New Yu Era 1326, the first day of March
Xingnan Prefectural City
The streets were thronging with people, obviously several times busier than usual. Although the majority still adhered to Yongzhou's favored black attire, about thirty percent of the crowd was clad in white, blue, red, and gold.
These individuals commonly bore arms and had an air different from ordinary people. Their gazes were more alert and sharp, clearly indicating that they were martial artists from outside the city. Without exception, whether alone or in small groups, all were heading towards the center of the city.

"Today is the first day of March, aren't you confused!"
"What about the first day of March? I just got back from Xiayuan Tao City, what's happened?"
