[Blurb]
A sudden meteor shower strikes Earth. The impact of countless meteorites eventually splits the planet into two great regions: the southern landmass and the northern ocean.
Countless meteorite fragments fall across the planet. Scientists discover that the fragments contain immeasurable energy, and figuring out how to develop and harness it becomes one of humanity's greatest pursuits.
Humanity officially enters the Meteorite Era. The northern and southern regions race to reach the pinnacle of technology. The rapid development of science and technology gradually changes people's lives, work, environment, and even emotions...
In New Era Year 444, the southern landmass is officially renamed Southlandia.
Technology becomes a tool for whitewashing power, civilization a vehicle for ambition. Greed and desire take root, and beneath a false veneer of peace, the Tribunal is established. It stands above all judicial systems and possesses absolute authority to pass judgment.
As the person in charge of the Tribunal, Jiang Yi earns the respect of many, along with the hatred of most.
When faced with Jiang Yi and her absolute power to pass judgment, most people choose to bow and obey. Yet deep down, they look down on her, seeing her only as an obedient executioner serving Southlandia's supreme ruler.
In New Era Year 447, Jiang Yi chooses to make a secret deal...
The tower of conspiracy is bound to crumble sooner or later, and the darkness that conceals it will eventually end. Choosing to become a glimmer of light that pierces the darkness is romantic, isn't it?
Do not be a reef battered by the waves. Do not be a lighthouse stranded in the dark. The little boat of hope should not silently perish, shackled by the night.
You should choose to believe in yourself.
What about you? Do you still believe in me?
Reader's guide:
1. This is entirely fictional, so don't overthink it or look for scientific or logical accuracy.
2. Both the male and female leads have flaws. Neither is purely good.
3. The blurb doesn't reveal the whole story, because I'm still working hard on the manuscript, and the writing process is always full of surprises.
