The universe once belonged to mankind. In the golden age, thousands of stars were lit up and the tracks of starships were woven into the silk of the Milky Way. However, a silent disaster - "Silence" - swept across all human colonies in just one standard day. There are no explosions, no wars, just the quiet termination of life signals. The prosperous interstellar civilization turned into cold tombstones in an instant, and there were only a few survivors scattered in the dark corners of the universe, like candles in the wind.
One hundred years later, in the ruins of the old civilization known as the "Star Grave", Ling Xi, a relic hunter who made a living by scavenging, discovered a black box that should not exist on the bridge of a legendary ghost starship, the "Morning Sun".
The moment he activated the black box, the entire dead universe seemed to be watching. That is not data, not a last word, but an "echo" from an unknown dimension, a coordinate pointing to the truth about the destruction of civilization, and a trap that can drag all survivors into a deeper abyss.
In order to find the answer to "annihilation" and to protect the remaining glimmer of light in his heart, Ling Xi drove his small broken ship "Firefly" and embarked on an unprecedented route. What he will face are twisted interstellar monsters, an unpredictable faction of survivors, and the ultimate terror lurking in the depths of time and space that led to "annihilation."
He is an ember in the sea of stars, but he wants to ignite the fire of the sky.
