She lives like a ghost on the ruins of her family, secretly feeding the last dying guardian rune in the cellar with her own blood every month. She thought that as long as she was humble enough, she could keep this last fire. Until that day, Rune's response attracted the empire's modified "Hound", and the peace was completely torn apart. At the end of her escape, what awaits her is not only the torrent of steel from the empire, but also a suffocating truth - the cold-blooded commander who led the army and vowed to bury her with the old era is her biological brother who has been missing for many years. "Remembering is resistance." In the desperate collision of blood and faith, will she choose to die here as the last knight, or will she fight her way to the dawn in this world without magic?
