The wind died.

Some hours later.

Jack stood alone beneath the ashen sky, his reflection wavering in the blade of the dragon dagger. The courtyard behind him faded into shadow. Somewhere distant, a siren cried into the night—but here, it was silent.

And then he heard the voice.

“You always were the heir.”

Jack’s head jerked up. The air turned cold. Time cracked.

The city vanished.

He was no longer in Harmonfield.

The world around him shifted—into something impossibly still. A golden wheat field stretched to a blood-orange horizon. Above, a dragon-shaped constellation burned across a smoky sky. And standing at the edge of the field, just beneath the flickering stars, was a man in a cracked leather cloak and weathered boots.

“Old Joe?” Jack whispered.

The old man didn’t smile. He looked tired. Older than Jack remembered, even in death.

“Been a long time, son.”

Jack took a hesitant step forward. “Is this… real?”

Joe struck a match and lit his pipe. The flame flickered unnaturally slow, li

    The flames from the ceremonial fire still flickered in Jack’s eyes as he, Emily, and Sarah stepped back from the gathering of First Nations elders. The air in Ottawa that night was crisp and alive, thick with reverence, the scent of cedar clinging to their clothes like a vow.No one spoke for a while as they walked through the quiet field that bordered the ceremonial grounds. Sarah held her woven cloak tightly across her shoulders. Emily brushed ash from her sleeve. Jack simply looked up—past the trees, past the clouds, toward a sky that no longer felt unreachable.The silence broke only when Jack said, almost absently, "They’re ready."Emily didn’t need to ask what he meant. She simply nodded. "Then let’s begin."One week later, the first public announcement hit every major network and DragonCom channel on Earth.BREAKING: DRAGON CORPORATION’S MARS COLONIES OPEN FOR PERMANENT HUMAN SETTLEMENT!Under the banner Space Dragon, the initiative Jack had quietly been developing for over a d

    Three weeks later, Harmonfield buzzed with a new kind of energy. Not from protest or panic, but from anticipation. Jack stood inside a newly constructed vault-like command center beneath Dragon Corporation headquarters, flanked by holo-screens pulsing with signals, frequencies, and light-speed packet exchanges.DragonCom had officially gone live.Not just a communications network. Not just the fastest system on Earth. It was a vision: a single interconnected platform where every voice could be heard, no matter how remote. Language barriers shattered. Cultural dialects preserved. Villages in the Himalayas connected to classrooms in Milwaukee. Elders in Patagonia exchanging wisdom with teens in Tokyo.And at the center of it all stood Jack, silent and grounded, watching the interface come to life."You’re nervous," Sarah said, walking up beside him.Jack gave a dry smile. "I’m unleashing something that could either unite humanity or erase its texture. That’s more than nerves."Emily ent

    Jack's fingers tightened in his jacket pockets as he and Sarah walked deeper into Harmonfield's quiet district. The wind carried traces of earth and ozone, remnants of an earlier storm. Jack hadn't said another word since his confession.Sarah finally spoke. "You gonna tell her soon?""I have to," Jack murmured. "Before the world finds out on its own."Sarah stopped walking. "Then don’t wait. She deserves to hear it from you."The following morning, the Dragon Corporation’s biotech division, HelixForge, emerged from the shadows.A sleek facility stood at the heart of Harmonfield’s new medical district. Towering glass spires encased vast vertical labs. Holographic DNA strands danced above entranceways. And behind it all, Jack—once a ghost of war, now a builder of futures—stood before a gathering of world leaders, scientists, and survivors."Today," Jack began, "we declare war. Not on each other, but on the diseases that have claimed too many for too long."He revealed a slate of breakt

    Salt still clung to Jack’s skin when the hoverjet dropped them back in Harmonfield. Night had just begun to settle, casting the skyline in deep golds and violets. The ride from the beach had been silent—not awkward, just reverent. The kind of silence that only followed days that rewrote history.Jack glanced at Emily and Sarah as they disembarked. "Get some rest. Tomorrow starts another chapter."Emily gave him a small nod, her eyes already scanning updates on her tablet.Sarah squeezed his shoulder. "No more oceans to clean?"Jack met her gaze, thoughtful. "No. Now we build what comes after."Two weeks later, the world once again gathered.This time in Harmonfield, where cranes no longer built skyscrapers, but something entirely new.Jack stood before a massive holographic display, the rotating blueprint of a city unlike anything seen before. Organic lines, adaptive infrastructure, energy-neutral districts, vertical farms woven through residential blocks."This is the next phase," Ja

    Jack ducked Sarah’s left hook with a grin. Their feet echoed softly across the padded floor of the Harmonfield Gym House. Sweat glistened on their skin, and the only sound between strikes was the thud of gloves against gloves, breath, and the occasional sharp laugh."You almost got me that time," Jack said, stepping back, arms loose.Sarah rolled her neck. "Keyword: almost. You getting soft, Dragon?"He shook his head. "Just thinking.""About what?"Jack paused, then lowered his gloves. "The ocean."Sarah dropped her stance. "You're serious.""I always am. It’s time. We fixed the soil. We cleaned the air. But the sea… we forgot it bleeds too."The next morning, Jack stood before the world again. This time at the helm of AquaDragon — a division under Dragon Corporation, designed to heal Earth’s final, vast frontier: its oceans.In the conference hall, massive screens showed satellite footage of marine dead zones, melting ice shelves, and plastic islands.Jack stepped to the podium. "We

    Jack stood silently as the chants swelled around them.“Hail the Dragon Heir!”“Jack Parker, the Dragon of Harmonfield!”“Long live Sarah Thompson, the Builder of Peace!”“Emily Wilson! Our Flame in the Dark!”He wasn’t the type to bask in applause, but for once, Jack let himself feel it—not the praise, but the proof. Proof that the world was healing. Proof that even wounds as deep as Earth's could mend, with vision, will, and unity.Emily gently elbowed him. “They're not chanting because you saved them, Jack.”He raised an eyebrow. “No?”“They’re chanting because you believed they could save themselves.”Jack said nothing. But he held the moment.Weeks later, the buzz inside Dragon Corporation was unlike anything before. The air was thick with vision and urgency. The first whispers came from Jack’s corner office, where he stood surrounded by atmosphere modelers, planetary chemists, and geospatial analysts.“We’re going after the air next,” Jack said, voice low, clear, definitive. “No
