City Of Ash And Red A

ash's of trice

"The world didn’t break Trice. It made him." In a world where the strong write the rules and the weak disappear without a name, Trice was born with nothing—not even a last name. Raised in a collapsing slum called The Gray Verge, Trice learned early that justice was a fantasy. His family? Erased in a political massacre the government called "necessary cleansing." The elite called it progress. Trice calls it debt—one the world now owes him. At fifteen, Trice is supposed to be dead. But instead, he returns, scarred, silent, eyes burning with a vengeance too large for his body to hold. From the ashes of forgotten children and ruined dreams, he claws his way into the underground—where gangs rule like kings, and corruption flows thicker than blood. But Trice is different. He doesn’t seek power for power’s sake. He doesn’t want to rule. He wants to ruin. Every family crest that turned a blind eye. Every politician who smiled through the slaughter. Every smiling hero who stood by while monsters wore medals. Along the way, Trice forms fragile bonds with others like him—broken youths with nothing left but rage. A swordsman cursed to forget his kills. A runaway princess who bleeds blue fire. A hacker who can’t leave his apartment but sees everything. Together, they are the Fangs of Nowhere—a blade aimed at the heart of a poisoned empire. But the deeper Trice digs, the more he sees that revenge is no straight line—it spirals. And something darker than men may be behind the suffering. The world didn’t just hurt him... it built him to burn. Now he must choose: Will he be a weapon of revenge? Or a symbol of rebellion?

[Discontinued] Crown of Ash and Bonds (Original Version)

Seraphina D’Lorien was raised to lead with grace, bound by duty, and destined to carry on her noble house’s legacy. As the Duchess of House D’Lorien and wife to the ambitious Alaric Vessant, she was meant to be a symbol of stability in a crumbling empire. Instead, she was accused of treason, chained at the pyre, and sentenced to burn. The empire turned its back. Her husband watched in silence. Her cousin Evelyne wept in public, but behind her tears was a smile no one else noticed. And only Evelyne knew that Seraphina was carrying a child. That secret died in the fire. Or so they thought. But Seraphina did not stay dead. She awakens in her chambers, unburned, unbound, and alive. Everything around her is exactly as it was, except now, she remembers everything. The lies. The betrayal. The flame. And the child she never got to protect. With no one aware of what truly happened, Seraphina pretends to resume her former life. But she no longer trusts, no longer hopes, and no longer believes justice will come on its own. By day, she smiles at her husband’s side. By night, she stalks the empire’s shadows, gathering secrets, unraveling documents, and finding cracks in the system that tried to erase her. Her quest leads her to Caelan Vorenthal, the Warden General, an enigmatic, masked warrior with no tolerance for corruption and a past as shadowed as her own. What begins as cautious cooperation becomes something deeper, as Seraphina uncovers a conspiracy stretching back years. Her marriage had been arranged not for love, but as a calculated maneuver. Her family’s fall was no accident. It was orchestrated. Her life, her title, even her pain were all used as leverage in a political game she never agreed to play. And now, she is rewriting the rules. Just as she prepares to move against the court, assassins strike. Seraphina survives, but the message is clear. Someone knows she is no longer a pawn. War brews in the corridors of power, and every ally she gains makes her more of a threat. Through ink, blade, and bloodless subterfuge, Seraphina prepares to dismantle the empire that once watched her burn. One forged document, one ruined house, one false oath at a time. The court believes she has been tamed. But Seraphina D’Lorien is no longer theirs to control. She is the flame reborn, and this time she decides who burns.
