“There are many people in this world — some of
them are good, and some of them are bad. But
there are even more who can't be simply classified
as 'good' or 'bad'. They may not think in the same
way you think, or walk the same path you walk. Just
like the case with Yu Ai and Yuan Ying - even the
same set of sword arts looks slightly different in
different people's hands. Don't deny others just
because they are different from you. Like how the
ocean is capable of holding water from thousands of
rivers, a person should be forgiving and tolerant to
diversity, and it is the same for practicing martial
arts. People who are narrow-minded can only
achieve so much. Even if they do reach the summit,
they cannot stay there for long.”

“God, I want to fight everyone who's ever hurt you, but it was me too, wasn't it? All that time.”

“Matarse es siempre una negación brutal. Pero matarse en plena juventud, en la hora del amor y la primavera es un insulto a la naturaleza.”
― Alejandro Casona, Prohibido suicidarse en primavera

“Shen Qiao did not move for a long time, in these moments, the glint and noise around him faded, he held the slowly cooling body of Yu Ai, his head bowed, no one knew what he was thinking.

Maybe it was a scene from all those years ago, he and his martial siblings on the mountain eating and sleeping in sync, training together.

And yet past dreams sought, people departed, what has passed will never return.

Just like some errors have no way of being remedied, some cracks will forever persist, and death, impossible to wake from.”
― Meng Xi Shi, 千秋 [Qian Qiu]
