A mystical fantasy plot based on a rare classical music tradition in Korea! An unusual world at the intersection of magic, music, and death.
In the Sacred City of Eden, where the god of music Motheoven reigns, every three years, on the most coveted stage for musicians, the “De Mocerto Contest” is held. For the title of the most talented musician, the best of the best compete—but for more than nine years, no one has been able to surpass Antonio Bael, a young, brilliant violinist. His playing fascinates the entire city, and even more so the young pianist Koya de Morphe, who dreams of earning his recognition. The crowd’s love doesn’t move Antonio at all. He has only one goal—known only to him—and he strives with all his might to reach it.
One day, Bael gets his hands on the legendary violin Aurora, which was considered lost for thirty years, and, according to legend, everyone who plays it will die. Is Bael brilliant enough to perform on the white violin and survive? And how is a string of mysterious murders in a city doomed by an oracle connected to him?
All answers lead to the mysterious Ice Forest…
