In a land where wind howls louder than words and the wilderness knows no mercy, a young drifter named Tang Ji roams the untamed frontiers alone. Armed with nothing but a bow and his instincts, he searches-not for prey, but for a place to belong.
Raised among shadows and silence, Tang Ji grew into a hunter with no tribe, a tracker with no banner. Legends whisper of hidden enclaves-ancient hunter clans buried deep in the mountains-where kinship is earned through grit and scars. Tang Ji believes they exist. He must.
Through blizzards, beast-ridden forests, and the skeletal remains of forgotten towns, his journey becomes more than survival-it is a reckoning. Each step tests his resolve, each stranger tests his trust. And when he stumbles upon a mysterious girl cloaked in raven feathers-feral, elusive, and bound to the wild-his purpose begins to shift.
What happens when the hunter meets someone wilder than the beasts he stalks? And will either of them find sanctuary in a world that has none to offer?
