I really liked this idea I had about Nie Huaisang running away after dage burns his things. Of course dage is worried sick and gots in search of him, which ends up preventing his death, because he goes to the Cloud Recesses and Lan Xichen hasn't seen Nie Huaisang but suggests they go down to Lotus Pier because Nie Huaisang abate wanted to go and invites himself to tag along in the search.
