The continent of Velen was once just a legend in a corner of the ignorant world. It was a place where the roar of the dwarf's furnace, the brilliance of the mage's arcana and the faith of the knight's holy light were intertwined. Until a soul from a foreign land arrived carrying a heretical fire called "Science". Lin Mo, a wanderer from a distant blue planet, never thought that the worn-out "Technical Manual" in his hand would become the trigger that ignited a battle of life and death across dimensions.
When the flames of the furnace and the life of the thorns intertwined into the Holy Light Armor, and when the precise copper wire network weaved the song of order in the magic crystal circuit, a brand new power - "The Furnace Thorns" was born. It is both a creation and a declaration: magic is not an oracle, but a law waiting to be analyzed; technology is not a blasphemy, but a quantifiable miracle. This weak spark illuminated Velen's ignorant corner, but it also awakened the predator sleeping outside of time.
The shadow of the entropy demon has fallen. It is not an army, but a cancer of the law; its weapon is not a sword, but a distortion of the rules of the universe. It swallows order, spreads chaos, turns stars into dust, and crushes civilization into nothingness. The continent of Velen, together with the furnace thorn fire burning on it, became an insignificant but tenaciously flickering spark of embers in this catastrophe.
Escape has become the only way to survive. The wreckage of the Origin Ark points to the deep space, and a blue star core becomes the coordinate in despair.
