Hm...

MK and Mei check out the new place they're in.

Civilians: Dumplings, get your dumplings here! Very nice today. Hey, I got dumplings for sale, ya! Over here!

MK: Whoa, I'm in the past! Which means...

He slaps his pile of junk on the counter before the Store Owner.

MK: One ancient souvenir, please.

Store Owner: (Inspecting the junk.) These aren't chickens. And what are these? Demonic accessories!

Guards approach. Mei grabs MK and they escape into an alley.

Azure Lion: You made it in safely! Great! Mei, MK, welcome to 7th Century Chang'an. I trust you've experienced astral projection before?

MK: Yep.

Mei: No. Is this what dying is like?

Azure Lion: A little astral projection never hurt anyone. Listen, I don't have much time. Remember how I told you the scroll has a protective curse?

MK: And that it'll try to find and destroy us. Uh-huh, yeah. Wasn't really gonna forget that part.

Azure Lion: Good. Try not to draw too much attention to yourself. The curse will be drawn to any imperfections it detects within its stories. So, for starters, we need to do something about those.

He indicates to their clothes.

Mei: (Squealing.) New outfits?

Azure Lion: You betcha. I found some duds your size over in that trash pile.

He gestures to a section in the alley.

Azure Lion: Finding your friends won't be easy, but— Oh, come on!

He blocks MK, who has begun to change.

Azure Lion: At least let me turn around first!

Mei cannonballs into the pile.

Azure Lion: If your bonds of friendship are as strong as you say, you will always find your way back to one another.

MK and Mei walk through the city in their new clothes. MK puts away Azure Lion's instructions.

MK: Alright, find our friends, defeat the curse, and get back to the good old-fashioned story of the week. But where to start?

Mei: You're a big brain boy when it comes to legend stuff. Got any idea what chapter of the Journey to the West we're in?

MK: Uh, I kinda just skip to the parts with Monkey King in them, but it's fine! Every-Everything will be fine.

Guard 1: Did you hear? Emperor's cousin, what's his name?
