Some monsters are born. Others are made when you fall in love with them. *** In Emberfall, the sky is never silent. Thunder cracks like war drums, and the land itself trembles under the weight of its fury. Wrath is not just a Sin here-it is a religion, a curse, and the reason the continent has never known peace. It lives in every scream of the wind, every clash of steel, and every heartbeat born with fire in its veins. To prevent the rise of the Sinsworn, Emberfall created the Ashbound Protocol-a brutal doctrine that hunts down every potential Vessel. Each year, seers scour the land for the child bearing the mark of Wrath. Once found, the Ashbound execute without mercy. No name, no burial, no remembrance. All to keep Wrath from waking again. But Logan survived. *** Date Started: May 3, 2025 Date Finished: May 26, 2025
