    Summary

    The Cloud Recesses Guest Lectures were held every three years for disciples between the ages of fifteen and eighteen. They had three purposes.

    The first (and the reason it was hosted by the Lan) was to provide a shared baseline understanding of the core cultivation topics that underpinned every sect while not divulging clan-specific approaches.

    The second was to create opportunities for friendships and alliances that would reduce the chance of war between the clans.

    The third, and most important, was for the clans to replenish their bloodline by finding compatible mates with strong cultivation skills. In the last month of the lectures, challenges to test compatibility may be issued.

    Wei Wuxian challenges Lan Wangji, sure that they are compatible mates. The Lan refuse to allow the Challenge.

    They come to regret it.

    Summary

    The stories changed from person to person, some said he was a monster, others that he was a heavenly officer who had come down from the heavens, and there were others who said that it was not a single being, but multiple ghosts in one body; the myths grew with the years, the only thing that remained the same was this: Anyone with a wish could go to the little shrine on the outskirts of Yiling, just above the mountain, before the Burial Mounds and pray, and if they left the right price, their wish would become true

    Wei Ying was 6 years old when he entered the Burial Mounds
    12 years later the Yiling Laozu, the legend, the monster, the wishing-granting demon that created his own sect deep in the mountains, joins the Sunshot campaign

    Summary

    Before Wei Wuxian can say he will join Jiang Cheng and attend the Wen indoctrination, a letter describing the burning of the Cloud Recesses reaches Lotus Pier.

    Realizing the danger to the Jiang sect, he decides to stay behind to help with the defenses and keep his sect safe. While he agonizes over the fate of the disciples sent as little more than hostages, he upgrades the wards of the Jiang sect to stand against the inevitable Wen army.

    Lotus Pier will survive, and Wei Wuxian changes his own fate and the fate of the Sunshot Campaign.

    Summary

    He can’t get Jin Guangyao’s words out of his head.

    If he’d only believed in Wei Wuxian, if he’d only been willing to stand up for him, could it all have been avoided?

    Summary

    “If we give him a bride,” Jiang Cheng says, solemnly. “They give us an army.”

    The bride that they seek is of the blood of a fox, and Wei Ying is the last of his kind.

    It can only be him.
