Shattered Divinity

The Chernzerk, a race of fierce dragon riders, were eliminated a hundred years ago from the kingdom of Kalazaar. Perceived as chaotic and evil, the only remaining Chernzerk, Leper, stays hidden, concealed beneath his queen's shield for two decades. Kalazaar, a kingdom split into nine ruling cities, is sustained by the power of the seven divine shards.
But, when the High King executes a royal family and steals their shard, the peace between the kingdoms is fractured. Loyal to his Queen, the only family he's ever known, Leper dons a disguise and travels across the world to unite the rulers and protect the shards.
On his journey, Leper clashes with tyranny, while trying to prove to society and himself, he is not an enslaver or terrorist like his ancestors. To survive, Leper must place his faith in his newly forged friendships, but he wonders if anyone will remain by his side when his identity is revealed.
The High King's power escalates with every shard acquired, leading to the destruction of cities and the death of rival monarchs. As secrets of Leper's past are uncovered, and an unexplained rage boils in his blood, he fears he'll never be the champion Kalazaar needs. If Leper doesn't embrace his heritage and step into his power in time, the High King's ruinous march will shatter the kingdom beyond repair.
