I Only Tame Dragons

"Come not between the Dragon and his Wrath." — William Shakespeare The year was 2140, and Earth had become nothing more than a distant memory. Humanity now roamed the galaxies aboard colossal ARKs, immense skyships that served as the last remnants of civilization. Yet, these ARKs were not just floating cities; they were humanity’s final sanctuaries, preserving what little remained of their species. A century before Earth's final collapse, humanity discovered a gateway to a realm known as Eternia — a world straight out of myth and legend. To reach this realm required more than advanced technology; it demanded a complete departure from the physical body and entry into a mysterious process called the Dream Weave. In the present day, Cloud lived aboard ARK NO. 427, where he had been training from a young age to enter the Dream Weave. He stood out among his peers, excelling in every task that came his way. Everything seemed to be on track for him — until the crucial day of the Class Selection process.
