John prepared for a weekend camping trip, hitching his small unbraked trailer to his SUV. He carefully aligned the tow ball, locked the coupler, crossed the safety chains, and tested the trailer lights. Double-checking the load balance, he ensured smooth weight distribution. With everything secure, he confidently hit the road, knowing his attention to detail would keep him—and others—safe. Sometimes, safety begins with the smallest steps at the very start.

Inheriting a dilapidated ancestral manor, the protagonist discovers it to be an inn exclusively for "lost yokai." Each chapter unveils the tale of a unique spirit – a forgotten river deity, a land god whose incense has faded – while the main narrative interweaves the burgeoning conflicts between humanity and the non-human realm.

Ayub Husić has spent years at her brother's side: quiet, strategic, and quietly in love with the one woman he can never have.

He keeps his distance. She barely notices.

Until her father reassigns him-directly under her leadership.

Now, she's watching. He's unraveling. And the lines they never crossed before are starting to blur.

Ivy Oren is a lot of things, some would call her the heir to a throne she doesn't want, some would call her a prodigy, and some would claim she is a liar, a brat, an evil serpent. However, to Ivy, she doesn't know who she truly is or what she truly wants to be. She never imagined that one mission would send her down a rabbit hole, and  into a faith she was told to hate. Born to the snake charmers of the jepei world, Ivy is sent on her first true mission from home, to kill a young girl named Ori Oikawa, who has made an enemy of a brillant woman who lives in the city that never sleeps. During this mission, she lets someone into her heart, a man that she begins to call Immanuel, a man that seems to know more about her than even she knows about herself.

Ivy is a prodigy, a genius fighter, but how can she win against a girl who doesn't seem that bad, that wants her help, and who serves a God that has never lost a battle, that has never lost a fight, whose warriors have never lost when his hand is on their life?

The officers realized that Kurt and Lena were East German spies who had come to sabotage or kidnap Eric, Hans, Heidi, and Helga. Quickly, the officers yelled for them drop their weapons. Aiming their guns at Kurt and Lena, they ordered them to release the couples unharmed.

But, Kurt and Lena were not intimidated. They refused to comply, and pulled their Heckler & Koch P8 and fired round after round at the border german guards. The guards returned fire, dropping Kurt and Lena who both fell bleeding profusely, mortally.

In the year 4025, a cataclysmic war erupted between the world's major powers. The origins of the conflict were lost in the mists of time, though historians speculate that it was the result of a geopolitical dispute or the reckless depletion of resources. The war, brief but devastating, left the planet on the brink of collapse. Three nuclear warheads were enough to sow destruction, but their impact was merely the prelude to something even more terrifying.

By 4032, the war's collateral effects gave rise to a new threat: the Infected. These beings, the result of a dark human experiment, were misleadingly called "infected." With their emergence, the remaining societies and states were gradually wiped out, dragged down by the unstoppable wave of human decay.

Years later, in 4101, a titanic project began in South America: the construction of a wall that would span 70% of the continent. Though the idea seemed archaic, it eventually proved to be a crucial measure for humanity's survival. After 664 years of arduous work, the wall was completed, and the old nations gave way to a new order: the Seven Republics.

Amid this apocalyptic landscape, an unexpected figure emerges: Joaquín Gabriel Fernández Fausto, a young visionary who, in the midst of chaos and despair, assumes the presidency of the Seven Republics under the banner of the UUP party. With determination and a brilliant mind, Joaquín faces the monumental task of rebuilding a society on the brink of collapse. His leadership of the Seven Republics not only redefines the future of these nations but also marks a turning point in the history of humanity. Under his guidance, humanity seeks to atone for its past mistakes and build a new dawn in a devastated world.

SYNOPSIS

In the forgotten town, the crumbling Willowridge Orphanage looms, shrouded in a suffocating silence that conceals dark secrets. Among its lost children is Elias, a boy straddling the line between reality and fantasy, drawn to whispers that beckon him from the shadows. As he endures the harshness of Miss Grayson, the tyrannical caretaker, his curiosity leads him to the forbidden garden—a wild, overgrown realm harboring an ancient malevolence eager to ensnare him.

As Elias delves deeper, he becomes entangled in a web of manipulation spun by a restless spirit, promising freedom and revenge. The once-innocent whispers transform into a nightmarish reality, blurring the lines between innocence and corruption. "Whispers in the Ashes" is a chilling tale of longing and the perilous cost of listening to the wrong voices, where silence reveals more than it conceals.

As Wednesday begins investigating the Everwood Amulet's disappearance, a mysterious stranger arrives in Ravenwood. This enigmatic figure seems to be connected to the amulet and Wednesday's family legacy.
