The Lanterns Under Ash
In a city built above an old volcanic grave, the dead are kept quiet by lanterns fed with salt, ash, and memory. When the lanterns begin to fail, a practical archivist who has spent her life cataloguing other people's losses is forced to descend into the buried streets and find out what the city has been feeding on.
