He waves his wand at the small pile of paper birds in front of him, which line up obediently along the desk edge and take turns to divebomb the makeshift target drawn on the back of his office door. “I was thinking,” he continues, leaning back in his chair. (If it’s a reference to Wen Ning, then - well, the poor boy tried his best. “That’s the one,” Wei Wuxian agrees, and if that’s a dig at the time he deliberately played out of tune and almost sent old Professor Lan beyond the veil to soothe the spirits of the dead in person, he stands by his choices. “The song that we learned at school for calming restless souls?” Nie Huaisang asks with three quarters of an appraising look, and then adds, “Those of us who weren’t tone-deaf, anyway.” Wei Wuxian drops the topic a second time.)

By today, I’ve re-read the ending 3 times and I think I’ve finally managed to connect A and B. When I first read this ending 13 months ago, I was very confused. Lots of care was put specially into the last part because the amount of information revealed is insane, and I want to present the flow of events in the most understandable way possible. After what feels like an eternity and a lot of dead brain cells, I’ve reached the end of my Daomu Biji Main Story English summaries.
