Eternal Spark Echoes #212

When the twin moons of Epsilon Ridge burn red, the law rides in black.

Marshal Kane Vale of the Black Comet, a sort of intergalactic marshals, was once a name whispered with respect across the outer systems. An enforcer of justice where no law survived. But when a forged bounty leads him to destroy an innocent town, the hunter becomes the hunted.

Now, wounded and haunted by the ghost of his deputy, Kane waits in the ashes of Latchkey for his own kind to bring judgment. In the void, there’s no mercy—only the creed he once swore to uphold:

“When the stars forget, we remember.”

A space-western tragedy of guilt, fire, and redemption.
Ashfall on Epsilon Ridge is the final ride of a lawman who learns that even justice casts a shadow.



Lyrics

Rode in on a trail of ion light,
Sky burned copper, the moons hung white.
Badge on my wrist and ghosts in tow,
The Black Comet rides where the law won’t go.

They said there’s a killer out by the mine,
A bounty fat, a job divine.
But the truth came bleeding through the dust,
And every bounty’s paid in rust.

Ash to ash, star to star,
You forget who you are when you’ve ridden too far.
The badge don’t shine, it burns the hand,
I’m just the dust and the starbrand.

Lira laughed, said “the stars still see.”
But the night came down too fast for me.
If justice lives, it’s somewhere blind—
Out past the edge of peace of mind.

Ash to ash, star to star,
Can’t pray to the law when it’s this dark.
The badge don’t shine, it scars the man,
I’m just the dust and the starbrand.
