On a centrifugal planet, the light always lingers at the boundary. Xingque, a name born out of exile, walks between the dust and the wilderness, his heart is like a star core, being both attracted and repelled. Here, the sun is not a constant warmth, but a fission judgment; here, day and night compete, and faith and memory collapse like quicksand. Xingque is not running for survival, he is eager to break the centrifugal rhythm of the planet - to find the original contract between humans and the stars in every gravity reversal and every time dislocation. His opponent is his companions who are gradually alienated, the landscape that swallows all things, and his own past and fear. As dawn approaches, Xingque will use a silent journey to question the meaning of escape and belonging. The novel uses poetic touches to describe a period of extreme trials about human instinct and loneliness in the universe, giving birth to new life in the cracks and reshaping hope in the dawn.
