    “The time is 6:30 a.m.! Fifty-mile riders, the trail is OPEN!”

     

    Endurance riding: a real, actual sport for the kind of people who think riding a horse 50 miles (or more) in a single day sounds like fun. (It is! It is fun!)

    Come join Lan Zhan and Wei Ying (and Bichen and Suibian) as they ride really, really far — and maybe find themselves falling in love along the way.

    Summary

    It wasn’t bone. It was too smooth. It caught the light like something greased.

    “A curse,” Lan Wangji breathed, because it could only be such.

     

    The Twin Jades of Lan get turned to jade.

    Summary

    Hanguang-jun is dating a mild mannered, non-cultivator named Wei Wuxian. The Yiling Laozu rolls up to a nighthunt on a motorbike, no relation at all to the previous statement.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian dies at twenty-two and doesn’t come back. Lan Wangji dies in an “unfortunate accident” in a temple in Yunping at thirty-seven. The world moves on.

    Thousands of years later, Wei Ying and Lan Zhan have a senior thesis in cultivation to co-write on the Yiling Patriarch. It doesn’t go exactly how they were expecting.
    -
    “I still do not understand why you were able to read the journal in the first place,” Lan Zhan says.

    Wei Ying grins. “You’ll laugh,” he says. He won’t, of course. Lan Zhan doesn’t laugh. But maybe he can swing a smile. “It’s because of the name thing. He wrote his name into the scrambling talisman. So it says that no one can undo the lock but Wei Ying.” He hooks a thumb at himself.

    Everyone’s always said his name is unlucky. This is the first time it’s worked out in his favor. It’s not a coincidence either; apparently his mother thought it would be funny. Mrs. Yu had told him that with a curl in her lip, as if it didn’t make him wish he knew his parents even more.
