Su Heng, chief supervisor of the Imperial Workshops of the Dayin Dynasty, wakes from a dream shattered like jade and finds herself reborn as an art student intern at a modern cultural relics restoration center.
There are no carved beams or painted rafters in her hands now, only the cold glow of LEDs before her eyes. But her carving knife is still sharp, and her dedication to craftsmanship has not cooled.
She cold-forges silver settings back into shape, uses rivets to repair mortise-and-tenon joints, and glues kingfisher feathers with fish-bladder adhesive. Long-forgotten traditional techniques bloom anew at her fingertips.
No System to give her a boost, no tangled feuds with wealthy families: she has only a chest of ancient crafts and a heart devoted to her work. In a modern metropolis, she kindles the flame of intangible cultural heritage.
Watch as the former chief supervisor of the imperial workshops carves beauty from the ordinary and breathes new life into ancient crafts.
