    Summary

    For centuries, the villagers surrounding the Qianlian Forest have been beholden to a fearsome creature. A once loved Prince was long ago cursed into a monstrous form, and ever since has required the sacrifice of maidens to ensure the safety of the forest and the people living around it. This forlorn tradition might have continued for centuries longer... but when it comes time for Lotus Pier to send a maiden as tribute, Jiang Yanli is chosen, and Wei Wuxian won't stand for it. His plan is simple; he'll send Jiang Yanli off to live the long life she deserves with her fiancé, and offer himself as a sacrifice to the Prince instead.

    Summary

    Lan Wangji feels his heart break. He wishes he could scoop the children up and hide them somewhere, where nothing will ever hurt them again. “Please, all of you eat,” he pleads. “There will always be enough from now on. It is my promise.”

    “You’re too good, Hanguang-jun,” Wei Wuxian sighs. “You’ll make a wonderful father someday.”

    “I will have learnt from the best,” he nods at Wei Wuxian. The man’s cheeks fill with colour so pretty, Lan Wangji has to turn away entirely in order to breathe again.

    ———

    A storm thunders violently, the forest howls in pain, and children are disappearing into the night. Amongst it all, Lan Wangji encounters a strange, beautiful man. And his five children.

    Summary

    Holding Wei Ying tight in his embrace, he mumbles, “Wei Ying, look.”

    Wei Ying lifts his head from Lan Zhan’s chest and gazes upwards at the midnight sky. “What is it?”

    Lan Zhan smiles and softly continues, “I heard that on a night like this when the stars are the brightest, you may make a wish and it will come true.”

    Or

    Wei Ying is a maker of fine silk and talented in embroidery. He meets mysterious Lan Zhan in the early months of winter, and their love begins to bloom. As the season worsens, so does Wei Ying's condition. Out of desperation, Lan Zhan reveals a secret he never intended to show.

    Summary

    Someone is staring at him. 

    They can’t be any older than he is, silver-grey eyes wide as he peers into the still water… The shout of excitement, the exposure - it never comes. 

    Instead, something pokes Lan Zhan in the side of the head. He opens his hand to allow the necklace to fall into it. A peace offering. The child winks down at him, his finger coming to his lips- I won’t say anything. 

    Is this human child… protecting him?

    Lan Wangji has always been secretly curious for knowledge of the human world, a forbidden trait shared only with his late mother. When a fateful tempest sweeps Wei Wuxian into his life once more, Lan Wangji finds himself drawn from the Cloud Recesses, chasing after long-suppressed dreams of love and freedom. However, he must take heed and defend what he has come to love- his precious dreams do not come cheap, when both of their worlds eagerly seek to tear them apart.
