The Thirteenth Flame

Felina has died thirteen times. She was burned at the stake by the very people she once tried to save. Each time she returned—without memory, without a name, and always too late to prevent the next betrayal. But on her fourteenth return, something changes. Memories begin to seep through the cracks: fragments of spells, whispers of fire, and faces that swore allegiance... before the pyre was lit. As Felina tries to piece together who she was—and what she was protecting—she discovers a terrifying truth: every death wasn't just a curse; it was a trade. Every soul she saw burned became hers. Now, she owns them all. Armed with a record of bound souls, Felina walks the fine line between revenge and redemption. The world that once feared her now begs to be protected. But her power has changed her—and the final flame burns within her grasp. Will she rise to save the world once more? Or will she let it burn... and ascend to her rightful throne amidst the ashes? "The Thirteenth Flame" is a dark, haunting fantasy about memory, betrayal, and resurrection—the story of a woman forgotten too many times and a world that may not deserve a second chance.
