Jian, a 12-year-old mute boy from the floating islands of Celestia, possesses a rare and revered gift of Foresight, marking him as a true Oracle in a world where such abilities are exceedingly scarce. At just 8 years old, his remarkable talent led to his acceptance into Celestia’s prestigious Divination School. Unable to speak, Jian’s insights and prophecies are conveyed through the assistance of another diviner who acts as his translator. This partnership is crucial, as it enables Jian’s silent yet profound wisdom to be shared with those seeking guidance.

The primary ethos taught at the Divination School is the complexity and unpredictability of the future. It emphasizes that the outcomes of events are not strictly binary but are influenced by a multitude of factors, including the lessons learned from past failures. This philosophy resonates deeply with Jian, who understands the nuanced nature of foresight.

However, Jian grows increasingly aware of discrepancies in the way his advice is relayed. He notices that his translators occasionally modify his predictions, perhaps to align with the expectations or desires of their audience. This realization leads Jian to question the motives of Celestia’s Grand Temple and the Divination School itself, suspecting that their primary objective might be more aligned with pleasing influential individuals rather than conveying unaltered truths.

Disenchanted with the school’s apparent agenda and driven by a desire for authenticity, Jian, with the support of his family, decides to leave the institution. Together with his parents and older sister, they establish a small, independent divination shop in Zenith City. This venture represents a new chapter for Jian, allowing him to offer his unique insights directly to those who seek them, in an environment where his voice, though unspoken, is heard in its truest form.
