It is a world where the necromancer, Pirwa, extends his power over the remaining kingdoms using the cruel butchery of his undead 'gravers'. Pirwa plans to unleash his hordes upon the last two bastions of those who follow the ways of the Chara.

The fortress island of Charax is one spot that stands in the way of the necromancer. However, the fortress is much like the society, a decaying symbol of the past. Strict social and economic stratification allows the Chara to control the island along with the help of pirates who dominate the waters.

When an offer of quick wealth leads Hilko, a young smuggler, into his betrayal. The man uses his ability to communicate with ghosts to aid in his escape. Ending up on a ship filled with pirates, Hilko slowly understands the power of the object he's stolen. In his quest to avoid the 'gravers' and comrades with ulterior motives, Hilko discovers that true friendship and loyalty can come from any social class, living and dead.

Heir of Ash and Shadow

24 parts Ongoing Mature

They feared her magic. They should have feared her will. The nightmares were only the beginning. Xorella never asked to inherit a broken kingdom. After the brutal murders of her brother and mother-crimes whispered to be the work of the Witches of Criudor-she stands as the last living heir to a throne bathed in blood. Her father, the king, rules with secrets and silence, and the shadows surrounding her family's legacy only grow darker. But something ancient stirs beneath her skin. Magic-wild, untamed, and forbidden-awakens in her veins, a force once thought to have died with the old queens. As treachery coils through the palace halls and war brews beyond the stars, Xorella must decide what kind of ruler she will become: a puppet of the crown, or a queen forged in shadow and flame. In a world where trust is betrayal and love turns to ash, power alone is not enough. To reclaim her kingdom, she must embrace the very magic that destroyed it.
