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.

The Emperor slowly sat on his throne, gazing at the pillar of light that supported the heavens and the earth in the Imperial Capital.


A blurry figure vaguely appeared, and Chancellor Moze's voice sounded: [Why do you value that young Prophet so much?]


[Isn't the Dream Master in Glory City also a Prophet? In our publicity plan, the existence of a Prophet is already included. Isn't adding another Prophet somewhat chaotic?]


Moze's tone carried a hint of confusion. He wasn't questioning the Emperor's choice; he just wanted to know some details from his Majesty's mouth.


"Dream Master Saku... he is indeed a Prophet."


With one hand supporting his chin, the Emperor's tone was somewhat hazy, as if he was contemplating something while explaining lightly: "But he can only foresee through various situations in dreams, mostly guesses, and he can only foresee 'threats'."
