Brad Village chooses celebration without forgetting the bowls that will never return to the hearth. Beyond the wedding preparations, those who pursue old legends begin to uncover threats that do not belong to village life alone. A white pack, a black-clad swordswoman, and a banner that does not arrive in time pull the story outward toward the Empire. Mountain, sea, mourning, and morning remain tied together as ordinary people keep living while distant danger gathers.
