The Wind That Is You - Kaedehara Kazuha

liyue

As a wanderer, he doesn't have anywhere to go or anyone to comeback too. Kazuha is gentle and kind, though sometimes he can be a little bit strange and eerie. He has been in countless fight and battle after he run away from the electro archon, Baal. As he became wanted, there's no way for him to stay at Inazuma anymore.

The Crux, an armed fleet from Liyue, spends much of the year on the high seas, and its sailors are quite used to the vagaries of life in other nations. So they were more curious than surprised when an outlander began serving as a sailor on their flagship, the Alcor.

The sailor in question was picked up when the Alcor docked at the Inazuma port of Ritou. Beidou had made friends with this young man, and when he came on board, she told her crew, "This guy's gonna be staying with us for a while. Take care of him, now."

The sailors trusted Beidou's, judgment and admired the newcomer for his martial prowess, not to mention his ability to predict the weather, so they were happy to overlook his reticence to discuss his past, and welcomed him aboard.

Still, their curiosity did not abate, and they would often find all sorts of excuses to try and ply him for information about his experiences.

"I've heard that they make some sweet blades there in Inazuma and that the bigger the fish you are, the swankier the sword. So, uh... how's yours measure up?"

Kazuha would remain silent in the face of all such queries. Over time, after countless attempts to garner a response proved futile, the sailors would simply give up asking. Eventually, it was an off-the-cuff remark from Chief Mate, Juza, just a few days later that finally managed to elicit a reply.

"Hey, Inazuma boy. What are the lads supposed to call you if they don't even know your name?" The young sailor wiped the sweat from his brow with his callused hands.

"My name is Kaedehara Kazuha, a wandering samurai. I am in your debt for taking me in, so just call me 'Kazuha."

Kazuha is still contemplating on what he's going to do after this. He was indebted to Beidou for saving him. That's why he couldn't just leave without giving anything in return. However he don't have anything valuable. The vision circlet that he took from his friend after he lose has lost it's color as it part from its bearer. It's has became "colorless".

Even so, he can't just throw it away. He stare at the sea for awhile and feel the wind as it's getting heavier. He can forecast the weather which made him a great asset to the Alcor. Beidou seem satisfied.

"We are heading to Liyue." A familiar voice was heard from behind.

"Is it where you came from?"

"The way you speak has changed. I wonder what made you change fufufu. Anyways yes, that's where we all came from." Beidou smile and look at Kazuha. Though he still avoiding contact with people. He remain silent.
