Amidst the fragile peace of 1954 post-Điện Biên Phủ, something ancient stirs beneath Việt Nam's war-torn soil. Hùng, a mysterious figure with no extraordinary powers, finds himself thrust into a world where reality unravels. As whispers of forgotten deities and monstrous entities plague the nascent nation, Hùng's quiet life is shattered. He must navigate a chaotic power system where spirits, magic, and unknown forces clash, threatening to plunge Việt Nam into an even greater darkness than war. The fate of a nation, and perhaps reality itself, rests on the shoulders of a man with only his wits and resilience against the encroaching tide of the bizarre and the deadly. Can he protect the peace so dearly won, or will the strange consume everything?
