"Who are you, young lady?" Her grandfather would often ask.
The old carp had chosen to live alone in a cave ever since his memories started to fade, and eventually even his mind. He knew staying close to them while they were already facing problems would just make them suffer more. And so he took it upon himself to travel far through passages and trenches…..
Until he got lost in this maze, unable to return.
But Princess Jinzhu still tried to find him before they went to the surface, to be aided by the Snake demons. The Xi clan had promised them protection from those who harmed them.
Only now did Mina realize that the very people that lead them to the Xi clan....
Were the ones responsible for her parent's death.
"I am Jinzhu." She would try to remind her grandfather.
"Ah…. Shanhu." Her grandfather patted her head. "It's nice to see you again, son…."
