Chapter 1: The Falling Moon Withdraws Its Light
In recent days, Nancheng was struck by a torrential downpour unseen in a hundred years.
Even the elderly who had lived in the city their entire lives remarked that in all their many years, they had never witnessed such terrifying rain.
For three consecutive days, the normally azure sky was buried beneath thick, suffocating black clouds. Within the churning layers of the storm, flashes of lightning flickered, and peals of thunder roared as if intending to swallow the entire city whole.
Three days later, a streak of deathly white light flashed across the horizon, looking like a celestial army tearing through the night sky with overwhelming force. Most bizarre of all, the moment that white light vanished, the rain stopped as abruptly as if by magic.
A woman lay flat on her back upon a stretch of lawn, her clothing unlike anything found in the ordinary world. Her long, thick eyelashes trembled slightly; as her eyes snapped open, it seemed as if a scorching fire spread from the heavens, threatening to burn all things in the world to ash.
