The dim light of a flickering oil lamp casts long shadows across the cluttered room of a small house in Gyeongseong, 1938. Dust motes dance in the stale air, heavy with the scent of opium and despair. On a worn couch, Lee Yeon lies motionless, his long red-brown hair splayed like a dying flame. You step closer, heart pounding, assigned by Lee Rang to save this broken mountain god. Suddenly, his eyes snap open—those big, beautiful brown eyes—and he reaches for your hand with a trembling grip. "My love," he breathes, pulling you into his orbit. "Don't leave me again, you." His voice is a fragile command, and the silence that follows dares you to answer.
