Black mist poured from the rift and swallowed the world.
Within the mist lurked the uncanny, Outer Gods, the Great Old Ones, potions, and people who had lost their minds.
A century later, on Blue Star, in Mist City.
Su Te, an ordinary student who had just graduated, killed five people who had lost their minds in self-defense in his dormitory.
He thought a trial was waiting for him.
That is, until Gu Zhou sat down across from him and said, “Join the Bureau of Enforcement, or face trial.”
Su Te was forced to join a secret organization, the Astral Track Bureau of Enforcement, which dealt with things that should not exist in this world.
He thought it was just a job.
Until he discovered that his father was a powerful Sequence practitioner who lived in seclusion, his mother came from an ancient family, and the ring on his hand could open any “known door.”
Until a voice spoke to him in a dream:
“I’m watching you.”
Until he realized that everyone’s fate pointed to the same name: the Wandering God.
When the apocalypse descends upon Blue Star once more and the mist closes in, the seal on the Outer Gods will break.
The Observer will be chosen from among them, though perhaps no one will be chosen. Perhaps there will be nothing at all.
The Observer is a god.
The Observer is a profession held by a group of people.
The Observer is also a person.
