    Default Why did Mei Fanggu leave Shi Potian?

    At the beginning of Ode to Gallantry, the child who would later be known as Shi Potian was separated from the woman whom he thought was his mother. Why did this separation happen?

    The best way to answer this would be to get understanding of the psycho-emotional make-up of Mei Fanggu, and her relationships with a woman known only as Mei-nüxia, Ding Busan, Shi Qing and Min Rou. Then, you'll start to get an idea as to why the separation happen.

    Alternatively, PM Kidd.

    Because I won't spoil OTG.

    He was at the market when the fight for the black metal token (xuan tie ling) broke out. Xie Yanke took him away to the Skyscraping Cliff when the token came into his (SPT) possession.

    CFT: thanks, but that doesn't explain [I]why[I] his "mother" separated from him. They lived in the mountains for many years, but one time she did not come back for several days, and when he went to look for her, he got lost, and that's how he ended up meeting Xie Yanke. But the question is why she left him.

    PJ: I see what you mean now. I can't remember if there was an explanation towards the end of the story.
