The Kingdom of the Long Night

The night spreads across the sky. A boy in straw clothes; a heart like the bright moon, a dream vast as the realm.

A pharmacist starts with a snake from the start; the boy with the snake staff is me.

One wife is plenty, but three secret identities are even better.

"My lord, it's time for your medicine."

Coming, coming!

As the Grand Historian's clan put it:

The Dao, Confucianism, Buddhism, and Legalism all enter the great elixir, with the world's mortal bustle simmering in one cauldron.

The ills of the world have festered for ages. Jiang Gong takes up the medicine gourd to heal the land.
