The saints were never gods. They were people. And they are still down there.
Vran Kosić has buried three hundred and eleven bodies. He is seventeen years old.
He is a grave-tender's son in a plague village at the edge of a dying empire, and he has spent his whole life with his hands in warm earth that has no reason to be warm. He has learned not to ask about it. In a plague district, the people who ask questions tend to stop being people.
Then the ash comes.
It starts on his palms. Fine, grey, and it does not wash off. It comes with a voice beneath the burial field, speaking a language that was burned out of the world two hundred years ago. It comes with four words.
Don't let them ring.
The Order of Hollow Bells arrives within the week.
They came for his mother the same way. She was dead at thirty-one.
They call it a gift. They call the power drawn from the bones of dead saints a blessing, and the rites that bind it a sacrament, and the iron bells that hang over every grave in the empire a mercy.
They are lying about all of it.
And the thing beneath the world - the thing the saints gave up their bodies, their names, and their children to hold shut - has been waiting twelve hundred years for someone to finally hear it.
It has found him.
SEVEN RANKS. SEVEN BOOKS.
Ashmarked is the first novel of The Black Liturgy Chronicles - a seven-book dark progression fantasy where every rank of power costs something that does not grow back.
Ashmarked · Bellbound · Grave Listener · Hollow Saint · Black Icon · Cathedral Flesh · Throne of Silence
PERFECT FOR READERS WHO WANT:
• A hard, brutal progression system with irreversible physical costs • Balkan folk horror and plague-era gothic dread • Monsters built from bells, grief, and burial rites • A slow-burn conspiracy that rots outward from the church itself • A protagonist who is powerless, patient, and dangerously intelligent
No romance. No chosen one. No mercy.
Every answer reveals something worse.
