A Twist of Fate

Life is like a candle: when the candle goes out, life ends.

The moment each person is born, a new candle appears in the [Palace of Candlelight].

When the candle burns down, their life reaches its end.

But life is unpredictable, and accidents happen.

Sometimes the flame is no bigger than a bean, and life hangs by a thread.

Sometimes the candle has not burned down, yet its flame goes out, and life is cut short.

Sometimes ashes cling to the candle, bringing one misfortune after another.

After an accident, he became a ghostly [Candle Keeper]. He can trim your candle, kindle its flame, or remove its wax, giving you a chance to survive and defy fate.

Humans and ghosts alike have limited lifespans. Only the gods can live forever.

So if you want eternal life, abandon the ghosts and become a god.

To become a god, you must build upon the faith of all living beings and make the false become real.

When you go out into the world, you choose your own identity. But those who called themselves Heavenly Emperor, Goddess, Star Lord, or Uncrowned King all failed to ascend to godhood. They became nightmare insects and vanished into the river of history.

As a modern man, Xia Yunzhou has an identity he can be proud of, one that everyone can easily accept: JBR

With this as my foundation, I shall ascend to godhood.
