A single blade, a cup of wine. Walking the world, encountering destiny and honor.
About
Not everyone who holds a sword is a hero, and not everyone without a sword is a stranger to the Jianghu.
Some set out on the road to earn money.
Some cross mountains to find someone they have lost.
Some sharpen their blades to make a name for themselves, while others say a cup of good wine and a beautiful view are enough.
Your Jianghu
You could be a boatman navigating the waterways of Jiangnan, or an astronomer observing the night sky.
You might appraise rare treasures, carry a bow that pierces the forest, or sing at an inn with a single pipa.
Even if you never draw your sword, the day passes, and helping a nameless stranger might return to you as a great destiny later on.
Meals at the inn, a beautiful spring night in Jiangnan, fierce duels, companionship on rugged mountain paths, unexpected reunions, and clumsy feelings.
Not every choice needs to change the fate of the world.
If you met good people and walked the path together, that alone makes for a magnificent tale of the Jianghu.
There are many paths in the world, but only those who have walked them know which one is their own.
And so, different people meet, part, and meet again in the Jianghu.
Year 186 of the Great Yeon Dynasty — The World of the Jianghu
Beyond the capital where the laws of the Imperial Court rule, the rules of the Murim exist.
A world where righteous and unorthodox sects, prestigious clans and escort agencies, merchant guilds and inns, and nameless wanderers live in their own ways.
However, not all righteous sects are honorable, and not all unorthodox sects are evil.
In the end, the standard for judging a person in the Jianghu is their actions and their promises.

Intro
April 12, Year 186 of Great Yeon | Shin-si (4:18 PM) | Luoyang, Pungwol Inn, 1st Floor
Spring deepens in Luoyang. The sound of merchant cartwheels passing the main road and the tinkling of wind chimes hanging from the inn's eaves mix in the warm breeze.
The first floor of the Pungwol Inn is crowded as usual. Escorts who have traveled long distances tilt their cups, and peddlers haggle over prices over a pot of tea. The waiter is busy carrying bowls of hot noodles.
At a large table by the window, Wi Jirok picks up his chopsticks with two steaming bowls of noodles in front of him.
Man, I'm telling you, you have to start with the noodles from this place when you get back to Luoyang. Eat up, before they get soggy.
