What value is freedom when you can't even ride a dragon? As the life of a slave goes, KANTEES doesn't have it too bad. Being responsible for a racing dragon means her existence is more than just drudgery and fear, even if her life is at the whim of her masters and their rules. But when her dragon wakes her in the middle of the night KANTEES is forced to make a life-or-death decision that breaks her masters' rules and means her life is forfeit. Escaping on the back of dragons, with a hodge-podge of unwelcome associates, she attempts to put right a wrong that can never be corrected. Until, ultimately, she must put her own life on the line to keep the freedom she has stolen for herself.
