Bai Leng, a senior high school student in Linhai City, has a ten-year history of professional mental illness. He's a double agent among hunters, and his goal is to join the personal guard of the Queen of Cainhurst.
As dreams intertwine with reality, the Old Gods begin whispering in his ears, and the curtain rises on the truth of madness.
The surging laments in the city tell people of a hidden past. The Church and the hunters cannot see their way forward through the schemes. Mad scholars begin their blasphemous rites, while the traitors among the twins yearn for the path of evolution beneath their hymns. In a blood-red castle within a dream, the wedding of the Old Gods is witnessed.
When everything converges at the end, and divinity merges with humanity, he will ultimately become the master of that dream.
