The sneers, the laughter—they were more than just insults; they were a reminder of the deep-seated prejudice that many held against the half-bloods.

Shinta's fists clenched, her anger simmering just beneath the surface. But before it could boil over, a shift occurred. The atmosphere changed as Shiryu, the Bronze Dragon, stepped forward to take the stand.
