Three Elements Sect, Outer Sect.
A clear mountain stream cascaded down the steep Cyan Cliff, its mist suffusing the air. The vapor reflected the high autumn sky and the verdant, ancient pines clinging to the cliff face.
Today, Cyan Cliff Bay was much livelier than usual.
At the Spiritual Chariot ferry landing in Cloud Bay, a crowd of elders and Outer Sect disciples in robes of various colors had gathered. They stood in small groups, some conversing in low tones, others gazing quietly into the distance, their eyes fixed on the vast sea of clouds at the landing.
Today was the day the new Outer Sect elder, who had just joined the sect, would officially take up his post at Cyan Cliff Hall.
