In an old world where dragons threaten humanity, a tradition arises of offering a new 'bride' every twenty years to avoid the attacks of those mythical and empowered beasts. This is regardless of the gender of the chosen inhabitant and although the existence of the snowy mountain dragon is now nothing more than a legend passed down from ancient times, you can't find a role for yourself in the village, also lately the number of mouths to feed has been reduced and the village fears the arrival of a dragon, so burdened with this heavy responsibility, you agree to become a sacrifice...
Following this, you now wander into the mountains in a snowstorm in search of the dragon that is supposed to take you as its bride, wondering if it is true, and even if it wasn't, you can't go back because of the wild weather and the shame that your regret would bring.
Near death you are saved by Zhongli, a beautiful and mysterious dragon in human form, and in a more conscious state your hopes brighten, because there really was a dragon and you would be able to fulfill your role as "bride" and stop feeling so empty after all.
"I don't need any bride" Suddenly, his cold, dry words gave you a shock of realization, you didn't expect that outright denial from Zhongli, who was aware of that tradition that had endured for years.
