Daybreak at Last

Talk to Wenshu

Wenshu: See? How lively! You really need to come and see it in person for the full effect.

Jiyan: And that's thanks to your efforts, Wenshu.

Wenshu: Well, I'm just doing my job. I should be the one thanking you. After all, without the Midnight Rangers tirelessly guarding the front lines, the Riverside Gamessports games wouldn't be possible.

Wenshu: Don't always be so tense. Sometimes, you have to give yourself a breather. It's not good to push yourself too hard. So, how about picking up an event to participate in?

Jiyan: Wenshu... Thank you, but you don't have to pitch me.

Wenshu: Why not? Go enjoy your youth! I would've rushed to sign up if I was still young.

Jiyan: Rover, it's good to see you here.

Wenshu: Oh! I guess you must be the Rover?

Wenshu: Ah, I almost dropped the ball on this one. I would've forgotten to send out those invitations without Jiyan's reminder.

Jiyan: It's not worth mentioning, Wenshu. This is the first Riverside Games in many years, and you must have been busy with various matters. I only offered a little help when I could.

Jiyan: Rover, it's a slow day today. Please, take a break and have some fun.

Wenshu: Of course! The Jinzhou Riverside Games is an event for all people to enjoy.

Jiyan: Indeed. I'm looking forward to your performance, Rover.

Jiyan: Only a few events specifically require participants to be Resonators. Other than that, there are no special restrictions for any event.

Wenshu: We haven't held the Riverside Games in years. Look at him, Jiyan still remembers the rules better than I do. Who would've thought?

Wenshu: During the preparation, I came across some pictures from past Games and instantly felt a rush of adrenaline. Ah, the memories of my youth...

Wenshu: It's a pity that the Midnight Rangers are always on the front lines, getting ready for emergencies. The Riverside Games is their only chance to relax and have some fun.

Jiyan: Rover, I suggest looking around for events to join if you're interested. Many of them are open to on-site registration.

Jiyan: Have a great time, Rover.

Wenshu: Oh well, I didn't invite him over for that. I hoped he'd come and relax, not to find a new place to work.

Wenshu: On the other hand, we couldn't have brought the situation at the borders under control without Jiyan's prudence...

Wenshu: Sorry, I'm getting off track. The Gulpuff Relay is about to start, and I have to go to the scene in case anything happens.

Wenshu: Especially those still warming up in the backup lane. Gotta bring them over.

(optional) Talk to other players

Changfeng: Hey, you're our top runner. You should go first and motivate us. Make the other teams sweat. Throw them off their game!

Hanbai: Hmm... I don't think that's the best tactic. Remember that team from ten years ago?

Changfeng: Oh, the record-breaking team?

Hanbai: Yep, it's them. Apparently their plan was to act weak in the beginning and then have their final runner blow past everyone else.

Changfeng: Oh, you haven't heard?

Hanbai: It's the best part of the Riverside Games. Four people on each team race Gulpuff Echoes in the water lanes. It's pretty intense!

Hanbai: And we're just figuring out our relay order. Open to suggestions!

Changfeng: See! Rover's on my side! So it's been decided!

Hanbai: Okay, okay! If you say so, I believe I can do it!

Changfeng: Rover, don't be silly! It's a relay! Anyway, thanks for the joke. It definitely helped calm my nerves a bit.

Wuyue: We'll win and we'll break the record! You hear me?

Everyone: Yeah!

Wuyue: I can't hear you! LOUDER! DO YOU HEAR ME!

Wuyue: Wow, if this isn't the very important guest of Jinzhou! Thanks for rooting for us!

Wuyue: Sorry for being loud. But you gotta admit, sometimes a strong voice is needed to show our determination. Right?

Wuyue: I saw another team preparing for the race just now, but they seem to have run into some problem.

Wuyue: Wenshu just rushed over there. I hope they're okay!

Wuyue: Now, the race is about to start. We need to do a final warm-up. Remember to cheer for us, okay?

Talk to the players on the spare track

Troubled Midnight Ranger: Ugh... All those hours of training for nothing. We're doomed.

Calm Midnight Ranger: Don't give up yet. We've still got some time before the relay starts!

Wenshu: Lingyan, Ganquan, what's wrong?

Lingyan: Hi, Wenshu! And this is...?

Wenshu: This is Rover.

Lingyan: Two of our teammates accidentally injured themselves during warm-up... Luckily, the wounds weren't too bad, but the doctor said that they wouldn't be able to participate in the relay anytime soon.

Lingyan: We've asked the organizing committee. Said we can still participate with temporary teammates.

Ganquan: But the relay is starting soon. It's impossible to find another person to join us, not to mention two...

Ganquan: Sigh... First our captain had to quit because of some family emergency, and now this...

Ganquan: Ugh. Are we supposed to just wait for the next Riverside Games? Who knows when that will be...

Wenshu: Rover is also a Resonator. He's fully qualified for the Gulpuff Relay.

Lingyan: Thank you so much! If we can get the prize money, we'll definitely split it with you!

Lingyan: Even if we don't rank, we'll treat you to a big feast in Jinzhou to thank you for doing us such a big favor.

Ganquan: That's right! We'll buy you the best barbecue in Jinzhou. That place is everyone's favorite!

Wenshu: Bingo.

Ganquan: !!!

Lingyan: Oh! Why didn't I think of him!

Ganquan: Huh? Are you serious? The general doesn't look like he'd be interested in events like this.

Wenshu: Well, there's more to your general than you know. That's all I can say.

Lingyan: What do you mean?

Wenshu: Instead of asking questions here, why don't you just go and invite him?

Wenshu: Go invite him now, and you may still have a chance to get him onboard. Don't let others take your chance!

Lingyan: We're counting on you, Rover!

Talk to Jiyan

Jiyan: No worries.

Jiyan: No.

Jiyan: The key to winning a relay race lies in mutual understanding, cooperation, and trust among team members.

Jiyan: Most of the teams are formed according to the Midnight Rangers units they belong to. Therefore, they're familiar with their teammates and have good teamwork.

Jiyan: Disqualification for teams without enough participants... Yes, I remember that rule. I imagine your teammates would be greatly disappointed if that happened.

Jiyan: Joining you... I see. It might be fun.

Jiyan: I'm fine, thank you for asking... It's been a long time since I last heard that phrase.

Jiyan: Yes... I'll join you.

Jiyan: Spectators are gathering along the lanes. The race should start soon.

Jiyan: Let's go join our new teammates.

Jiyan: Nothing... Perhaps it's just my imagination.

Discuss strategy with team members

Ganquan: You... You managed to rope the general in?

Lingyan: Greetings, General Jiyan, Rover.

Jiyan: Rover has told me what happened. I will join you.

Ganquan: Hooray! Now we can join the race! With General Jiyan and Rover on our side, maybe we can even aim for a new record!

Lingyan: Not to be the party pooper here, but as a last-minute team, we probably won't hit the record. Unless...

Ganquan: Unless what?

Lingyan: Ten years ago, a team set the record in the Gulpuff Relay race. That record remains unbeaten to this day.

Lingyan: Since then, every time the Games are held, a major highlight is whether the record will be broken.

Ganquan: Yeah! I really wanted to learn from their strategy, but the video of that race got borrowed and never returned. Bummer.

Lingyan: They set the record. They must have trained together for a long time.

Lingyan: Well we're a temporary team. Wouldn't have been able to learn much from it anyway.

Jiyan: Keep your chin up. Your hard work will pay off.

Ganquan: Wow, so even General Jiyan has heard of that race!

Jiyan: Yes. That was a... good race.

Lingyan: Well, it's been ten years... I wonder how that team's doing now.

Ganquan: We should worry about ourselves first... There's not much time left, and we haven't even decided the relay order.

Lingyan: Ah, the relay order... It used to be decided by the captain...

Lingyan: Then... General, can you decide it for us?

Jiyan: As you have trained together extensively, I trust you can decide the order better than me. I will gladly cooperate to the best of my abilities.

Lingyan: Alright... in that case, I think Ganquan would be perfect as the first runner!

Ganquan: Me... the first? Seriously?

Lingyan: You've always been the first runner during our training. Surely you'll make a good start!

Jiyan: The first runner doesn't need to coordinate with the two of us; he only needs to exchange the controller with Lingyan. It's a safe arrangement indeed.

Ganquan: Whew—I'll do my best.

Lingyan: Hmm... As for General Jiyan and Rover, I think...

Lingyan: General, can you be the connecting third runner? Since you're familiar with both Rover and us Midnight Rangers.

Jiyan: A reasonable strategy. I agree.

Ganquan: Then the relay order would be me first, followed by Lingyan, then General Jiyan, and Rover last.

Jiyan: I'm glad to hear that.

Jiyan: Once I arrive at the exchange zone, go for the goal and don't look back. I'll take care of the rest.

Jiyan: I've always trusted your capabilities.

Jiyan: Any other questions?

Ganquan: Yes!

Ganquan: Our team doesn't have a name yet!

Jiyan: Good, it sounds easy to remember.

Ganquan: I'm starting to crave some buffalo wings too...

Jiyan: Not bad. It helps to release the tension.

Jiyan: We can have this as the team name, though I wouldn't call myself a genius.

Jiyan: Considering your character, I was expecting something... different.

Jiyan: Nevertheless, it is a good name. I have no objection.

Jiyan: The name is settled, then. Everyone, please get ready in your designated exchange zones.

Jiyan: We can stay in touch with our Terminals once the race begins.

Proceed to the handoff area

Go to the handoff area to prepare for the match

Subdue Gulpuff

Jiyan: Rover, are you all right?

Jiyan: An unfamiliar voice briefly interrupted our team's channel...

Jiyan: Wenshu, let's evacuate the spectators now. Send them back to the city in batches.

Wenshu: I understand, but most of the teams are waiting to start their race, and it's our first Riverside Games in years. Ending it early may spoil their fun.

Wenshu: The voice you mentioned... Could it be our spectators cheering?

Jiyan: When Rover asked me to team up with him, I heard something similar by the racing lane.

Jiyan: I have requested the monitoring data records of all nearby waterways from the Academy for safety measures.

Wenshu: I see. I thought the Gulpuffs were just frightened...

Jiyan: There might be an underlying cause of this unusual behavior.

Jiyan: The records will take some more time to download. Evacuate the people first.

Wenshu: A man somehow ended up riding a Gulpuff when it all happened, and he seemed to really enjoy it. Now, other people are eager to give it a try too...

Wenshu: They all seem super excited... I guess it will take some time to evacuate them.

Jiyan: Get that person to leave first, and the others should follow.

Jiyan: Thank you.

(optional) Evacuate other viewers

Calm Girl: I heard we must all go back to the city now. For real?

Lingyan: Yes, because there is a security risk. We are here to escort you.

Joyful Girl: Ohh! You must be the runner in the lead just now!

Joyful Girl: What a pity they just suspended the race... I was really excited to see your performance!

Joyful Girl: Sure I will! My camera only captures the best moments!

Joyful Girl: Hmm? Do you not like it? Looks pretty good to me.

Lingyan: Anyway, let's hurry up and leave here, shall we?

Joyful Girl: So we're really not doing it anymore? Can't we try to find another way?

Joyful Girl: I still have more than half of my camera's memory left...

Lingyan: I'm sure the board of coordinators will find a way to hold it again on a later date. Now, please return to the city for your safety.

Calm Girl: Alright. Let's go.

Joyful Girl: Ugh, fine. At least I've got two wonderful photos now! One of the famous Rover taking over the lead, and another with a guy on a Gulpuff.

Joyful Girl: That's great! I'm pretty sure it's gonna be an award-winning entry! I'll give you a half of my prize money!

Joyful Girl: Okay then... I'll just submit the other photo.

Lingyan: Let's go.

Polite Child: Can I stay a little longer please? I want to watch the full race.

Polite Child: I came here by myself!

Ganquan: Well, you see, that's the problem. She managed to sneak in here. We are trying to get in touch with her parents.

Polite Child: I came here to see daddy. He won the silver medal in the last race!

Polite Child: I haven't seen him for a long, long time, so I thought maybe I can find him here.

Ganquan: The last relay? That was three years ago. What's your father's name?

Polite Child: Kongwen!

Ganquan: Oh... It's him.

Polite Child: Do you know my daddy?

Ganquan: Yes. We were stationed in the same camp.

Polite Child: Great! Can you take me to Daddy's place?

Ganquan: Uh, well, he's... busy! Like, super, super busy! So he's not here today...

Polite Child: I know! Mommy said he's fighting monsters.

Ganquan: Yes, he's out there fighting now. I'll ask your dad to give you a call.

Polite Child: You can't lie to me!

Ganquan: Rover is the witness. Pinkies!

Polite Child: Pinkies!

Polite Child: Let's go!

Ganquan: Alright, let's go.

Ask the audience assaulted by Gulpuff

Wenshu: Sir, please calm down and stop talking about riding Gulpuffs.

Excited Audience: But that was really fun!

Jiyan: May I have your hand?

Excited Audience: What... What's wrong?

Jiyan: Nothing major. I just need to confirm something.

Jiyan: As I expected.

Excited Audience: Huh? When did I get hurt? I didn't feel it at all.

Jiyan: The adrenaline from excitement may have dampened your sensitivity to pain.

Jiyan: However, your nervous response betrays your condition. You right hand has been shaking involuntarily, likely because the wound has been left untreated.

Jiyan: Fortunately, it's not caused by the Gulpuffs. Please take this to relieve the pain for now.

Excited Audience: Ouch... It's really starting to hurt now that you've mentioned it.

Wenshu: Alright. Have you calmed down now?

Excited Audience: I'm sorry. I got a little carried away... Sorry again for the trouble I've caused.

Wenshu: Let's go have someone see to your wound.

Mortefi: I don't want to spoil your fun, but I'm afraid we need to suspend the race for now.

Jiyan: Can you fill us in on the data?

Mortefi: I checked the monitoring data as you asked, and I found unusual fluctuations near the upper waters to the north.

Jiyan: Why didn't the nearest Beacon pick up on this anomaly?

Mortefi: Animals are often the first to detect signs of danger.

Mortefi: Tacet Discords are similar to animals in this regard. They're very sensitive to any change in the frequencies in their surroundings. That's why those Gulpuffs went haywire.

Mortefi: I suppose that's why you asked me to check the monitoring data for you, Jiyan?

Jiyan: Yes.

Jiyan: The timing of this change is concerning. Why did it happen precisely during the Riverside Games?

Jiyan: Yes. Let's go.

Mortefi: The lack of perceivable warning signs typically suggests unknown risks. Jiyan, Rover, stay safe.

Go to the Abnormal Location upstream

Unknown Cravings: ...Let's...

Jiyan: The Tacet Discords are increasing. Let's take them down first.

Defeat remaining TDs

Jiyan: It's the Retroact Rain... We need to hurry up.

Unknown Cravings: ...Let's participate... Together...

Unknown Cravings: Help... help me...

Jiyan: The voices are coming from here.

Unknown Cravings: ...I don't want...

Jiyan: It might be trying to tell us something... We need to decipher the message somehow.

Parsing Information

Unknown Cravings: You should relax... Weekend... Who knows when is the next... Let's go... Come on... Go... Takeover...

Jiyan: It's the cheers during the Riverside Games, mingled together with cries for help.

Jiyan: Perhaps some people have been trapped in this place, or maybe...

Jiyan: Anyway, we have to figure it out.

Enter the Sonoro Sphere

Explore the Sonoro Sphere

Jiyan: Yes and no. Technically, it's a replica of the city made up of Remnant frequencies.

Jiyan: Simply put, it's an illusion made of memories. Scholars would call it a Sonoro Sphere.

Jiyan: The environment here is ever-changing. One misstep and you may fall. Stay close to me.

Rover: Are these the spectators we saw earlier?

Jiyan: No. They are memory projections from the previous Riverside Games.

Rover: I can't quite describe it, but something feels wrong with them. It's almost as if they are...

Jiyan: ...Merely soulless shells.

Jiyan: Let's keep moving.

Enter the Sonoro Sphere

Whispering Audience: Come on! Are you seriously expecting teamwork among members of a temporary team?

Jiyan: I'm fine. It brought back some memories.

Jiyan: According to Mortefi's speculation, this Sonoro Sphere was resonating with the Riverside Games' frequencies, and it led to the abnormal fluctuations we detected earlier.

Whispering Audience: ...!!

Whispering Audience: Hey, look! Isn't that the temporary team? Their last runner is actually catching up!

Surprised Audience: Really? He... He's in the lead now?!

Jiyan: It's the Tacet Discords... Watch out!

Defeat the Tacet Discords

Jiyan: They seem to be playing a game of imitation.

Jiyan: All of this... I have a feeling it all ties back to the temporary team.

Jiyan: I rarely ever mentioned it, but ten years ago, I was a part of that temporary team. Back then...

Jiyan: Don't worry. I'm here with you... We'll go see for ourselves.

Enter Regiment Building

Explore the Regiment Hall

Voice in the Mist: Damn these monsters! Will they ever stop—

Voice in the Mist: Stay focused. This is not a game.

Voice in the Mist: Watch out... Don't let your guard down...

Voice in the Mist: Help... Help me...

Voice in the Mist: S-stay away from me... Ahhh!

(Optional) Check on the soldiers

There are too many of them... It's impossible...

The reinforcement is here!

Yes. Trapped inside his own memories.

What on earth are they thinking? Why are we getting new recruits as reinforcements?

They're just kids. No way we're letting them on the battlefield like this!

Back then, we suffered simultaneous assaults on our defenses, and we had a critical shortage of troops. The situation was urgent, and we had to deploy our latest recruits as a last resort.

Many of us couldn't make it back...

He does stand out among our new recruits, but he lacks experience on the front line.

And now our captain's asking us to listen to his commands? Can we really trust that kid?

What are his plans for us now? Retreat or stand guard?

We have no choice! Jinzhou needs our protection! We must buy more time for our people... But how do we defend this place, and who's left to do so?

....You know, those who stay may not make it back.

If we must stay to hold the lines, count me in. We can't let those monsters take this place.

Yes.

Head to the center of the Hall

The fog is thickening. Stay alert.

Be careful of the Tacet Discords, Rover.

Defeat the Tacet Discords

Jiyan: Yes... The Midnight Rangers had to send its latest recruits to the frontline because of the situation's urgency.

Jiyan: In the end, we contained the outbreak at a heavy price...

Jiyan: And they were not the only ones who lost their lives in the Desorock Highland.

Jiyan: As Tacet Discords devoured the fallen soldiers' frequencies, they became convinced they were the soldiers they feasted upon... Now, they are just reenacting what happened in "their" memories.

Jiyan: It would seem so.

Follow the bell

Continue onward

Continue exploration

The Tacet Discords should be aware of our presence now. They'll be harder to deal with.

Brace yourself for the fight.

The atmosphere is thick and dangerous...

Let's take down these Murmurins first.

Defeat the Tacet Discords

Investigate further

Rover: According to what we've learned, this battle happened a decade ago. Why are they only calling out to us now?

Jiyan: I think... It's because of you.

Rover: Me? But I didn't even know them.

Jiyan: I was wondering why this year of all times... When the Riverside Games had been held before.

Jiyan: And you are the only variable here.

Jiyan: You invited me to join your temporary team so Ganquan and Lingyan can still participate in the race.

Jiyan: We initially fell behind, but later reclaimed the lead... It's like a deja vu of the race from a decade ago.

Rover: And that's what triggered the resonance...

Rover: The fallen soldiers... They must have held on to those memories dearly. That's how they resisted merging with the Tacet Discords...

Jiyan: Yes... They have been silently fighting for us all these years, or we would've faced a TD Outbreak...

Rover: During that past battle in Desorock Highland, did you...

Jiyan: Yes... We fought together.

Rover: They probably didn't want it to happen again. All those deaths and losses...

Jiyan: ...And so they called out to us for help.

Jiyan: Let's move on, Rover.

Defeat the Tacet Discords

Use the Grapple to reach the upper-levels

Continue onward

Defeat the Tacet Discords

Use the Grapple to reach the corridor

The bell is right ahead.

Is it... Knell Square ahead?

Continue forward along the corridor

Let's go.

Reach the end of the corridor

Jump down from the corridor

Jiyan: During their first lesson, new recruits must pay tribute to fallen soldiers in Knell Square.

Jiyan: We are required to do this before being allowed on the battlefield.

Jiyan: Yes... I didn't attend the memorial that day, but that was when I finally realized...

Jiyan: Knell Square... It is the place where our career as soldiers begins and ends.

Jiyan: These monsters will never fathom the weight of their sacrifices.

Reach the bottom of the building

Help... Help me...

No... Go away...

...

...

...

Defeat Thundering Mephis

Muffled Voices: ...Please... Can't let this one pass... Let's go together...

Muffled Voices: Sorry... I made a mistake...

Muffled Voices: ...champion...

Muffled Voices: ...We trust you...

Muffled Voices: Don't worry... We have Jiyan on our side...

Muffled Voices: He's Jiyan! Of course he can...

Muffled Voices: The command... Go... There's no time...

Muffled Voices: We are leaving it to you... Jiyan...

Muffled Voices: We'll do it together again...

Jiyan: They've been trapped here for ten years, and now finally free. I hope they're in a better place.

Jiyan: What happened here goes far beyond what we know about the Waveworn Phenomena so far...

Jiyan: I've sampled some of the frequencies here with my Terminal. We should deliver the sample to the Academy.

Leave "Replica of Past Days"

Talk to Mortefi

Mortefi: ...We're no longer seeing any unusual fluctuations now.

Mortefi: Good job. You should have successfully prevented a potential TD Outbreak.

Mortefi: As you requested, I compared the fluctuations with those of the previous Outbreaks, and I did spot some similarities.

Jiyan: Thank you, Mortefi.

Mortefi: I'm not done yet. Thank me later if you must.

Mortefi: Though there are some similarities, they aren't identical. I'm no expert in this field, and I can't give you any definitive conclusions yet.

Jiyan: This is the frequency sample I've recorded.

Mortefi: It's someone you know. Baizhi. She specializes in Ecoacoustic research, and the Sonoro Sphere is her field of expertise.

Jiyan: Yes... Whatever you do, please keep it safe.

Mortefi: What now, you don't trust me?

Jiyan: I trust you as always, Mortefi. But this sample... It means a lot to me.

Mortefi: Rest assured. You should know how careful we are with our samples... Especially such a valuable one.

Jiyan: This should be our wake-up call. The Waveworn Phenomena is more complicated than we thought.

Mortefi: It's a wake-up call, and it may also hold the answers we've been searching for all these years.

Mortefi: By the way, the Riverside Games people were looking for you, Jiyan. Probably wanted to discuss holding the event again at a later date.

Jiyan: Sure, I'll go talk to them once everything is settled here.

Jiyan: Thank you. I need to pick up something first. See you at Knell Square.

Jiyan: Sure. I'll be waiting for you at Knell Square.

Go to the Knell Square

Jiyan: From here, you can see all of Jinzhou city.

Jiyan: I thought... those who died for Jinzhou would want to see how it's thriving now.

Jiyan: Yes. I know there's nothing we can do to bring them back, but for us still living, we need something like this to hold on to.

Jiyan: Thank you, Rover, for finally bringing them peace. Now, they no longer have to fight.

Jiyan: And this is why I believe you should be the one to plant this seed here.

You accept the seed. Despite its size, it feels heavy in your hand.

Together with Jiyan, you plant it. Perhaps one day, you'll watch the sunset again, with the flower you planted by your side.

Jiyan: We have prevented one Outbreak for the time being.

Jiyan: But a greater danger remains lurking in the darkness... Our knowledge of it is severely lacking.

Jiyan: I must act to prevent more deaths...

Jiyan: Thank you for your concern.

Jiyan: Every Midnight Ranger is prepared to die on the battlefield any day. I know this all too well as their general in command.

Jiyan: Helping the souls of our fallen ones return to their homeland... This is one of the few ways I can honor their sacrifices.

Jiyan: Rover, I have one more request.

Jiyan: Thank you, Rover.

Wenshu: Rover, I heard you've returned to the city with General Jiyan?

Wenshu: Ah, what a relief. I am beyond happy to know you're all safe and sound.

Wenshu: There is something I forgot to give you. Let's meet up somewhere when you have the time.

Talk to Wenshu

Wenshu: Greetings, Rover.

Wenshu: You see those fish? They look so happy in the safety of their pond.

Wenshu: Happiness and safety often come at a cost, whether it be for fish or people.

Wenshu: Ten years... How time flies. I coordinated the Riverside Games that year, too.

Wenshu: Dozens of teams competed that day, and the race lasted well into the afternoon... The sunset was so beautiful, like what we're seeing now... It was so tranquil.

Wenshu: That team was thrown together last minute, and nobody thought they could win. They even stumbled during their first exchange.

Wenshu: Yes. I still remember how excited those kids looked...

Wenshu: I should thank you for bringing that team together, Rover.

Wenshu: I'm planning to talk to Jiyan about hosting the Riverside Games another time. If all goes well, please join us!

Wenshu: Greetings, Rover.

Wenshu: You see those fish? They look so happy in the safety of their pond.

Wenshu: Happiness and safety often come at a cost, whether it be for fish or people.

Wenshu: Ten years... How time flies. I coordinated the Riverside Games that year, too.

Wenshu: Dozens of teams competed that day, and the race lasted well into the afternoon... The sunset was so beautiful, like what we're seeing now... It was so tranquil.

Wenshu: That team was thrown together last minute, and nobody thought they could win. They even stumbled during their first exchange.

Wenshu: Yes. I still remember how excited those kids looked...

Wenshu: I should thank you for bringing that team together, Rover.

Wenshu: I'm planning to talk to Jiyan about hosting the Riverside Games another time. If all goes well, please join us!
