//The traveller approaches a worried woman in Natlan city//

Woman: hmmm... I wonder what's taking him so long...

Paimon: hey, (insert name cuz I'm too lazy to come up with NPC names)! Is something wrong? You seem awfully tired and worried.

Woman: oh, traveller! I'm so glad to meet you!

Woman: My husband went out to get some materials from the deserts... but he's taking longer than expected...

Woman: can you go check on him please...?

1- "Sure"

2- "I guess I can..."

Woman: thank you very much!!

//The traveller walks through the hot lands of Natlan, Paimon flying closely behind//

Paimon: whew, it's so hot here! Paimon's so tired

"You're not even walking 😒 "

Paimon: hey! Flying takes a lot of energy too, you know?!

Paimon: huh?! I think that's (insert man's name)! And are those... hilichurls?!

Paimon: we need to help him!

//Insert very epic battle between traveller and the hilichurls in which traveller gets exhausted//

Paimon: oh no! There are too many of them!

Paimon: What do we do?!

?????: Stand back!

//A couple of weird-looking robots made of fire come out from behind the traveller, followed by a girl//

(Detailed appearance because I'm too lazy to draw her:-

-she has dark brown hair tied in a ponytail the same way as Diluc does in his skin

-her jacket is black with red ends and is similar looking to Kuki Shinobu's

-she wears leggings like xiao's

-her skin tone is the same as Alhaitham's

-she carries around a messenger bag

-her Pyro vision is clipped to her coat

-her hairband is a butterfly

-she has twinkling black eyes)

Paimon: Aurie!!

Aurie: hey guys! Sorry I'm late leave the rest to my inventions

//Insert the robots exploding and killing all the hilichurls easily//

Paimon: woah! I've never seen that before!

Aurie: my brother helped me with it this time

Aurie: oh, he'll be pleased when he hears the invention worked as intended

Aurie: *turning to the NPC* sir, are you alright?

Man: ah yes, thank you very much! How could I ever repay you...?

Aurie: just get back to your wife. She's worried sick.

Man: of course, of course, thank you again!!

//The man walks away//

Aurie: heh, he reminds me of someone who left me and is taking a long time to return.

Paimon: who is he?

Aurie: I think I told you about him before.

"Ace?"

Aurie: Yeah, the blacksmith's son, the one who went on an expedition to find.... 'better materials for weapons' or something

Aurie: He's actually the reason I came back to Natlan despite my plans to go to Sumeru with my adoptive brother

Paimon: Oh~~ Ace is back in Natlan?!?!

Aurie: I think so. At least, that's what the letter he sent me said

"But this path is not the way from Fontaine."

Aurie: oh, I took a detour because I could not see one of my client's mother in distress (A/N:- Aurie invents robots and other toys which she sells to children all across Teyvat to make a living)

Paimon: Can we tag along with you? Paimon also wants to meet Ace!!

Aurie: sure thing! Let's go!
