Jhin has prepared a performance unlike any other for the Tournament of Souls: a daring, inspired, and supremely violent composition.
After all, this is his biggest stage yet--the whole world is watching.

They call him Maestro, but Jhin knows he is much more. The music is his mastery, the composition his legacy. He envisions violins yet un-crafted, reproducing his concertos in a musical mimicry of his own genius...
"The angle of the bow and the tension of the strings, locked in a violent dance. This is my perfect composition."
Features:Perfect the performance, and find the true Muse.
- 7 new artworks
The Empyrean once known as Jhin is searching for the source of his own artistic fervor. The enchantment of a dangerous Muse draws him inexorably across realms--a poison he could never hope to resist.
"I would sacrifice every realm for the merest glimpse of a true Muse." - Empyrean Jhin
"There she is, at the end of this colorful carnage--the answer to the question at the heart of every performance." - Empyrean Jhin
"My art is the one art. This ashen realm stands witness!" - Empyrean Jhin
"Art is a fire of ecstasy that will consume us all. Burn, as I always imagined!" - Empyrean Jhin
"A fire, a flare, a burst of variegation!" - Empyrean Jhin
"I am a slave to this Muse. It was Her spark that set me free." - Empyrean Jhin
