After attending the solemn funeral commemorating those who passed on from Diluc's hands, Gorm begins his day off from work. He tries to distract himself from thoughts of Diluc, especially with his newly found, outrageous crush on him.

Gorm decides to spend his day high up on the mountainous terrains of Liyue -- a place he hadn't visited in a while. Gorm looks at his map and taps the mountain labelled 'Mt Aozang'. He heard an Adepti named "Cloud Retainer" resided in this certain hidey hole, just like a naked mole-rat.

The Hydro Abyss Mage sizzles his hands together and giggles.

Gorm tirelessly teleports up the mountain, only to become breathless when he reaches the peak. Two Eye of the Storms greet him as he passes by.

The vast, glistening emerald lake and flora mesmerized the Hydro Abyss Mage. Gorm can't help but make little "oooo" sounds.

As he scans the view from a bush, a figure catches his eye. A man, dressed in a dull, dark brown and black coat, was sitting at the stylish tea table under the tree.

Is that "Cloud Retainer"? Gorm wonders to himself

Is that "Cloud Retainer"? Gorm wonders to himself. He feels his heart beating faster, and sweat building up in his little palms. Do Adepti mind the presence of Abyss Mages? Should he go up and greet Cloud Retainer? It is only polite to do so, since Gorm was occupying their land for a bit.

Gorm takes in a deep breath.

Alright, here goes nothing.
