Absolutely. Let’s forge a brand-new myth in Middle-earth’s shadow—anime style.
A tale that understands balance, morality, and legacy.
This is not Tolkien’s sequel. It’s your reawakening of the myth.
PROJECT BLUEPRINT: “ASHEN DAWN”
An anime-inspired fantasy saga set after the fall of Mordor. A new evil rises. The last flame chooses to stand—not for conquest, but for survival.
TONE & STYLE
• High fantasy × mature anime energy (Attack on Titan, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Vinland Saga)
• Stunning, hand-drawn environments—Mountains of ash, elven ruins overgrown with thorns, black spires shining in moonlight
• Fluid battle choreography, weapon arts, dark magic, and spiritual combat
• Complex characters with moral grayness, conflicting codes, and deep loyalties
SETTING: POST-WAR MIDDLE-EARTH (ALTERNATE UNIVERSE)
• The One Ring has been destroyed
• Sauron’s power fractured—but he lives
• Mordor is not dead—it’s a broken land of survivors, orcs, dark elves, and wandering kings
• The Elves are retreating, Men are divided, and Dwarves hide deeper than ever
• From the North, a shadow awakens—not a lord, but a hunger
• The Maw of Vael’Drith—a cosmic force of erasure, not evil, not good
• It wants to consume all history, all memory, all magic. A world with no past.
MAIN CHARACTERS (ANIME ENSEMBLE)
1. Kaelion (Main Protagonist)
• Half-elf, half-human orphan raised in the wreckage of Gondor
• Wields twin swords—one elven, one black steel
• Struggles with identity: caught between legacy and survival
• Discovers he is a “Lorebound”—able to hear the voices of old magic
2. Riya of the Black Tower (Female Lead, Warrior-Priestess)
• Southlands-born; raised among orc tribes and humans
• Powerful spellblade with tattoos that glow when casting sacred fire
• Seeks to destroy Vael’Drith after it wiped out her village
• Believes Sauron’s survival is a necessary evil
3. Sauron (The Fallen Flame)
• Reborn in a weaker, mortal form—ashen skin, glowing embers in his eyes
• Lives alone in Barad-dûr’s broken tower, now overrun with wild magic
• Doesn’t seek conquest anymore—but defends Mordor with terrifying power
• When Vael’Drith threatens his land, he fights not as a Dark Lord—but a lone general
“You call me evil. But evil does not defend its dead.”
4. Torrek (Orc Diplomat + Veteran)
• Former war general under Sauron, now seeks peace among clans
• Uses brute strength + poetry of ancient orc tongue
• Provides humor and unexpected depth—a beast who chose peace
5. Vael’Drith (The Cosmic Enemy)
• Never takes the same form—sometimes smoke, sometimes light, sometimes a mirror
• Speaks in riddles, breaks time, feeds on regret
• Its army: The Hollowed—soulless creatures wearing the armor of fallen warriors
• “You cling to pain. I offer release.”

• Orcs planting crops. Blacksmiths rebuilding ruins.
• At the center: Sauron. No crown. No armies. Just watching the horizon
• He warns:
“If you let this thing consume the world, I will burn what’s left—so there’s something to remember.”
• Reluctantly, they form a pact.
Episode 6–8: The Fallen Histories

ENDING & HOOK FOR SEASON 2
• The world sees the new alliance… and fears Sauron more than ever
• Kaelion questions if their enemy is truly worse than their ally
• The Hollowed begin to speak… in his own voice
THEME & MESSAGE
• Power isn’t evil. Memory is power.
