The long-awaited Songs of Flame and Ember has officially been released. The five-track album tells the stories behind the five heroes who became known simply as the Flame (Chappy, Fert, Scraat, Smurk, and Templeton) and the extraordinary paths that ultimately converged in the salvation of the City of Fey Ember.

Five sanctuaries shape them: Fert’s orchard of faith and memory; Scraat’s study and dark, hunted dreams; Smurk’s quiet crypt of solitude and study; Chappy’s first true home after fear; and Templeton’s resolve, rooted in a forest grave and relentless training.
