Elara Tideborn and the Rusty Dagger

The sea chose her. The world will regret it. Elara was never meant to leave the island. For years, her world was small—waves, wind, and the quiet mystery of a life that never quite made sense. Until the day the sea gave something back. A dagger. Rust-eaten. Ancient. Alive. The moment she touches it, everything changes. The tides begin to whisper.The map begins to move.And a ship long lost to legend answers only to her. But the sea does not give without taking. Power awakens. Enemies follow.And far beyond the horizon, something is already searching for what she carries. Elara is no longer just surviving. She is becoming something the world has not seen in generations. And if the sea has chosen her… Then it may be too late for anyone to stop what comes next.
