    Summary

    Still Ryunosuke finds himself writing more than he should. Each line is a little betrayal. You would like it here. They’re performing Botan Dōrō next week. And so on, and so forth.

    There is a moment where he almost crumples up the whole thing and starts over. The keyword, of course, being almost.

    You write like you’ll never see me again, Kazuma’s reply starts. Come, now. You know better than that.

    Or: distance, and how the heart bridges the gap.

    Summary

    "A family passed through here," the Patriarch stated. His sword appeared in his hand and he sheathed it at his hip. "It should be three dozen Wens. Where are they?"

    Lan Wangji felt his lips flatten, offended by the very notion of answering. Considering what he had just seen the Patriarch do to the Wens around them, Lan Wangji could only assume the worst of his intentions.

    Something flickered across the Yiling Patriarch's face. Then, oddly enough, he smiled. It was grim and understated, like a calm hand resting on a knife.

    "You won't tell me?" he asked. Lan Wangji didn't answer. "You didn't tell those nice Jins."

    Above an apprehensive curiosity as to what had happened to the Jins, Lan Wangji said, "Nor will I you."

    Those eyes flickered again, this time with surprise.

    "Oh dear," the Patriarch laughed softly, as if to himself. "What's your name?"

    _

    In the midst of fighting a losing war, Lan Wangji catches the special attention of the reclusive Yiling Patriarch. It's hard to say who is more indebted to whom.

    Summary

    The light still doesn't make sense against his eyes, but he thinks he remembers something like color. There is a lot of color around him, and he is able to discern white and black and a great deal of something else. It's a breathtaking splash of vivacity on a new canvas, where there had been no canvas at all for so many eternities. It is the most beautiful thing he has ever seen.

    Red, Xie Lian finally names it.

    -

    In a disorienting turn of luck, Xie Lian is rescued from State Preceptor Fangxin's coffin. He recovers his other senses in good time, but his sight is taking longer to return—decades with no exposure to light have weakened his capacity for it.

    His benefactor and worshiper, a wealthy and eccentric ghost named Hua Cheng, hasn't left his side for months.
