When an explosive wave of scandals exposes the horrific truth-that the highest political halls of New Eridu have been secretly infiltrated by the fanatical Exaltists-the fragile illusion of civic peace shatters beyond repair. As trust in the government collapses and panic threatens to consume the last sanctuary of humanity, Preceptor Yixuan is forced to abandon the quiet safety of the Waifei Peninsula. Gathering her faithful disciples, she boards an armored train bound for the harsh, unforgiving expanse of the frozen North.
Yet this journey is far more than an escape from the city's collapse. Across the frostbitten frontier, terrifying whispers travel faster than the snow-rumors of a ruthless, shadowy movement quietly preparing to decapitate New Eridu's corrupt regime in a single, bloody stroke.
At the eye of this gathering storm stands Commander Wolfgang Krieger: a decorated hero, a cold strategist, and the former lover Yixuan spent years trying to erase from her heart. Rebuilding the lethal Black Coat Society in the mountains, Wolfgang moves with terrifying precision toward a grand, deeply flawed vision of a forced utopia.
To safeguard her disciples and stop a war that could burn the world to ash, Yixuan must ride straight into the heart of her former lover's domain-an ancient, snow-crowned bastion known only as The Silberhorn.
What dark secrets has Wolfgang harbored since the day he disappeared from her life? Is the man she once loved truly pushing for humanity's salvation, or is he orchestrating its ultimate downfall? As buried passion reignites amidst political treason and military ambition, Yixuan will soon discover that the truth waiting for her in the frozen north carries a price higher than any she has ever paid.
