CHPT. 01 The Lost Archon

" 覚えていますか？"

━━━━━━━━━━

"Do you have any idea as to why Lisa called for us?" The blonde traveller from another world asked the Archon who walked beside him. The days of Monstadt has been nothing but peaceful ever since Stormterror's reign but Aether has yet to solve his predicament in Liyue.

Lisa, the electrifying Librarian had requested for certain people to gather in the library. Her reasons were unknown, but she strongly pushed them, especially Venti to attend the meeting. It was an odd occurance as the Librarian often only settled on affairs regarding her books.

"I have no clue." Venti shrugged, he was a bit worried on what the librarian had wanted from him. It was a bit unsettling when she practically ordered them to drag Venti into the Favonius library.

"You didn't loose a book, did you?" Aether showed his scepticism, narrowing his eyes at the offended bard. He may be a god but Lisa was a terrifying person when it came to books. Venti immediately shook his head, incredulous of the outrageous suggestion.

"Oh great! Everyone's here."

Entering the library, Venti and Aether were greeted by the sight of: Jean, and Amber, along with Lisa who held a very curious expression. In her hand was a black bound book, with silver writings on the cover.

"Lisa, why did you ask for Venti to come? I mean no offense, but he's not part of the knights." Amber said flashing an apologetic look to the Bard. Venti understood well, he was no knight of Ordo Favonius, just a mere bard.

"With his knowledge of folktale, it is required he is here."

Curious of Lisa's words, Venti tilted his head to the side. "Is that so? What has our dear librarian needed from this humble bard?"

Lisa smiled curiously. She held the book with trembling hands of excitement, showing the title of very book to her companions. They were confused, but Venti had his eyes wide and shocked of what the book was suspected to be about.

"The legend of the God of Chaos."

"God of Chaos?" Amber asked in uncertainty. She wasn't all to welcoming of a god who causes destruction and calamity.

"This book contains stories and information of the God of Chaos. A diety who once was the eighth Archon." They were shocked of the revelation, as Lisa meticulous flipped the book to a certain page.

"It says here: God of Chaos, Astaroth. The archon of Darkness. The eldest of the eight Archons, and has rarely ever given mortals a vision. Those weilding his vision have powers over shadows, and become stronger during the night.

Astaroth was a good friend of Barbatos and Morax, as he himself had won the Archon wars. Granted the seat of Eighth, he did not take over a nation. That is, until the happenings of Dragonspine, did he take his territory.

Long has the god of chaos been missing."

"Woah....the eighth Archon? There was an eighth in the seven?" Paimon asked, leaning in to read more of the book. In it showed the mark of Astaroth, representing his vision.
