The Realm of Ash and Oaths

This started as something fun. A game. Just home-brew D&D campaign I started playing because I was missing my friends. But somewhere along the way with every dice roll, it became something more. This world began to breathe. The characters started making choices I didn’t expect, timelines. The story grew gained weight. Meaning. Emotion. Now it’s evolving into a book. An animated vision… it all started with this one character. In every city, he is someone new. A merchant’s clerk. A wandering sellsword. A ghost no one remembers clearly enough to describe. He moves through courts and gutters alike with equal ease, always one step ahead in the quiet game of cloak and dagger. Or so he believed. Because the game changes when the board begins to move without you. And in a realm built on ash and broken oaths, even ghosts can be hunted…. To my friends who never laughed at the ambition, who encouraged the madness, who listened to the lore, who believed I could actually build this — thank you. You helped turn imagination into direction.
