3rd POV

Xiao awoke gasping for air, he was face to face with a girl who had long white hair with a green streak.

"Hello Adeptus Xiao," She spoke, her voice as soft and gentle as an angel. Xiao nodded, a bit confused. The girl noticed this and then continued, "You should go back and prevent the war."

Xiao took a moment to get his thoughts in order.

"How?" Xiao asked; sitting up, as if he forgot his previous dream.

"I've been trapped for nearly 500 years, and I know the story of the two of you. You must save Aether from death, he must continue his journey from all those years ago. Xiao, find Albedo, he has been working on a way to go back in time." The girl spoke as wisely as Xiao's father, though had a little childish wording.

"Where is he?" Xiao asked almost begging her to respond.

"DragonSpine, Paimon will take you to his camp. Albedo will know what to do, I'll see you there."

"How do I know if this is real?"

"That exorcist... Chongyun?" The girl looked up with her finger on her chin. "Yes him, he had a similar dream last night. When Aether passed, his other selves, Yang and Ying transferred into an item of Chongyuns. He was the best place to hide near due to Chongyuns positive energy. We need them and their energy to get the machine working. Ask Chongyun about it."

"Ying and Yang? Wait what do you mean??"














"XIAO!!"






















It all looks the same, though there is a feeling of sadness that lingers around here.

Klee, Diona, and the others have all grown up.

Venti, Ei, and the other archons... seem worried about something.

Everyone is all grown up.

~~~~~








What is this pull I feel,

Xiao... he looks so sad, he too has grown older. He's still wearing his ring.

























Xiao is resting with his head on a desk, "Aether" he mumbled. Xiao's ring glowed ever so lightly.

"ADEPTUS XIAO!"

Xiao shot himself up, "ugh." he said while pitching his eyes. Paimon slammed the door open as Chongyun came running in behind.

Chongyun could sense a spiritual disturbance.

"Come on now! It's time for the Lantern Rite!!!" Paimon yelled while flying out the door but was stopped by Chongyun.


Xiao leaned back and stretched, I haven't slept for years... And that dream... was it real?


Chongyun sensed something was off, "You awoke from that dream right?" Chongyun said watching Xiao.


Xiao was shocked, so it was real.


He stood up slowly and came face to face with Chongyun. "We need to find Albedo," They both said simultaneously.

"HUH?" Paimon said looking at both of them.
