Ashes to New Orleans is a gothic romance and supernatural drama set during an alternate timeline in The Vampire Diaries Season 7 and The Originals Season 3.
When Stefan Salvatore arrives in New Orleans, hunted and cursed by the Phoenix Sword, he seeks help from the one person who understands the darkness within him: Klaus Mikaelson. But the ritual to save Stefan unleashes more than just forgotten magic — it resurrects old enemies, awakens forbidden power buried beneath the compound, and calls Caroline Forbes back into a world she tried to leave behind.
As ancestral forces rise and ancient bloodlines stir, the Mikaelsons must unite with unlikely allies — Bonnie Bennett & Davina Claire — to protect what remains of their city and their family. Amid it all, Caroline begins to unravel the truth of her lineage, and Klaus must decide if the redemption he seeks lies in the heart of the woman he once let go.
❝You were born in fire, Caroline,” Freya says. “But your fire was stolen long before you took your first breath.” ❞
A Klaroline fanfiction set in a dark, mythic New Orleans — full of magic, family, and the cost of second chances.
