Amid the coal smoke of the Plagon Continent, archivist Huaixu becomes prey to the supernatural world after discovering a blank dossier. Potions eat away at his sanity, while Old Gods whisper in his ear. The path to advancement through the “Recorder” sequence is itself a gamble: piecing together the truth on the brink of madness. The Archive Bureau’s rules, the Loom of Fate’s pursuit, and the prying eyes of the Outer Gods of the Astral Realm all wind through the yellowed pages. When a prophecy of the world’s end appears in the blank archive, can he wield pen and ink as a blade and anchor humanity’s fate in the forgotten pages of history?
