I don't own the media !

Pdv Y/n :

<<Oh, but... Wouldn't you be Kusanali? I asked, looking intently at the little girl standing before me.

-Y/n, is-it really you? Uh, sorry... I mean, yes that's my name, sorry for the long delay, I got lost on the way while following a butterfly... she apologised a bit ashamed.

-It's nothing, as long as you arrive one day, we could have waited a little longer! I laughed at the girl's discomfited face.

-Hmm, if you say so... What did you want to ask me, because I suspect that you didn't come here to talk about the good old days... she asked, almost whispering the second part of her sentence.

Talk about the good old days? What did she mean by that?
Hm, maybe I just misheard...

-Yes, that's right. I came to ask you for political asylum for me and Scaramouche, while we find a way to solve a... problem, between the fatuis and us. I explained, shivering slightly, probably because of the hot wind that was unusual for the Snezhnayan that I was.

She seemed to be thinking and, telling me to follow her with a glance, headed towards the forest whose luxuriant vegetation formed a thick coat of green that prevented the sun's rays from passing. Here and there, a few vague little points of light illuminated the ground, revealing a thin path through the undergrowth.

This was where Kusanali was going, walking with a confident step towards this dark path. I started to follow her, Scaramouche at my heels. He had one hand on his sword, ready to draw it in case of ambush, and was watching every movement around him carefully.

-Scara', there's no need to be so suspicious... Even if you don't trust her, I doubt we'll get into a fight if we disagree. I whispered, slowing down so that I was next to him.

He didn't answer and grumbled, dropping his sword, then I started to walk a little faster to catch up with the white-haired girl who was speeding through the dark woods.
We all began to run, Kusanali for some reason, me to keep up with her and Scaramouche probably to keep an eye on the Archon.

We came to a large plain of green grass, where flowers of all kinds adorned the ground and gave a touch of bright colours, making the setting almost fairy-like.

-Woah, it's so beautiful... I said, taking in the view.

-Hm, it's true that it's a change from the landscapes of Inazuma and Snezhnaya.

-Isn't it? I particularly like this place, in all of Sumeru it's the one that has the most charm in my eyes! To talk, it will be nicer here than elsewhere! I'm listening, tell me the whole story. she said as she sat down in the fresh grass, a soft smile stretching her lips.

So I began to tell the whole story, how I had decided to flee Snezhnaya to find Scaramouche, how I had almost been executed by Dottore and Pierro, how the violet had saved me and healed me, our route to Sumeru, passing over the somewhat... embarrassing events, and then waited for her answer.

-Y/n, Scaramouche, you have both committed serious acts in other regions. But that does not concern Sumeru, you will be as free here as if you were innocent in the other regions. I welcome you to Sumeru, may you have a pleasant time in these lands! Kusanali announced as he stood up, still smiling.

-Really, you accept us? What a relief! I sighed, happy to see that luck had not deserted us along the way.

Scaramouche said nothing, true to form in his grumpy old bear attitude, but still seemed relieved to hear the Dendro Archon's answer.

The little girl started to walk away and from her steps to a still unknown place, small flowers sprang up from the ground, forming a small trail of daisies.

-Follow these flowers and you will find a place where you can sleep, eat and spend the rest of your stay without problems. I'm leaving, take care of yourself and... I hope you'll come back to see me one day so we can talk about the past... the little girl breathed as she disappeared into the vegetation.

I remained silent, trying to understand what she had just said. She seemed to know me and, for some reason, liked me a lot. Maybe cryo and dendro archons got along well?

When my mission is complete, I'll come back to Sumeru and ask her about all this.

-Don't just stand there, you'll get roots. the young man grumbled as he walked along the flower path.

-You could wait for me! I grumbled as I caught up with him.

Always a kind word...
Kindness is really temporary with him. What a grumpy old man!

Well, I would never say that out loud... I don't really want to end up as a Y/n roast, cooked with eclairs for long hours...

We had been walking for several minutes already, following the daisies that littered the ground, Scaramouche in the lead and me a little behind, observing with round eyes all the different species of plants and animals that surrounded us. This must have annoyed him, because he slowed down and abruptly took my hand with a sigh, turning his face so that I couldn't see him, then quickened his pace.

Pdv Scaramouche :

It might sound childish, even totally childish on my part, but I wanted some of her attention.

Since earlier, she and I had hardly spoken to each other and, even if I understood that it could fascinate her, she seemed more interested in the surrounding plants than in me.

I'm still better than those damn dandelions!

Kh, since when her look is so dear to me... Well, I haven't done much to talk to her since we left the inn. But what am I supposed to say ?! Just thinking about what happened makes me feel embarrassed again.
Oh, well, that's not my problem, I mean, it is... but it's not.

I looked back a little, she was still contemplating a plant she obviously didn't know. Annoyed to see her trailing away from me, I slowed down and took her hand, not without blushing a little, then turned my head, embarrassed by my gesture.

I preferred to walk like this, even if it seemed like a childish whim.

A few minutes later we finally reached the end of the daisy path. The little flowers, which were already becoming a little scarcer, stopped abruptly in front of the place that Kusanali had vaguely mentioned.

<<So this is where we are going to spend our stay? I began.

-But this is...>>
