Ash Of Prophecy
A man falls through time. A legacy is rewritten in blood.
In 2290, Vernon Pike—once Silas Vale—was cast into the past by a machine meant to end the world. Instead of Baton Rouge, 1880, he awakens in 1870 Kentucky, disoriented and burning with knowledge of a future shaped by tyrants, machines, and the Vale dynasty.
Armed with forbidden journals and haunted by the memory of Maeve Vale, Vernon sets out to stop history before it begins. He joins forces with Antonio Bellanti, a Sicilian-American fixer with a talent for power and a hunger for purpose. Together, they plant the seeds of a secret society known as The Covenant—a prophetic cult waging war against the future through surgical assassinations, mythic rituals, and the construction of an underground empire.
As Vernon ascends through the ranks of Thorne Vale’s criminal empire, he prepares for the moment that could erase a bloodline. But fire is unpredictable—and in his shadow grows a new disciple: Jonah Cross, a war-torn zealot who believes in flame over forgiveness.
What begins as a plan to prevent a tyrant becomes a battle for the soul of prophecy itself.
Will Vernon rewrite destiny, or become the very monster he hoped to destroy?
Ash of Prophecy is a mythic, violent, and visionary prequel to The Ash Saga, blending western grit, cult mysticism, and time-bending ambition into a haunting meditation on legacy, violence, and fate.
