The world is in tatters, and Shen Ni patches it up.
Shen Ni is in tatters, and Nuwa patches it up.

"Just now, I acted too hastily and failed to hold back; now it can't be pieced back together." Nuwa sighed, a trace of compassion fleeting across her delicate face.
In her hands, she held a rag doll that looked suspiciously like Shen Ni.
The head of this doll seemed to have been flattened by an incredibly powerful force, a large hole torn at the brow, and the eyes were split, with clear tears trickling from the corners.
The entire doll's body was full of scars, missing arms and legs.
Its buttocks were also gone, probably torn away by some Innate Spirit Root during the recent chaos, now hanging on a withered tree.
Nuwa sustained the integrity of this broken doll with the power of Creation, preventing it from disintegrating into ash.
"I originally wanted to use Shen Ni's body, refine his Dao, and make it a 'Gui Ruins' representing the end for the new world."
"Gui Ruins?"
