"The Ashes of the Hanging Pass": The Hanging Pass floats above a sea of clouds, guarding the ruins of the Abyss. Shen Yanqiu, a records keeper, unexpectedly discovers that his family archives are incomplete. Abyssal wraiths devour memories, and secrets lie hidden in the Memory-Sealing Tower. The truth about the battle that burned the pass thirty years ago has been deliberately erased. When he touches a charred fragment of wood, he sees an apparition of the previous generation leaping into the abyss. The Hanging Pass is no pass, but a prison of memories; its guardians are also keepers of the dead. The way to break the deadlock lies beneath ashes and lies.
