The First Light in the Long Night

Eons ago, the sky collapsed, the stars fell, and the world fell into eternal night. Human beings use "heart flames" to stay warm, see objects, and defend themselves against enemies, but they linger in the darkness. Shen Jin, an orphan from Lantern Village, was born with a cluster of black and starry "swallowing flames", which was regarded as ominous by the whole village. But he also has a secret power - he can pick up the "embers" left by dead things and melt them into his own body. From picking up other people's extinguished flames to survive, to using the Ember Path to reverse the ninth level of the heart flame; from guarding a dying village, to lighting the first lamp to fight against the Night Lord and rekindle the sky. In the long night, can people still light a lamp for themselves?
