True Archons-discontinued

Xiao-pt 1

Paimon:
now that venti is.....who will become the next archon?

Zhongli:
only time will tell,venti was a good friend,although reckless Im sure the others miss him as much as you do

Traveler:
"What about xiao?"

Paimon:
oh right,surely he's not taken this well

Zhongli:
I have been keeping a close eye on him,but ever since xiao has gone closer and closer to the stone gate

Paimon:
oh poor xiao,paimon is starting to get worried about him..

Traveler:
"Maybe we should check up on him"

Paimon:
my thoughts too!

Zhongli:
I won't stop you,just make sure to not stress him any further

Paimon:
we know what his past is like,me and traveler will make sure he doesn't slip back into that mindset

Zhongli:
knowing xiao has friends like you...I think he'll be just fine

You and paimon head to the stone gate,the air feeling more bitter and sorrowful then it ever has before

Paimon:
paimon's hair just stood up,we better hurry and make sure xiao is ok

Traveler
"How will we know who's the next archon?"

Paimon:
huh? Well...paimons never really thought about that until now.but right now our focus is making sure our friends are safe!

As you two get atop of the cliff you see a fimilar figure.xiao looking up over the horizon of mondstat,the wind almost carrying them over to him

Xiao:
traveler,I was expecting you to come by..

Traveler
"You were?"

Xiao:
you don't think I see morax looming over me these past few days?

Paimon:
xiao...

The yaksha rose to his feet and looked you directly in the eye,while not clearly visable he still had much grieving

Xiao:
I am fine,if you came here to help then there's no need

Paimon:
this is clearly an issue! We all know what happened venti was an accident,but we also know you beat yourself over these things! Don't you remember when we learned about the other Yaksha!?

Traveler:
"Paimon is right,we want to help"

Xiao:
...traveler you've been wandering all over tevyat haven't you? Surely you must of met the other archons in your travels

Paimon:
yeah,we've met quite a few haven't yet?

Xiao:
heh...well then how about we celebrate?

Paimon:
eh?

Traveler:
"What does that mean?"

For a second you couldn't seem to believe what you were seeing,xiao smiled with uncertainty but it felt comforting none the less.wind started swirling around you three,his hair and vision glowing

Paimon:
what the!? Traveler does this mean?

In a second the wind suddenly stops,with your attention now turned back to xiao,the biggest smile you've seen on his face

Xiao:
traveler I've heard stories of the archons meeting in liyue after the archon war,I think it'll be wonderful if we could all meet again...atleast in the honor of venti

Besides this,it seems the fatui were also planning something for the archon

Childe:
huh?

Arlecchino:
what is it?

Childe:
for a second...it looked like the anemo gnosis glowed
