Location from Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros
The kingdom protected by magical wards and defended by dragon riders — a nation built on military might and maintained through carefully controlled lies about the threats beyond its borders.
Navarre is a kingdom whose entire identity is built around its dragon riders and the magical wards that protect its borders. For generations, its people have lived in relative safety, trusting that the wards hold and the riders defend. But the truth is darker: the wards are failing, the venin are draining the earth beyond the borders, and Navarre's leadership has chosen secrecy over preparation. The kingdom's military hierarchy — from Basgiath War College to the front lines — operates on a foundation of controlled information, where only those at the very top know the full scope of the threat. Navarre's greatest enemy may not be the venin but its own institutional refusal to face the truth.
