The boundless and cliff-less East Sea lay beneath a cloudless sky.
Upon the unruffled blue waves, a lady clad in a light pink skirt progressed, her bright eyes and white teeth sparkling, her neck graceful as a lotus rising out of the water, an unparalleled beauty. She was Red Silk, on a mission from Emperor Fuxi to collect the Innate Jianmu in the East Sea.
"How am I to find this Innate Jianmu in such vast southwestern waters of the East Sea?" Red Silk frowned slightly as her thoughts surged like tides while she soared above the East Sea.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a heaven-shaking boom erupted ahead; the sea boiled furiously, and a bluish-green, fish-tailed brute—ugly and a zhang tall—appeared with an entourage of Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals, blocking Red Silk's path.
"Lady, what business do you have within the bounds of our East Sea?" The brute leered at Red Silk's voluptuous figure, voicing loudly.
