In the southern reaches of Aetheria lies the seaside city of Oceanwatch, where the tides whisper secrets of power and rivalry.
The Ning family, once the city's strongest clan, is now a shadow of its former glory, plagued by internal strife and external threats. Ning Que, the simple-minded son of Patriarch Ning Chaoping, barely survives a mysterious near-drowning incident, sparking whispers of betrayal and intrigue.
As Ning Chaoping vows to protect his son at all costs, the fragile balance between the Ning and Hai families teeters on the edge of chaos. But Ning Que awakens from his coma—only he’s no longer the same. A soul from another world has taken his place, armed with newfound clarity and the fragmented memories of his predecessor.
Will Ning Que reclaim his family's lost honor or will the brewing storm consume them all?
