When Shizo and Dani set out to find the mythical Ember, their mission was simple: end the war, cleanse the poisoned air, and save humanity from its slow death.
But legends are never as simple as they seem.
The Ember isn't just a glowing stone-it speaks. It tempts. It offers Shizo the one thing he's always dreamed of: powers beyond imagination. With one reckless wish, the world is shattered, and every human awakens with superhuman abilities. Some rise as protectors. Others descend into chaos.
Now the world is burning all over again.
And Dani is left standing in the ashes-without her best friend, and with the impossible question:
Who is going to help reset the world and restore balance.

Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash vol. 1
Fear, survival, instinct. Thrown into a foreign land with nothing but hazy memories and the knowledge of their name, they can feel only these three emotions resonating deep within their souls. A group of strangers is given no other choice than to accept the only paying job in this game-like world-the role of a soldier in the Reserve Army-and eliminate anything that threatens the peace in their new world, Grimgar. When all of the stronger candidates join together, those left behind must create a party together to survive: Manato, a charismatic leader and priest; Haruhiro, a nervous thief; Yume, a cheerful hunter; Shihoru, a shy mage; Moguzo, a kind warrior; and Ranta, a rowdy dark knight. Despite its resemblance to one, this is no game-there are no redos or respawns; it is kill or be killed. It is now up to this ragtag group of unlikely fighters to survive together in a world where life and death are separated only by a fine line.Complete

After witnessing her home consumed by the monstrous Hunger, Kaelin embarks on a perilous journey to master the ember's power and rally scattered survivors against the creeping darkness. Guided by allies Bren and the enigmatic sage Veyrix, Kaelin confronts internal and external battles alike: the ember's fire threatens to consume her from within even as enemies gather beyond the horizon. Among these foes is Malrik, once her closest friend and fellow flamebearer, now corrupted and driven to claim the ember's power for himself. As the world teeters on the brink of annihilation, Kaelin must choose between wielding the ember as a weapon of vengeance or a beacon of hope. In a climactic battle marked by fire and shadow, she confronts Malrik-not just to defeat him, but to offer redemption. Together, they spark a fragile renewal that promises a future beyond ruin. The Last Ember is a story of sacrifice, friendship, and the eternal struggle between light and darkness - a journey from ashes to dawn, where the greatest power lies not in destruction, but in the courage to rebuild.Complete
Chasing the Ember:Echoes of the Void
--- CHASING THE EMBER: ECHOES OF THE VOID In the end, it wasn't strength that saved them. It was the refusal to break. --- WORLDVIEW SUMMARY The Setting: A Dying Earth and the Last Ark Earth is uninhabitable. Scarred by war, disease, and climate collapse, the planet no longer supports life. The Emberwake Ark is humanity's final escape: a city-sized spacecraft holding 65,000 of Earth's last survivors, adrift in the void. No weapons. No military. Just thinkers, engineers, broken families, scavengers, and those who paid, tricked, or clawed their way aboard. Supplies are critically low. Food, oxygen, water, and mental stability are all degrading. No one's unscarred - some physically, others emotionally - except one man who's held together by a very thin, but unbroken, thread. --- The Universe: Cosmic Terror Meets Myth-Made-Flesh Space is not silent. It is alive with ancient, unknowable forces. Humanity begins to discover that myths weren't stories. They were warnings. Earth's ancient pantheons-Greek, Norse, Aztec, Egyptian, Chinese, Japanese-are distorted reflections of real cosmic beings. Entities that live between stars. These include: Jörmungandr - A space-leviathan that coils around dead stars. Apep's Spawn - Shadow-born creatures that eat dreams and time. Fenrir-class Entities - Beasts that hunt on instinct and collapse reality around them. Watchers - Beings that only observe. Their gaze erases people from memory and time. The Sun-Eater - An endless void that mimics stars and consumes anything seeking warmth. Quetzacryon - A radiant, godlike being that gives paradise... before incinerating all who submit to it. These aren't gods. They are forces. Intelligent, instinctive, and indifferent. Time loops, parallel realities, psychological traps, shifting laws of physics - the universe itself resists comprehension. ---Complete
