Rift Era

Why! Are we going to sacrifice? The hands you once clasped, the eyes you stared at, and the tomorrow you promised were all reduced to ashes and scattered in the cold wind of history. Every breath carries the lingering pain of loss, and every heartbeat asks: If beauty is destined to be broken, why do we still bleed for it? Why! Good things will eventually pass away? The flowers in the morning, the songs in the night, the unfinished poems, and even the unspoken love are like quicksand between the fingers. The tighter you hold them, the faster they disappear. The brightest smile you have ever witnessed withered in an instant, and the brightest lights were extinguished one by one in the darkness. Why! The world is so cruel! Lies wear a crown, greed wears a robe, and the tears of innocent people gather into rivers, but they cannot wash away the sins in this land. You kneel in the ruins, pressing your palms against the cracks in the earth, feeling the wails of the dead souls of the past coming from deep underground. So you know—— I will turn my body into dry wood! Every inch of bone will be broken into fuel, and every drop of blood will be evaporated into oil. This body and this soul will become the humblest and most blazing fuel. Go set the world on fire! This novel and its characters are purely fictitious.
