In the remaining thirty thousand years, people who were swallowed by the rifts in time and space never survived.
Shen Shuang's apprentice is the only exception.
He's back. In a form she couldn't recognize, with melting, shattering, dissipating - and the words "Master, I miss you so much".
He said he was finishing it. Memories, emotions, and existence will all return to nothingness. The only thing left is to use her as an anchor.
Shen Shuang was the one who abandoned him.
This time, she chose to stay at the anchor.
Concept: Love is the violence of memory, the honesty of the body, the delayed presence, and the hand that still reaches into the void after the dam collapses.
