Instant Comments:
1a: "feel your insignificance"
1a: 5 thousand years
1a: amazing this girl [Lin] knows how to read for a girl from a poor village (they exit hell)
1a: oh no, she's in league with the Dragon King
1b: resumed at 45 min mark, Lin finishes her conversation with the Dragon King
1b: wow, that riddle/challenge was good. in some sense though it was as much a challenge to Lin; as perhaps Buddha would have from the beginning known more or suspected more... as I imagine his ability to observe and understand is vast
1b: 500 years later, Journey to the West [apparently this is the title of the book, og Chinese, where in the monkey King is one of three characters to accompany a monk; according to Wikipedia the west refers to Central Asia and India]

Credits:
1b: color palettes accompany drawings of characters
