Opening 6
.
Three days have passed since the battle against Beisht, as hype surrounding the upcoming Lantern Rite continues to grow.
As for Lucius, he has been spending his days helping with Xiangling at Wanmin Restaurant, while also hanging out more with Ganyu and Keqing, as he grows closer with the two.
As for today, Lucius intends to do some commissions for the Adventurers' Guild, hoping to use these commissions as training to help him hone his elemental powers.
Lucius: ("Being able to access all three elements has definitely helped me improve. However, I still can't use two elements at once, which would definitely help. But I can worry about that later, right now, I just need to learn to fight effectively while switching elements, and rely on elemental reactions.")
???: Can't you send someone any sooner? The clock is ticking and I need this resolved ASAP!
A voice shouts out, causing him to look up and see a woman yelling at Katheryne.
Katheryne: I'm sorry, but we don't have any adventurers available at this instant...
Lucius: Uh, what happened?
Lucius asks as he stops in front of Katheryne.
Katheryne: Ah, Lucius, your timing is most optimal. Allow me to introduce Yunning, manager of the Yun-Han Opera Troupe. She has commissioned the Guild to—
Yunning: Lucius? Ah, Yun Jin is always talking about you. Please, you've gotta help us find her!
Lucius: Yun Jin is missing?
Yunning: Yep, she's gone and disappeared. Now, of all times, just days away from the big performance. All she left was this short note...
She hands Lucius a note as he reads it.

To Whomsoever Finds This Letter:
After some discussion about the "Divine Maiden" play with my friends, I find that there is still much to learn indeed. I have gone to Lingju Pass in hopes of gaining some inspiration.I will return within the day, so do not worry.

Yunning: If our audience doesn't get to see Yun Jin on stage, they'll start tearing the place down... I mean, what am I supposed to do, huh?
Lucius: She literally said she would come back though.
Katheryne: That's what I said, too, but—
Yunning: Look, when you're a megastar like Yun Jin, you gotta start taking things a little more seriously. Saying she'll be back doesn't give me a whole lot of reassurance when she's showing no regard for her own safety. Why does she have to go and practice somewhere so dangerous? What if something happens to her? What am I going to tell the audience!?
Lucius: I'm pretty sure her life is not at risk here. Plus she has a Vision to help protect herself.
Lucius reasons, still unconvinced by her worries.
Yunning: Well then... what if she gets into a scrape and hurts herself? If she gets so much as a scratch, it'll be a loss to the whole nation!
Katheryne: (sigh) As you can see, Lucius, this is what we're up against. Would you be willing to accept this commission?
