Drake was once the centre of every decision.
A paladin-commander whose strength, certainty, and presence shaped those around him, Drake was the one others looked to when the line began to break.
But after battle leaves him physically changed, Drake must learn that strength does not always return in the same shape.
His injury does not remove his capability.
It changes how that capability is expressed.
As the temple, council, knights, and commanders around him struggle to adjust, Drake begins to question what leadership truly means when it is no longer built around control, dominance, or being indispensable.
Through training yards, council chambers, rescue, conflict, and quiet moments of self-reflection, Drake's story explores adaptation, dignity, support, collaboration, and the difficult difference between stepping back and disappearing.
This is not a story about becoming who he was before.
It is a story about what remains when identity changes.
About leadership without centrality.
About support without replacement.
About strength that creates space for others to rise.
DRAKE is part of the Beyond the Wheel Case Study Story Series - fictional, narrative-based works designed to explore disability, identity, capability, dignity, support, and the real-world systems that shape people's lives.
Each book in the series follows a different character, disability, limitation, condition, or lived-experience theme, inviting readers, professionals, teams, support workers, educators, leaders, and organisations to reflect more deeply on inclusion, autonomy, awareness, and meaningful change.
