Lumine and Aether... The Twins from another world, traveling throughout the Universe. They went from Universe to other Universe... until an Unknown God blocked their path and captured Aether. And The Unknown God sealed Lumine's Power and leaving her...
(3RD POV) [Musashi and the gang manage to buy Everlasting Incense from Bubu Pharmacy (albeit at a ridiculous price). With that, the preparations for the Rite of Parting were almost complete. And, Zhongli treated Lumine, Musashi and Paimon for a dinner together at a restaurant called Third-Round Knockout.]

Zhongli: "Third-Round Knockout" is not for lightweights, like those taverns in Mondstadt. Here, the owner does not take such unorthodox orders as fruit juice." Lumine: "So, does this mean I can order wine this time?" Zhongli: "I ordered some wine-fermented sweet rice balls for you, if that counts."
[Musashi just giggled nervously. But, even so, she was quite happy to be treated by her own teacher.] Musashi: "Hehe~ I guess I should have expected this..." Zhongli: "Well, since i know one of you can't stand to drink even smell the strong wine, I decides not to order the wine."
[Zhongli, followed by Lumine and Paimon looked at Musashi. Musashi just smiled a bit when she saw her teacher and her two friends stare at her.] Musashi: "Uh... Hehe~" Paimon: "Wait! You can't stand drinking wine, Slime's Lover!?" Musashi: "Well, it's not that I can't drink wine... But, I prefer to take care of my health." Lumine: "Oh my... I thought you were a strong drinker, Musashi."
[Lumine and Paimon, even Zhongli chuckled at Musashi who blushed a little. On the other hand, Makoto, who was still in spirit mode, smiled because she already knew Musashi's lie.] Makoto: "Hehe~ You don't drink to stay healthy... Or you don't drink because you're afraid of what will happen next when you get drunk?" Musashi: (S-Shut Up, Makoto!)
[Musashi remembered once upon a time when she was in Shimosa with Fujimaru. She drank wine until she was drunk, and it was very troublesome for Fujimaru and the others. From then on, she chose not to drink wine or sake too much.] Musashi: "A-Ahaha~" Lumine: "If it's for health reasons... I guess that's fine too." Musashi: "T-Thanks a lot, Lumine." ????: "...If it's to your liking, dear customers, I shall continue the tale of Lady Ningguang's Jade Chamber!"
[There's a storyteller at Third-Round Knockout. His name is Iron Tongue Tian.] Paimon: "Hey, there's even a storyteller here! Great atmosphere!" Zhongli: "Besides the fine wine, the excellent ambiance is the reason why this place is so well loved. But, when I say ambiance, I refer to a different sort from the one the Teyvat Travel Guide uses to judge other establishments." Musashi: "So... besides selling food, this place also sells entertainment in the form of stories." Lumine: "You could say it's good for business."
[All three of them just nod in agreement. Iron Tongue Tian stands on the stage. He seems ready to tell the tale of Ningguang's Jade Chamber.] Iron Tongue Tian: "As you all know, high above the land of Liyue lies a pavilion in the clouds, a palace in the mist... What does it mean to have all-seeing eyes? This, my friends: Lady Ningguang's masterwork that bridges earth and sky. Imagine. The weather is clear, and you gaze down from the deck on the world below... Behold! The glorious sights of Liyue Harbor, stretching out far and wide!"
