In the kingdom of Solrune, Ash Revenhart has lived his life without a Mark of Origin, the symbol of magic that defines one’s place in the world. On the Day of Awakening, Ash remains unmarked—until the orphanage he calls home is destroyed by fire. Barely surviving, he discovers an ancient power deep beneath the city and forms a pact with a mysterious spirit, unlocking a dangerous form of magic known as Veilcraft. Now, Ash must navigate a world that sees him as both a threat and a savior. With the Veil inside him, he uncovers secrets about the Ashen—those born without marks—and their connection to an ancient evil. As he gains power, Ash faces enemies from the Dominions of Crest, including the fierce noblewoman Velka Aurin, and must choose whether to embrace the darkness within or protect the world from it.

Episode 1: The Unmarked
The streets of Solrune were alive with anticipation as the Day of Awakening began. Market stalls stood abandoned, save for the occasional hurried merchant trying to make last-minute sales. Children laughed and ran, their voices ringing through the cold morning air.But Ash Revenhart sat alone on the worn stone steps of the orphanage, his head bent low, eyes locked on the slick cobblestones. The weight of the world pressed against his chest, and he couldn’t bring himself to look up, not yet.“Today’s the day,” he whispered to himself, almost in disbelief. Today was supposed to be different. He had hoped for so long that he might finally receive the mark, like the other children. The mark that would grant him a place in the world. A Mark of Origin.But as he glanced up, he saw them—the others. Children from all over the city, running, laughing, their bodies glowing with the fresh, radiant symbols newly etched into their skin. The marks were as varied as the colors of the sky. Red, blue,

Rise of the Forgotten Episode 10: From Ashes to Flame
Ash sat in silence at the edge of the Whisperers’ sanctuary, staring out over the mist-covered cliffs. The memory of the Veilborne’s attack was fresh in his mind, the echo of their dark energy still clinging to the air. For the first time, he had truly seen the scale of the threat he now faced—not just enemies, but forces that could rewrite the laws of nature itself.But he had also seen something else: his own strength.“I felt it,” Ash whispered. “I felt the Veil obey me. Just for a moment.”Cael, standing a few feet behind him, nodded. “You didn’t just resist it—you bent it to your will. That’s not something even the Whisperers can do easily.”He turned to her, uncertainty flickering in his eyes. “But what if I lose control next time? What if I become like them—the Veilborne?”Cael walked over and sat beside him. “That’s the choice you’ll face every time you use it. The Veil doesn’t grant power freely. It demands something in return. That’s why most fail… they give it too much.”As

Ash stood in the heart of the Whisperers’ sanctuary, his mind still reeling from the Trial of Spirit. The weight of the Veil had lifted somewhat, but a new sense of urgency had settled in its place. He could feel the power of the Veil coursing through him, yet there was something else—a shadow lurking at the edges of his awareness, waiting for the moment to strike.Cael stood beside him, her expression tense. "You’ve done well, Ash. But the trials were just the beginning. Now that you’ve passed, the Veil will draw attention. There are those who seek to control it. And you."Ash’s brow furrowed. "Who are they? Why would anyone want the Veil?""The Veil is a source of unimaginable power," Cael replied, her voice low, almost grim. "To control the Veil means to control the very fabric of reality. It’s a force that can reshape the world, bend time, and twist fate. There are those who would do anything to harness that power—for their own purposes."Ash felt a chill run down his spine. "And

The atmosphere in the valley had changed, the air heavy with an almost palpable tension. The Whisperers watched from the shadows, their faces unreadable. Ash stood at the center of the sacred grounds, the final trial awaiting him.The woman in dark robes, who had guided him through the first two trials, approached him once again. Her eyes gleamed beneath her hood, her voice steady but filled with an unspoken weight."The Trial of Spirit," she said, her voice like the whisper of a thousand voices in unison. "This trial will not test your physical strength nor your will. It will test your very soul. You must face the darkness within you and conquer it. Only then will you earn the right to control the Veil."Ash swallowed, feeling the weight of her words sink in. He had already fought physical monsters, and he had faced his fears, but this—this was something else. The Veil inside him was not just a force to be controlled; it was a part of him, a reflection of his deepest fears, regrets,

The first light of dawn broke over the valley, casting long shadows across the stone structures that dotted the Whisperers' sanctuary. Ash stood at the entrance of the sacred grounds, his body tense with anticipation. The Veil within him seemed to stir, as if it knew the trials were about to begin.Cael, standing beside him, gave him a sharp look. "Remember, Ash. The trials are not just physical. They’ll test your mind, your heart, and most importantly, your soul. Stay focused. You must prove that you can control the Veil, not let it control you."Ash nodded, trying to steady his racing thoughts. The weight of the Veil in him had been growing ever since he stepped foot in the sanctuary. He couldn’t explain why, but the very air around him felt charged with an energy that resonated with the darkness inside him.A figure appeared at the entrance of the valley, a woman draped in dark robes, her eyes gleaming beneath her hood. "The trials begin now," she announced, her voice like the rust

The village seemed quieter than usual as Ash returned, the familiar sounds of life fading into the distance. It had only been a few days since he’d left, but it felt like an eternity. The weight of the Veil pressed down on him with every step, urging him to hurry, to find answers before it consumed him completely.As he approached the village square, he caught sight of his old friend, Cael, standing near the edge of the marketplace. Cael’s expression was unreadable, his sharp eyes scanning the crowd as if searching for something—or someone. When their gazes met, Cael gave a subtle nod, acknowledging Ash’s return.Ash walked over to him, his mind still reeling from the vision at the temple. "Cael," he said, his voice low. "I need to talk to you."Cael studied him for a moment, his eyes narrowing slightly. "Something’s wrong, isn’t it?" he said quietly. "You look like you’ve seen a ghost."Ash couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly. "Something like that."The two walked in silence toward th

The wind howled through the trees as Ash trekked through the dense forest, the moonlight barely breaking through the canopy above. His heart pounded in his chest as he pressed forward, his mind focused on the task ahead.He had no choice but to seek out the ancient temple—the one that was said to hold the answers to the Veil’s origins. If he was going to have any hope of controlling the darkness that had taken root within him, he needed to understand it, to learn how to harness its power before it consumed him completely.The whispers of the Veil were growing louder in his mind, its voice slipping through the cracks of his thoughts like a serpent slithering through the grass. You cannot escape me, Ash. I am with you always.He gritted his teeth, pushing the voice aside. The last thing he needed was to lose his focus now.As he moved deeper into the forest, the trees seemed to close in around him, their twisted branches reaching out like skeletal hands. It was as if the very forest its

The smoke filled the sky like a thick, suffocating cloud, casting a shadow over the village. Ash's heart raced as he stood frozen in the doorway, staring at the destruction unfolding before him. The Veil’s power had awoken fully, and there was no turning back now.People were running in all directions, shouting in panic. Ash’s feet moved instinctively, carrying him toward the source of the chaos. As he sprinted through the village, he could hear the screams—the terrified cries of those who were too slow to escape.When he reached the clearing where the stone had been, he froze. The symbol was glowing brighter than ever before, its eerie light pulsating with the rhythm of a heartbeat. But that wasn’t what stopped him. What stopped him was the figure standing in the center of the clearing, bathed in the light of the Veil.It was the same cloaked figure from the night before—the one who had warned him of his fate.“Ash,” the figure said, his voice smooth and chilling. “You’re too late.”

Ash couldn’t shake the image of the twisted figures, their faces contorted by the power of the Veil. It was like a shadow was creeping into his very soul, pulling him deeper into its dark embrace. As much as he tried to push the thought away, it lingered, gnawing at him like a festering wound.The morning after the vision, Ash found himself standing at the edge of the village clearing, staring down at the dark symbol etched into the stone. It had a pulsing energy, like a heartbeat—alive and patient. His hand still tingled from where he had touched it.He glanced around. The Matron was with the other survivors, organizing the rebuilding efforts, while the elder who had discovered the stone had left to fetch more villagers to help with the excavation. For a moment, Ash was alone. His heart thundered in his chest as he stepped closer to the symbol again.The air around him seemed to hum with the presence of the Veil, like it was waiting for him to make his move. He reached out tentativel

Ash’s heart was still racing. His chest heaved with every breath as he tried to come to terms with what had just happened. He had faced the flames, saved the children, and now stood before a man cloaked in shadow. The weight of his actions felt heavy, and yet, the power coursing through him felt alive—almost intoxicating.The hooded figure before him stepped closer, his movements slow but purposeful. The darkness that surrounded him seemed to cling to the air, warping reality around them.Ash instinctively took a step back. “Who are you?” His voice shook, but his gaze never wavered.The man didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he raised a hand, his fingers glowing faintly with the same shadowy energy that had surged through Ash earlier. “I see you’ve already begun to feel the effects of the Veil. It’s a power few ever understand, but one that changes everything.”Ash didn’t like the sound of that. “The Veil? What does that even mean? You said it’s the power of the forgotten. Forgotten
