In the besieged city of Pogoren, Anja scrapes by in the ruin of her family's home, trying to outlast a war that has hollowed out everything she once knew. When a wounded stranger appears at her door, Anja is forced to confront a question larger than survival: what is worth saving when a city burns? Fading Embers is a story about the human legacy that wars erase — and the choices that determine whether any of it endures.
