Could there be a story without the strain of political scheming, the heartache of being used, the absurdity of misunderstandings, or the pain of parting?
Perhaps a story like that could not even be called a story.
To save the person he loved, he resorted to forbidden magic and sent her to the past, hoping that his powerful self back then would find a way to save her life.

To write this story, I reread the Duke Yin section of the Zuo Zhuan, and I still need to study the Book of Songs and the Book of Documents. The Book of Documents is genuinely hard to read, but I strongly recommend giving it a look. It is ancient writing in its purest form. I never expected the language of the past to be so concise and forceful, so wonderfully refined! It's modern vernacular that's wordy, I tell you!
