About Shadow Self
In a world where ancient gods and mythical beings shape the fate of mortals, Raven Guang’s life is about to change. Living in New York City, she feels a deep connection to her multicultural roots but is thrust into a hidden world she never knew existed.
Raven soon realizes that people globally are being possessed by agents of darkness, turning them into pawns of malevolent forces. Determined to fight this rising evil, she embarks on a perilous quest that tests her in unimaginable ways.
At the Mountain of Solitude, Raven discovers her latent powers as she faces trials that peel back the layers of her past, fears, and weaknesses. Guided by Masters Rui and An, elders among monks and nigu, her resolve strengthens with each challenge.
Her journey leads her to the Temple of Immortals, where gods and deities set trials that test her heart, mind, and spirit. Each floor presents new challenges, and she forms bonds with fellow trainees, including the enigmatic Nate, whose hidden nature complicates their relationship.
As Raven delves deeper into her training, she uncovers a connection to Noor Shen, a semi-deity absent from ancient scrolls, hinting at a forgotten story intertwined with her destiny. The narrative unfolds through breathtaking landscapes – from ancient swaying bridges to serene bamboo forests.
Traveling between New York City and the monastic realm, Raven experiences time travel, telepathy, and supernatural strength. Her journey is a beacon of hope and resilience, reminding us that the greatest battles are often fought within, and defeating evil lies in the purity of one’s heart and the strength of one’s spirit.
