Novel & Cerita Flame Art Ashes Of War

“Everything.” The altar’s surface ripples like water disturbed by snow.And then I’m not standing in the church anymore. I’m standing in a field of frost under a sky that isn’t a sky—layers of memory stacked like glass. Shapes move within it. Figures without faces. Tall. Still. Watching.

As if she had already chosen the world she wanted to live in. I rose. My knees left prints in the mud, half filled by the river’s edge. When I stood, the cold air pulled me back into myself. The moon trembled across the surface, broken by current. The ash began to move downstream, slow and gleaming, as if the river itself was carrying the dead toward whatever waited for them. I turned away and followed the sound of fire rising in the distance. Kael (POV) The ash came first.

The flames that wrapped around me did not belong to the battlefield. They swallowed the clash of steel, the cries of wolves, the roar of Damian’s voice until all I could hear was silence and the shard’s molten whisper. My body stilled even as my soul was dragged elsewhere, into a place of fire older than my breath, older than my name. The world spun, and then I was no longer standing on the ramparts—I was standing in Ashara’s ruin.

Their fire flared faintly, pulsing in the same rhythm. They didn’t answer Troy. They didn’t need to. Because deep down, they already knew. The night of ashes had been a victory. And also the beginning of the real war.

"Please, Ryan, don't do this. He's your son! Please, don't take this from me!" But Ryan's mind was filled with anger and betrayal. He opened the urn and began to pour the ashes onto the ground. "No!" Sophia wailed, her cries echoing through the cemetery. She lunged forward, her hands clawing at the ashes as they scattered. The gray powder clung to her hair and skin, mixing with her tears as she wept uncontrollably. She pressed her head to the ground, her body trembling with sorrow. "My baby," she sobbed, her voice barely audible. "I’m so sorry… I’m so sorry…"

He noticed that the goddess had something called heart of the river, it looked like a small staff. Without that staff, the goddess would turn to water and the water would overflow. He didn’t know about this issue because when he asked the goddess, the goddess lied that without the staff, she turns to human and the sacrificed victims regains their freedom.

CASSANDRA The horrible sight before my eyes was the worst nightmare I’d ever seen, yet no matter how hard I pinched myself, it wasn’t going away. As the fire covered Asher’s body, his skin began to peel down. Soon, the black burnt skin became ashes, and then the ashes disappeared entirely and blew down the corridor. “No!” I screamed out of anger and sorrow. “No, no, no!” My lungs ached as I cried out, but I couldn’t stop. Tears spilled down my face like a river, and my vision started to break out with spots as I shook.

Tears streamed down my face, dripping into my father's ashes and staining them dark. I did not wipe my face. I did not respond to Stella. I did not look at Hudson, who stood beside her with an undisguised smirk. I reached out with trembling hands, gathering the ashes little by little, trying to put them back into the urn. "I'm sorry, Dad... I'm so sorry... this is my fault..." Hudson had his arm around Stella's waist. He let out a theatrical sigh. "Damon, don't take it too hard. The man is already dead. Besides, this was your own carelessness..."

Smoke curled high into the sky, thick and black, carrying with it the scent of ash and destruction. The screams of omegas and pups reached my ears, sharp and heart-wrenching. I turned to see the shelter nearby also swallowed by flames, its fragile structure collapsing under the weight of the inferno. Jasmine let out a deep, mournful howl, her voice echoing through me like a knife to the soul. Grief rooted me to the spot, my legs trembling as I watched everything I had ever known burn to the ground. Warriors were falling, their blood staining the earth. The chaos was overwhelming.
