Reforging the Condor Heroine's Ashes

She was once the proudest princess on Peach Blossom Island. The sword stroke that severed Yang Guo's arm also severed the bridge between herself and the truth. Sixteen years later, on the eve of Xiangyang's fall, Guo Fu knelt amid the flames of war and begged her former “enemy” to save her husband, Yelü Qi. The instant her knees touched the ground, the sound of her shattered pride rang clear, while the one-armed Divine Eagle Hero merely nodded in silence. This was a long-overdue revolution in self-awareness, from “Why doesn't the world revolve around me?” to “Who am I, really?” As their cups clinked in a toast, all the love and hatred, debts and misunderstandings of the past became amber-colored acceptance in the ripples of the wine. An epic of female awakening that explores the limits of pride, guilt, and reconciliation.
