THE CHRONICLES OF YTHRANNOR - The Ashes of What Never Burned

After returning to his home village of Mahran, Arien Varoth finds only silence and cold ashes—remnants of a calamity that left no flames but consumed everything living. Haunted by memories of his family and guided by fragments of the past, Arien discovers a mysterious black stone, the remnant of a forbidden power known as the Static Flame. Determined to uncover the truth and honor a promise to his lost sister, he ventures into the cursed desert of Kael’Zyth, a place where echoes of forgotten pain and strange magic shape reality itself. Along his journey, Arien faces the ancient labyrinth beneath the sands, confronting both visions of the past and the monstrous beings born from collective loss and memory. Guided by cryptic mentors and unexpected allies like Nyra, a warrior with her own secrets, Arien must face the darkness within and around him. Each trial brings him closer to understanding the true nature of the Static Flame—a fire that does not burn, but erases—and the cost of wielding such power. As the labyrinth’s shadows close in and truths once buried come to light, Arien realizes that some flames can only be faced by embracing both pain and hope. His quest is not only for vengeance, but for meaning—a journey through ash, oaths, and memories, where the greatest battle is against forgetting who you are.
