Once the weakest Beastbinder at Ironhaven Academy, Cael Voss is betrayed by Lyra Ashford and driven out after she frames him for stealing her Blazing Dragon. But in defeat, he awakens the Divine Beastbinder System, raising his worthless Shadow Cat into the fearsome Void Fang. As Lyra keeps chasing status, Cael grows stronger in silence, climbing from the bottom one step at a time. Their paths cross again at a World-Breaker Relic Site, where Cael stands before the traitor he once trusted, ready to reclaim his name.
