The Seven Stars' Old Dream

The Seven Stars fall, and only then does the old dream awaken. The clouds scatter, and heaven and earth open wide.

Lin Hanyan: Known as "Young Master Hanyan," he enjoys visiting brothels, is a carefree playboy, and loves performing opera. He is the secret proprietor of Qinghuan Boat House, Chang'an's top brothel, and often sings and plays music alongside its top courtesan, Qing Ge. He lives a life of bliss, like an immortal.

Master Beidou: His real name is unknown. He is the formidable master of Seven Stars Tower. When the Dipper's handle points east, spring comes to the world; when it points west, autumn falls. With a turn of his hand, he commands the seasons, and the world is his to steer. He has trained seven assassins: Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang. His followers are numerous, his actions secretive. He manipulates the martial world and throws it into chaos.

Gu Qiong: The current head of the Gu family of Jiangnan and master of Swordcherish Manor. Gentle on the outside but stern within, he cherishes swords so little that even a fortune cannot buy his favor. The world's finest weapons all come from his manor, where all kinds of people mingle, including many talented individuals. The manor's master forges one sword every three years. Even a fortune won't get you one. You must first complete a commission for the master, and those commissions may be easy, perilous, or deeply mysterious, depending entirely on the mood of the eldest Gu son.

Han Su: Master of Floating Cloud Sect, the greatest sect under heaven. His martial arts are peerless, his followers are found throughout the land, and the entire martial world looks to him for leadership. He travels far and wide in search of the martial world's most precious treasure, the Seven Stars' Old Dream Manual.
