**On the road fleeing famine, I saved a boy who was on the brink of death.**
Later, he became my shadow, my blade, and the only stone I could lean on.
*They called me a miracle doctor because my remedies always worked.*
Only the two of us knew the truth:
The pulse of the beggar I had “healed” beat to the rhythm of a star map;
The ley lines beneath the city I had “saved” flowed with rusting, poisonous blood.
*This mortal world is one enormous, ailing body.*
*Corrupt officials are boils on the surface, while treacherous ministers are cancer in its bones.*
Clutching my silver needles, I fought for survival in a world at war. I used poison to turn the tables at court, and thievery to empty corrupt ministers’ vaults.
They said I was asking for death.
I said I was
**scraping the poison from the bones of a world that had been sick for three thousand years.**
From a barefoot village doctor to a pillar of the nation who held the fate of the world in her hands.
The path I walked was never about saving lives.
It was
**a campaign to cleanse the realm, waged in the name of medicine.**
