Put it on, and you can enter the world of dragons.
Take it off, and can you still find your way back to yourself?
On the brink of despair, Lin Zhu puts on an ancestral dark-gold mask, gambling everything on a sliver of hope. His consciousness plunges into the Ashen Abyss, an apocalyptic wasteland where the bones of dragons burn. Power surges through him, while inhuman scales quietly spread across his fingertips.
A haughty dragon girl sees him as an insect and humiliates him at will, unaware that the power she craves is parasitically lodged inside her “pet,” whispering. Each time he uses the mask, a little more of his humanity falls away.
When claws pierce flesh and slit pupils replace his eyes,
he must choose:
become a walking corpse in the human world,
or, in the world of dragons... become a demon beyond salvation?
