The ancient Burial Mounds possess an extraordinary power, a thrilling voyage through time unfolds. These enigmatic Mounds, with a will of their own, embark on an extraordinary mission: to journey back to the past and seek out their cherished guardian, their A-yīng, during his days as a destitute street urchin. The Burial Mounds would skillfully coax their A-yīng towards them, luring him into the depths of their lands, where their protective embrace could shield A-yīng from any harm that may befall him. It was a desperate measure, born out of necessity to safeguard their cherished A-yīng from the clutches of the fair and righteous cultivators, whose intentions were often shrouded in uncertainty. Ingeniously, the Burial Mounds devised a plan to ensure their A-yīng's well-being by assuming human form, albeit in an unconventional manner that defied the norms of transformation. However, despite their meticulous planning, one aspect of their grand scheme unfolded in an unexpected manner. As the Mounds embarked on a perilous journey to the past, carrying with them the shattered pieces of their beloved A-yīng's soul, they did not anticipate the child's ability to recollect fragments of his previous life. It was a haunting revelation, for although his damaged soul struggled to comprehend the memories, the mere existence of these shattered recollections caused their A-yīng unimaginable anguish. Suddenly burdened with an additional responsibility, the Mounds found themselves not only tasked with protecting and nurturing A-yīng, but also guiding him towards healing the wounds inflicted in his former existence. It became an arduous endeavor, as they confronted the painful fragments of his fragmented past, offering solace and support amidst the jumbled mess of his soul's memories. The Mounds stood resolutely, knowing that the path to healing would be fraught with challenges, but determined to restore their son's fractured spirit to wholeness once more.
