The sedition of Imbibtor Lunae is a devastation of a tragedy. Many lives were lost, both during and after the sedition, including the lives of 2 talented young apprentices of the High Elder and the Legendary Furnace Master. But where one chapter ends another begins, all will fall amiss the sea.
“General, what are you doing? I suppose you don’t understand that Scalegorge Waterscape is a sacred place for us Vidyahara folk, especially after the events of the sedition!” Preceptor Taoran asked the young General.
“I was invited by the High Elder herself, Lady Bailu to witness this occasion of birth that the seas of Scalegorge have provided since the sedition, and as the General of the Luofu it is with my utmost responsibility to welcome the new kin into the world.” Jing Yuan replied.
“I suppose if you are invited by Lady Bailu herself, then it wouldn’t be right for me to be rude around guests. Please walk this way.” He showed the General the way.
A group was gathered around circling the beautiful egg that encapsulated the young Vidyahara, ready to be let out into the world. A pearlkeeper was standing, protecting the egg until it was ready. A bunch of the Preceptors and Bailu were right in front, ready to welcome in the new kin into the world.
“Greetings everyone, it is with the utmost responsibility as the High Elder of The Luofu Vidyahara that we shall welcome new kin of us into the world as of today. It is my honor alongside the Preceptors that we shall welcome in Lunae into this world.” Baliu announced.
Throughout the proceedings of the ceremony, the egg hatched showing a young Vidy with beautiful pink hair and eyes reminiscent of the ancient sea, as beautiful as he was. The young general walked up and proceeded to bless him with his Xianzhou name.
“Welcome to the world, Ling Song Hua. May your journey ever be fruitful.” He slowly walked back away from the egg, knowing that this wasn’t the last time the 2 of them would cross paths, such as the hope of a new dawn.
