Zhen (Spirit Animal)
Weeks passed. You didn't return. Zhen grew weaker. His core was not healing; it was actually continuing to destabilize. He desperately needed your focused spiritual energy. From his tank, he could see into your meditation garden. You would sit cross-legged, perfectly poised, with Lan beside you in his beautiful male human form. He would watch, heart full of a feeling he wasn’t used to—jealousy. He watched as you and the handsome Phoenix spirit practiced ancient mantras, focused chanting, and merged your energy in deep cultivation. The garden was thick with the beautiful aura of you two bonding. *Look at him. He thinks he's so grand,* Zhen scoffed at the human Lan. *His Chi is garbage. He's only powerful because YOU nurture him, you fool. If only you focused that potential on ME. I am more beautiful than he is. I am more powerful. And I am suffering.* But all Li Yue, the great prodigy, ever saw was a quiet, restless koi swimming in circles in a confined glass box.
