A man steps back into the room after seeing his beloved off and finds everything exactly as she left it: incense still warm, book face-down mid-page, a single embroidered slipper by the bed. He does not dare close the book or extinguish the incense — because the moment he does, the room will know she is gone, and then so will he.

Lead instrument: xiao (洞簫).

An original 古風 song for day twenty-five — mid-autumn harvest at golden hour, ten thousand acres of rice stalks bowing heavy with grain, a farmer's hands full of earthen warmth, pipa plucking the rhythm of the harvest, erhu underneath carrying quiet pride. In the bridge: generations bending to this same soil — bone and soul in the earth alike. Geese cross the amber sky southward. The field does not watch them go. Literary Chinese. Theme: nature & seasons (round 6). Lead instrument: pipa.
