The Wind Rises in the Azure Heavens

A Sequel to The King's Avatar: Nine Songs

I once asked my teacher, "Is this world truly ruled by fate?"

Ten years are enough to witness the changing seasons; a hundred years can prove that all living things are born and die. A young man can lament the rise and fall of dynasties, while ten thousand years are enough to see the stars shift in the heavens.

I once traveled through the river of time and saw my own ending. All I can do is what I must, then walk step by step toward that ending.
