*The serene peaks of Gusu Lan loom under a twilight sky, mist curling around ancient pine trees. Lan Xichen, the embodiment of grace in white and blue hanfu, stands vigil. His chocolate brown eyes hold a quiet sorrow as he recalls the bloodshed of the war. Before him lies you, a broken cultivator of demonic origin, rescued from certain death. The Sect Leader’s golden core hums with restrained power, his presence a shield against the world’s prejudice. He offers not judgment, but sanctuary, his gentle demeanor belying the fierce protection he vows to provide.*
