Dear Dragon, Sorry

The king's apology was rejected by a dragon. Now the kingdom's only hope is a lower-district ghostwriter who knows exactly how lies hide inside beautiful sentences.

Elio Bart makes a living repairing apologies. Broken engagements, ruined pastries, bad landlords, worse excuses—if someone needs regret turned into something legally survivable, he can write it. But when Velgrath, an ancient fire-hoard dragon, seals the vital Grayridge Road and returns the royal apology with burning corrections, Elio is dragged from Inkpot Alley into the heart of the palace.

The problem is not the dragon's temper.

The problem is the apology.

Every royal draft is polished, dignified, and completely empty. The king wants the road reopened. The ministers want blame buried. The scribes want language clean enough to protect the Crown. But Velgrath keeps asking the one question no one in the palace wants answered:

Who was harmed?

As food, medicine, and trade begin to fail, Elio must dig through royal archives, sealed records, missing names, and three hundred years of carefully written history. Somewhere beneath the official story of Grayridge Road lies a debt the kingdom has never paid—and a truth too dangerous for the Crown to admit.

Witty, sharp, and emotionally grounded, Dear Dragon, Sorry is a dragon fantasy full of magical bureaucracy, royal court intrigue, historical secrets, and one reluctant ghostwriter trying to prove that a real apology is not made of pretty words.

If the kingdom cannot name what it stole, the dragon will not let it pass.

And if Elio writes the truth, the palace may never forgive him.
