Ashen Relics

Waking with no memory in a blood-soaked, brutal arena on a living island where the ground hums with terrifying life is just the beginning for Kairon and a handful of others. Marked by an unseen force, they are thrust into grotesque duels against foes twisted by mechanical horrors and something far older. Victory isn't just survival; it's a horrifying transformation. Survivors are left wearing 'relics'—disturbing pieces of their opponents that cling to their minds like living memories.



These relics whisper forgotten names and offer unnatural abilities, but they come at a terrible cost: corrupting the soul and twisting the wearer's humanity. As the survivors band together and their chaotic abilities emerge, they uncover a chilling truth: the island is a sentient being. The arena is no accident. Something beneath the ash remembers, collecting the horrifying relics of the fallen.



But not all crowns are meant to be refused, and the true price of defiance may be more than they can bear. Can they escape the Ruin's grasp, or will they become its next twisted collection?



"Ashen Relics" is a three-volume epic tale of courage, friendship, survival, identity, redemption, and the unbreakable spirit of youth—a gripping adventure that promises to resonate with anyone who dares to dream.
