For a manticore. Xie runs on the air, taking them higher to enjoy the fresh breeze. And the clouds. Everything is beautiful and radiant in the eyes of a scorpion. He has left his shadows and rocks behind - perhaps for good. Now he can proudly be himself and share this paradise with his A-Yi.

"I feel like I've never seen the sky before."
