There he runs into Kang, a demigod cast out from heaven and living as a human, and senses a strong attraction.

Unable to disobey the orders of the emperor, Kang decides instead to deceive San. What does San know, and what has Kang forgotten? Bound by a tremendous fate neither can refuse, their lives intertwine yet again.
