[What a loaded question. He stares at it for several moments before summoning
a response.]

Aside from dealing with some very rude spirits or perhaps a very rude orb, I'm alright, Zewu-jun. I'll definitely be glad to see the end of this mission though. How are you?

[calmness]

You have made contact with the orb?

Aside from having dealt with ghosts and tricks of the mind, I am also alright. [ this isn't about him though. ]

Have you spent much time with Wangji? It seems I am not the only one teaching him about new technologies and what our missions entail since we have been here. [ he worries, perhaps needlessly, that the shock of being in this place has veiled the years of night hunting under a fog. ]

Not directly, but I'm sure it's behind these hauntings. They aren't normal ghosts, I'm sure you can feel it too. [Or maybe not, he supposes his cultivation does give him an edge here.

As for the rest of that message...

There's a too long pause before he finally responds] We've spent some time together.

[And he braces himself to accept whatever Zewu-jun's response is to that.]

[calmness]

I had been hoping we had made more progress and were closer to leaving.

He is not from the same time as me. [ 'there is much he does not know.'

and perhaps that's not the warning he had given not once but twice, no, but a piece of information he can share. wei wuxian knows more about what the future holds for lan xichen than his own brother. ] I do not intend to caution you as I did before.

[He doesn't even respond to the first part again and a long enough time passes that it almost seems he isn't going to say anything at all, and then—]

it isn't like before Zewu-jun. I don't know what to say to him.

[singlelogbridge]

I'm sorry. I shouldn't be saying this to you. You'd think I'd be better by now at living with the consequences of my actions.
