In a mythical land of gods and demons, a tale of tragedy and longing emerges from the cold winter. A fox spirit who longs for her kin, and a god who knows nothing but war meet on shaky terms in the mountains of the faraway country of Qi. With only their goals to hold on to, they make their way through an unforgiving world, each ordeal only making them stronger. 

As the pair grows together, so too does their bond, but when the winter ends their paths never cross again.

A young peacock finds himself, after a long journey, at the doorstep of the wealthiest and most powerful emperor who ever lived. Arthur has no wealth, but a lot of heart. Zhongnu has wealth, but no heart. Will they clash as opposing blades, or harmonise as notes either end of an octave?

To save China from an ancient evil so terrible, it almost conquered Heaven, the Heirs must restore the throne and restore the gods. But can they accomplish this task, while simultaneously battling each other for the right to rule that is the Mandate of Heaven? Four have been marked by Heaven, but only one can be emperor.
