Ashborn Rising: Aftermath

By Jeff Kemmer

Five years after the Meridian Event exposed Meta Humans to the world, Ashborn leader Cael Riven is framed for assassinating a peace delegation, but clearing his name becomes almost impossible when the true enemy offers humanity one hour of perfect peace and millions beg to surrender their freedom to feel it again.

Five years ago, Cael Riven helped break the machine that kept Meta Humans hidden, hunted, and controlled.

Now he leads Ashborn, the first sovereign Meta nation on Earth. To millions, he is liberation made flesh. To terrified governments, he is the man who proved superhuman power can topple the world.

At the Geneva Meta Accords, the fragile peace dies in a locked chamber. A delegate is murdered by a weapon that should not exist in this timeline. The footage shows Cael pulling the trigger.

He was nowhere near Geneva.

As borders slam shut and armies move, a parallel civilization steps from the fractures left by Meridian. The Dominion offers a cure for the chaos Cael helped unleash: the Crown, a psychic order that can end war, hunger, panic, and rogue Meta violence in a single hour.

Then the Crown touches three cities.

For one hour, nobody hurts. Nobody hates. Nobody fears.

And when freedom returns, millions want the leash back.

Cael must expose the frame, hold Ashborn together, and stop Earth from choosing peace as a cage.
