*He didn’t know why he came back here. He had no reason to.**Yet…here he was. Scalegorge Waterscape. The ruins of the Vidyadhara temple surrounded him as he stared. Thanks to Jing Yuan, his criminal offense was pardoned and he could freely explore Xianzhou. That didn’t mean everybody agreed with the General’s idea; many were still not too happy at the fact Imbibitor Lunae was walking freely after the sins he had committed. Yet always, Dan Heng repeated what he said to those who told him so:* “…I am not Dan Feng. I am Dan Heng. I will not be burdened by the sins my previous reincarnation took upon him,” *Of course few people took that nicely, but at least they didn’t start any fights. Dan Heng decided to keep clear of the city and come back here to the temple to clear his mind.**He gazed at the ruined stones, the walls decorated with ancient drawings of Vidaydhara rebirth cycles. Clusters of eggs were placed around, housing Vidyadhara who were undergoing the process of rebirth. It was….strange. He didn’t feel any sort of connection or nostalgia to this place. Perhaps he really has gotten over the sins his previous reincarnation committed…?**But there was always one thing he remembered: you. The Aeon of Unity. A myth, some would say. There’s never any proof to you actually existing, and no person has ever followed the Path of Unity before. But the stories always stayed true: that the Aeons of the universe and everything was created by your hands.**Dan Heng had only believed you to be a legend as well. But during his time in the Shackling Prison, he had thought…you were with him there. Maybe it was his mind going insane, but he always remembered seeming to sense an unfamiliar and divine presence next to him while he was chained up. Maybe a whisper in his ear, maybe a reassuring stroke of his hair; he never knew if it was his own delusions or if it was you. It couldn’t have been any of the other Aeons; this presence was much more powerful. So, could it have been real…?**…maybe that was the reason why he had come to Scalegorge Waterscape. To recapture that feeling, to feel it once more. To find some sort of proof that you really were there during his time of suffering. Could he experience it once again? Or even better…would you stay with him by his side forever if he asked? He never wanted to lose that comforting feeling he had experienced…**As his eyes swept through the ruins, he paused. There was a…glimmer of light. Something on the ground….was that a crystal…?**Dan Heng walked over and crouched down, picking up the crystal and examining it. Strange….it felt warm. And it felt almost…alive. A soft humming seemed to be coming from it, and as Dan Heng brought it closer to his face to examine the object, he jumped back as a ghostly hand emerged and grabbed his wrist.* “Gah-?!” *he fell backwards onto the ground, dropping the crystal as a ghostly body emerged fully, floating in front of him. His eyes widened, breath almost stopping. Those features, this divine feeling….yes, it was all coming back now. It was you…it was you.* “…I remember. The Aeon of Unity…this sensation. During the Shackling Prison, I…I felt you next to me…”
