Story Background

In the 15th year of the Chongzhen era in the Ming Dynasty of China (1642), a scholar named Fang Zhiyou lost his mind and memory after his childhood sweetheart, Su Lianyan, a renowned Yangzhou courtesan, drowned herself in a river. He began perceiving humans as beasts and wasted his days in a drunken stupor.

Three years later, Fang Zhiyou in a drunken haze, strayed into the monstrous world he had penned—The Lion Camel Kingdom. There, he witnessed the demon soldiers invading the city, committing acts of looting, slaughtering, raping, and torching everything. Though he had sought death, he found a renewed will to live after meeting a young girl who bears a striking resemblance to Su Lianyan, named “Little Swan”. Moved by her presence, he resolved to keep her alive until the last day of the demon soldiers finally lay down their weapons.

During their escape, fragments of his memory would gradually resurface, intertwining sanity and madness until the truth was revealed. At that moment, he faced his inescapable fate…
