Chang'an Like a Painting

Her name is Jin Xin.

A koi in the pond, a great tree like a locust.

-

She seems to have no home. She seems to be the most ordinary little girl on Chang'an Street.

Because she has no home, she must find one.

Because she has no home, she must seek one.

Because she has no home, she must wander alone between the clouds and sky.

Sometimes she finds a home, as if she has found someone to rely on.

Sadly, this world is full of causes and consequences, past lives and present, people coming and going.

Some things vanish like smoke, some are forgiven and forgotten, and some remain impossible to let go.

The vast world is divided as clearly as the nine heavens, layer upon layer, each filled with different people. So only those who are alike can be together.

She loves the lands north and south of the rivers, and everywhere within and beyond the southern hills.

She has even forgotten what she wanted in the first place.

She only wants, wants to find a home.
