The Cartographer of Ash
When a city built on old volcanic glass begins to crack open in strange places, a cautious mapmaker is hired to trace the fault lines before the streets collapse into whatever lies beneath. Instead, she finds that the city’s foundations were built around a buried route to an ancient refuge, and several factions are willing to kill to control where it leads. The journey turns into a race through ruined roads, half-remembered kingdoms and people who would rather rewrite history than live with it.
