A long time ago, humans and dragons lived together in peace, no war has been fought or blood has been spilled. A world full of wonders and magic, a world that is long since forgotten. Only the drawings and citys remained, the dragons have vanished and a diffrent type of human has arrived. The gods have changed and so has Teyvat, and so has time. A lot of things changed, even the behavior of gods and humans. The reason of this changes lie deep inside of Celestia, yet noone knows their secret, those that know it always vanish and everything they left behind will sink into the ground and stay hidden full of secrets and history. Some say that this land was once Khaenria but what existed before was a wonderfull magical place for gods and Humans for Dragons and other mythical creatures, it was a world of peace not war or hatred. Khaenria is a nation without a god, but this world I am talking about is long since forgotten. I am talking about the Ancient Celestia who was in direct contact with their creation, theaching them Magic, writing, singing and all other stuff. This celestia only remains as a drawing in the ancient ruins and citys below the surface. The Celestia that exist now wasn't always like that, they once were diffrent gods that ruled over Teyvat as a home and not a duty, they did not lend that responsebillity to other gods. The god of time once knew the truth but vanished like all the other gods, what this god created is now nothing more then a deserted island in the middle of the ocean. But a diffrent god who is sealed away knows it too, he knows more then any of these gods that vanished. Osial, The overlord of the Vortex, he has many secrets and is not known to Celestia. He is hidden in the deepest parts of the Ocean, he was one to witness the downfall of this Civilization. Because infact he is the only one who survived this event that happened thousend or even millions of years ago. Though it did not leave him unharmed, he got a gift from the Ancient Celestia wich are his God powers, but from the new Celestia he gained a curse, The hatred for humans and all living beings besides the gods They created. Osial was once one of the most powerfull Humans to exist back then, he was loyal and patient, he loved to teach Children magic and other fun activities. He had blue eyes in the color of the Ocean, and hair that was as soft as a plushies, His heart was filled with kindness and love, he would have never thought about hurting anyone, back then it wasn't unusal for smeone to have hair colour like blue,red or even green they were born with it they all looked beautiful in their own way. Osial himself is in a deep slumber and not conscious, the Osial everyone knows is not himself. Osial has great power and even with that he trys to use it for good and not bad.

Years have passed and the ancient storys are long since gone only the Archons who are still alive are present and know what happend once thousend years ago. The Archons live in peace with the humans and ancient gods, Azhdaha is unsealed and lives peacfully together with the humans. After the war against the Abyss, everything went back to normal, yet even the god of Contracts forgot about one god who was a friend of his back then. Osial is forgotten by all, time and living beings. Over the years even his God body got tired and wants to rest due to him feeling the familiar peace and quite, the hard and fun things in life, the sad and happy moments, everything he misses all of that. To feel alive again without this curse, that is what he really wants, he does not need a god form he wants to be free living in Celestia with his Family and his Friends. His soul is in pain and is full of sadness, it wants to be set free and move on but it can't. The seal is stopping him, the seal is keeping him awake even though he is tired, he does not want to fight he wants to be free. He tries to break free every day, every night but he doen't succeed. He calls for help but noone answers, he tries everything but he can't break through his own mind to do what he wants to. He needs help, he can't escape this suffering alone, not this time and not in the future. This is not his time, it never has been but yet he still exists even though he is supposed to be gone. It hurts him knowing noone can hear him and everyone forgot about him, even Celestia who once hated them so much that they tried to get rid of them all, but they spared him and left him to suffer. Both Celestias did that and he felt hopeless, he needs someone but noone is there.

One Day however the seal was lifted and was lighter then before, the curse he had, felt lighter and he manadged to take control of himself. He tried to break the seal but it didn't work. He called for help but it seemed like noone heard him, but one did. The seal was gone and he looked up and saw a young man who had the same eyes as Morax, Osial slowly swam up to the surface. The young Man looked sad and dissapointed, his eyes were watering up but he tried to hold it back. He asked Osial if he would like a hug , and Osial gladly apreciated it. The young man said with a breaking voice that he is sorry for forgetting him and not being able to hear his suffering after the war, Osial told him that it was alright and that it doesn't matter anymore, that eveything is now in peace. He was curios and asked who this young man was, he told Osial his name he goes by is Zhongli but his real name is Morax. Osial looked at him with a soft smile and whispered, that he missed him. Zhongli couldn't stay strong for long and broke down crying in guilt for not unsealing him when he needed him the most. Osial kneeled down and took Zhongli into his arms to comfort him, he knew how he felt and how much it hurt him that he forgot about his friend. He told zhongli that he is safe and that he won't leave him, not now and neither in the future. After some time he fell asleep and Osial decided to take him to their hiding spot wich he still remebered. He laid Zhongli down and decided to lie next to him, both were sleeping peacefully in a little cave that felt like a gate to another world. They both rested for a few days , of course Azhdaha noticed that Morax wasn't there anymore, he looked for him and after a few days found a cave, he saw Morax and a diffrent god sleeping peacfully. He decided to guard that cave for now until Morax would wake up.

When morax awoke he felt safe and wanted to look around but noticed that someone was next to him, it was Osial who was sleeping peacfully. It made Zhongli happy to see him at peace and relaxed, knowing he is in his own little realm. He decided to lay down again. Both slept for a few years and Azhdaha did not move away from that cave until Morax and Osial awoke. Osial seemed more alive then before and his body was relaxed, so was Zhongli. But even if that is so, Osials soul is still hurting and he feels like breaking down and just wanting to scream and curse the one who put this pain on him. But he knew that it was him alone that is responsible for that. His breath was unsteady but his body felt so light, everything around him was quite and blurry. He felt like he was at peace, he felt the curse lifting. He felt tired, really tired, his soul was not hurting that much anymore. He saw Morax, eyes filled with concern and worry. Osial told him ,,I'm sorry Morax for not being able to help you when you needed me the most, I am sorry for hurting this innocent people who suffered under my hatred and pain. I know I told you I will stay with you forever but, I have fighted and lived for far to long for someone who was once a human himself. So please, don't be upset I will always be with you inside of your heart, water always remembers and it doesn't forget. I will watch over you and make sure you will never experience this kind of sufferig ever again." Morax started to break down and held Osial tight. Osial hugged him back and smilled as he slowly turned into elemental particals that were spreaded around him. Morax didn't want to let go but knew he had to, it hurted him knowing that Osial was suffering so much his body wasn't able to take that pressure. But he decided to stay strong just for him, he decided to write everything down about him and Osial so he will never forget, he also described how he looked like in every detail so he would not forget what he looked like. He knows that even gods have to rest, so he let Osial rest in peace.
