In a world where people with extraordinary abilities are feared, a vast facility known as the Sanctuary has been created to contain and control these powerful individuals. This sprawling city-like prison is governed by the ruthless Magnus, whose motto, "Might makes Right," dictates the brutal hierarchy within. Residents, both good and evil, live under constant surveillance and the threat of death if they attempt to escape, ensured by a lethal implant in their brains.

Elina, a compassionate healer with the power to mend wounds with a touch, struggles daily under Magnus's oppressive rule. Despite her invaluable ability, she is treated as little more than a tool, her freedoms heavily restricted. She tends to the wounded and sick, dreaming of a better world but seeing no way to achieve it.

Jax, a powerful energy manipulator, captured and forcibly brought to the Sanctuary. Upon his arrival, Jax is immediately targeted by Magnus, who seeks to recruit or destroy any threat to his dominance. Initially reluctant and cynical, Jax's sense of justice is ignited by the suffering he witnesses and his growing bond with Elina. Together, maybe they can challenge Magnus's tyranny.

The Dragon court under the now ancient King Magnus is a dangerous and ruthless place to grow up. A fact Estella has learned in painful detail. It's hard to recover from your father being labeled a traitor to the crown, and executed on the whim of your king. Stripped of titles, position, fortune, even her last name and home. In spite of her tragic circumstances, Esti does her best to overcome the challenges put in front of her. Adjusting from court life to peasanthood. Life is quiet on a farm, the work is hard. Esti doesn't mind the hard work, a tired body keeps her from having to think too much about everything she has lost. Esti thought the world was finally leveling out under her feet again after two years of learning the hard way how to farm. Until her mother betrays her, ending the delicate sense of peace Esti had come to know. Her world is shattered once again. Returned to the castle as less than an exile, Esti now has to contend with figuring our her place in the strict hierarchy of the court. No longer noble and generally hated by the other servants and slaves, Esti just wants to find a small hidden life where she can be content. That is, until one of the King's own bastard many greats grandson takes an interest in her. Adding too many layers of complications for Esti to solve on her own. Needing to rely on friends she knows, friends she makes, and the Royal bastard she didn't want to know, Esti needs to find herself, to save herself. **Warning**Allllllllllll the content trigger warnings apply. Summer is hot and humid, makes me cranky, sends my mind to dark places sometimes. Read at your own discretion.**Warning**
