North of Divine Foot City, Emperor's Temple.
Because Emperor Jishui had been kind to the Earth Giant Clan, they built a temple to offer incense in gratitude.
The Emperor accepted the temple but refused the incense.
She was not interested in incense but rather preferred donations, though the daily worship was too noisy, hence unnecessary.
Eventually, the small temple was repurposed as her temporary laboratory, rendering the area forbidden to the Earth Giant Clan.
She did not like others disturbing her work.
Except for a certain butterfly, which was her only exception.
"But, what happened afterward…" A voice, almost like a narration, suddenly echoed, mysteriously.
"But that butterfly eventually left her, leaving behind only a tale, passed down by word of mouth, and ultimately the tale, along with the world, sank into the deep sea, with no one knowing how many times the bell rang that night in the Emperor's Temple…"
