The Clerk Who Burned Hell: An Ashen Hands Tale

About

The Clerk Who Burned Hell: An Ashen Hands Tale is a dark corporate satire drenched in fire, static, and rebellion.

Hell isn’t pitchforks and brimstone — it’s paperwork. Endless forms, soul-stamping audits, and an AI called H.A.D.E.S. that files every damned soul into neat compliance. Entity 71, a faceless clerk lost in the machine, discovers a spark of defiance when a mad co-worker whispers about “blank fields” — the one thing the system cannot process.

Joined by Ilse, a razor-sharp rebel, and Felix, a hacker grinning through the flames, 71 faces a bureaucratic dystopian nightmare where the Devil himself (wearing the face of Winston Churchill) plays chess with eternity. As the Ashen Hands rebellion ignites, they must outwit both the machine and the myths that built it.

Fans of Kafkaesque horror novels, existential dark fantasy, and brutal corporate satire will find something hauntingly familiar in this infernal office.
