A gender-neutral Y/N works for Dr Baizhu at Bubu Pharmacy alongside the young Zombie girl Qiqi but what confuses Y/N is that they have no memory of their time before working at the Pharmacy.
And Liyue commerce is already quite competitive, but what...
Y/N: "Hmmm, seems there aren't any more slimes around here anymore... maybe I should have gone a little slower?"
I had only been out here for a couple of hours this morning, but I was back at the same place that Keqing had recommended to me before, back when the two of us first truly met- as she saved me from the three large slimes that had seemed to be too much for me to handle! But nowadays, those large slimes don't really phase me that much more than the little ones do.
Although, as proud as I am with my progress fighting slimes, they are just that: slimes. I've yet to try and fight something else, like Whopperflowers, Hilichurls or those massive Ruin Guards...
In truth, I am not much better at fighting as the common Millelith- despite my having a Vision and an ancient relic as my weapon... but I suppose I have had less than 24 hours total of training and experience. Hopefully in time I will be strong enough to protect what I care about... but there's a potentially active threat that just killed a God... how do I compete with that?

I wasn't just out here for combat practise though, I noticed that we were running low on Qingxin flowers again- and they only grow on the tallest peaks out here in the wilderness. So I made sure to take my notes with me as to where I had noticed some young flowers were sprouting that should now be ready for collection.
And as I wandered the wilderness, looking for slimes to practise my combat talents on, I also made sure to visit the locations I had marked and collect any Qingxin that was of adequate size whilst leaving enough to allow continued growth- something I learnt from Qiqi back when the two of us would go out on these herb collecting errands together.
At this point, I had wandered quite far from my initial slime-infested stomping grounds, I was actually very close to... I think they call it the Stone Gate, right? It's the main route that traders use to go between Mondstadt and Liyue.
I don't think I've ever been to Mondstadt before... have I? Damnable memory loss!
. . .
Maybe I should see if I can get some holiday time from the Pharmacy and maybe I could visit Mondstadt for a while, and see if anything there spurs my memory at all?
Hmmm... I don't think there'd be any Qingxin around here at all, its way too low over here, there are no peaks at all! A good amount of Jueyun Chilis though! Shame that we don't really need them though, we hardly go through the small amount of them that we do keep in stock!
I can't see or hear any slimes around here either... I guess I should just head back now and drop off the Qingxin that I managed to get and then maybe I could ask around back at the Harbour for tips to get stronger? ... I do remember Keqing mentioned some things: Leylines and Domains I think? Not that I know what either of those things really are- I remember hearing them mentioned before though, maybe in some of the books I've read or just idle chatter as I walked through town?
Wait... what's that weird plant-thing over there?
