The young mercenary Xin Yan bears an ancient bloodline. Perhaps it was all a twist of fate, or perhaps one might romantically call it the course of destiny. The mercenary has regained the blessing of his ancestors, but it brings him no hope. On the contrary, the decayed soul of his ancestor drives this power mad, turning a gift once lost and regained into a terrifying curse. Did this bloodline bring misfortune, or is misfortune drawn to it? To soothe this madness, the mercenary sets out to find a way to restore his ancestor's shattered soul.
