The Story
At the grim edge of the wild marches, the crows of Eastwatch have gone silent. For soldier Diane Cruz, this means only one thing: the cursed flare has returned. When silver-black fire crawls out of the frost-blackened forest-carrying the agonizing whispers and memories of dead men-Diane must use her unyielding protective magic to hold the barricade. She is a woman who survives not on flashy heroics, but on the enduring strength of a singular, iron-clad vow: I hold where others must live. As the insidious magical flames test the minds of terrified recruits and begin to shatter Eastwatch's godglass wards, Diane's steady command is the only thing standing between her squad and the creeping ash. But with the barricades violently crumbling and the fire relentlessly searching for a seam, mere endurance may no longer be enough to survive the morning.
