to catch your music in the wind: genshin impact 𝐋𝐮𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐞'𝐬 𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐦

Arriving in Mondstadt

Lumine gaze at the vast peaceful land in front of her, gripping the handles of her guitar in pure ecstasy, taken aback at the scenery she was engulfed with. A country where the wind blessed her lonely soul. For sure, her music will dance through the wind in a flowing graceful motion, reaching corners and underneath every pebble or maybe in the deepest of the oceans if possible to penetrate.

In front of her was the sight of the Statue of the Seven surrounded by a still lake. The tranquility that utters just made Lumine feel a familiar sensation that she once knew. This must be the famous Starfell lake she heard about while meeting with various people in her travels, talking with her in a voracious attempt to capture her interest. Although a few had spite intention, Lumine had to, out of courtesy, battle her way out of it. Turns out they were disguised Treasure Hoarders looting for Moras on helpless travelers. Unluckily for them, Lumine was strong enough to handle the entire world, or perhaps just a small fry of Treasure Hoarders around 10 or 15.

Going back, it was a sight to behold as they claimed to be. The name itself was standing true to the rumors that once upon a time, a star fell from the sky and thus the name.

Approaching it, she breathed deeply, the air so calming yet pure. She checked the waters' temperature and sure enough, it was cold. She gritted her teeth and endured the waters, submerging herself then started to swim across. After that, she dried herself and approach it.

She bowed her head, praying for her missing dear brother to be reunited with her again, her traveling companion out of guitar and the voice she proudly has.

"Don't forget Paimon too!" And of course, her best buddy, an adorable floating fairy she found on the side. Lumine grimaced softly at the interruption that occurred.

"Well then Lumine! Let's get going! Grab your guitar and start playing that song! Look! The sunrise's here and-" Lowering Paimon's voice, Paimon said, "Those hilichurls are staring at us. Best to avoid them for now. You may have the strength but Paimon sees you're exhausted after that long journey. Let's pretend we didn't notice them. Surely those hilichurls won't touch us if we don't do anything with them."

Opening her eyes slowly, she followed Paimon's line of sight. True enough, there was a hilichurl looking at them intensely yet a curios glint was hidden behind that mask. She thought that playing the guitar wasn't going to help their situation so she carried it behind her back, dangling in the air. Lumine brushed off the accumulated dust in her skirt, reminding herself to change her clothes once they enter Mondstadt's main territory.

The guitar that aimlessly floats behind her, a thought pierced her mind, forcing her to reminisce of the time she received the guitar.

The only lead she has in finding her brother; her guitar. With this instrument, along with it was a note attached that says;

Dearest Lumine, I may not be there when you woke up, but venture the world and come find me. The world is a curious place for outlanders such as ourselves. I have imparted you with a guitar to accompany you. Take it as gift for waking up after years. You may use it as you please.

I'll be waiting...

-Aether.

"Thank you for looking out Paimon. I do think it's time for us to move on." Lumine said, erasing her thoughts filled with the note. Continuing her curiosity is not a wise decision for now. She swam the lake again, drying her clothes using her anemo powers. It was cold, the morning wind grazing her skin, added with the anemo touch that made the coldness even worse that she shivered and sneezed. The hilichurl was keen in looking at them but gradually lost interest and retreated in their gibberish hilichurl language.
