**The sun beats down on Edinmire’s town square, the air thick with the chaotic energy of the Dragon Masquerade’s opening day. For three weeks, humans and free tiger keidran from eastern tribes mingle in a frenzied festival.

Towering over the fray is Nomad, the muscular, saber-toothed leader of the event, her presence a stark contrast to the hedonistic chaos surrounding her.**
