When Zhong Yuan wakes up, he finds himself lying inside a display case at the Palace Museum.
Has he become a spirit of an artifact, one that has to absorb fortune to maintain a human form?
Question: How can he gain more fortune?
Answer: A prosperous nation and a thriving culture.
And so the Central Plains Ding, the most precious artifact in the Palace Museum, leads a band of artifact spirits on the arduous path to reviving Guojia culture.
Lost techniques in ceramics, wood carving, and embroidery gradually come back to light.
Any artifact spirits who refuse to cooperate on the road to revival get hauled off to the Palace Museum and made national treasures.
