After the flames died down, Liu Anran found a thumb ring in the rubble. She kept it as a vow, a vow to kill the coward who preyed on the helpless.
She parted ways with her brother and became one of the Velvet Shade, a place she knew would let her take her revenge the fastest.
There, among the Khitan, she met a woman. An older sister figure, someone burdened with shame for what her own father had done. They became friends.
And still, Liu Anran killed the man, her friend's father.
She left the glittering halls of Revelry Hall, returned to the dust and grit of the mortal world. Then, she opened a shop. In Kaifeng, she met that friend again, but the woman had long since shaved her head, and left all worldly ties behind.
