Known as Ji Ao, Zhang Kao, he is a young prince without memory, unaware that he is exiled in a quiet town, Instam Belly, living as a simple citizen in the company of his mother and sister. Once the son of a powerful and feared king, he now walks despised and without prestige, in a world that neither accepts nor knows him... Yet he still carries a destiny capable of shaping kingdoms. Ruby is a relentless warrior, also the daughter of a tyrannical and cruel king, but a renegade, whose strength and presence command respect even beyond her powerful country. Indomitable and guided by her own principles, she bows to no one — yet Ji Ao awakens something that challenges her indifference. Walking in opposite directions — he, seemingly fragile, passionate and lost; she, impassive, dangerous and distant — they begin a dangerous dance, where only time will reveal who truly dominates the heart of the other. It is in this clash that Ruby leads him to the **White Forest**, a realm of fantasy inhabited by anthropomorphic creatures, where nature breathes as if it had a soul and every shadow hides an enigma. After losing Ruby, Ji Ao crosses the temporal rift, carrying the memory of her strength, the pain of absence and the inability to love another person. On the threshold between yesterday and tomorrow, something rests in his hands — the silent **Stone of the Three Destinies**, shrouded in mystery, as if Time itself had chosen it to accompany him. No promise is clear, only the premonition that each beat of the stone holds the possibility to change everything... or to lose even more. In a past where everything can still change, he must find and reconquer the young woman who does not recognize him, surrounded by five other youths who hide unknown secrets and challenges — and, little by little, rediscover his courage and strength, capable of facing destinies he never imagined.
