Legacy Core: The Dragonborn Architect:

Arthis Hicair was supposed to die forgotten. A systems architect caught in the wrong place at the wrong time, his old life ended in a burst of violence far from home. But death was not the end. Instead, he awakens in darkness, trapped inside an egg, and is reborn as a dragonborn hatchling in the brood chamber of a powerful clan. Surrounded by instinct-driven young, watched by stern brood wardens, and forced to adapt to claws, wings, and a tail, Arthis quickly realizes this is no simple second chance. This world runs on strength, discipline, and a mysterious system awakened within the dragonborn at birth. While most hatchlings gain little more than instinctive awareness, Arthis is marked as something far rarer: A Lost Soul. With the memories of a past life, an adult mind in a hatchling body, and a system built for growth, Arthis begins life already different. He can understand the wardens’ words. He can analyze the world around him. And while instinct still burns beneath his scales, his calm mind and strange intelligence set him apart from the rest of the clutch. But being different is dangerous. The wardens are watching him closely. The brood is already beginning to gather around him. And beyond the safety of the hatch chamber lies a far larger world of dragonborn clans, harsh training, ancient power, and the trials that will shape him into whatever he is destined to become. Arthis has no regrets about leaving his human body behind. Because if this new life is real—if dragons, power, magic, and adventure truly exist—then he intends to live it fully. To grow stronger. To understand this world. And to become something far greater than he ever could have been before. An isekai progression fantasy about rebirth, discipline, dragonborn culture, system growth, and an old soul learning how to live again.
