When the Great Sage Equal to Heaven became a Buddha, he left his “demonic nature” behind in a single hair. Five hundred years later, the hair took human form as the “Destined One” and awoke in the crumbling “Ruin.” The only being defined by no mythology, he must travel between Investiture of the Gods, Journey to the West, and the Classic of Mountains and Seas, repairing cause and effect that has been rewritten. When he chooses to become a bridge connecting myriad worlds, he is fated to fade into the unseen background. But myths never die, and the single hair endures forever.
