In the "glorious era" when human civilization has traveled across hundreds of billions of stars, history has become a kind of forgotten "dust". The universe is filled with uninterpretable ancient data, silent giant ruins, and disasters of unknown origin - "cognitive aberrations." People revere the future and despise the past.
Su Chen is the most inconspicuous "data organizer" in the Central Archives of the Interstellar Alliance. His job is to label ancient data that is judged as "worthless" for storage. However, no one knows that Su Chen suffers from a strange "disease" - he can hear, see, and even touch the echoes of dusty memories in those data.
When he accidentally touched a memory crystal from a lost civilization, a grand and tragic interstellar war replayed in his mind. He "personally" experienced the fall of the legendary battleship and felt the heroic commander's final determination.
In this era of information explosion and memory gaps, he is the only person who can decipher the history of the universe. He will find a future path for civilization from the ashes of the past, and fight against the "source of distortion" that swallows up all cognition and existence.
History is not a burden, but the only ladder we have to fight against nothingness.
