Cradle
In the isolated Sacred Valley, where clans practice sacred arts to advance through ranks of spiritual power, young Wei Shi Lindon is branded Unsouled after failing his clan's test and is denied the chance to cultivate. As the Seven-Year Festival approaches, Lindon seeks any means to prove himself worthy and earn a place among the sacred artists. The central conflict follows Lindon's struggle to overcome his clan's rejection and find his own path in a world where strength determines destiny.
