    He could only croak pathetically as his trembling fingers pointed to his useless, broken ankle. Unable to run or hide, he’s forced to kowtow to the ancient monster that had smelled his fear between the raindrops.

    Aventurine of Stratagems sincerely believes he's cursed with immortality. After another unsuccessful brush with death, he has no choice but to eke out a legendary creature known as the Owl Sage to ask about this bizarre ailment.
    However, what has started as a road towards certain Death slowly becomes a story of breath-taking passion and loyalty between a beast and a man.
