They say that when Liyue first arose, Rex Lapis once walked the land with a sword hewn from jade.
|
|
Despite the constant wear and tear of age, the jade edge, so bathed in blood, still retained a polished sheen as if brand-new.
|
|
The blood was washed away in the rain of a thousand years, yet the thoughts and grudges that gathered about it could not be so easily eliminated.
|
|
|
|
"Nephrite has the soul of the Bishui's gentle heart, and will in time cleanse itself of the remnant grudges within."
|
|
"But who will ease the agony that the jade itself feels for having become an instrument of slaughter?"
|
|
|
|
These words of a friend long-forgotten were both lament and sigh.
|
|
But the inexorable gears of destiny would drown out those compassionate words.
|
|

In the passing of many long years, many became mortal foes who once made merry together,
|
|

|

|
|
This jade too was once cut for love of peace and luxury.
|
|
|
|
When wine vessels are filled with blood, and when tender feelings are ripped asunder by cold ambition and reduced to dust on the wind,
|
|
Gifts ungiven and bonds unspoken will become sharp blades with which to cleave erstwhile friends. |
