Liam Ren, who was sixteen and attending high school. lives with his mother, named Rose, in a small apartment on a country side in Eastern Europe. Liam did not know his father; his mother explained that his father died when Liam was born. Rose was working three different jobs to make ends meet, so she was not home very often. However, Liam and his mother still had a happy relationship. When Rose had time off work, they would hang out and have fun. To Liam, Rose was not only his mother but also his best friend. One day, Liam's friends at school came to him and asked if he wanted to hang out after school.

"Hey Liam, wanna hang out after school at the club?" "Sorry guys, but today's game night with my mom and I am not going to lose again." "Dude, I don't know why you try to beat your mom every time. You lose. Wasn't last time your one hundred twelfth time losing?" "I know, but I have been practicing, and I know this time I'll win." "If you say so, man, but you're going to miss out on the hot babes." "If you guys say so. See you later, Liam." After school, "Hnn.

I wonder what I should make for dinner. Maybe some ramen or some spicy dumplings. Yeah, that sounds good. Hey, Mom, I'm home." "Hey, who are you, and why are you in my house?" "Liam, get away from that man." "Mom, do you know him?" "Hello, Liam. I was just having a conversation with your mother." "Liam, come to me now." "Hey, Rose, can you not get involved when men are talking?" "Who are you to tell me that in my own house? You shut your trap, you insignificant woman!" "Hey, who the hell do you think you are to talk to my mother like that?" "So she hasn't told you yet. Tell me what." "Well, no matter. I'll just see how strong you've grown." The man throws a punch at Liam's face. Liam dodges the punch, but the man changes his attack to a kick. Liam senses it too late and falls. Liam's mother runs at the man's back with a knife, but when the knife hits his back, it breaks in half. The man turns around, grabs Liam's mother by the neck and repeatedly slams her to the ground until she starts bleeding, begging him to stop. He finally ceases and walks away, leaving her bleeding on the floor. He then returns to Liam, encouraging him to get stronger and fight him again one day. After leaving the apartment, Liam rushes to his mother's side, asking if she is alive. She responds by revealing a long-held secret about his father's identity. Liam is shocked to learn that the man who hurt his mother is actually his father. In a rush to save his mother, Liam carries her to the nearest hospital. The doctor informs him of her severe injuries, including broken ribs, head concussions, and a broken skull, leaving her in a coma for five years. Liam struggles to contain his emotions, feeling a mix of sadness and rage towards his father. He vows to seek justice and uncover the truth behind his father's actions.

Initially, Liam needed to travel to Blossom Tree Mountain where his mother had informed him he would locate his grandfather. However, Liam had never encountered his grandparents or any other relatives, as his mother had always been secretive about their existence. Despite this, he was determined to seek answers. Before departing the hospital, he glanced at his mother one final time, leaving his contact information with the doctor and requesting to be notified in five years when his mother regained consciousness. Liam exited the hospital, returned home to gather his belongings, and thus commenced his journey to Blossom Tree Mountain
