a couple of things stand out on the update:
-Shouldn't our Mother of somehting pill prevent backlash too ? seems like we'll be missing a EPC roll.
-The Pale Book seem to have quite a lot of formations. Maybe we can trade it to the library for something else once the useful formations have been picked out
-The puzzle minor didn't get a roll, and failed automatically. Maybe we're missing some vital part to it ... FVM6 ?
[X] The little village, full of little people and shadows that would keep her safe.
Because minions!
Though honestly all four are interesting.

What about the desire to visit wherever you want whenever you want makes it seem disconnected?
Ahahhah... Those rolls...
Really like how it worked out narratively though.
Hmm, so choices:
- village is darkness/thief
- peak is moon/music
- forest is wood/support
- sky is wind/movement
Would be my guess in term of bonuses.
Thematically, as people noted, we're trying to move beyond survivalist mindsets and fear, so I'm not really in favor of village...

This and the forest seem like the options that are most towards the type of person Ling Qi wants to be (Freedom, and someone who wants to help and be there for her friends). Freedom seems more important to her right now, though?

I'm pretty sure this choice is also going to lead to, or give us the ability to walk a certain path in later cultivation, and when we reach/become a spirit (assuming this happens) what would we want?
Ling Qi really doesn't want to leave her friends behind, but from what we understand Spirits are lonely existences. What if we instead became a Spirit OF companionship? Some of the others will probably have better immediate bonuses, but the only other choice I imagine an immortal Spirit Ling Qi would be ahppy with is the Free Air one, and then not as much as actually being able to keep her friends.

It's the wind blowing in and out of everywhere, untied to the weight of obligation or earth.
None of the choices are a single thing.
Wooops. I'll do an EPC roll in the next one

What supports that notion? Keeping in mind that the Sky option is not just wind, per WoG

Yeeeeesssssss!
I mean, I have no idea how it'll be handled in this system, but I love Domain-type xianxia abilities.

Mechanically the wind choice is probably best, but in terms of spiritual experiences and emotional connections it's music by a mile (tutoring, mom's flute, mom, Zeqing).
Also, no ??? bonus this time, unless I missed it.

I think the reason why the Puzzlebox didn't get much progress is because it was tied with another minor. yrsillar did mention that tying two minors to a single major would result in less time devoted to both.

I'd argue that all of those are things she does.
Wind is the thing she is. The desire for freedom reflects in each and everyone of her actions.
Wind is "d) All of the above".
Freedom is a paradox. The more people you are attached to, the more restrictions you have on your actions to maintain those attachments, but those attachments can also give you power, freeing you to do things you couldn't have before.
Ling Qi seeks freedom through strength, rather than freedom through a lack of attachments. It's a bit Sith-y, but it works.

Hmm, maybe heaven/wind/thunder because they all fall under heaven. Note though she wants to be "unfettered", in her previous breakthrough she noted that her friends and obligations where roots and chains binding her down. If you want to be not bound by anything then you have to discard everything also.
Fuck no it isn't, and do not go trying to lie about it to get votes.

Ling Qi is a greedy girl. I believe she would want it all. She's been working hard and starving for freedom since she was small, and I believe she should keep striving for it. It's admirable.
