About the Work
Beings who possess a mix of sacred and demonic blood are often bestowed with many divine trials. In this world, there is neither good nor evil, neither right nor wrong; it is the harmonious balance of yin and yang that sustains the universe. Yet humans, driven by their own righteousness and beliefs, take up arms and wage war against each other—a sorrowful reality beyond reason, rooted in age-old cultures and traditions.
If we continue to struggle with conflicting forces and polarities within ourselves, it is nothing but a divine challenge we must overcome. When opposing natures within us unite and harmonize, our inner turmoil will cease, and conflict will disappear from the world.
