If only Eternity could be that easy, my love: Teyvat & The Nine Realms:

"When seasons changed like the turning of tides"

<Art is not mine. I don't know who's but not mine, I'll say when it is one of my peaces>
<The battle is short, I'm trying to get it yo the interesting part>

:Ei / Raiden Shogun Perspective:

The sound of a cutting edge blade wrang out with the far too familiar slashing sound from the air swiftly being cut by the long sword. My instinct is to retaliate, yet I dodge the next attack from the powerful intruder. It was pitch black as the ethereal cloak of darkness spread far and wide of the sky of Tyvat.

Only the moonlight shone my path. Myself and the intruder were at the gates of Inazuma city, their forces threaten to harm the inhabitants of Inazuma. My technique was rather sloppy within this fight, I am normally on point with my battle stance and my attack manoeuvres.

We were both getting tired of this fight dragging on for- I... I can't even remember how long this fight has been pursuing for. It does not concern me in the slightest. My duties are to protect, after all. My eyes catch the reinforcements of the enemy in the distance. This is a new variant of the enemies Inazuma has defeated and have yet to win.

I hear a scream from the city of Inazuma, I swiftly turned my gaze back to the enemy and the gates of the city. I bite my lower lip. I clenched my free hand into a strong fist. I made my choice to hold back the line from the gates.

I hurried back to the city. The lanterns were all lit, the sakura trees have yet to bloom. People were beginning to panic. I suddenly see the archer force then set their arrows a blaze. My eyes grew Sharp and narrow. They're too early to shed their arrows yet. "Hold Fire! Until My Command!" I project my voice loudly. They all drew back their bow strings.

One soldier or general commander now caught up to me. Her face changed within seconds. "RAIDEN!! Behind You!!!" Kujou sara screamed in my direction. I didn't even have the time to blink. A monster like creature held me down, digging it's sword like claws into my back even further.

Before everyone else reacted I rolled the creature off of me. It whines as I impaled the beast with my Polearn. I dug it deeper into it's chest. I twist the hilt of the Polearn, killing the beast off "are you alright? Shogun" Sara again spoke.

"What in Tyvat? How could the Shogun not see that? Or reacted quick enough?" I said as Ei. Sara just stared at me. "Oh, it's Ei at the moment" I spoke again to her. With a warming smile to the girl I found years ago and raised into a warrior, yet the Kujou clan they - I realise that my eyes glisten with the ghost of my past.

The general nodded. Remembering what Raiden told her before. I let the Shogun take back control. I walk from line to line of the soldiers in front of me, I stop at Kujou Sara. "Alright, stand your possessions! Then Fire! Fire with everything you've have! Use... Use your Visions!" I shout loudly to be heard.

It was a long fight to strive and prevail.

Their leader did not stop, I was almost defeated. Once I leaned that the Fatui have built a god of some sort. Along with the Abyss. I now fear for my people's lives, as I am now walking back to my home after driving them away. I was easy on them first I then unleashed lightning upon their frail bodies.

I'm covered in blood. I walk through the city, the people shout at me. With regards the vision hunt decree. I continued on with out a care that the people of Inazuma city are now attempting to come at me, as they still disapprove of my decisions; they will find arguing to no avail.

That false God managed to stab me in the side, I felt sick and the throbing pain, that came with such injury. My muscles all ache and I grone from my lack of Streangth. My eyes start to close ever so slightly. Threatening to black me out.

Passing the village of my people, My eyes glance to the left of me, a house with it's lanterns being relit. I saw a family, a woman cradling her babe, in a calming manner to ease her young child from fright and distress, her other children all peering out at the world as they were close to their mother's legs, almost seeking comfort and protection from the woman who gave life to them. Their father just now picking up the two children, hushing them down from what appears to them as scarey intruders.

The same mother and father both look in my direction, as if I were a threat. I would never do such a thing to a family who have done nothing but care for one another. I see what Ei was thinking, she was lonely.

I managed to travel painstakingly back to my house, at the peak of Inazuma city. "Shogun! My, you're bleeding!" One gaurd shouts from my inconvenience of appearance. I waved them off as more of my blood spilt accross the floor. I sighed and carried on.

The air of my home as I entered was warm and calming until I was surrounded by medics. I told them all to leave me be, but they gave me a bandage to slow down my blood flow. I thanked them. Coming to my room where I will now have to spend more time than I wished in.

I lay my exhausted body down on my bed, thinking about that family I saw, I knew Ei misses her sister very much. I just had no idea what that extended to.

Ei herself now is making her appearance, I sighed and let her.

:Ei:

I to, my mind wonders back to the thoughts of a family, what would it be like to have a family again? To have my sister- Makoto here? I sighed again, I wish I could be rid of this feeling that eats away at me.

I have reached Eternity, yet I still feel the heavy and empty feeling, of loneliness.

I thought I found Eternity, I found it, yet it did not feel the same way as I imagined it to be, in my wild dreams of achieving my Life goal. But- my heart still sinks to the pit within me, I thought deeply to myself as the feeling of my soul being eaten by sadness and the lonely halls of my home that were once filled with joy.

The memory of my fallen sister- the constant reminder that I will out live every other life form here- in Inizuma, I can never become attached to anyone- yet I feel the desire to suddenly want to care or have someone to keep my cold nights warm my ice and stone heart. My heart aches, I- feel something that I have never felt before, I was jealous of the family I saw in the village at the foot of the city.
But why am I?

I tossed my body on my side facing the window that overlooks a beautiful garden, that I carved myself. Yet there will 𝑁𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟 another person of their own mind to keep me close and loved. No one who can live as long as I can...

Why? Why now do I long for something or someone?!

I'll never know.

I slip my kimono from my body, letting it pool on the floor. I lay my footwear next to my bed for the next day to come.
Letting myself rest for the foreseeable night and possibly day.

I liey awake, in thought of who to end my loneliness. That stumps me unfortunately, due to my long life expectancy of being a god. I let myself finally rest from such an event.

I think of my sister, as she used to hold me in her embrace while I slept, her warming arms, her soothing in sync breath, her presence was enough for me. Yet she loved me so to take it further to comfort me;

That thought, those memories are one thing I can go to sleep with now; it's the only thing that can do so.

I drift in my thoughts as sleep swept my into my slumber.

<Don't think this is a shit book, just a rusty start the next chapter that is when it gets to the real meaning of this fanfiction!>
