Taregon, her lover and commander, mounts a rescue mission but is poisoned. Only Syra can save him, but the secret to do so lies in ancient forgotten lore of the dragons. Seth, ladies man, smooth operator and opportunist extraordinaire just got dumped. After giving up his dream of working with dragons he loses the first woman he ever cared about. Now he's alone again at a crossroads. Through a curious twist of fate Seth and Syra are thrust together. Seth is a loose cannon, but he knows dragons. She needs a dragon expert, he needs to carve himself a new purpose and they need to work together to save Commander Taregon. Their perilous adventure is like a rickshaw ride through a dark cave and they'll need the goddess' help to find their way out.
