    Summary


    After the burning of the Cloud Recesses by the Qishan Wen sect, those left of the Gusu Lan sect are taken to Nightless City as war prisoners. Lan Wangji is one of them, unwilling to join the Wens but determined to obey in order to keep the remnants of his clan alive.

    Years later, when rumors of a mysterious demonic cultivator gaining power spreads to Qishan, Wen Ruohan is intent on making him an ally by inviting him for a banquet held in his honor.

    Lan Wangji, who is focused on his muted existence, then discovers he has more to live for than just survival.

    __________

    OR A canon-divergent Cinderella-inspired AU featuring Lan Wangji as the Wens' servant, Wen Chao and Wen Xu as the horrible people they generally are, Wei Wuxian as the "terrifying" Yiling Patriarch slash prince, and A-Yuan being the best (fairy) god-child anyone can ask for.
