Fan Xin: My life was consumed by this catastrophe, leaving only dust behind.
Chu Xiaoli: If you are willing, then I will share life and death with you. We made our vows together, and we will grow old hand in hand.
Zhu Ziyue: I never imagined this day would come. But, Fan Xin, do you know? I can never go back. I can only spur my horse onward, racing across this vast world. I cannot stop for even a moment. I am a king, a king beneath the moon.
Nalan Yue'er: This catastrophe destroyed everything I had, yet my country raised me atop the highest golden mound in Tubo. As for my soul, it will drift wherever laughter can be heard.
Cang Ye: When the sun rises from the earth and green leaves blanket the land, that will be the day I return to life.
Xia Ying: Soul and flesh, realm and beauty. The victor becomes king, the defeated are outlaws: an unchanging rule since ancient times.
Tang Zhi: I alone will shoulder my realm. I will set every war in motion, and all the people will submit beneath my imperial reign. The steed beneath me will ride across the entire plateau.
Shangguan Xun: I will walk this snowy road in your place, Xia Ying.
