Bi-Ying: Chapter 2, Done!

Yep, I've finished Chapter 2 of Bi-Ying. Here's a summary of what happened since I last posted.
Bi-Ying fell asleep in a cave, only to have an odd dream. He meets a Man. The Man says He knows Bi-Ying, and everything about him, past, present, and future. Bi-Ying wakes up with a jolt, and almost crashes into an old man.
The man says he to do a ritual to keep a Beast at bay. This confuses Bi-Ying, for the Milians weren't really known to do rituals. The man invites Bi-Ying to join him, not knowing who Bi-Ying was. Oh yeah, I've mentioned his name by now. Bi-Ying follows the man into the cave. (The man is named Cihori, and, unknown to Bi-Ying at the moment, he is the Secori of Mili).
Bi-Ying hears the Legend of the Beast. To put simply, this Beast was raised by a human, but after the human died, the others repelled him. The Beast now hates humanity, and had to be sealed. If released, the Beast would destroy the world.
We also "see" the Golden Avenger. She is the Strongest Fighter in the world, and was required to be at the ritual. Even as powerful as Bi-Ying was at the moment, he isn't even close to the Golden Avenger's level. He also starts, without knowing it, starts getting "feelings" for her. We also get a glimpse of two larger-than-normal bees, whom one might be getting a bigger part then planned.
But something happens at the end. Things go dark, and Bi-Ying loses his breath. After an odd breathing experience, Bi-Ying names one of the bees "Bibblie," and passes out. That's where it leaves off.
We learn a few things about this world:
1: There was a time before this. This time is called "The Time Before," and no-one knows what happened. That time-length is our own, though no one knows what happened to end it (or a real good idea what happened in it.)
2:This world has magic. No one knows why, when, or how. It has some users, but it sometimes acts on its own.
We also learn something about Bi-Ying. He loves checking out the remains of the Cities of the Time Before, often called the Ruins. He loves reading old books and checking and collecting stuff from the Ruins.
I'm also changing his age. He keeps acting like someone younger than 21, so it's dropping. He's probably going to be 16. In fact, let's just say that, and if it changes, I'll try to remember to mention it.
