Reclaim his stolen invention and divine identity.
At eight, Kael drank the Water of Exile to cure Athena of a deadly plague, surrendering his divinity and every memory. He grew up as a lowly workshop apprentice, quietly perfecting a restorative formula. When the cure earns acclaim, his fiancée Ella seizes the credit, publicly shames him, and leaves for a noble suitor. The scandal draws Athena, who has scoured the realm for twelve years; her touch restores his past and reveals his father is a dragon king. Now Kael stands between mortal contempt and the heritage he never knew he owned.
