Even in hell, love dares to bloom.At the Demiurge Academy-where young godlike beings learn to create, shape, and judge entire worlds-one lesson leaves an indelible scar. Within a conjured projection, students are drawn into the lives of Lira and Viktor, two gifted teenagers caught in a twisted magical experiment that hurls them into humanity’s darkest hour: Auschwitz.Lira, the brilliant yet isolated daughter of cold perfectionists, and Viktor, a forgotten orphan scarred by cruelty, find in each other the first spark of care and connection. Their bond is tentative at first-shared glances, quiet support, moments of comfort in a bleak world. But as the world around them collapses, and as they are stripped of their identities, magic, and safety, their relationship deepens into something achingly pure.In the heart of a death camp, where hope seems a crime and love a fantasy, Lira and Viktor hold on to each other-not just to survive, but to remember what it means to feel alive. Through whispered words, fleeting touches, and unspoken promises, their love becomes rebellion-against dehumanization, against despair, and against a future written without their consent.Before the Ashes is a dark and deeply emotional exploration of young love forged under impossible pressure. It is a haunting tale of resistance, tenderness, and sacrifice-told with brutal honesty and unexpected beauty.Not intended for minors. Contains historical content including themes of abuse, systemic violence, and psychological trauma.
