As part of the ongoing process to add Quick Reference to our in-house translations, I’ve added the sections to Parts 1 through 3 of Laughing in the Wind’s Chapter 1:
Each Quick Reference section lists the characters, locations, factions, martial arts skills, items, and cultural concepts that appear in that part, with links to wiki articles where available. This feature helps you discover and understand the intricate world Jin Yong creates, from the Evil-Warding Swordplay to the Qingcheng School.
While I was at it, I also improved the translations in these parts as I read through them, fixing some grammatical errors and inconsistencies, and tightening terms to better adhere to WuxiaSociety’s style guide and conventions.
