The Rift of Eternal Night tore open the starry sky, bringing two universes to the brink of collapse.
Lu Xun, a general with an ice blade and the power to foresee the future, lived under a destiny measured by a countdown. Ye Lin, a half-blood monster bearing a spatial rift, grew fierce and wild amid betrayal.
They were sworn enemies, predicting each other’s tactics in asteroid belts and tearing apart each other’s formations among the stars. Yet, in the depths of despair, they glimpsed the same loneliness in one another.
Deep within the rift, seventy-two hours became an eternity as time fell into chaos. On the brink of running out of oxygen, their first kiss tasted of blood and carried a vow: “Don’t die. I haven’t beaten you yet.”
When the entire universe ordered them to use each other, they cut off every line of communication.
“Let’s run away together, General.”
“Okay.”
They defected. Joined forces. Then discovered that they were the final keys, planted with their lives by two civilizations.
The price was eternity: becoming the laws of time and space, losing their freedom, yet resonating with each other forever.
“Are you afraid?”
“I’m afraid you’ll regret choosing me.”
“Of all the futures I’ve foreseen, the only certainty is this: without you, no world is worth existing in.”
Beneath the witness of starlight, time and space intertwined into eternal twin stars.
They chose each other in the abyss and happened to save the world along the way.
A story about two monsters falling in love. The universe is just the backdrop.
Author’s Note:
This is a story about two lonely people finding each other and deciding, “If we’re going to fall into the abyss, we might as well jump together.”
I hope that against the vast scale of the stars and the sea, you’ll see love in its most essential form: not a lifeline of salvation, but the infinite possibilities created when two powerful souls understand and deeply love each other.
