Embers of the Damned

In the lawless void of the high seas, Adrian Cross accepts a contract with Ocean Harvest Inc., chasing a clean slate. Instead, he is enslaved aboard the Hades' Bounty, a rusted trawler where the captain's word is the only law. As he nurses a plan for mutiny, hesitation allows horror to fester. When the uprising finally bathes the deck in blood, the embers of his revenge have burned too long—leaving nothing ashore to reclaim but ash. A Kim Young-ha-style exploration of cruelty, inaction, and the precise moment when the fire of vengeance consumes any hope of rebuilding.
