    Summary

    Wei Wuxian is thirty-five years old, lanky and tough-skinned from the turns his life has taken. He's dirty with synthetic grit and the skin-sticky feeling of being in space too long, but he'd forgone a dry shower at the docking portal. He hadn't wanted to miss catching the hover, and it's been years since he's needed to look presentable. Years since there's been anyone he wanted to impress with his appearance. He should have known better. The Mess Popo had promised the views on Yueliang were beautiful. Wei Wuxian clutches the strap of his pack and swallows his snack around the sudden lump in his throat. She had no idea how beautiful.

    "Wei Ying?"

    Years after the war, Wei Wuxian finds someone he'd thought long dead.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian dies at twenty-two and doesn’t come back. Lan Wangji dies in an “unfortunate accident” in a temple in Yunping at thirty-seven. The world moves on.

    Thousands of years later, Wei Ying and Lan Zhan have a senior thesis in cultivation to co-write on the Yiling Patriarch. It doesn’t go exactly how they were expecting.
    -
    “I still do not understand why you were able to read the journal in the first place,” Lan Zhan says.

    Wei Ying grins. “You’ll laugh,” he says. He won’t, of course. Lan Zhan doesn’t laugh. But maybe he can swing a smile. “It’s because of the name thing. He wrote his name into the scrambling talisman. So it says that no one can undo the lock but Wei Ying.” He hooks a thumb at himself.

    Everyone’s always said his name is unlucky. This is the first time it’s worked out in his favor. It’s not a coincidence either; apparently his mother thought it would be funny. Mrs. Yu had told him that with a curl in her lip, as if it didn’t make him wish he knew his parents even more.

    Summary

    Bartender Wei Ying has been struggling to afford to live and continue his education after being kicked out of the Jiang estate upon turning eighteen. Three years later, a little dragon drops from the sky while he is walking home from a shift in the wee hours of a particularly dreary, rainy morning.
    Wei Ying could hardly believe his eyes! He had always been fascinated by magic and mythical creatures. But, oh no! The poor beastie is unconscious and injured! Taking it back to his apartment, he treats the dragon's wounds.
    Upon waking, the dragon turns into a man who can only be described as a handsome, princely figure right out of a fairy tale!
    As a thank you for saving him, the dragon, known as Lan Wangji, brings him back to the Cloud Recesses, home of the Lan Dragon clan. It is there that Wei Ying learns of the wider world kept from him, his far deeper connection to it than he ever knew, and of a deeper turmoil brewing in the night.
