Completed 460345 156 11 82708

Lost secrets, ruthless rivals, and a relic that could unmake the world...

Explorer and Windtracer Tela Kioni thought she was chasing old myths. Then a long-lost journal revealed the path to a forgotten relic of the Ancient Order. One buried deep in the nightmare depths of the Great Chasm.
But she’s not the only one on the trail.
A brutal mercenary guild called the Crimson Company will stop at nothing to seize the artifact for their enigmatic backer. A mysterious man obsessed with reviving the Ancient Order’s darkest legacy.
The deeper Tela goes, the more she realizes the relic may be far more dangerous than anyone guessed. Because the true cost of the past?

It’s sometimes paid in blood.

Behind the story

Kummer Wolfe

Hi! I'm CB Ash - also known as Kummer Wolfe. To be fair, I spend my days going in several directions at once from software architect, inventor, and UX designer to science fiction and fantasy writer, Game Master, and worldbuilder on World Anvil! In short, I'm a creative storyteller! As you might guess, the day job is the long-time software architect / ux designer/inventor part. The rest is the 'night job'. Aside from that, I'm working on a few stories and RPG settings, one of which is in my world 'Summerdark', another in Tales of Justice, Hoist the Colors, and some serial fiction in Windtracer! (and quite a few more!) Beyond that, I write serial fiction! That's published here on World Anvil in manuscripts and over on my newsletter Here! https://www.fabledhorizon.press/ When done, I bind them up into a book! Such as:

Death Whispers of the Etherwave, found here!

What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.

— Jane Goodall

I would stand and look out over the roofs of Paris and think, 'Do not worry. You have always written before and you will write now. All you have to do is write one true sentence. Write the truest sentence that you know.'

— Ernest Hemingway
