Wings Born In Ruin // 12.2026
Sazarah Balhaye stopped wanting to live long before she had to start surviving.
She is a Drashez, a dragon descendant, a blacksmith, and a fighter. By day she teaches children that it's acceptable to be afraid. By night she hunts the people who gave them reason to be.
Then she loses everything that made her hold the hammer and the sword.
What's left is drinking, fighting, and a road she takes with no intention of coming back. It leads her to Darmanesh, a hidden city that runs trials on people and calls it an integration process.
Beside her: Navid, a healer who believes in her more than she deserves. And Zayesh, a black Drashez with the power to destroy, who carries the same shadows in his eyes as she does.
The Senate wanted to make weapons from them.
They should have been more careful what they forged.
For readers, who have to survive their own mind. You are not alone.
