The Embermane Griffin of Redspire Valley
When Lord Vauston tries to steal Redspireβs crown, its rubies, and frankly the whole damn kingdom, the Embermane Griffin refuses to bowβand that single act of majestic sass cracks open a buried Bloodglass curse beneath the castle. Now Princess Elowen must face a false king, a dead tyrant, and centuries of polished-up royal nonsense before Redspire becomes someone elseβs feast.
