"Xiao, I'll be fine. It's just Mondstadt." (Y/n) said, trying to assure her safety to her adeptus mentor. After three more months of training her vision, the young girl packed her things and decided that she would go to the city of freedom. The young girl also discard her inazuma clothing for a Liyue styled ones. A cloak that resembling the color of her vision and a (f/c) colored Liyue dress with long flowy sleeves. Her anemo vision, dangling from the side of her head, connected to a piece of cloth to keep her hair in place.

The former Inazuma noble thought that after learning combat, she should go to Mondstadt to thank the Anemo Archon properly after granting her a vision. Xiao however, seems to be more hesistant on allowing her to travel on her own.

It was not that the Yaksha saw her incapable of protecting herself, it was because of how naive she was. Just a week ago, Xiao had to save her from a few Treasure hoarders after they successfully fooled her to think that they were just adventurers who in need of a hand.

She was too kind and was about to follow them if it wasn't for the adeptus to suddently plunge from above, knocking all the hoarders in one attack. Xiao had to decipline the young girl about following complete strangers.

"Knowing you. You would have gone to the wrong direction." Xiao grunted, crossing his arms. "It is best if I see you off myself through the borders of Liyue and Mondstadt."

"Am I really that untrustworthy?" (Y/n) knows that Xiao couldn't leave Liyue due to his contract with the Geo Archon. She also know that Xiao wouldn't take no for an answer so she sighed and nodded. There's no point of arguing with him since Xiao is quite stubborn.

It didn't take long since Xiao teleported both of them to the border. As soon as they did, The Yaksha began pestering her of What and not to do while she's in Mondstadt.

"You mortals don't live long so remember, Don't trust strangers. Especially if they wore suspicious clothings." Xiao reminded. (Y/n) only nodded, a smile visible on her face as she watch the adeptus talk. Xiao may look like he doesn't care but he really do. Over the months she had spend with him, the Yaksha had warmed up to her. No one had anticipated that Xiao would be worrying over a mortal that he always said that he wouldn't want to be near with. Ver Goldet once had told her that Xiao was only a mother hen to her alone.

"How about, I buy you some souvenirs when I get back?" (Y/n) offered. "I heard Mondstadt's specialty are Dandelion wine. Should I buy you some?"

"I do not drink alcohol." Xiao told her. "I appreciate your concern but I don't need a souvenir."

The Yaksha's cheek was then tinted pink, looking away as he continues. "But I do want to see you come back, uninjured or hurt. You still need to be inshape to continue training."

(Y/n) grinned and nodded, before walking away. As she was getting further from Liyue, she look back to see Xiao still there, making sure she was alright. She waved him goodbye before disappearing from his view.

Now in the borders of Mondstadt, (Y/n) could see how beautiful the area was. Unlike Liyue, Mondstadt wasn't surrounded by mountains. Flowers grew and swayed as the wind pass by the plains. Pieces of Dandelion flew with the wind, making (Y/n) stop to feel the breeze.

The feeling of the wind through her skin, was quite refreshing yet it feels uneasy. (Y/n) opened her eyes and looked around. 'What was that?...'
