Ash Markets
After the firestorms, the world did not rebuild-it learned to profit from what remained.
In the ruins of burned cities, ash has become the new currency. Collected, graded, and sold, each grain carries the final moments of the dead-pain, fear, love-waiting to be inhaled by those desperate enough to feel something real again. Sera Vane, an ash broker in a collapsing industrial district, has built her survival on weighing the dead and assigning them value.
But the supply is changing.
Unregistered shipments flood the markets, richer and more intense than anything before. Entire districts are burning without record. And beneath it all, something is happening within the ash itself.
The dead are not fading.
They are merging.
As Sera uncovers the truth behind engineered burnings and the horrifying rise of a collective consciousness known as the Cinder Choir, she is forced into an impossible choice: destroy the markets that sustain what remains of society, or unleash something that could consume the sky itself.
In Ash Markets, memory becomes currency, death becomes industry, and the line between survival and exploitation burns away.
