EMBERWAKE

Uchiha_shisui
*Emberwake* *Survival. Rebirth.Revolution.* In the cursed ruins of Blackmoor Orphanage, where hope dies young and the strong prey on the weak, a boy awakens with memories not his own—but of a life lived, battles lost, and a world that burned. *Thorne Blackwood* has died once. He will not die again. Armed with foresight and fury, Thorne begins to reshape the broken slums into the beating heart of a new empire: the *Ember Syndicate*—a ruthless network of assassins, spies, and exiles sworn to burn down the corrupt kingdoms that cast them aside. At his side are blades forged in shadow: - *Ruby*, the red-haired killer reclaiming her name and past, - *Lysena Valehart*, a fallen noble with lightning in her veins and vengeance in her heart, - And a growing legion of orphans turned warriors. As empires close in, old gods stir, and traitors rise from within, Thorne must walk a knife's edge between savior and monster. Love, loyalty, and blood will shape the fire to come. Because sometimes the only way to save the world... *...is to let it burn.* ---

Ascending Pride

What happens when a dragon gets sacrificed by his mate for his blessings? Blame the bird. What happens when a fish wants to rule the skies? Drag the bird down. What happens when a fox wants revenge? Seek out the bird. What happens when humans are lied to for generations? Coarse the bird. What does any of that have to do with the bird who most have never even met? How do they subdue a being that not even beast gods were able to defeat? How do they force a bird to stop flying? How do they kill a being... that cannot be killed? ... They break his heart... over, and over, and over. It's been over a thousand years since the beast god sealed itself away to heal from it's injuries. 700 years since the dragon was sacrificed. 600 years since a feathered snake started accepting human "wives". Almost 500 years since his heart was shattered. 300 years since history was rewritten. 200 years since the fish sent out a call. 50 years since the fox was tricked. 20 years since he gave his broken heart to a young warrior. 10 years since he was once again betrayed. 2 years since the bird found himself in a new body with only a fraction of his memories. Now, the most precious piece of his heart must either return, or bond with another. Now, the blessings from the sacrificed dragon have become a curse. Now, a young warrior has become leader of her people. Now, three nations are on the verge of extinction. Now, a snake wants his covenant honored. Now, a bird shakes his head as watches with a sigh. So few will live, while so many will die.
