“I brought you back from the abyss to the world of the living, never knowing that you were the abyss itself, gazing at me with gentle eyes.”
As an eerie fog consumes the world, humanity tries to build order amid its fear. Lin Gu is the Purification Division’s finest special operative, code-named “Lone Bird.” Rational and powerful, he is nevertheless emotionally barren, scarred by being abandoned as a child. During a high-risk mission, his teammates betray him and he falls into the abyss. On the brink of death, he is rescued by an indescribable creature with tentacles.
He brings the inhuman being, which takes the form of a black-haired boy with eyes as empty as a sea of stars, home and names him Guiyuan.
