When a messenger arrives bearing an unmistakable symbol, a retired spy turned alchemist is thrust back into a world he hoped to leave behind, a world of secrets, war, and forgotten loyalties. His quiet life shatters as ancient conflicts rekindle, dragons scorch the skies, and desperate refugees flee from chaos. Meanwhile, his son returns from Mechanist College armed not just with knowledge but with revolutionary ideas. Blending alchemical secrets learned at his father''''s side with groundbreaking engineering, he has created a powerful new gunpowder and bullets that promise to change warfare forever. With dragons looming on the horizon, establishing a gunsmith suddenly seems less a business venture and more a matter for survival. Ordered to reunite his former unit, the veteran spy must navigate a deadly game of intelligence, deception, and betrayal. His mission is clear: observe, report, and remain undetected. But as tensions flare and his past emerges from the shadows, staying hidden may no longer be an option.
