Dragonbend Mountain is high, perfect for stargazing.
On the wedding night of the Mohist Hill seniors, Guan Shanyue and his wife, Gao Zi'an offered a song. Perhaps due to his tone-deafness, it triggered a celestial anomaly: a meteor shower that filled the sky. Young and old in the mountains looked up in wonder, never knowing that many among them would never watch the sky together again.
The night before Zhan Yu drew his lot, he sat with his wife, Feng Xu, on the peak until midnight. He never wanted to part from her, but if it were a contest between life and death, he would go first. His mind made up, his expression changed, and he could only look up at the stars. Later, Feng Xu escaped by lantern and devoted her life to stargazing and geomancy, never returning to the mountains.
Among the other Mohist disciples, thirty-five remained to guard Dragonbend. They too watched the stars from every corner of the mountain: behind the kitchen, on the rooftops of the library.
On the final night, a rain of arrows eclipsed the moon.
As they fell, their eyes still held... the stars.
Any rherons?
Disciples of Mohist Hill live for righteousness and die for it. No rherons.
What was gained?
Only a few more sparks of light for those walking the night road in the future.
