A little glimpse from Chapter 66. Maybe we should talk about what happened last night first...
          	~~~
          	"Are you not bothered?"
          	"Of what?" Vael asked.
          	Anna looked at him for a while before answering. "Forgetting things..."
          	"No." He breathed quietly. "If I don't remember them, then maybe they weren't mine to keep."
          	"Do you remember what happened last night?" Anna rubbed her eye.
          	"Yeah. You came down here, limping. And fell on me. You smelled like wine, then you kissed me. You held my hand and then you slept." Vael said it all so casually. "That's it."
          	Her pupil widened, her single organic eye opening wide while the other remained its usual mechanical stare. "What?" Her breathing quickened, her chest rising and falling faster.
          	"You... you heard me. I guess you were drunk."
          	Anna shot to her feet. "Yeah. That... that probably wasn't mine to keep."

I guess there is only one question in this chapter: "What happens if Vael gets kissed by someone?" Yeah... that's basically one thing in this chapter HAHHAHAHA 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Just published Chapter 65 - The False Bearer.
          
          And yeah, finally, Vier's journey in The Pit has reached its end. After all those chapters, he finally managed to leave the Pit... but of course, that's not the end of his journey. Whatever he's actually looking for is still somewhere ahead. Hahaha.
          
          If you want to follow Vier's entire journey through The Pit, the chapters are: 42, 43, 47, 48, 55, 56, and 65. Though... you probably should read Chapters 37 and 38 first. Actually, maybe just read all of them. HAHAHAHA.
          
          Anyway, goodbye. Ciao. ❤

Random Ashen Vein update:
          At this point, the story has grown into four major parallel plotlines, rotating between 7 different limited third-person POV characters.
          
          And yes, these are the major threads right now:
          1. Lunaria, Kurumi, Arthur, Azazel & Jack: Finding the Cure, and probably finding Vael.
          2. Vael: Finding Himself, or finding nothing. I don't know.
          3. Vier: Finding His God.
          4. Lucyna & Zenon: Finding Her Brother & Protecting What Remains.
          
          And somehow, these four branches are all slowly moving toward each other. Oh, Aurelion... my head wants to explode now. But still... I love writing every part of it❤

          A little review of Ashen Vein from @mona_risa and honestly, this one means a lot to me ❤️
          
          Bwehehe *beaming face with smiling eyes* I honestly wasn't expecting this :D Ashen Vein has received three recognitions at the Starlight Awards 2026 - Season One:
          
          MOST BEAUTIFUL PROSE AWARD
          "Gracefully written with lyrical elegance, transforming ordinary moments into deeply emotional and unforgettable scenes."
          3rd Place Runner-Up - STORY OF THE YEAR
          3rd Place Runner-Up - JUDGE'S CHOICE AWARD
          
          Seeing Ashen Vein among the recognized stories is something I'm genuinely grateful for. And yes... the story is still unfinished. So I guess there's still plenty of work to do XD
          
          Deepest thanks to @mona_risa for hosting such a wonderful awards event. And congratulations to all the other winners and participants!!! ❤️
          And of course, to all the readers who have stuck with Vael, Lunaria, Kurumi, Zenon, Azazel, Lucyna, Vier, and so many other Veinland's population... thank you! ❤️❤️❤️

Hey guys! :D
          
          It's been a while since I've actually been around here and interacted with people properly, so I figured I'd make a little post before I suddenly reappear in everyone's comment section like nothing happened. XD
          
          I've been pretty buried in Ashen Vein lately, although... there was a slight problem.
          
          I downloaded Conan Exiles.
          
          That was nine days ago, or more, umm...
          
          I'm now level 48, I have a new base, a tavern, several dead Thralls, one particularly unfortunate expedition into a swamp, and a guy named Kirk who is apparently the strongest person in my entire settlement.
          
          So technically, I have been doing important research. Very important research. Definitely not procrastinating. ...Okay, maybe a little >.<
          
          Anyway, I'm finally getting back to Ashen Vein and continuing Chapter 63. I'm also realizing that I've fallen pretty far behind on catching up with everyone here, so I'll be spending some time wandering around Wattpad again and checking out what everyone has been working on. If you've published something new, started a new story, or just want to say hi, feel free to drop a comment. I'd genuinely love to catch up with you guys again. ❤️
          
          And to everyone who's still following Ashen Vein despite my occasional disappearance into another video game... thank you. <3
          
          Now excuse me, I have a Lucyna and Zenon scene to finish before Conan kidnaps me again XD

bagasaghfar

Hahaha perhaps a little too much fun XD 
            And hey, you actually made it all the way to Chapter 34 already! Thank you for sticking with Ashen Vein this far, I really appreciate it friend ❤️

Chapter 60 is out! Hey Vael
          
          There isn't really anything big happening in this chapter. Just two people having a 'conversation' in one room, or is there? I don't know. You tell me ;)
          
          ~~~
          
          Vael's gaze drifted down to her trembling lips. "Now you're lying." He let out another breath. "I did... hurt you."
          
          He just didn't know the wound he had left behind wasn't a physical one. And in that very moment, he didn't even realize he was hurting her again.
