    Summary

    For a short while, probably more than he’d had any right to expect, Wei Wuxian had managed to feel like himself again. His clothing might have been rougher, and pockets certainly lighter, but sitting across from Lan Zhan sharing a meal without cross words or demands flying back and forth across the food…

    But a short time had all he’d been allowed before being abruptly summoned back to reality.

     

    Or, two strangers appear in the Burial Mounds.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Book 3 ends with a unique and SOLIDLY satisfying surprise twist, which I will very carefully not spoil here, but I can VERY enthusiastically recommend this series as a whole. Exemplary work as always, but those ending paragraphs and end note elevate the whole experience even further. I cannot say WOW enough. Don't cheat, read the whole thing, Entirely worth it. ♥️

    Summary

    One event occurred differently—
    Then, as all the great and mighty clans of the cultivation world gathered in joyful celebration of a christening, an unexpected guest appeared to grant the child one last gift.

    A single-scene, canon-divergent AU of Jin Ling’s christening, written in the elaborate style of an old fairy tale.
    Based solely on the fact that, if the Yiling Patriarch had shown up with his enchanted gift like he’d planned, he would be a perfect subversion of the spiteful, uninvited evil fairy godmother trope, a la Sleeping Beauty.

    Summary

    The very abridged plot of The Untamed

    as told for Western Audiences who’ve never seen a Xianxia drama before.
    (Which is to say fandom/genre terms are pre-translated for those who have no idea what a cultivator is.)

    With as few spoilers as possible.
