Princess Changsheng

"They say that decades ago, the Evil Goddess was reincarnated as the little princess of Island Pass Country.

She set half the imperial city ablaze, shattered her homeland overnight, cost her younger brother a leg, and her fiance his life.

She is beautiful, and can take the form of anyone's closest loved one.

She won't be satisfied until she's ruined your family and left you with nothing. She travels alone, accompanied by a tiger, with a blood-red 'human-face drum' on her back..."

"Ahem, it's a peach blossom drum."

Tianshui feels terribly aggrieved.

As the Evil Goddess herself, said to bring ruin to husbands, family, and country, she's lived an unusually well-behaved life these past few decades.

Though she's no good at entertaining guests or cooking, she's escorted caravans, impersonated a bride, worked as an assassin, and even swept the corridors of a brothel.

So why does she keep running into the old acquaintance she was supposed to have cursed to death at every turn in life?

Could it be that mortals really are reincarnated, and that fate itself has decreed their love?

When he smiles, he is like moonlight melting into gold. No matter which life or world it is, he seems unchanged:

"You once said that for most of your life, you were always adrift, with nowhere to call home. If you're willing, I..."

"I am. I'd be willing even to pluck the stars and moon from the sky."

Besides this, one by one, old acquaintances mysteriously return from the dead without realizing it. Prophecies speak of an apocalyptic calamity, and interwoven memories seem to point to a strange secret of immortality beneath the sea.

In the end, as a perfect melody plays...

Dreams of fleeting splendor, years pass and old friends grow few.

You shine like daylight through the long night; stars and moon fall like a white colt flashing past.

Theme: Life cannot last forever, but some things can.
