Obsidian Prayers

Ashforge is a blacksmith living in the glacier-locked colony his family has called home for generations.

And then he finds Silverlight on the riverbank, which shouldn't have been possible.

Ash doesn't know what the Elders will do if they find Silver. And Silver doesn't make hiding himself easy.

Silver has to find a way out.
Ash wants him to stay.

Obsidian Prayers is an ice-age post-apocalypse story about a himbo melodramatic blacksmith who finds a crow-brain nomad fisherman. It goes about how one would expect.
