Tales were whispered of Amaterasu—the sorceress who tamed thunder and darkness, who rose to become Elder of Shindian. They named her the Devil for her maddened fury. When the sect received word of her arrival at the council, the air grew still with tension. None could fathom her true intentions. The hall gathered its leaders: the reserved Lan Xichen, the icy Lan Wangji, the scheming Nie Huaisang, the fiery-tempered Jiang Cheng, the cunning Wei Wuxian who saw her as an equal, and the smiling Jin Guangyao, who masked his threat. The evening sky burned crimson. A low rumble of thunder trembled through the chamber. The doors swung open, and there she stood in the threshold. Her gaze cut through the crowd, stirring whispers and dread.
