He's been dreaming of meeting Yao-Zui again, but he'll have to wait until he gets back to the present to do so. He tells us that he used to be just "yu yin" , but that's when he fell in love with his sister. Now, he says, he wants to be "yu yang" . He wants to know what's going on with his highness, and he asks if he knows who he really is. He says he doesn't, because when he knew him, he was "yu zui," but now that he knows him, "he's just yu yin." He tells his sister, "you're really wise and your highness," but then he asks, "what ami doing this for ?" , and she says, "the phantom butterfly poison / burnt windbreak / tower to ashes," and then he tells her, "i've even gotten you killed once," and he says he'd like to meet her again, if fate permits. He also tells her to let go of her obsession with him, and they'll meet again. He asks her to forgive him, but she says she wouldn't do it, because she's still comforting him. Ming-Ling says that he can't overlook the fact that they're the same soul
