This evening we are going to go to Lyue. I'm happy and sad at the same time.. I love Inazuma so much..
I was on my way to tell my "friends" that I'll be away for a while.. till someone gently grabbed me by the shoulder.

"So.. you are (name).. the girl even the balladeer him self as took an interest in.." the woman spoke.
I turned in her direction. She was just.. beautiful.
Long pink hair and penetrant purple eyes. Her vision looked like an earring. She also smelt good.

"May I ask who you are..?" I asked.
"Oh my.. I forgot to introduce myself. Well, you may already know me by my name.. I'm Yae Miko." She said with a smile.

Oh shit.

"Then.. do you need anything..?" I asked again
"You really don't seem to trust me at all huh? No worries, I'm not here to cause trouble to you because of your relationship with the Balladeer. I'm just curious about how.. someone like you, could end up catching the interest of a guy such as him.." she said
"Are you trying to say I'm not enough for him?" I asked getting kinda annoyed

"No no! You got the wrong idea sorry.. it's just.. I would have never expected him to fall in love" she said smirking
"..what?"

"(Name)!" Aether called from afar and as Yae Miko noticed she walked away
"I guess we will continue this interesting conversation at the Shrine.. come meet me there at 4:00 pm" she said waving at me.

"Um hi aether!" I said turning around to face him
"Why were you talking to Yae Miko?" Paimon asked

"Oh.. nothing that important. She just said that since I'm friends with you, she would like to know me better and asked me to meet this afternoon that's all" I explained
"Oh I see!" She said with a warm smile

"Oh and are Thoma and Ayaka already at the tea house? I have to make an announcement" I said
"Yea they are! Come" he said

We got there and I said my brother asked me to go a week with him to Lyue Harbour and bla bla bla..
"Aww noooo don't gooo Paimon is going to miss you!" Paimon said holding my hand
"I'll be away just for a week I'll be back" I said with a warm smile
" just say have fun" Ayaka said as I hugged her.

"When you'll come back, we will lay the hot pot game again!" Thoma said
"Oh my god please no" I said as we all laughed.

We talked about how to proceed with our plan and the Vision hunt decree but then it was time for me to go.
I went away. My stomach hurt a bit, that feeling that you have when leaving someone you know you are going to miss, but I just shrugged it off and headed to the shrine.

"I see you're here! I've been waiting for you!" Yae Miko said as she made me sit down at a table with a cup of tea
"Hi.." I said slightly embarrassed. Even I, felt weird with someone being so nice when we just met 2 hours ago.

"Where are you from? From your appearance I can say you are not from around here for sure" she said
"I came from Sneshnaya, but I consider Lyue my home actually" I explained
"Oh I see.. and how come you met the Balladeer?"

What the fuck do I say now

"Oh and I'm well aware of his backstory, what he does and all so I guess you can say everything, my mouth will be shut." She said
At that I just said the truth, just removing some details
"I see" she replied

"But.. why do you care so much..?" I asked
"Well, it should be right to tell you after all, I'm the Shogun's relative, and as you are for sure aware of, the Ballader is one of the Shogun's creations"
"but going back to you.. you must be really special if he asked me for help to get your vision back.. I assume he's in love" she said smirking as I turned red as a tomato
"And from your reaction, I assume that you like him too, am I right?" she said smirking as I nodded in defeat

"We didn't spend much time together.. but I still care about him. I'm happy he finally found someone who truly loves him.."
I just smiled looking down

"I have one more question, even if it may sound kind of inappropriate" she said
"Go on"
"Were you born with that yellow eye?" She asked
I just gave a short summary of what happened and she seemed pretty surprised
"That's really.. interesting" she said
We continued talking but then I had to go

"When you'll come back in Inazuma, inform me on how your love story proceeds." She said at the end

I got to the mansion and took my bags as Scaramouche sat on the couch waiting
"You have to write down all the infos you have about Aether, this is not my business anymore. Signora will handle everything from now on. I got what I was searching for" he said
"What were you searching for?" I asked
"One day I'll tell you"
"Ugh fine" I answered as we headed to the harbour of Rito.

"Did I do a good job till now?" I asked
"Yes, you could say that" he answered
"Does this mean I won?" I asked smirking
"It depends on how the other harbingers will consider your informations" he said

I have to write the best document I can, I have to win, and make my fantasy come true
