***

In the language of travelers, time is kept in seasonal blooms and the comings and goings of migratory animals. A child of nowhere, raised on a mountain where no one had any use for months and years, Cangse Sanren is fluent in this tongue.

Born and raised in Lotus Pier, Wei Changze only knows how to count in calendar days.

But as he sits with her under falling peach blossoms and tenderly traces the gentle curve of her rounded belly, he thinks the baby will be born along with the chrysanthemums and realizes he is, after all, starting to learn.
