Ashen's Gate

'Some Gates lead to answers. Others, to the end of all that is.' The universe is stitched together by unstable Gates, where magic flows between worlds and entire civilizations rise, decay, and disappear. Ashen is a Wanderer, a traveler who crosses these fractured realms in search of the one person he refuses to give up on—his missing mother. Armed with Resonance-forged weapons and accompanied by Nyra, an AI Host Companion Device, he follows a trail scattered across forgotten kingdoms, haunted ruins, and worlds on the brink of collapse. But he soon realises that every Gate opens to more than another destination. Each world holds its own history, its own people, and its own tragedies. Every answer uncovers deeper mysteries. Every clue leads to new dangers. And the closer Ashen comes to the truth, the more he begins to suspect that his mother's disappearance is only one thread in a far greater story—one that could decide the fate of every world connected by the Gates. Some journeys are about finding someone. Others reveal what the universe has been trying to hide. ———————————————————————— Current upload schedule: M / W / F Enjoy the read!
