People say the founding master of the Spirit Sword Sect is cool and otherworldly. No one knows that twelve karmic seals are spreading inch by inch, corroding his heart.
The twelve divine artifacts fall, and the Anchor of the Heart of the Primordial Beginning descends into the world.
He never knew that each time his divine consciousness surged, the mark on her wrist deepened.
The seal is restored, and the Three Realms celebrate as one.
At last, he sees her take off her gloves and turn to walk into the depths of the Ruins
There was never any Anchor of the Heart that could hold the world in place. It was always her, guarding this vast land for him.
Theme: Challenging the assumption that "the will of Heaven is justice." The so-called "Anchor of the Heart of the Primordial Beginning" and "Bearer of Calamity" are, in essence, sacrifices used by the will of Heaven to maintain the seal: one individual's endless suffering is traded for peaceful years in the Three Realms. Through the choices made by the protagonists, the story asks whether an order that sacrifices a few for the security of the many should be taken for granted. Even when fate has already been written, do people still have the right to choose to defy it?
