The Cursed Ruler, His Savior, and Their Hidden Child
Ron: The Sealed Sovereign Running a Tavern
Ron once ruled as an all-powerful Dragon King until a curse nearly killed him six years ago. Stripped of his abilities, he now operates a humble tavern while hunting for the human who rescued him. His dual existence — former deity turned ordinary innkeeper — drives every choice he makes, especially once the search finally ends.
Elena: The Vanished Healer Who Started Everything
Elena saved Ron from death, then disappeared without explanation. Her absence shaped his half-decade quest, and her sudden reappearance — cornered by bullies alongside a young girl — forces the past into the present. She holds the key to his lost power and the reason he gave up his throne.
The Five-Year-Old Daughter Caught in the Crossfire
The child rescued alongside Elena is their daughter, making her a target for enemies who want to sacrifice her. Her existence binds the former Dragon King and the human woman together, turning a personal search into a battle for survival. Every threat against her pulls Ron closer to reclaiming what he sealed away.
