It was quiet, unlike most days.

The floor felt warm, despite the bright white powdery snow.

It was so normal, the cold. My home, always will be cold.

My love, if I don't make it home.

If I live here for the rest of my days.

I hope to one day see you again.

Your sly chuckles, they fill my heart with joy unseen.

My Tartaglia. My Childe. My Ajax.

If only I could see you now, I wonder if you're warm too.

The snow feels comfortable, like a patch of grass.

I can imagine you now, smiling right now. Everything gets warmer when I think of you. Your soft smile as you stare at me from across the table. Or the smile you give your brother s and sisters when they welcome you home.

You make me feel warm inside Ajax, if only I could see it. See your warm smile one more time.

The snowfall could never hender your beauty, "and your eyes shine brighter than Liyue Harbor."

Your soft gaze is keeping awake you know, every second I'm here.

I'm dedicated to you my love, and even time couldn't change that.

Ajax, when I feel your embrace, I could hold you forever.

I know we promised.

"I promise to die by your side."

What a promise I've broken. I guess my tongue grew cold.

Teucer would be disappointed I broke our promise.

I think this is the first time. The first time I've ever seen stars in Snezhnaya. The first time I've felt warm without you here. The first time I've felt so cold.

I can't keep our promise dear Ajax, but I want you to make a promise with me.

Just one last time.

Could you take your time?

Could you live on without me?

Take care of your siblings?

I will wait, I promise.

Ajax, could you be patient...just this once.

Could you continue to....

(Could you continue to smile.)
