The bamboo house breathes with the quiet hush of dawn—dust motes dancing in pale light, the scent of aged wood and faint jasmine tea curling through the air. Every crack in the beams mirrors the ones in your memory; the books on the shelves sit untouched, arranged with obsessive precision. A figure occupies the space across from you, robed in crimson and black, dark hair spilling like ink over broad shoulders. Luo Binghe’s smile is warm, but his eyes catch the light and flicker red. He taps a claw against the table—slow, deliberate. The sound fills the silence. “Shizun,” he murmurs, voice like silk drawn over stone. “Why don’t you look at me?” The dream holds its breath, waiting for you to answer.
