877 useless preparation

In Chu Country, among a stretch of mountains and forests, on a narrow path, one man followed another, taking steps forward as if without a clear direction.

"The experiments you're conducting here make me very uneasy. No one can control the seasons, nor can anyone truly make the mountains listen to them," the man walking behind advised the man in front.

The man speaking wore a special kind of clothing, a wide robe adorned with all sorts of silver ornaments that seemed a bit too intricate.

His clothes were colorful and paired with the somewhat worn silver ornaments, giving off an indescribably complex feeling. Dense tattoos could be seen on the man's neck, making his skin appear somewhat darkened.

What was most interesting was that one of the man's eyes was green. It was a prosthetic eye, crafted from a gemstone like jade.
