Ashes of Mars

Mars was never a frontier.It was home.Beneath the blood-red sky of Helios Station, humanity survives inside fragile domes where oxygen is rationed, water is owned, and even sunlight is controlled by distant Earth Command. Beyond the corporate core, unrest grows in the outer settlements-where failing habitats and forgotten citizens learn to survive without permission.Elias Kade was born on Mars, shaped by its thin air and brutal gravity into something Earth could never produce. Now he wears the Crimson suit, a living reactor fueled by the planet itself-its power pulsing through him like a second heart. To Earth, he's an asset. To Mars, he's something more.When rebellion ignites and control begins to fracture, Elias must choose what he truly serves: the world that claims authority... or the one that claimed him first.Mars doesn't reward loyalty.It rewards survival.
