Embers of the Past. Elements of Chaos, #1

Legend tells that the dragons of Ryuutachi gifted mankind the power of elemental magic long ago. Humans born attuned to one of the seven elements are forced to hide their gifts or be persecuted for the sins of their ancestors. Taoru cares little for the traditions of the past; he aims only to protect his daughter, but what can he do when the greatest threat Lian faces is her own impatience?War is coming and Lian is determined to defend her home from the invasion of a rival province, but volunteering to serve in the army runs the risk of revealing her fire magic.
When Lian loses control and captures the eye of a fearsome Warlord, it's Taoru she turns to for aid. Taking a stand against the fiercest woman in Ryuutachi is guaranteed to unbalance their quiet lives and entangle them in the threads of fate. Are those who call upon the elements destined to return balance and stability to Ryuutachi? Or will their magic plunge the land into eternal chaos?
