Synopsis
Eona picks up after the events of Eon: Dragoneye Reborn, with the heroine's true identity as a woman now exposed and her claim to the Mirror Dragon's power openly acknowledged. Eona struggles to master her volatile abilities, since her bond to the Mirror Dragon leaves her acting as an unstable conduit for the spirits of ten other dragons whose former human Dragoneyes were murdered. Meanwhile the usurper Sethon has seized the imperial throne and moved against the rightful heir, plunging the empire into political crisis. Racing against time, Eona must find a way to control her fractured power while navigating threats from both the new tyrant and the cunning, dangerous Lord Ido, each of whom covets the strength locked within the imprisoned dragons for his own ends.
