Here is a showcase of the light, medium and heavy armor in the Flame Awoken outfit style that was first datamined as unfinished armor in the High Isle Chapter in 2022 and received additional models and textures with Update 39 in 2023.
The style's name suggests that it could be related to the Cult of the Waking Flame, the worshippers of the Daedric Prince Mehrunes Dagon, who were the main antagonist faction in the Gates of Oblivion storyline in 2021.
It is unclear why the style was only added after the Gates of Oblivion story was already over, but one possible theory is that it might have been planned for use in the Deadlands DLC but was not finished in time. This is supported by the fact that we got Crafting Motifs 107/108 in Deadlands and Crafting Motifs 110/111 in the Ascending Tide DLC, but there is currently no Crafting Motif 109, which was most likely intended for this style.
As of 2025, it appears that ZOS have completely forgotten about this style. It still lacks weapon models and UI icons. There are also currently no text strings mentioning this style or Crafting Motif 109 in the files. As such, it is unlikely to be released anytime soon.
You can find 4K renders of this style here.

Keep in mind that these models were found in the game files and this style is not officially confirmed. As such, it might change significantly on release or might never be released at all.
