The first star that passed away extinguished two thousand years ago.
Four hundred years later, the mysterious Calamity of Heavenly Fall destroyed the civilization of the previous era, returning thriving cultures to ignorance.
Since then, stars gradually vanished, the Firmament grew dark and dim, and a new civilization rose from the starless wilderness, flourishing once more.
Yet, what accompanied this were war, death, destruction, and hatred.
The flames once aimed at the Firmament were used to slaughter the people of enemy nations, and the raining clouds once engineered to alter deserts were turned into floods that engulfed the land.
Humans once again began to kill each other for wealth and power... but no one looked up at the sky.
They lost the Guidance of the stars Above the Sky, forgetting the awe of gazing upon the Milky Way.
They were all prisoners.
One thousand six hundred years after the Calamity of Heavenly Fall, a young child awakened memories of his past life.
He wanted to break the Cage, to throw off the shackles.
He wanted to become a star.
To return to Above the Sky.
"I don't care about how the people of this world live, whether they're well-fed or not, whether they can dress warmly or live comfortably, whether they have dreams or hopes. I don't care about their loves and hates."
"I just want to go Above the Sky."
——Ian.

Inside the Ice Dragon's Nest, beside the dragon's lair.


Beside the massive body of the Dark Gold Colossus Dragon, the intense heat from the earlier battle was causing the millennium-old ice of the dragon nest to slowly melt.


Centered around the dragon body, a semicircular dome appeared, with boiling heat waves cascading like waterfalls, clouding the surroundings.


This is the perfect example of ice and fire mingling—whether it's the chill of the dragon lair or the high radiative heat beside the Dark Gold Colossus Dragon, ordinary people would find it hard to approach. Yet two heavily injured Sublimators still rushed into this mist-shrouded area, doing their utmost to rescue a person from the dragon's belly.
