When the crown falls, making a hasty escape is better than being crushed by the rubble.

The world is vast, and its bounties are many!

This vast world holds countless secrets. Come, let's see what fate has in store for you!

Eclipsites? How vile.

I have a friend that revels fishing alone in the cold, flowing river with a straw cape and a bamboo hat, often poised like a crane.

A Yang Rat and a Yin Rat—two peas in a pod. Perhaps you think I'm divining, but in fact, this should be understood to be an insult.

The sugar figurines my father made were really the best. Crystal clear, smooth, and ingeniously shaped.

Tsk... Starlings can't be mute, yet when they talk to much, ugh.

This Colossus is a rare object indeed. You could sell it for a fortune!

All this gossiping... It's worse than those two birds!

Would you like your fortune read? I'd never put off a request from you. Just find me a seat first, would you? My predictions are always more accurate when I'm sitting down.

Where fortune lies, so too does misfortune.

An auspicious victory!

All is one.

One is all.

Let us read your fortune.

Are we all on the same side?

I'm nothing more than an onlooker, observing all the world in my sight.

All the world's a stage, millions of people, millions of roles.

Fate is often set in stone, but within the hands of people lies choice.

Divination requires only one to precisely determine the emotions, status, and intentions of those who approach them. That alone makes up half of fortune-telling.

Refunds are guaranteed if my divination is not accurate.

Alchemy Stars.

May your years be blessed and littered with moments of joy.

My method of fortune-telling was created by none other than myself. I call it Heavenly Hexagram Divination. It requires the use of 25 sticks: 12 represent "yin," 12 represent "yang," and the last one represents both. By placing them in this cylinder and then casting them out, I can predict all manner of things to come.

- Dates birthed from ancient trees are ever so delicious. - One often wonders, how many seeds would a gold bar buy? - Wow, Squawk and Jabber, you two think you're so subtle, don't you? Don't even ask, I'm broke. If you're hungry, go outside and help yourselves to grass.

Would you like to hear an incredible tale? Ahem. The Dragon King's fifth son, the one they call "Suan Ni," was known to be a serene fellow. But one day, he got into a squabble with the imperial court's highest-ranking ministers in public, and even got violent!

Being a worthwhile spectator is no easy feat. Simply watching matters unfold is so dissatisfying, while involving oneself in them makes it difficult to break away. It can be likened to crossing a river on a bridge made from a single plank of wood.

"The Third Richest Man"? "Master of Sticks"? "The Wise Pauper"? Yes, I've heard of these people, but I can't say I know them too well!

My divination has never concerned itself with destiny, but rather the affairs of mortal people. Destiny dictates things like life and death; divining the intricacies of daily life, however, is much more entertaining.

I've never been more destitute in my entire life! Just look at me! Clothes riddled with holes, shoes without soles... even my hat has been pecked to pieces by these birds! Surely you have some coins to spare?

Oh my... Your hexagram is quite odd; I see the cat, an animal oft found in the space between yin and yang, yet not in the zodiac. You, Caelestite, are neither yin nor yang, your future obscured by the fog of your choices. Er, hearing the rest will cost extra, by the way.

The Dragon King had nine sons, each of whom differed greatly from one another. Who's to say who was genuine and who was a fraud? In the end, everyone is one part fraud and one part genuine.

In the service of lords, one must make time for leisure. But if the lord you serve is yourself, then you have all the time in the world.

There's an old saying that goes, "One knows not the length of a journey until one walks it; one knows not thyself, until hardship forces you make choices."

You wish to know from whence she came? From the celestial spirits' abode amongst the clouds came she, cloaked in the morning mist, a flickering silhouette.

May your years be blessed and littered with moments of joy.

Ouch! I'd say hello, but all that gargling with sugar water has given me a toothache...

"Get up!" Stop shouting! It's too early, I'm still asleep...

The night is dry, don't let the candle sparks fly. Shut the door, shut the window, for only outside will the wind blow.

Do good during the day, and at night will fortune come your way.

May your years be blessed and littered with moments of joy.

I am Li Tianxian, ask me about the world, ask me about your life. Ask me about court gossip, ask me about your neighbors. My divination shows me all.

No good deed goes unrewarded...

I'm almost embarrassed to take it!

What a thoughtful gift. Thank you!

This is worth its weight in gold!

Behold the enigmas of the infinite universe!

Behold the sticks, take hold of destiny.

Divine.

Once, there came a maiden from the clouds, who gave me the "Scroll of Divine Ascension." Was it an auspicious gift from the heavens, or an elaborate forgery meant to fool me? Or was it just an ornate roll of toilet paper?

They say starlings are as eloquent as they are tenacious. Never underestimate the birds you see around me—they know more than you think.

- "He's a liar, sometimes he disguises himself as an old man." - "Sometimes he disguises himself as a woman." - Hmph! Stupid birds, quit gossiping about me! I am who I am and I'm not ashamed of it!

I shall lead the way.
