When you get hit point-black in the back of your head, it was hard to tell that it happened in the first place—everything started becoming black and you just kind of lost consciousness. He found himself blinking once, feeling a little tired and then nearly found himself toppling over to the cement. Things didn't happen in slow-motion in real life, but in his vision, the boxes of mooncakes were in the air. Han Jing caught himself from falling by virtue of his reflexes catching him even when his own…-

"Look at this new human—who is he to enter this place?" "How did this guy arrive here though?" Did Han Jing expect that the reactions of the Spirits would be like that? He found himself wrong. The young man was pushed back and forth through the crowd of the definitely 'physical' spirits that were present in the streets of the city. He didn't phase through them and found that they were made of ectoplasm, instead they were solid and it actually hurt to get hit by them. Han Jing actually proved to be a…

Did he think that the streets of his city were actually empty during the Mid Autumn Festival? A Moderator would have laughed at that. It was a special day. While there were no humans present as Han Jing was reassured as he ran with freedom and without a care—there were far more individuals and creatures that also celebrated the day. A day that took note and commemorated bountiful harvests and worshipped the moon.Even if they lived in narrow alleyways of the city and were far from their natural…

"You try to sound like you're different from your parents, but you're also not risking that much, aren't you, Han?" "That's…" Han Jing wondered if they knew what it exactly felt like being compared to one's parents' negative attributes. Like most kids, he grew up being proud of his parents and his father… but somewhere down the line, you realized that they were human like yourself. Prone to bad decisions and mistakes. Mistakes and faults in characters that Han Jing swore he'd avoid because he'd seen…

The Mid Autumn Festival was far from over, but it was the end of Han Jing's short meeting with the other Races. Gone were the sight of glue and other assorted items that lay on the wooden desk, no more glitter or nice little shells. Faeranduil the Wood Elf from the realm of the Fey was gone. Jilanya the Demon Lord from the Abyss was also leaving. The closest that Han Jing had to a friend was Odele the Mermaid but even her place was in the deepest parts of the ocean. The territory of Merfolk far beyond…

Before Han could raise his own arguments against Professor Owen's decisions—Han Jing found himself bolting up in his bed. The Wood Elf who had been shaking his shoulder, eventually just sighed. "You're a heavy sleeper, aren't you?" "Why did you wake me up, Faeran!" Han Jing groaned and rolled back into bed. "I was at a crucial point with the people—what if I end up in jail or court?" The Wood Elf who may or may not have been sympathetic to Han Jing's current circumstances only sighed and shrugged.…

It'd be nice if the three of you could drop by for a visit again, there's something I need to tell you Dwarf (???): Oh, if you look at that! These lads and lassies are all getting along now. Makes me jealous' eh? Wood Elf (Faeran): Why are you only asking them? @Human (Han) I was there too, just in case you forgot. Is this supposed to be some kind of get-together again?

"I'm really glad that we got out of that one—but really, Bleu?" The Tiefling known only to the closest of her friends as Tierra laughed aloud once they were out of the castle. "What did that King see in you? Your face is covered and you didn't even talk." The events that shook the King of Yegarian was something amusing to the Tiefling, that she didn't even mind that neither Lucia or Bleu were laughing themselves. "Well, at least someone else had a good laugh about it." Lucia eyed the Tiefling and…

This was how that particular day went for some of them. Han found himself sweating hard—not only just because the furnace was at an all-time hotness and he was sitting a little bit too close to the fire, this was one of those moments where everything could make or break it. Professor Owen Liddell had seized on the information like a mad detective—and while he may have not been the greatest detective who lost his parents at some random activity with his family—the man was dead set on getting the…
