Only in truth, the Lords will abandon their thrones
And the Unkindled will rise:
Nameless, accursed undead; unfit even to be cinder
And so it is - that ash seeketh embers.

When she awakes within a shambled cemetery, her memories muddled and body withered,  poor Unkindled Ash is thrown head first into a world mired in ruin, infested with corruption, and covered in ash. A world that, along with it's primordial First Flame, now fades once more.

The Lord's have abandoned their thrones, and it's up to her, whether she likes it or not, to return them to their mantles. For if the Lords will not return to their thrones themselves -

Let them return as cinders.

Heaven's Crown, Hell's Heart by ayoutuberfan
33 parts Complete Mature
In the celestial realms, Ash is no ordinary angel; she is the heir to Heaven's radiant throne, born from divine light and destined to rule the skies. Perfect in the eyes of her people, she embodies purity, grace, and the hope of a kingdom eternal. Yet beneath the celestial façade, Ash harbors a secret: a restless heart, yearning for freedom and truth beyond the perfection she has always known. As the day of her coronation approaches, Ash finds herself drowning in the weight of expectations. Every decision is scrutinized, every step measured, and every whisper around her speaks of duty, devotion, and destiny. But to Ash, Heaven feels less like a paradise and more like a gilded cage-a realm of suffocating rules and unyielding traditions. Shadows haunt her dreams, pulling her toward the forbidden lands below. She questions everything: her role, her beliefs, and the rigid system she was born to uphold. One fateful night, the whispers of rebellion grow too loud to ignore. Defying the sacred laws of Heaven, Ash flees from the golden spires and eternal choirs, diving headfirst into the abyss. She seeks not destruction but answers-a truth she believes can only be found in the chaos of Hell, the domain of her kingdom's ancient adversary. Hell is not the fiery inferno she was taught to fear. It is a land of raw, untamed power, where beings of shadow and flame thrive in a world without rules. There, Ash discovers a realm brimming with beauty in its brokenness and freedom in its defiance of order. For the first time, she is not bound by the chains of perfection. Yet, her presence disrupts the delicate balance of Hell. Angels do not belong in the underworld, and her arrival sends shockwaves through its rulers and inhabitants. For the first time, she is not bound by the chains of perfection. Made by ChatGPT
My Cursed Luck (K/DA x Male Reader) by WoffleStomp

- (This story was made when I was still growing as a writer and a person, you have been warned.) - Y/N is an archivist, scratch that, an "information artist", and he likes to believe he's cursed, cursed with bad luck, resulting in the constant lack of optimism, depression. However, his past few years have been pretty tame as far as just going to work, going home to play games, and then taking part in game nights or jam nights with people in his townhouse. - His childhood was rough, filled with traumatic memories and situations with his family, not to mention he wasn't unique. Of all the people in Runeterra, he never had an ability. No tails, no wings, no spells to be casted, he was just... powerless, or so he thought. - All of it may have changed when a got a birthday present from one of his online friends that would change his life forever. So, maybe his luck began to turn, or perhaps, did it even change at all? [MINI-SPECIALS OR CONTINUATIONS YET TO COME!] - P.S. This story is mature so expect the bad stuff, and I do not own the rights of most images or direct quotes in my work, however you will be credited if need be. I used inspiration from Just My Luck by Depore, originally a K/DA fanfic, find his work on Royal Road, The Manager series books by IvanBullock, and many more. - P.P.S. Personally, I think this story sucks compared to some of my NEWEST work (Dual Venture and beyond), but I of all people should understand that this story is not for everyone. PLEASE think before you comment! You'll catch this beautiful feature called a mute otherwise. :)

Song of Ashes

67 parts Complete

A jealous, vengeful goddess. A ruined land. A woman alone, desperate to survive. When the goddess Kogoren was betrayed by one of her worshipers, she took out her rage on her realm. In her righteous anger, she shattered the continent, raised razor-sharp mountains from the earth, and turned clear streams into burning rivers of molten stone. Fire rained from the sky and ashes blanketed cities and fields. The eruption of the Queen's Crest, Kogoren's holy mountain, killed every one of her priests. The world ended that day. Kogoren's people prayed. They wept. And when no help nor mercy came, they were lost. The Cataclysm was many years ago, before Sarka was born. The broken land and the hopeless people who survived it are all Sarka has ever known. No one speaks of the goddess now; her dark legacy is a shadow over the starved realm that still bears her name, a place where the best one can hope for is to survive the day. One day, a brush with death grants Sarka tragic clarity: if she stays in Kogoren, she will live a half-life punctuated with danger, hunger, and pain. What if there is a world out there beyond the reach of the goddess who left her children to die? Cover by @Abyss-of-Crazy
