    Summary

    Wen Qing and Wen Ning surrendered themselves to Nightless City to save the people left behind.

    When Wei Wuxian wakes, furious and ready to tear the cultivation world apart to bring them back, the Wen remnants stop him—and A-Yuan’s terrified cries force him to see what their sacrifice was meant to buy.

    Time.

    So Wei Wuxian does the one thing no one expects.

    He runs.

    Before the clans can siege the Burial Mounds, Wei Wuxian scatters the Wen remnants through hidden tunnels, leaving behind only ghosts, corpses, and an empty mountain waiting for righteous cultivators who arrive too late.

    Summary

    It had been over 200 years since the war between cultivators left more than half the land ravaged and uninhabitable and the practice of cultivation punishable by death.

    Despite the risks of being caught as a practicing cultivator, Wei Wuxian took on the hunt of a dangerous yao that had destroyed a small village and killed all of the civilians. While searching for the demon, he encountered a mysterious cultivator dressed all in white. Wei Wuxian was excited to finally meet another cultivator, but instead of greeting him or making pretty much any conversation at all, the man attacked Wei Wuxian on sight.

    There is NO WAR in this fic. This takes place two centuries after the war happened, and it has a sort of post apocalyptic vibe. This is a story of rebuilding and finding safety. It's about found family and forming a new society away from the old one that persecuted them.
