sixofswords Katthekit Hello! Sorry for the confusion, hope you guys don't mind a ping here! ๐ธ๐ฆ
Qinghua originate from the world of Shengxiao (as fauna there), but currently the Shengxiao world is still under closed-beta so it's technically not open to public yet.
When Shengxiao species is officially launched it'll be open to anyone to join even if they don't have a Shengxiao, and Qinghua will be officially sent invitations as characters into the world.
As of now if you'd still like to join during closed-beta though, the steps are in the OP on this thread!ย
But it's not compulsory to follow the Qinghua lore etc. just pinging here to update on the Qinghua-Shengxiao status. Sorry for the confusion / mixup if any! Feel free to ask if there's any queriesโจ
