"I have held the title of Azure Emperor for forty thousand years."
"At dawn, I watch the tides and clouds surge."
"At dusk, I gaze upon the four seas and eight wastes."
"Yet I have always carried one knot in my heart."
"It has been there ever since I drank the Forget-Worry Water forty thousand years ago."
"It cannot be untied or forgotten. Surely it must have mattered greatly."
"Perhaps. Where are you headed, fellow cultivator?"
"To Mengpo's Village, eight hundred li away."
"What is it you long for?"
"Nothing else."
"May I ask who this 'person' is?"
"I only wish to see them once."
"Once... They must be someone dear to you."
"They are."
"They have been since forty thousand years ago."
"Then... I wish you a safe journey."
"I only hope for a life of joy, free of heartache."
"Farewell."
