THE STORY

About The Abyss Penitentiary

Evan Cross has spent years trapped between worlds—his body awake, his soul chained in the Abyss Penitentiary. He's learned to endure. Until the dream changes. Behind bronze bars, the Monkey King opens his eyes and calls him: "Seventh Warden". Now Evan makes a deal: find the lost staff, borrow Monkey King's power, and finally break free. But as he hunts for the weapon, he uncovers a truth darker than any prison: the Abyss wasn't built to hold prisoners. It was built to hide what the Celestial Realm fears most. And Evan? He was never just a warden.
