Summary
Yunkui Summit stands like a lantern above Waifei Peninsula, its disciples the last quiet line between the city and the Hollows beyond. Among them is Ye Shunguang, a swordswoman whose blade can cut mist and Ether alike. Her power comes from the Qingming Sword, a cursed relic that grants impossible strength while slowly devouring the senses and memories of its wielder. Each mission leaves her a little more frayed at the edges, and she has learned to treat the gaps in her recollection like wounds she must not show. As Wise learns to move his sword in step with hers, he begins to see what the curse is taking from her, and refuses to accept that sacrifice as inevitable.
When abnormal Ether Storms begin to tear through Waifei, their true source steps out of the past. To the people of Throne Quarter he is a traitor. To Ye Shunguang he is a ghost. To Wise he is a mirror of everything that might happen if nothing changes. Ye Shunguang must decide what she is willing to lose for duty, and what she is finally ready to claim for herself. In the heart of a Hollow Storm, with memories slipping like mist through her fingers, three blades will cross and the fate of the Qingming Sword and Waifei Peninsula will be rewritten.
