In the future city "New Chang'an" where neon and chrome are intertwined, technology giants monopolize everything. A young craftsman, Lin Yao, accidentally awakened an ancient AI that contained Chinese "intangible cultural heritage" craft knowledge in order to protect his family's declining traditional lacquerware workshop. She began to fuse lost arts and cutting-edge technology to create unique, customized prosthetics that contained "souls." Her works have attracted the rich and powerful at the top of the city, the rebels at the bottom, and the CEO of the technology giant who wants to seize her "golden finger" by any means necessary. Lin Yao must survive in the cracks of corporate espionage, underground mecha fighting and digital ghosts, revive a dying art, and ultimately decide whether the end point of technology is to save the human soul or completely replace it.
