This week’s dispatch carries us into places where bonds become perilous—down into the haunted depths of the Hardwige Mine, where forty-three spirits claw for release, and into the skies with Dareya Calderin, whose forbidden bond with her dragon may save the Riders…or burn their world to ash.
🔮🪶📜 The Chronicler’s Log:
Tragedy’s Mine will drop on Tuesday Morning, August 19 at 7 am EST to The Chronicler’s Log.
The Hardwige Mine has stood abandoned for half a century, a graveyard of gold and broken stone.
Forty-three men died when the earth swallowed them whole, and their spirits never left.
Every attempt to reclaim the mine has ended in terror, for the dead guard their tomb with restless fury.
But when two daring youths venture to its crumbling entrance with a relic of strange magic, they intend not to flee from the ghosts—but to set them free.
What follows is a night of haunting beauty, peril, and revelations that will change how they see the living…and the dead.
