當蔡仁遇見皇帝的時候，他永遠不會有新的東西。 The autumn leaves littered the dirt road of Fu Shang, the sun setting over the mountains as a young man said farewell to his village and mu quin. This was his destiny, for when the winter of his eighteenth year arrived, his innocence would be taken away by the Emperor, a man with no remorse. "Come here," he commanded. "Take off your robes." My body shaking, I stammered back, "I-I don't understand." As I stepped back, trying to escape his grasp, I hit the wall behind me. I had nowhere to go. "Please," I begged, tears gathering in my eyes. He smiled and moved even closer. Why is this happening to me? I thought in despair. His hands reached out towards my robes, but everything went dark before he could touch me. Copyright © 2016. All rights reserved.

Beneath the eyes of the Exalted Celestials there are no immortals within the mortal realm. Beneath the eyes of this Eternal... Nothing is eternal for all is but an everchanging dream with the state of dreaming being the only thing that is considered everlasting. Heaven and earth... A man-made concept that holds no affections and merely toys with the hearts and lives of the myriad lifeforms that live within it... What meaning is there for the myriad lifeforms to bow to it? Reincarnation... So long as reincarnation exists in this world not a single lifeform may hope to obtain immortality. To be an Eternal one must sever themselves from the very concept of living. I alone am a being that has transcended the infinite cycles. Should I will it so I may easily drain the Yellow Springs of its escorting waters and allow this world's reincarnation to cease. Ghosts may wail, spirits may cry, demons may curse, beasts may howl, mortals and immortals alike may be damned for all that rests between this plane of heaven and earth must face a merciless tribulation. Ah... Is it cruel of me to do such a thing? What meaning is there to label one such as myself as evil when this world has no justice capable of judging one such as I? One may curse and bark at me as much as they will but it doesn't change the fact that I am willing to ruin this world to be an Eternal.
