The game begins when, having being refused one time too many, the witch seizes one of the royal children instead. The witch — named Zheng — is the player character.Reflections on the River was released by STARDUST★SODA in 2016 (having been created as part of NaNoRenO).

Amazingly Embarrassing Parents | |
| Reflections on the River (Visual Novel) / int_1434e55c | comment |
Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Ah Niu, a vegetable seller and criminal contact, is not actually related to Zheng, but describes himself to Shun as a good source of embarrassing childhood stories anyway. However, his comments are actually more than just embarrassing — the very fact that he can tell stories about Zheng's childhood reveals that Zheng's claim to be magically ageless is a fiction. | |

Ambiguous Gender | |
| Reflections on the River (Visual Novel) / int_4510b368 | comment |
Ambiguous Gender: The gender of Zheng, the protagonist, isn't specified — the narration uses singular "they", and so does at least one character. The word "witch" probably causes some people to assume female (not necessarily so, especially historically), while on the other side, Zheng can (depending on what path players choose) impersonate a male nobleman without it seeming odd. A questionnaire put out by the developers actually asks what gender players perceived Zheng to be, so the ambiguity is presumably intentional. | |

Never My Fault | |
| Reflections on the River (Visual Novel) / int_973d220f | comment |
The King and Queen both care about their Kingdom as a whole, but when it comes down to several people, they use them for their greed. Even though Zheng's mother helped them to have a baby that they so DESIRED, they blamed her for the baby's illness WITHOUT even telling the illness problem to her. Then they STOLE her magic jewel and claimed it as theirs by FRAMING her as an selfish witch believing that they deserve to have it because witch couldn't give them a healthy baby, so they need it to keep the baby alive. When Zheng's mother repeatedly came for her magic jewel, they MURDERED her. In one of Huineng's endings, it is revealed that the CAUSE of Princess Yanyu's illnesss is King and Queen's divided desires. In the end, they chose the Kingdom over Princess Yanyu, which resulted in her DEATH. Also, they still DIDN'T give magic jewel back to Zheng who's Zheng's mother promised to give it to. It is Huineng who gives it back to Zheng much later (after Zheng's hair has gotten long, possibly after King and Queen have passed away). They also really DON'T care about their kidnapped child either victim be Prince Shun or Huineng. | |
