where winds meet still has my full attention but I've started reading 不见上仙三百年/Three Hundred Years of Longing because a discord server I was in was discussing the ... questionable... translation choices in the 7S version.

(I'm reading the fantl instead)

Continuing the Chinese Lore Podcast, Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Read ahead a bit with the transcripts, because was curious about Zhuge Liang lol. For the podcast itself, Dong Zhuo was just killed -- I ended up really liking Diaochan and was surprised that she doesn't seem to have more scenes after this point.

Unfortunately very few women in RTK have any sort of extended presence. Especially the actually interesting ones.

Finished 朕与秦王扫六合 (King Qin and I Unified the Six Kingdoms), a self-cest fanfic featuring Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China, being paired up with his younger self from an alternate history universe. It's essentially a salvation story about saving yourself. I enjoyed it, and it got me interested in reading up on the real life history the story was inspired by.

I finally caught up on the three most recently translated chapters of Begging the Heavens in Vain!
