Even Dan Heng felt something was wrong when he looked at Laigushi's photograph.
There was something deeply strange about the Antikytheran's appearance.
If he truly was the mastermind behind Amphoreus's disaster, and he had been hiding in humanity's last city-state...
It was almost too hard to believe.
And extremely dangerous.

Dan Heng looked up from time to time, trying to find Aegle's shadow in the clouds, but never saw a thing.

"Dan Bao, what are you doing?" Feng Jin asked, turning back.
"I'm sorting through what we know."
Dan Heng said gravely:
"Outside Amphoreus, we call gods Aeons, not Titans."
"Aeons generally don't speak to people, and they can't
