The dark room brightened slightly when the sun hit. The warm light and the smell of sweet flowers and mint flowers made the atmosphere homely.
But [Name] think otherwise.
His stomach churns as he hides beneath the blanket, his hand covering his mouth to muffle sound and hugging the book in his chest.
His bed is right beside the wall where the window is, so that the sunlight won't hit him to avoid disturbance in his dream land. Unbelievable.
Well, guess what?
The same eye he encountered last time is still there.
Peeking through the curtain, the eye watched the bulge in the bed, not blinking.
It follows him around, but when he goes out for a walk or generally moves around outside, he can't see it anywhere, making him feel dreadful. The eye just appears if he is in the room that has windows and stays in a specific spot where the witch is. For him, this is the most disturbing phantom he has ever encountered. Normally he will ignore them, but this thing right here is making it hard for him to breathe. He searches every day for what kind of phantom is stalking him, but he still has no luck, and it makes him worry.
Because the books can't help him.
Other than his caretaker, they were the only people who knew about this phenomenon.
No one can help them.
No one can help him.
He reached out his hand. His hand came into view, the pupil turned into a slit, watching intently as the hand came out from under the blanket and grabbed the end of the curtain.
Closing the curtain, making sure any gap was sealed, he slipped out under his only barrier.
She could only sigh as she watched her son come down.
[Name] complexion is a mess, he doesn't need to put it in detail.
Dalia frowned across the room while putting the food on the table. In the past few months, her son has been getting jumpy and cautious. Narrowing her eyes, she couldn't help but worry about him. Last time she was working in her bakery, some of the regular customers took notice of the atmosphere around her son. She heard that he would flinch whenever something loud was nearby or stare blankly at the ground while doing his work or taking care of some of the children.Pulling herself together, a flash of thoughts came back. Taking a deep breath she smile to her son who is now sitting in the table, obediently waiting for her.
"[Name], I have some surprise for you." she beamed, trying to cheer him up just a little.
When there is a person is down, someone needs to be positive.
[Name] appreciates her and gives her a weak smile. his mama for being understanding, although he feels guilty that his troubles are affecting her. Feeling a light tap in his cheek, he looks at her.
Watching his eyes, she could see the hesitation. She reassured him, "Now, now child, when everything is done at the end of the day, meet me in our bakery." giving a smile, making him know that he was not troubling her.With that he straighten his back and nod toward her.

He ignores the eye in the window while organizing the paperwork, his back aching from sitting for so long.
Meeting the Seneschal up close is not a blessing. Sure, the characters in the game don't have much screen time, only dialogue, and some books can only give you a few details. A normal person will think it is a blessing because this character might be one of the key elements of the plot.
But a Father of the future grand master and the soon to be member of the church, [Name] is in tight position.
In the past few months, while avoiding (hiding) from other characters, [Name] didn't know that one of them was searching every nook and cranny of Mondstadt.
just to be. Ask that, is he alright?
The answer is obviously no.
The aftermath scenario is unexpected he can hear his breathing alone, hands trembling while writing he still remember the first encounter.
