An ink hand-scroll catching fire from the inside, and you are the brush-spirit on its last page.

Three points of ink a turn, spent on outline, texture and wash: fill a beast’s trust while its stamina holds and you record it into the book; empty its stamina and it is gone. Between recording and burning there is no third road.

At a glance

Beasts	6 (4 chapter leads, Qiongqi in the finale, Zhulong hidden); 5 can be recorded
Brush strokes	3 basic: outline 1 ink, texture 2, wash 1
A turn	3 ink, several strokes before you stop
Scenes	23 (prologue, Qingqiu, Fajiu, Kunlun, Zhongshan, the burning place, plus hidden pages)
Endings	3; the third needs a second brush, all four pages recorded and heartfire at zero

Language and progress

The game switches between Chinese and English; the English mirror lives at /en/. Progress saves automatically on your device; there is no sign-up.
