(Apocalyptic Ensemble Cast / Rule-Based Conflict / Mutual Redemption / Night Watchers)
[They say the Night Watchers are doomed to die in the dark.]
[But we insist on lighting an everlasting lamp in the abyss.]
The day the rules collapsed, Chen Qi clenched the broken Key of Protection in his hand.
He would bring back the brothers who had burned to ash, awaken the companions trapped in eternal slumber, and lead all the survivors... to find the road home swallowed by the night.
The key between Lin Shuyue's brows was growing hot. A Zhi struggled between forgetting and remembering, while the flame of civilization in Zhao Wenqian was nearly spent.
This was a wager against a world gone wrong.
The stakes were lives, memories, and existence itself.
And their only trump card was the trust they shared, standing back to back, and the faint spark in their palms that refused to go out.
The long night stretches on. Night Watchers, carry the flame forward.
