Six Studies of Graceful Beauty

The Six Academies and One Hall gather the finest scholars in the realm, along with nobles of the imperial family and distinguished official clans. Everyone admitted is well-versed in literature and speaks with refined precision. This is a place devoted to teaching and learning, reserved exclusively for men. Yet one day, a mountain spirit slips inside, gazing coyly and smiling sweetly, clad in ivy and carrying fragrant angelica. The peace of the Six Academies and One Hall is thrown into disarray.
