At a time of upheaval unprecedented in ten thousand years, as the winds of change gather strength, heroes rise on every side and monsters, demons, ghosts, and spirits appear in droves. External threats and internal turmoil make it impossible to tell north from south, and the world is in utter chaos.
Yet a young man who knows little of the world, innocent and carefree, and even a little foolish in the eyes of others, sets out on the path called justice. He falls from the clouds into the mud, then climbs back out, taking one step at a time and always keeping his heart pure. Along the way he stops and starts, crosses mountains and seas, encounters dragons and serpents, and meets both people and ghosts. Growth comes hand in hand with loss. Before he knows it, he is surrounded by companions, and his shoulders bear many heavy burdens.
