A widow with nothing left decides to become a vigilante and hunt down the supernatural creatures that killed her husband. The show moves with brutal efficiency: no filler, no speeches, just a woman methodically dismantling the forces that destroyed her life. Each creature represents a piece of her grief that has to be cut out. The animation catches every strike with weight. In three episodes it does what most series spend twelve trying to earn: a character so consumed by loss that you understand why she can't stop, even as you watch her disappear into the revenge.
On her wedding day, Liu Ruyan, daughter of the Liu family, is brutally murdered by the living dead serving the Old Mother of No Life. She is saved by Lantern Blade, who is on the trail of the Black Tai Sui. Swearing revenge, Liu Ruyan starts wandering alongside Lantern Blade. Their travels eventually bring them to a run-down town where many different forces have gathered. Beneath the hidden currents there, the truth about who Miss Liu really is slowly comes out, and a major battle is on the verge of erupting. Across three episodes, action, drama, and the supernatural meet in a revenge story.
