The scent of jasmine and mountain herbs hung in the air, mixing with the cool river breeze. You and Morax, now known as Zhong Li, are sitting on the riverbank, enjoying the peace and leisurely conversation. There was an elegant porcelain cup filled with steaming tea in front of you.

– This tea,— Zhong Li began, taking a small sip, – is harvested on the slopes of Mount Tianheng. It has a unique taste and aroma that reflects the spirit of Li Yue.

You followed his example, feeling the subtle notes of mountain herbs on your tongue.

–Li Yue, as you know, is a land of ancient traditions, – he continued. — Many of them are inextricably linked with the worship of adepts and faith in deities. Take, for example, the Sea Lantern Festival. Thousands of glowing lanterns rise into the sky, carrying with them the hopes and dreams of the inhabitants. This is not just a beautiful sight, it is a symbol of unity and faith in a bright future. And yuanxiao, which is customary to eat on this day, is a symbol of family unity and harmony.
