"The higher we go, the less human we become." -Anonymous...

"JUSTICE TOOK EVERYTHING FROM HER - AND STILL DEMANDS MORE." Aina was forged by loss, trained by pain, and sharpened by secrets that were never meant to surface. As an elite agent, she is known for PRECISION • DISCIPLINE • SILENCE As a daughter, she carries unanswered questions about her parent's death - questions that quietly lead back to a place no one dares to fully map. Drawn by a relentless search for justice, Aina returns to Korea alongside her twin sister, Aira - unaware that coming back will awaken truths FAR MORE DANGEROUS than the ones they left behind. The past does not announce its return. Trauma doesn't scream - IT WAITS. As buried truths begin to surface and old places demand to be revisited, the line between strength and numbness starts to blur. WHAT WAS ONCE SEALED UNDERGROUND THREATENS TO UNRAVEL EVERYTHING - beliefs, loyalty, and the meaning of justice itself. Because sometimes, JUSTICE DOESN'T COME WITH CLOSURE. It comes with CONSEQUENCES. Some pasts are buried for a reason - and some places remember those who were never meant to return.

In the beginning, when the realms were one, the Majesty of Lotus found a dragon hatchling abandoned and starving. She raised it as her own, nurturing the pure white dragon whose breath once painted clouds for immortals to dance upon. His name was Guang Xiang. He was adorable. He was gentle. He was beloved by all. But love soon turned into grief. When the man the Majesty of Lotus loved abandoned her for a fairy immortal, grief poisoned her heart. She hunted the fairies across the realms, tearing out their Primordial Spirits and feeding them to the dragon she raised. With every spirit consumed, Guang Xiang changed. His scales hardened. His breath turned to scorching flame. His kindness burned away. When the fairies finally killed the Majesty of Lotus for retribution, the dragon went mad with grief. He smashed his head against mountains until seven heads grew where one had been. From that day on, winter swallowed the realms, calamity followed his shadow, and none dared speak his name aloud. The fairies also killed him soon after. But a dragon like Guang Xiang does not truly die. Legends whisper that his shattered Primordial Spirit still exists. That his core remains intact, hidden within his fated bride-the one he marked long before death. The one who belongs to him. No one knows how to destroy the dragon. Some say only the Lotus Book, left behind by the Majesty of Lotus, holds the answer. After thousands of years, unable to find the Lotus Book, the High Immortal Ascendant of War, Chidi Yun Xi, turns her blade toward the dragon's fated bride. But Guang Xiang has never tolerated trespassers. What is his is his alone. What he has claimed will not be touched. And if they dare reach for her- the dragon will awaken his wrath to end. ____________ "Short memories invite calamity," Guang Xiang's gaze is indifferent. "A frog at the bottom of the well mistakes fear for bravery, after all, because who dares touch my person, whilst I still live?"

Two scholars. One manuscript. No room for surrender. At the storm-lashed cliffs of Blackthorn College, the Marlowe Fellowship promises security, prestige-and escape. For Elias Moreau, it means permanence in a world that never made room for him. For Ophelia Ashcroft, it is inevitability. When both are named finalists, they are assigned a single project: reconstruct the lost work of a professor who disappeared more than a century ago after claiming that intellectual rivals could erode one another's very identities. Collaboration is mandatory. Victory is singular. As late nights in the abbey archives turn into something more intimate-and more adversarial-Elias and Ophelia begin to suspect that Vane's theory was not academic speculation, but warning. Because the closer they draw to each other, the harder it becomes to tell where one mind ends... and the other begins.
