Description
“The first person to dig ziliujin fuel out of the ground could never have predicted that what they dug out was the beginning of a dog-eat-dog age.
Our entire life was but an ugly confidence game of greed; this is something everyone knows, but that they could not bring to light.
From where did this con begin? Maybe from atop the first clean white canvas sails of a foreign ship that sailed across the ocean, or from beneath the great wing of a Giant Kite as it rose unsteadily into the skies — or from a time even before that: as the spreading ziliujin, like an ink stain upon the earth, turned the great plains of the wild north into a sea of flames.
Or maybe it was when We… when I met Gu Yun in a world all covered in ice and snow.”
