Ignis

Teen learns he's Prometheus's son, gains god-slaying fire, hunted by divine forces.

Seventeen-year-old Ignis watches an ice dragon reduce his home to ash and take his mother. The tragedy reveals his true lineage as the concealed son of Prometheus, igniting volatile flames in his blood strong enough to overthrow deities. Now marked as a half-mortal anomaly, he draws the attention of celestial enforcers sent to erase him before he can master the inheritance. Grief fuels his resolve to control the power rather than let it consume him.
