One afternoon, fierce winds carrying fallen leaves howled past the outside of the house, causing the studio's window to be pushed open with a loud clap.
Mu Ying had just completed the final stirring step of the magic potion and looked up towards the window.
Not long ago, the sky had been clear, but now it had turned dark without her noticing.
"Boom!" Lightning tore through the dark clouds, and the thunder was deafening.
"Ding-a-ling~"
The Dingling Flowers on the shelf chimed, it was Lily.
"Yingying, it's time, come to the seaside!" Lily's excited shouting came through.
Mu Ying understood what she meant; with the strong winds, it was the time when the ocean tides were most fierce, making it the easiest to sense the Tidal Power — the perfect moment for a first attempt at Tide Meditation.
