Three years after Jang Uk’s death and resurrection, he lives in isolation in Daeho, spending his days hunting soul shifters. The ice stone within him keeps him alive, but it also deepens his loneliness. His path changes when he encounters a young woman hidden away inside Jinyowon.
Jin Bu Yeon has been kept in a secret room after being pulled from Lake Gyeongcheondaeho and revived with help from Master Lee. She has no memories of her past and has lost her divine abilities. Her mother plans to keep her confined and marry her into the Seo family, treating her life as something to control.
While chasing a soul shifter into Jinyowon, Jang Uk meets Bu Yeon and mistakes her for an imprisoned priestess. Bu Yeon later escapes her room to catch a glimpse of the man she is meant to marry and crosses paths with Jang Uk again. Drawn together by circumstance and recognizing that each has something the other needs, she impulsively asks him to marry her.
Their renewed connection sets the stage for a new chapter in the conflict surrounding soul shifting, identity, and destiny.
