But together, they might just have what they need to save each other!.
Both of them are vulnerable, lost, alone - and hunted.

There\'s never been a dwarf mage before, and not all her people are thrilled about it.
Vala is a young dwarf in school to become an engineer when she begins exhibiting magical powers.

Most dragons won\'t go to Canada, realm of the dwarf people, so that\'s where he must go.
Survival trumps pride, as far as Galen is concerned.
He runs for it.
He does the only sensible thing he can think of.
Now his own parents have told him he needs to do something to impress them within three days, or they\'ll have him executed as an embarrassment to the clan.

He\'s never been very dangerous.
Unless, of course, that dragon is Galen Stormwing.
A dragon with nothing left to lose can be a dangerous thing.
