THE REMNANT CITIES

POV: Multiple (Ceres, Xavier, Kaelenna, Elian, Leyra)

The Charred Spine Mountains—6Months Later

The first city to rise was Elaris.

They did not call it by its former name—Flamehold. That name had burned with the crown.

Elaris meant "rooted fire" in the old tongue. Not a weapon. Not a throne. Just warmth, shared and eternal.

Ceres stood at the gate of the city, her cloak dusted with ash and her hands stained with ink. She had been helping draft walls, not decrees. And for the first time in her life, she found satisfac

    THE CODEX ASHESPOV: Ceres, Xavier, Child Witness (Unnamed)The River Lira—Where the Flame First SangThe sky wore grey like silk, looking a little foggy.A soft wind moved through the high trees, rustling leaf and root alike, as if nature itself were holding its breath. The waters of the River Lira, once the silent witness to bloodlines and broken pacts, flowed smooth and unhurried—carrying the weight of things too sacred to speak aloud.Here—beneath the northern ridge where Ceres first whispered Nya's name into the world—the Codex had once been read aloud to kings.Now, its ashes would be scatt

    THE LAST CORONATIONPOV: Xavier, Ceres, CouncilThe Ember Spire—DawnThe bells did not ring.For the first time in Flamewatch’s long history, no royal horns sounded. No red banners unfurled from the upper citadel. And yet, the people gathered.Thousands lined the ridge outside the Ember Spire, drawn not by summons but by instinct—by the whisper of something ending and something else beginning.Ceres stood before the open balcony, high above them all, clad not in armor nor the embroidered flame-robes of the monarchs before her, bu

    ARION'S FALLPOV: Ceres/ArionThe Tower Below Flamewatch—DuskThe lowest chamber of the Flamewatch keep was no longer a prison—it was a shrine to silence.Ceres descended the spiral stairway alone, each step echoing like a judgment in stone. No guards followed. No torches burned. The walls, once pulsing with wardlight, had dimmed after Nya's choice dissolved the Codex. Magic didn't linger here anymore.It refused to.She paused at the final arch, her hand brushing the cold iron gate. Inside, Arion knelt on the stone floor, wrists unbou

    THE CHOICE OF THE CHILDPOV: Ceres / Xavier / Nya (Vision Realms)The Dreamflame Temple—DuskThe Codex pulsed on the altar like a living wound.Ceres stood in front of it, silent, her hands folded before her. Xavier stood behind her, arms crossed, jaw tense. Kaelenna, Maera, and the remaining Ember Council ringed the flame chamber in wary silence, as if waiting for thunder to follow lightning.The Codex had opened on its own. Again.Its pages no longer held written prophecy.They held reflections.Moving images of fire, past and present—battles, births, the old kings, the vanished queens, and the child walking barefoot through the ruins of a burning world.Ceres whispered, "It's calling her."Maera nodded. "Or she's calling it."Xavier took a step forward. "And what happens if she answers?"Before anyone could respond, the flame altar convulsed—once, then again, bursting into a flare of white-gold fire. The heat did not burn, but it was summoned.Then came the voice.Not loud. Not fri

    THE FATHER’S GHOSTPOV: XavierNight clung to the ruins of Hollowfen like a second skin.Xavier stood alone beneath the scorched arch of the keep’s fallen tower, the distant embers of war still glowing beyond the trees. His blade leaned beside him, half-buried in ash. Around him, the battlefield had fallen silent—but not quiet. The kind of silence that held breath, waited for something unsaid.He hadn’t slept since Ceres stepped through the Sealed Gate. Not properly. Even now, he hadn’t told her what he’d seen, what he kept seeing.He closed his eyes, and there it was again
