(A Judge of the Dead fan work, episodic stories about breaking people out of cages, partly original. Apologies for any out-of-character moments.)
Every lingering obsession in the world can become a cage.
Wen Shi travels far and wide, helping those trapped in the past unravel their mysteries.
Scenes of joy and sorrow, parting and reunion, play out before his eyes, yet the chapter of his own past remains shrouded in mist.
Fragments of his lost memories lie hidden in the gaps between every illusion.
Having seen so many wanderers pass through the mortal world, he must eventually brave the storms of time and meet again the one who has waited so long for him.
It was so beautiful, it made me cry.
