Ashes of Western Wind

Rizky Darmawan, 2025

In the western provinces of a crumbling kingdom, the harvests fail and famine grips the land. The court at Eileen Fort, gilded and distant, demands its tithe regardless. Among the starving, a young lord named Brennar faces an impossible choice: obey a crown that drains his people, or defy it and risk being branded a traitor. Grief drives him as much as justice; every field reminds him of the woman he could not save, and every order from the capital reminds him that compassion has no place in power. When Brennar's defiance flares into rebellion, the realm answers with iron. The king's armies march west beneath the banners of Commander Coren, a soldier of rising fame whose sense of duty has long been his armour. Yet the closer Coren comes to the rebellion, the more he questions what it means to serve a kingdom rotting from its own grandeur. Between them lies a land of ruined villages and loyal hearts, a people forced to choose between obedience and survival. From the quiet grief of farmsteads to the cold councils of the capital, their choices will shape the fate of a realm that no longer remembers what it once stood for. Told with restrained lyricism and historical realism, Ashes of Western Wind is a meditation on loyalty, loss, and the weight of conscience. It explores the fragile line between honour and cruelty, and the silence that follows when both are spent. Neither hero nor villain remains untouched by what they defend. And when the winds of the west rise again, they carry not triumph, but the echo of all that has burned away.
