Origin Story
在古老的东方国度，有一个名叫星河的少年，他从小就对天上的星星充满了好奇。每当夜幕降临，他便仰望星空，数着那些闪烁的星辰。他发现，星星的位置并非一成不变，它们会随着时间的推移而缓慢地移动，有的星星会渐渐消失不见，有的星星则会悄然出现。星河长大后，他成了一位天文学家，他用毕生的精力研究着星星的运行规律。他明白，斗转星移不仅仅是星星位置的改变，更是时间流逝的象征。他将自己对星空的理解，写成了一部部著作，流传于世，启迪着后人对宇宙和时间的认知。
In an ancient oriental land lived a boy named Xinghe who, from childhood, was fascinated by the stars in the night sky. Every evening, he looked up to count the twinkling stars and he observed that the positions of these stars were not fixed; they slowly moved with the passage of time, some disappearing while new ones emerged. As Xinghe grew older, he became an astronomer, dedicating his life to studying the movements of these celestial bodies. He realised that the shift of stars, or 'dou zhuan xing yi', is not just a movement in positions but a symbol of the passage of time. He wrote his insights into books that would inspire many to understand the cosmos and the flow of time.
