Ash Mystery Dungeon

In a world where portals started appearing and Dungeon Divers, or Delvers, started diving into these dangerous abysses, One man would soon rise to the very top, the worlds undisputed best Delver. Some called him a savior, in the old world he would be called a psychopath. This man did not dive for money or fame or power, No he didn’t even care that much how strong he becomes. All he cared about was a good fight, that struggle on a knifes edge, the feeling of death creeping up from behind. It was the only drug he needed and man was he addicted.

When the Black Maw calls, no one refuses. Elias was born in the slums of Valtaros, where survival is measured in stolen scraps and whispered prayers. But when the Maw chooses him, he is thrust into a trial of blood and madness, where only the strongest—or the most ruthless—survive. Inside the Maw’s twisted realm, Elias quickly learns the truth: mercy is a weakness, trust is a lie, and only power matters. He carves his way forward, eliminating anyone who stands in his path. Yet even as he embraces the Maw’s brutal logic, he cannot escape the one challenger he never expected—Lyara, a warrior whose compassion defies the Maw’s cruelty. She refuses to break. She refuses to let him fall. But when she sacrifices herself to save him, Elias is left with a question that shakes him to his core—was she right? As the final trial begins, Elias must face the deadliest battle yet—not just against the monstrous horrors of the Maw, but against the man he is becoming. And when the Maw finally devours him whole, he will be forced to make the ultimate choice: Will he rise as the Maw’s chosen, a being of pure destruction? Or will he defy fate itself, becoming something the Maw never intended? One way or another, the trial will end. And Elias will never be the same.

In a world where magic dictates destiny, your worth is determined by two things—Talent and Bloodline. Asvorn has neither. Branded as worthless from birth, he was abandoned by his parents and cast out of his village, left to survive on scraps and endure a life of scorn. For twenty-two years, he lived on the outskirts of society, invisible, unloved. But when starvation and despair push him to his limit, he makes a choice—to leave his wretched life behind and seek a future in the capital of Vaelthorin. Armed with nothing but sheer will and a makeshift weapon, he embarks on a journey riddled with danger, where even the weakest creatures could end his life. Yet, beneath his frail exterior, something stirs—something unseen, something forgotten. Is he truly worthless? Or is there more to his fate than what the world has decided for him? Asvorn’s journey has begun, and with it, the first embers of a fire long thought dead.

Malrik’s betrayal cuts deeper than any blade, revealing a web of deception far greater than she ever imagined. With her heart shattered and the throne slipping further from her grasp, Elaris faces an impossible choice—submit to the throne spirit’s hunger for power or forge her own path, even if it means sacrificing the man she once loved.

In the Ashen Reach, a cursed wasteland of black dunes and ember-storms, Torv “Ash” Kren runs alone, hauling glowing ember-shards in a battered sled. Once a raider, he quit when his crew torched innocence—now he trades magic fuel for water, machete chipped, coat patched, one job from death. An ember-storm cracks his sled—shards spill—when Lysa “Ember” Vey stumbles from the haze, half-dead, clutching a red-hot Core Ember worth a fortune or a grave. Lysa’s an ash-witch—bends shards into fire-blades, hunted by warlord Krax for a 10,000-shard bounty. She offers Torv 2,000 to run her to the Free Drift, rebel camp past the Dune Wall—or leave him dry in the sand. Torv’s gut says ditch her—warlord’s hounds close—but her ember buys time, and his Ash Runner Sense wakes: kills earn miles, power grows. They trek—raiders bleed, storms burn—Torv’s machete sings (+500 miles, Dune Dash), Lysa’s fire cuts deep. Krax’s dogs tear closer—ember-teeth glint—when the Core cracks, whispering: “Free me, claim all.” Truth hits: Lysa’s bounty’s fake—Krax wants the Core that cursed the Reach. Torv’s past crew died for it—he’s bound to the ash. Miles climb (Ash Veil, 1,000)—lungs scar, Lysa’s shard burns her grip. At the Dune Wall, Krax looms—Torv carves, Lysa flares—Core shatters, Reach shakes. Warlord falls—shards rain—but Torv’s ash-coated, Lysa’s bleeding. A new ember glows west—next run calls. Grind, fire, survival—will Torv and Lysa outrun the curse, or burn in it?

In the hands of the Unfair, would you dance and win? In the hands of the Fairest would yourself at glee? in the hands of the God... would you feel safe?

Gods, it was boiling in this useless excuse for a kingdom. Or maybe it felt that way because Celaena Sardothien had been lounging on the lip of the terra-cotta roof since midmorning, an arm flung over her eyes, slowly baking in the sun like the loaves of flat-bread the city’s poorest citizens left on their windowsills because they couldn’t afford brick ovens. And gods, she was sick of flatbread—teggya, they called it.

This was supposed to be just a dance, but the way he held me said otherwise. His grip on my waist was firm, almost possessive, pulling me flush against his body.He spun me around effortlessly, my back now pressed against his solid chest. A deep chuckle rumbled from him, his breath warm against my neck."Are you trying to tempt me?" he asked, his voice thick with something dark and unspoken. I barely had time to process his words before I felt it-hard and pressing against me. My breath caught, heat spreading through me as realization struck."What?" I whispered, my voice barely audible. His hands slid down, gripping my hips as he pulled me even closer. "Because it's working," he murmured, his lips grazing my ear, sending a rush of electricity through me.
