Of Gods and Ashes
Of Gods and Ashes is a sweeping tale of forgotten empires, immortal rulers, dragons, and ancient magic. As kingdoms crumble and old truths are unearthed, the line between savior and conqueror begins to disappear.
Millions believed the war had already been won.
They were wrong.
Across the fractured lands of Epheria, the Ash Thrones have awakened. Buried beneath mountains and sealed for millennia, the last of the God-Kings return to reclaim the world they once ruled. Their arrival shatters fragile alliances, plunging nations into chaos as entire cities vanish beneath storms of fire and ash.
Far from the halls of kings, a reluctant warrior discovers that the blood flowing through his veins carries the final key to an ancient prison—one powerful enough to either bind the gods forever or unleash them upon the world.
As dragons choose their final riders and forgotten powers stir beneath the earth, every kingdom must decide where its loyalty lies.
Because this war is no longer for crowns.
It is for the right of mortals to shape their own destiny.
When the ashes settle...
Only gods will remember who lit the first flame.
