On one continent, a hidden city was celebrating the return of royalty.
On another, a defeated clan was about to make a deal with a devil.
Two stories that just so happened to have a shared origin of sorts, all thanks to a certain young man's interference.
But alas, not all stories are cleanly connected like this.
Others take a little more time to develop, and have a tendency to collide later.
For example, Pathos stated that he gifted most of Zhen Liu's lovers with gifts that allowed them to access [Chaos] in a manner similar to what Jin Fang did. One can't help but to wonder how a certain sheepy princess and a certain newfound tinkerer would develop their abilities.
Now adding on to this curiosity, let it be proposed that they practiced these abilities together due to the rare happenstance of attending the same martial academy, one that caters to all the nations in equal capacity in order to create a richly diverse ecosystem.
