Chapter 292: A Night of Firefly Dance, The Gentle Lament of Three Songstresses_3
```
"When I saw Yulanduoja with her green hair, I could hardly believe my eyes. She hadn't been on stage for many years. Do you know how I felt at that moment? I was so excited I couldn't speak. Back when I was in school, I loved listening to Yulanduoja's songs. My head was filled with all kinds of rebellious thoughts, even dreaming of venturing into dangerous star domains and navigating uninhabited voids in a starship with friends."
"Yulanduoja has changed a lot, no longer the wild and flamboyant presence of before. Now she is so gentle and mature. But, I happen to like this Yulanduoja too, just like a married woman—" Below the post, a bunch of echoes and laughter followed. While poking fun at him, others also expressed having the same thought.
The audacity of youth, and now the preference for stability—many middle-aged people seeing Yulanduoja have their old memories light up, with a surge of emotions. The familiar songs, the days that are no more, memories of youth, are always unforgettable.
"Who is that dancing elf girl? Am I the only one who wants to know? I really want to know her name and everything about her..."
"She is Brigitte, also a student at Yuanting Academy. However, Brigitte is quite special; she is a pure-blooded elf. Though she may seem young, she is actually older than many people here."
"The age of pure-blooded elves needs to be divided by three, right? That means she is about the same age as a 15-year-old human. She really is both cute and wonderful."
"Edith Academy really surprised us this year, especially those exchange students from the northern academies. I just found out today that there were such illustrious schools in the past Four-leaf Crystal."
"In four hundred years, everything has changed. I was thinking, while looking through those academy archives, what would the Winter Festival competition have been like four hundred years ago."
"Actually, there are records, stored in the data repository of the Star Domain's library, of Winter Festival competitions from hundreds of years ago. I just went to look at them yesterday. I must say, those 'witches' of the Triad Moon era were truly stunning and surprising."
"Even my dad, who has never cared about the Winter Festival competition, started asking me about Edith Academy. It seems like he only found out today that Tilan is a student at Edith Academy."
"The media from Central Star Domain have all reported on this farewell ceremony. It's probably quite rare to see the three songstresses performing together on stage."
"I wish I could watch last night's performance again. During that scene, I sat motionless in front of the screen, completely captivated from beginning to end, and even the mischievous dog at home didn't disturb me, lying there listening to the songs."
"Can animals really understand human songs? They probably don't get the lyrics, but the emotions in the melody should be somewhat universal, just like people from different languages feel similar when faced with a song."
"If only I could live in the fairy-tale world depicted by those songs."
"Me too." x many people
Another year is nearing its end, time is so beautiful and yet fleeting, only at the end do people startle into awareness.
With the new year slowly approaching, though it is but one month different from November, everything within the Four-leaf Crystal Star Domain seems to have changed, the discussions of the merits between Edith and Saint Yingo have dissipated, the battles between the two major factions are gradually losing attention, and issues of the past and future of the Four-leaf Crystal are increasingly brought up in society. When more and more people harbor these ideas, even the most conservative and stubborn members are forced to change their political views, starting to support and advocate for these things.
This is the tide of the era, the irresistible trend of things. When the wills of countless people unite, there's no need for more words; everything related is driven forward.
And if one traces the source of this tidal wave of an era, they would often find the shadow of the songstress. These songstresses, seemingly uninvolved in political issues, are often the first butterflies to stir up the storm.
The Federation is vast, but even across the star domains that span thousands of light years, it is the existence of these songstresses, and the common thread of emotion they create, that prevent the spirit and form from being divided.
Now, as the wills of the three songstresses of the Four-leaf Crystal Star Domain come together, all arguments are winding down. Whether it's Saint Yingo or Edith, or any other neutral factions, they will all move toward the future symphony composed jointly by the three songstresses.
The era has arrived, like the grinding wheel of bone, racing forward.
