Fragrant Blossoms by the Yuan River, the Crimson Moon Locks the Soul

On the twelfth month, the waxing moon brings a sacrifice to Heaven and an execution. The old river path lies deserted. Beneath the tree, twin blades; beneath the tree, an axe. When the camellias wither, the road ends at the chopping block.

From North Island to South Forest, a mountain stands in the snow. Number Two of the East claims the Mandate of Heaven. At Sandbar, the tower scatters in the setting sun. In the Age of Steam, the meeting takes place in the park. At Frost-Snow Dragon City, ten thousand are slain. In Agla, hands clasp. At Red Moon Ghost Castle, cherry blossoms whirl; blood stains silk beneath the crimson demon sky.
