In a forest where time spirals and memory bites like frost, a lone rider awakens with no path, no name upon the wind—only a horse beneath him and the burden of forgotten sins.
Rowen rides into a world unmoored from reason, where the trees whisper guilt, and every encounter threatens to unravel what little sanity remains. Alongside him travel Thomel, a man haunted by betrayal and shadows of a life not quite his own, and Eris, fierce and fractured, bearing scars of a love undone by war and silence.
As the trio descends deeper into the sentient wilderness, they face illusions, revenants, and cryptic warnings from a cloaked figure known only as Caelus—the Harrower, the Keeper of Memory. Yet behind Caelus lies something far older and more dangerous: Ashroth, a forgotten force born from guilt too heavy to bear.
Every trail leads back to the self.
Told in lyrical prose with haunting clarity, No Route for the Damned is a journey of reckoning—through memory, through love lost and found, and through the cycles of regret that bind all living souls. When the past refuses to stay buried, how far will you walk to forgive yourself?
