Embers of the Dimension

In the seventh year of the Calamity, extraterrestrial aberrations invade the real world, spawning bloodthirsty low-level mutants. Civilization from the old era collapses, city-states carve up the land, and humanity struggles to survive amid the ruins. Shen Yu is the only cross-dimensional medium in existence. His mental fluctuations can connect to dangerous dimensional rifts. A signal leaked during a moment of emotional weakness draws the attention of the powerful Central City, which launches a citywide manhunt. Central City plans to use him alive as bait, sparing no expense to wipe out the aberrations and end the calamity. Lin Wan is Shen Yu’s lover, and his greatest vulnerability. To evade the pursuit, the two flee through ruins and underground tunnels. Shen Yu refuses to follow the path of destruction and stubbornly searches for a way for humanity and the aberrations to coexist. With Central City’s spies and wandering mutants everywhere on one side, and suspicion and betrayal among people on the other, he bears the fate of two worlds and must make a difficult choice between survival and reconciliation when pushed to the brink.
