A sickly village maiden stands at death's door, yet a robust hunter seeks her hand in marriage. Thrust into a impoverished mountain village through time's cruel twist, she braced herself for hunger and hardship—only to discover her borrowed body teeters on the brink of the grave. Why would any man pursue a bride destined for the burial ground? Consumed by this puzzle, she accepts the betrothal, determined to unmask the fool who'd squander his gifts and dowry on a dying woman. In his embrace, her skeletal frame feels fragile as spun glass, prompting an unspoken question: does holding something so broken wound his very hands? What begins as curiosity transforms into an unexpected bond between hunter and ghost-bride, where survival itself becomes an act of devotion.
