Map and key acquired, the pirate band ATEEZ is on a course to find a legendary treasure in the mystical unknowns of the East, until a lengthy detour from their quest begins to tear them apart from the inside. Some problems can't be solved with a smooth tongue and a quick draw. Sacrifices have to be made.

A month after being scattered to the four winds after that fateful day in Namhae, seven former pirates are struggling to find their places in a newly raging war. Aimless and leaderless, they'll have to pick up their own shattered pieces before going anywhere. Will they make it home? And will there even be a home for them to return to?

They say no one ever writes about the return journey, but leaving their Wonderland isn't the end of the ATEEZ's troubles. When a shadowy threat follows them back around the world, Hongjoong begins to grapple with a truth he's known all along. Maybe some things are best left buried.

When you've been scraping the bottom of the barrel your whole life and a notorious Pirate King suddenly kidnaps you one day, it seems like there's no other option than to make the most of it. At least that's what Wooyoung thinks at first. Unravelling secrets, deadly encounters, and the uncharted seas begin to prove otherwise.
