Gatekeeper of the Living World

In a world as black as night, people are always fearful and yearn for the light.

There are people like this all around you. They seem no different from you, but when no one is watching, they guard their corner of the world against demons and monsters.

A family heirloom: an imperial decree inscribed on an iron tablet.

It carries stories passed down through generations of the Chen family’s ancestors.

It seems like a curse.

A fate of bondage that cannot be escaped.

One day,

Chen Jianghe opened the iron tablet.

And an entirely different story began.
