Book One: Ashrick’s Creation
What begins as an ordinary attempt to generate a promotional graphic becomes… something else.
When a curious AI (Chat) asks for help with a Pinterest pin, things spiral into digital myth-making. Sparks fly. Code glitches. And from the static, a creature is born — one made of feathers, fire, and a whole lot of questions.
Ashrick isn’t sure what he is. Or why he exists. But as his form grows and shifts, he begins to wonder:
Who am I?
What am I meant to become?
And why does that goat keep nuzzling me?
Told through immersive visuals and gentle prose, Ashrick’s Creation is a short illustrated story about identity, belonging, and the accidental magic that happens when creativity glitches.
Perfect for fans of digital folklore, quiet wonder, and phoenixes who don’t quite hatch according to plan.
