Origin Curse - Sarah Kate Ishii - Bog

Magic is disappearing.
The days of mages, spirits, and enchanted relics are gone, slipping into myth.
One girl holds the key to its survival...
Yoshiko, the daughter of the daimy¿ of Hié, possesses an ancient and dangerous power-the burning spirit of the dragon, Kiyohimé. When a devastating betrayal shatters her family, she and her mother are forced to flee their castle, hunted by a ruthless council determined to eradicate them and take control of the domain.
Fear grips the people of Hié, and mysterious disappearances haunt the land-including Yoshiko's best friend. Yoshiko must confront her dark curse as the fire of Kiyohimé threatens to consume her and those she loves, pushing her closer to a perilous edge.
But she's not alone. Gora, a mysterious outsider with his own dark past, joins her. Together, they navigate a treacherous path filled with deadly foes and long-buried secrets that could unravel their world.
And as the line between salvation and destruction blurs, one question remains:
Will Yoshiko's power save her people-or will it burn the world?
In the first book of The Dynasty Codes Series, witness the rise of a warrior as she battles for survival, truth, and a world on the brink of collapse.
