As I gazed from above the walls of the imperial city into the cold, dark night, waiting for something to happen, a green jade flew my way. I grabbed it and read its contents.
"Your friends are about to arrive, quite an awkward timing if I may say. I'll be hosting them in my territory for now, so you don't have to worry about their safety and well-being."
The message came from the Wisest Sun. It detailed how Master Rain, Yuyu, Meng Hao, and his wife Yang Song had arrived to the Beyond. I wanted to go and meet them, but it was too early, and if they were with the Wisest Sun, they'd be safe for now. I had pressing matters to tend to, and reconnecting with old friends would have to be delayed for a bit.
By the way, I published the Second Volume of Requiem of Souls: The Herald Beckons.
