On a hillside, the wind sweeps over grass and flags; in the distance, the mountain and water meet. On the table is sliced Yun Pian Gao, with a metal fork beside it like a signal, waiting for a response. The Page of Swords corresponds to the first movement of Air—the budding of thought, the formation of concepts, the starting point of exploration.

The layering and lightness of the cake correspond to the clarity of thought and a state without heavy burdens; its fragile and transparent texture reminds us that reason is still in the forming stage and needs to be reinforced by experience.

Hidden hostility, poor execution.
