"Tell me..do you wish to burn so brightly that you'll put yourself out? Or do you wish for a savior with eyes pure as spring water to dull your blaze?"
Venti watched in awe as the cursed void on Y/n's arm shrinked until it was no longer there, as if the curse effected not just the body but the soul as well. A soul free of a curse is a body free of that curse, that is what it seemed to the archon.
"You go by Venti now right? Well what are you waiting for, the abyss probably sensed that i've switched with her so they'll either be at Mondstadt in moments or await my showing in Dragonspine" the anemo archon stood, his turquoise eyes glowed with authority "Geez..relax i told you..I'm not going to betray her, a deal is a deal after all".
"Then you will listen to me and Albedo just as she told you, right?" she rolled her eyes "Yeah i will, but you can't boss me around so easily, only out of respect for Radisana will i listen to a few of your orders." Venti followed the girl out of the room she's been resting in. Barbara was quick to protest but seeing the void on her arm was gone, she had nothing to protest about.
But her curiosity was piqued, were her eyes always that eerie pinkish color or was she only imagining? Anyway, as Y/n burst out from the cathedral the blinding sunlight made her cringe, but familiar voices and hasty footsteps made her turn to look to the source.
Albedo ran up the stairs with two familiar blonde's following him, When his eyes landed on Y/n he looked relieved for a moment until his eyes met hers. He stepped back a few steps and Dain and Lumine looked confused, Venti quickly followed out of the cathedral doors, Dain looked uninterested in his appearance.
"Don't panic Mr Alchemist! Y/n made a deal with Eris before hand, I'll explain to you when we're in a closed space" The archon put his hand on her shoulder, and she seemed to freeze under his touch. "Let's go to your place, we can discuss this there" Venti seemed to have a very powerful aura about him, because without this authority Eris could easily run rampant.
"How do i know you didn't do something" Albedo glared as the archon smiled "Why would i do something to a dear friend of mine? It wouldn't be in my best interest after all she's done for me since i became a god" the bard glanced as Dain as if hinting that the god he didn't know he had was right in front of him.
Albedo wasn't trusting of the archon mostly because of his origins, but if he had no other choice then he would oblige "Fine, Lumine i advise you and Dain scout out Dragonspine while Venti takes the time to explain what has happened.." Dain crossed his arms. "I assume this means she no longer requires the concoction i made".
Y/n nodded, "After five hundred years do you really think that plant would have the same properties it used to have?" he sighed. "I'm afraid not sir Dainsleif, now if you'll excuse me" she walked passed the male dressed in odd black clothes and down the stairs, not bothering to wait for Venti or Albedo since she already knew where to go.

"So..she's safe?" Eris nodded her head, "technically yes, the abyss can't control her when she isn't the one controlling this body" Albedo sighed "I have control only for today, in that time i need to force Aether to reverse the curse he put on her..if i don't then i can't garentee her safety. So..i don't need your help but if you want to, i guess you can come with me to Dragonspine"
Albedo's expression was droll, fearful perhaps even anxious "I am sorry for accusing you of something so savage.." Albedo curtly nodded his head to the bard. "No worries! You've been on edge lately because of Y/n and that's put your genius mind in a state of..erratic thought" the blond nodded. "And i know people from Khaenri'ah don't trust the archons for what they've done and all that boring history stuff..ugh"
"Anyway~ We should get to Dragonspine, times ticking and i have only today to finish this soo~" she stood up and tucked her hands behind her head. "I might just head there myself since i can fly, Venti could fly if he wanted but you little alchemist" he frowned, "I'll carry you if you'd like~" Venti chuckled and got up. "Since i'm not the only one keeping her in check, I'll head to Dragonspine and meet you there, If she starts acting out of line usually a dominating glare will calm her down.."
Venti waved as he opened the door, melancholy hidden in his green eyes "I'll see you there..!" the door closed with a thud. "You looked worried" Eris muttered and Albedo looked up with tired eyes, "This has caused you a stupid amount of stress, you must care more about her then your experiments" the blond sighed. "Of course i do..if i don't value what i currently have then i'll lose it all over again".
She chuckled, "Y'know if this was a different situation Mondstadt would be destroyed by now, one of us would be in the middle of the chaos but now I'm fighting to help her keep her sentience.." he stood up and peered down at her. "Why?" he inquired "Why? I uh..i guess since i found myself in her consciousness..I've had this sense of protection more then anything, i guess that's why i killed her mother and instantly returned control to her"
"That feeling is the same thing i feel around Klee, you feel like her older sister, yet events of the past paint you in a bad light correct?" Eris erupted in laughter. "Hahah! You get it huh? When i sniffed out Jauda's bad intentions i told her but she paid me no mind for she knew i was a liar then when i confronted him myself he choose to stop pretending..she received the short end of the stick because she thought it was my fault he was acting that way..she thought i placed a curse on him"
"But I'm here spouting problems that won't be fixed if we don't leave, c'mon mister alchemist, the day is wasting~!"
She hurried to the door and looked as he stared, His eyes held sympathy but uncertainty as well, it would make sense though. "You've protected her far longer then i have, i should give you my thanks when this is over" she nodded and opened the door "After you"
Tell me;
Would you kill to save a life?
