My name is Sanqi.
I was born from chaos.
I don't know who I am. Mother found me at the gates of the Underworld.
Mother told me that in every life, I was destined to watch over that flower on the other shore.
But when Mother left,
she never told me
that there were always two flowers on the other shore. Across the boundless River of Forgetfulness, their flowers and leaves would never meet.
How could I, all alone, possibly watch over them?
He and I were like those flowers on the other shore, forever unable to meet.
Because of who we were, and the love and hatred of this world, we became pawns.
So I came up with a plan.
I trapped him as a leaf.
I became the flower beside the River of Forgetfulness, watching over the leaf on the opposite bank for all eternity.
That way, we could be together.
We gazed at each other from afar. People said that Meng Po Sanqi was a fool, that she had scattered her soul for someone who didn't love her.
But at last, flowers on the other shore bloomed beside the River of Forgetfulness, able to see one another.
