Playing With Titles

I'm weary of referring to Book Three and Book Four, so I'm kicking around ideas.

I've mentioned before I want to keep the same rhythm for Three and Four -- NOUN of NOUN.

The frontrunners right now are a word-match of ash, flesh, flame matched with life and strifeFlame of Strife

Flame of Life

Well, there's two votes for the combo... :)

I dunno. The first way I intended to be simply descriptive, but the second seems like a message of reassurance.

I still like the first way, but that's because my own experience of being reassured is by someone who hasn't got the word yet.

I see what you mean, and admit the grimmer side of my writerly self keeps whispering, "No, end the series with Ash of Life because YOU KNOW WHY." :-)
