As Ray heals the forgotten poor, his miracles draw attention from dangerous enemies… and awaken memories they tried to erase. He uncovers the truth: his ex-wife’s family sealed him as a child and stole his identity to hide a crime so ancient the kingdom nearly fell. When he learns that a catastrophic plague, engineered by his own clan centuries ago, is returning, Ray must decide: Will he save those who betrayed him… or watch the kingdom burn?

And while the world feasted on arrogance, he studied. Mastering the ancient secrets of Eastern medicine, decoding the pulse of life and death itself. Now, he returns.

The rise of Shen isn’t a comeback. It’s a reckoning. And the world will remember the name they once tried to erase.
