ALT A drawing of Song Lan seconds from having his tongue removed by Xue Yang. He is looking dazed and upset, his eyes cast upward towards his tormentor. He is gripping onto Xue Yang's thigh and grabbing at his wrist to pry him off; Xue Yang is holding his face while angling his sword. Xue Yang's top half is also not in view. The scene is neon purple.

ALT A half-body drawing of Song Lan (as a fierce corpse) and Xue Yang. Song Lan has his arms around Xue Yang, and is guiding him into stabbing himself with his sword, Fuxue. The blade is concealed by their billowing sleeves, but slight flecks of blood denote that there has been contact. In their position, the sword would run them both through. Both their hair is down. Song Lan's expression is neutral, but Xue Yang is smiling with his eyes closed, although his brow is furrowed. There are slight wisps of mist or smoke around them.
