I really like to sing, but I know nothing more than my 8th grade chorus class, and I wasn't really taught anything except singing from the diaphragm and to be careful with vowels. That was years ago, and since (and sort of before) then, I've tried to sing. However, I don't know how. I don't just mean I don't know how to sound good; I don't know how to use my air, voice, chords, body, etc. I experimented, but nothing sounds good. I'm also a bit confused with being in tune, but it seems as though although we can't hear our voices the way they actually are, we can still hear them in the same tune. (right?) But even then, what about my voice? I'd sing in tune, and my voice still sounds bad or boring. I do know that different voices give off different vibes; It can be heard with cover songs. But now I'm wondering

1. If a voice by itself doesn't even sound nice, is it even possible to sound good singing? (What even makes someone singing sound good? Some psychological effect that doesn't have to do with the voice itself?)

2. If it's just not possible for some people. Maybe because of some anatomy thing.

I know Sua isn't supposed to be - for lack of a better word - good. She has done many selfish things throughout the story. But I thought Vivimeng described her heart as pure. Where does that logic come from? Why do they say that?

Idk how else to phrase this question without giving away spoilers.

How do they keep Jun Wu and his powers sealed? People say that he chose that, but that doesn't sit right with me. Heaven is not going to just trust Bai Wuxiang not to break out.

I thought he had cursed shackles. Based on my memory, the book said that the cursed shackles are controlled by the strongest in Heaven. That was Jun Wu, but then it was Xie Lian. The theory that Xie Lian gave him cursed shackles to contain BWX and his powers makes sense. However, Xie Lian does not STAY the strongest in Heaven. He keeps having sex. That would mean that the shackles basically come off whenever Xie Lian has sex.
