Healing Metaphysics
I studied hard despite my humble beginnings and finally passed the imperial exams, only to die unexpectedly. I fell into an endless sea of blood and the torments of hell, where my bones were reforged in a blood basin and my body reshaped in a pool of blood. There, I awakened a body capable of returning to the world of the living.
I have seen the spirits of the dead, unable to let go of their obsessions: a young woman lost to online harassment, a delivery driver worked to death supporting his family, a researcher who concealed his identity, and a soldier who gave his life for his country.
With a single choice to do good, I became an emissary between yin and yang, walking between the two worlds to resolve obsessions and comfort restless souls.
A judge of the dead who has lived for a hundred years quietly guards me, repaying a debt owed across three lifetimes. A simple old man from the mountains waits year after year, his whole life plain and unassuming. After enduring the endless torments of hell, I return to protect all the sweetness of the human world. Even ordinary people can stand tall beneath the heavens. All living beings suffer; to save others is also to save oneself.
