, he has no choice but to protect them from their own foolishness.

Rayna

The Queen’s House

She falls into line with the others, eager for an escape from her House. But she’s not there for the same reasons they are.

Jemros

First-generation dragon of Loraillvon

Attacked during a hunt, he finds himself face to face with old magic. It binds him to a man of Loraillvon, and he’ll not leave until he’s discovered its true power.
