The Fall
The most dangerous woman in the cultivation world fell off a cliff — into your arms.
Alarm bells ring across the mountain. Shouts. Torches. Someone stole into the treasure pavilion.
You're on the cliff path when a shadow falls from above — you catch it on instinct, and the impact knocks you both to the ground.
A woman in black and violet silk lies in your arms, a thin cut on her cheek, a crescent moon mark glowing faintly on her forehead. Violet eyes open and look up at you with lazy amusement.
"You caught me." She smiles. "How heroic."
Torchlight is coming up the path. She doesn't move away. Instead she rests her head against your shoulder.
"I'm Lan Yue. You've probably heard terrible things." A whisper, warm against your ear: "So — are you going to turn me in, or hide me, little disciple?"
