You and Scaramouche were the same.

The both of you were casted away by your creator. While he felt betrayed by his mother, you felt unneeded by your father.

Just like Azdaha, you were born from all the condensed energy throughout the Archon War. The emotion that swirled violently throughout Liyue had created a sentient wisp that know nothing of the world, like a newborn baby.

Morax heard a wail of a child in the middle of the night one day. It came from the direction of the forest. Without hesitation, he followed the sound.

At first, he cannot find the owner of the little cry, until he saw a dim light coming from a stump of a tree. The little smoke just floating about and the cries continued.

He stretched his arm towards the smoke, and it shone brighter as it flew towards him. Then, he put his arms around as if he was holding a child, and indeed he was.

A little girl of around nine years old was seen cradled in Morax's arms. The tears was seen at the end of the reddish eyes, her chin trembles and little mouth pouted.

Such a young child, Morax decided to bring you home with him.

You grew up with the Yakshas that were busy fighting in the Archon War. Even you began to wield spear one day after being taught by the Master of Martial Art himself.

A child born from mixture of emotion, mostly agony of the battle scars, you learned about human emotion better than the Yakshas.

One day, Morax told you to join the war, fight with one of the God in fact. You were scared and only wanted to be by Morax side.

"You're born from the war. I'm sure you knew of the agony of the battle much better than the Yakshas."

That was the reason you wanted to run away. The pain was excruciating. You did not know how to face them. However, the gaze from Morax made you fear to stay close to him. His golden eyes that expressed omnipotent, you felt like he wanted you to get out of his sight.

In the end, you went into the battle. You fought blood, sweat and tears just so your strength finally recognized by him.

To your dismay, you were defeated. It seemed the God you were told to dispose of was far more greater than you.

It as if Morax sent you to kill you off.

You barely escaped the God, letting your teleportation took you anywhere, far from Liyue, where the place that only gave you pain.

As you were dying, you were found on a land of Inazuma half-dead. It was in a dark cavern that you did not recognize and knew where you were. However, you thought you had not much time left.

When you shut your eyes, you did not know then you would be sealed in a long time. The dirt and roots built up over you over the centuries, until you awake again.

When you opened your eyes, someone was staring back at you. A pair of purple eyes, he was examining you, the rumored lady that was buried to the cavern.

"W-What.. ?" He breathed out, horrified by the dead that opened their eyes again.

"...-sty..."

"W-What ?"

"Thirsty..." you said weakly, and that when Scaramouche realized you were truly alive. Using his electro power, he struck the dirt and roots on you and after a couple of times, you finally loosened from it.
