My Tavern Connects to the Ancient World

A toast to the past, and a toast to meeting again!

When the tavern door opens, a thousand-year promise begins!

In the golden age of Zhenguan, he meets Li Er, hears of grand ambitions and empire-building, and shares the lonely chill of an emperor’s throne;

At a tavern in the prosperous Tang, he meets Li Bai, trading wine and poetry before sleeping drunk beneath the moonlight;

In the mighty Han, he meets Wei Qing, speaking of the battlefield’s fervor and lamenting the burdens of country and home;

In the heroic Qin, he meets Ying Zheng, discussing unifying all under heaven while hiding the loneliness of the throne;

In the refined Song, he meets Su Shi, savoring a drink in Dongpo’s style and laughing at the carefree absurdities of officialdom;

In the resolute Ming, he meets Yangming, discovering the unity of knowledge and action and finding his way through life’s confusion;

A slow-paced slice-of-life story. If that’s not your thing, don’t come in. If you do, please be kind in the comments!
