Silla Ek Mhurkum is just barely a nobleman. One who has very little backing and no prospects. What he does have is knowledge on how to swing a sword, familiarity with military stratagem and a hunger to prove himself. In the Royal Mirlthanian war machine, that has to count for something. Ayanna Wu Kyrian knows that the meritocracy is not fair. Which is why she's spent her entire life trying to manipulate its rules, but when she finally thinks that her days of struggle are over, she's awoken by a frustrating twist of fate. But if something so cheap as fate thinks it can stop her, it is sorely mistaken. From mistake and curse, both Silla and Aya will rise to the heights of legend. *Inspired by Evan Winters "Rage Of Dragons" and Alexey Osadchucks "Last Life".* Cover by: @d0moniqueWrites NOTE: None of this story was written through AI.

What the Kingdom forgot still stirs. "Sɛ ɔman werɛ fi baabi a ofi a, sika a otu no bɛyɛ mfuturo." (When a people forget where they come from, even the gold they mine turns to dust.) - Akan Proverb Before the throne, there was memory. The kingdom of Ashanti did not rise from conquest alone - it rose from covenant. Its clans carried sacred symbols, living philosophies known as Adinkra. But when Queen Abla Pokou defied the council, the kingdom chose stability over truth. Her name was erased from history. Years later, a boy named Kwaku begins to resist the same power that erased her. In a world where memory can be rewritten, forgetting may be the most powerful weapon of all.
