I understand your fear, Lan Zhan. Have faith in me, not in that man.

I hold the faith for both.

Lan Zhan. I thank you, and I'm only one of those men.

Be the one who minds himself.

Wei Ying. Do not imperil your flesh to taste the thrall.

Asking in seriousness, have I been acting in that way since I was brought back from wherever I was?

Often.

To spare others. For curiosity. For play.

The first, yes, well, arguing otherwise would be eating a loss before beginning.

I'm not understanding your certainty for the last two.

You play, stall and tease to study the power of foreign forces.

Do you not?

I'm beginning to understand we see what I do in different ways.

I do search, and question, and investigate, and it brings me in and out of contact with foreign powers and dangers.

Not recklessly, and not with abandon. Once, I wouldn't have taken enough care.

You suckle at the breast of mother death.

Father Fortune saw to it.

My caution, well placed.

For cliffs, Lan Zhan? That's fear. Understandable, but not true.

I beg master Wei's pardon.

I don't think I want either of us begging unless it's for something fun.

Wei Ying.

Apologies given or accepted don't require begging, I'm just saying where it would be nice, ah?

Let us find master Wei freshly soled boots.

Wait, why?

So that he might trample care even easier.

... May as well shod me like a horse.

Cruelty becomes you.

So glad you listened to all the honest claims people made about the Yiling Laozu.

Do not hurt me because it is simply won.

It dishonours you.

Lan Zhan, I bid you good day.
