About this Book

Dragon Breath
By Jarrod L. Edge

When darkness adapts, so must those who stand against it.
What began as street‑level crime ignites into something far more dangerous—forcing the Dragons to confront an enemy that learns, evolves, and strikes back.

ABOUT THIS STORY

Dragon Breath continues the New York City arc of The Acts of the Dragons, set during Elizabeth Sette’s seventh year, as the consequences of earlier interventions begin to surface.

What first appeared to be isolated criminal activity now reveals deeper coordination. The ePolics are no longer acting randomly. Their leadership has adapted, fortified, and expanded—turning the city itself into contested ground.

As Elizabeth and her siblings respond, the stakes rise sharply. The tactics that once worked are no longer enough. The Dragons must move faster, think deeper, and confront the reality that their presence has drawn attention from forces far more dangerous than street gangs.

This is the story where:

the ePolics evolve from criminals into operatives,
organized leadership steps into the open,
and the Dragons realize they are no longer reacting—they are being countered.

Dragon Breath marks the moment when the conflict stops feeling local and begins to feel intentional.

WHY THIS STORY MATTERS

Dragon Breath is a critical escalation point in The Acts of the Dragons because it:

• Shows adversaries learning from earlier defeats
• Introduces coordinated opposition with long‑term objectives
• Demonstrates that intervention carries consequences
• Forces the Dragons to adapt beyond instinct and training
• Reinforces that the war does not pause just because children are involved

This is no longer about stopping harm after it happens.
It is about preventing the next evolution of evil.

NEW YORK CONNECTION

New York City shifts in this story—from setting to battleground.

The city’s density, anonymity, and infrastructure become tools for both sides. What was once hidden beneath streets and schools now spreads outward, testing how far influence can travel before it is noticed.

The Dragons are no longer alone in the shadows.
