Doyle, an English professor who lived in the 20th century, accepted the invitation of a mysterious business owner and jumped through a time rift to London in 1810 to listen to the Romantic Period poet Coleridge's speech. Doyle, who missed his "return" by accident, was inexplicably hunted by Egyptian wizards, London underground criminal organizations and other people, and fell into the streets of London more than a hundred years ago.
At the same time, the mysterious poet Ashbreath in the history of poetry did not appear when he should have. Byron, who was supposed to be traveling in Greece, was inviting people to drink on the streets. The legendary murderer "Joo" kept committing crimes but was always elusive... A series of extremely strange events were secretly staged in London, which is rich in history and humanity.
Some people want to summon the gods and restore the glory of ancient Egypt; some want to live forever and do whatever it takes; as for Doyle, he just wants to know what happened to this London that is completely different from what he knows...
