Being a Dragoneye is a male-only pursuit. Becoming one is what every boy who studies Dragon Magic dreams of. A child, or rather, a young woman, also has this desire. And with extraordinary abilities, the path to achieving his goal seems simple. However, the revelation of a great secret could end all that. Eon is 12 years old and has been training since childhood. The intensive study of Dragon Magic, based on East Asian astrology, involves two types of skill: swordsmanship and magical aptitude. Both the boy and his master hope that he will soon be chosen as a Dragoneye—an apprentice to one of the twelve energy dragons of good fortune. Because of his unique ability with dragons of varying energies, only Eon is able to see more than one dragon. But despite being different, he harbors a dangerous secret. He is actually Eona, a 16-year-old girl who poses as a boy in search of the chance to become a Dragoneye. Women are not allowed to use Dragon Magic, and if anyone discovered her disguise, her death would be the consequence. When her secret is threatened, the young woman and her allies are thrust into an unpredictable fate. In the midst of a deadly struggle for the empire's throne, Eona must find the strength and inner power to fight those who seek to steal her magic and, consequently, her life.
