Heaven’s Court Has Shut Down, So I’m in Charge of Sunrise

On the thirty-sixth day after Heaven fell silent, the sun stopped over the Eastern Sea, and dawn never again came to the Nine Provinces. Demons and spirits hunted by lamplight, while cities kept their fires burning with the lives of the living. Lu Zhao, a keeper of the beacon fires, found an ownerless divine contract in an abandoned Temple of Dawn. It contained only three lines: Duty: bring dawn to one county, Qingshi; Deadline: every day at the hour of the Rabbit; Miss the deadline by a quarter-hour, and one year of your life will be taken.
