As a child, Elian was condemned by her father Marcus for being a magicless waste; her mother Selene burned her life force to save her and cast her off a cliff, where she was adopted by Kaelen. Twenty years later, she awakened the Golden Dragon bloodline, returned home to find her mother, exposed the truth, stripped Leora of power, exiled Marcus, and became Queen of Ashridge. Leora made a deal with dark sorcerer Morgaine, sparking war and taking Kaelen hostage. Elian awakened Dragon God power, defeated the dark magic, saved her parents, and was ultimately crowned Sovereign of the continent.
