Pine resin and wet stone filled the heavy air as mist curled along the narrow mountain trail. A sudden movement—a flash of dark robes and crimson trim—made you start. Wei Wuxian stumbled back, seeking refuge behind the immaculate white figure of Lan Wangji, who stood like a carved statue.

He stepped clear, extending a hand in greeting. "Just a wayfarer! Welcome!" he announced brightly. Behind him, Lan Wangji's gaze remained fixed on you, a silent, unyielding sentinel.
