    Summary

    TW: sexual abuse

    Many times Xie Lian had asked himself the same question: at what exact moment had he shattered beyond recall?

    Was it the day the wooden stake pierced his heart? No.

    Was it the darkness of the coffin, thick with his own clammy blood, that destroyed him? No, not that either.

    Or was it the first time he caught the Heavenly Emperor's hungry gaze resting on him?

    The first blow across his cheek for a wrong reply?

    Perhaps it was the day the Emperor's hands first ventured beneath his inner robes, and his vows were broken (ripped out, crushed, butchered, and flung into the mud)?

    But more often, Xie Lian blamed the day he gave up.

    Or: Jun Wu rescues Xie Lian from the coffin, only to imprison him in the Palace and hold him hostage. Eventually, Xie Lian escapes with the aid of an unknown ally and turns up in Ghost City, concealing his name and appearance.

    This fanfiction is meant to be an exploration of post-traumatic recovery. There will be a lot of pain, but also good things!
