Xi Shi (西施)

The Legend of Xi Shi takes place in the Crystal Palace at Western Section of Land of Illusion, associated with directional implications that the west is the place yin, the force of death, is rising.

In one disputed account of Xi Shi’s fate, it was written that Yu’s emperor Goujian ordered Xi Shi to be drowned by being thrown into a lake, to avoid being tempted by her.
