Where the Light Forgot to Touch

Remnants of Filth Fanfiction

They called her a hero, once.

Gu Mang, a lowborn woman in a world that never wanted her, fought through warfare to become a renowned general who terrified enemies and allies envied. By her side stood Mo Xi, her trusted comrade, with whom she shared a secret love and the only person who fully understood her.

Yet, glory is fleeting.

In a single night, everything fell. Her command dissolved. Her army taken. Her sworn brother executed. And Gu Mang -- now marked as both a deserter and a defector -- disappeared from the empire, despite having sacrificed herself for it.

However, a part of the story remains unknown.

The events from that night's battle remain concealed and forgotten. The official record speaks of betrayal. But whispers tell of something else... of secrets exchanged in the dark, of a truth too dangerous to name. Of a love connection that threatened mutual ruin.

And now, as old wounds resurface and forgotten names are spoken once more, one question lingers:

What truly happened where the light forgot to touch?
