Hou I trudged forward, each step echoing his resolve. His eyes were set on the summit, where he hoped the Queen-Mother would help reunite him with Tschang 0. The journey was treacherous, but his heart burned with a fierce determination that propelled him onward.

Hou I stood tall, drawing his bow with unwavering hands. The air crackled with tension as arrows and celestial swords clashed, each strike causing the mountain to tremble. The fierce battle raged on, echoing through the valleys below.
"I will not be stopped! Tschang 0 is waiting for me!"
Despite his wounds, Hou I's spirit remained unbroken. The celestial warriors, defeated, retreated to the skies. But his victory was bittersweet, each wound a reminder of the cost of his defiance.
Queen-Mother[/@ch_4_d]"You are brave, [@ch_1]Hou I, but you cannot defy the heavens. Tschang 0's fate is sealed."[/@ch_4_d]
Hou I fell to his knees, his heart heavy with longing. "Please... let me see her one last time." His voice carried the raw ache of his soul, a plea that hung in the air like a whispered prayer.
"I will grant you a single night on the moon," she declared, her voice gentle yet firm.
Hou I looked up, gratitude and sorrow mingling in his eyes. It was a bittersweet victory, yet it was more than he had dared to hope for.
Tschang 0 smiled softly, her presence as radiant as he remembered. "I've waited for you," she whispered, her voice a melody of warmth.
The night stretched on, a precious eternity where words were unnecessary. In that moment, Hou I knew that their love, though tested by fate, would endure beyond the stars.
