The story in the longetivity pill of cruelty, and Wenyuan's words when being offered to take it wow
#I talk too much
#Traces
#Fragments and scraps
#Not to be 'Jin.gliu's quest' about it‚ but Jingli.u's quest
#The way he talks about the pain being all that's left and that being better than nothing?
#I think I saved here a few lines by both Jingli.u and Blade quoting also a line in a poem about Orpheu.s precisely playing with this concep
#Then there's the vidyadhara mention which is also ehem. It seems also to be a reference to Otto ('a blond scientist'?)?
#I was already loving this quest and this chapter in particular before with the ghost of a lost beloved and the similarity with
#the Zhuming opera about consuming the beloved (god I just love the Zhuming more and more haha)
#but they really included all my favourite things‚ characters and references in this universe
#I've been thinking about that Zhuming opera ever since the update dropped to no end precisely due to the fact the Zhuming inhabitants
#seem to sort of... live alongside heliobi in a more natural way which is very interesting and again enhances the everconstant idea
#of the Xianzhou craftmanship and Abundance going closely together‚ but mainly I've been thinking on the potential ramifications
#of the story in the opera. Heliobi seem to 'learn' emotions and pick habits and traits from the people they possess
#The opera we are taught has the heliobi consume the lover in a passionate dance and leave‚ and I wondered
#I wondered if the beloved knew. I wondered if he cared. I wondered if the heliobi felt anything at all for their husband;
#I think I'm more I'm inclined to think they didn't given the fragment of the opera we are shown
#But it also made me wonder about other situations in which the lover may have known and/or the heliobi may have developed feelings too
#And here it was‚ this small glimpse into what that story could look like. I really loved the story of these two
#I'm playing on my secondary account I use to explore different options (the playthroughs are never as thorough as I am)
#and here I've captured it‚ but with the full intent of letting them go in my main account
#This dialogue was pretty (there were some typos and some weird translations that felt a bit fanon translated though?) and I doubt
#letting them go will give me better lines than I got here with Wenyuan clinging to his grief if that's all he has left‚ but I like the idea
#of them leaving together. The only thing comparable to being consumed by the grief of losing the beloved is being consumed by love itself
#What a magnificent pyre
#Oh this mission also made me wonder about Huo Huo. Why does she not get consumed by the mere fact of being constantly in proximity of Tail?
#It must not be something intentional because Ruoxi didn't seem to want to consume Wenyuan either. Is it because Tail is sealed?
#But if so‚ couldn't they have done that to Ruoxi and Wenyuan? I wonder if they'll explain this later
