Summary
“It is then—like the first rays of sun cracking through the clouds after a tempest, shining down on massacre, like hope seeping up through the roots of moldering bone and absorbing into the atmosphere where all creationary reactions occur, assembling that final puzzle piece that Lan Zhan needed to reach a determination he cannot back out on—that Wei Wuxian smiles at last, full and toothy and curving his eyes and filling his cheeks, lips wet with tears that shine in the dying sun.
He smiles like a flag still standing erect on the battlefield, like a flower still upright after the storm, like a rock steadfast against a feral sea, a symbol of how he has gotten through one hundred percent of his worst moments and certainly isn’t stopping here.
And words could never be enough to ease the demons. Lan Zhan could never join the right sentences together that could make him make peace with the world. There is nothing he could ever verbalize that would ever make the defamation, the loss of loved ones, the carnage of mind and soul—nothing he could say could ever make any of it worth it.
No, speaking of it would never work. But actions have always spoken louder than words.”
