Even though Socris was a prince, one of the highest authorities in the empire and a man whose status was surpassed only by the King and the dragons themselves, he still craved more.
More power, attention and influence but no matter how much he possessed, it was never enough.
Throughout his life, he had been hailed as the noblest among nobles.
Wherever he went, people bowed before him, sought his favor and treated him with the utmost respect. Aside from the King and dragons, no individual in the empire could rival his authority.
To the common people, Socris was a man who already had everything.
Yet he was never satisfied.
Since childhood, he had understood a truth that constantly gnawed at him.
No matter how high his position rose and how much prestige he accumulated, he would never truly stand at the top as long as dragons exIsted. Their very presence overshadowed kings, princes and nobles alike.
