『Ember's Remnant』
She was once the gentlest singer beneath the Spirit Mother Tree; now she is the coldest empress atop the ruins. The War of the Gods burned away the gods, the Mother Tree, and everything she had ever believed in. The survivors call her “Emberglass”—stained glass left in the ashes. Beautiful, sharp, fragile, yet it has never shattered. She sits upon her broken throne, gazing with a pair of crimson eyes at a world strewn with corpses. No one dares to look her in the eye. No one knows she is waiting for someone—the mischievous elf who used to drag her out of class to pick wild fruit as a child, the little scoundrel she has waited a thousand years for.
“I once sang for a fallen leaf. Now I lay down iron law for the entire world. But when you call me Xiao Li, that iron law doesn't count.”
