Chapter 20: Windborne Bard {Part 2}

"Wait up!" Yelled lumine, catching up with the two as they continue their way back, nearing the bridge to the city gates.

"So are we just going to agree and possibly help him steal a priceless artifact?" Commented paimon.

"Well we can't be sure that he'll resort to stealing it right away." Said lumine. "We can convince the sisters in the cathedral to see eye-to-eye with us on his plan."

Then atheer spoke his turn "That's if they'll even allow us to speak with them. Any mentions of this holy lyre would startle them. At best they'll just stay silent."

"Or at worse, They would want us to be silent!" Shivered paimon, still remembering their encounter with rosaria last night, her silent glare, even just memories of it, invokes any evil and mischief to just erupt from a person with sheer fear.

"I was going to say tell Jean, but that works too."

"Guys, I'm not saying that I want to commit a crime, but if this is truely our chance to save dvalin? Well, should we be too quick to judge."

They bantered a bit on what course of action; lumine was a bit insisting of following Venti while paimon was all too frightful of the consequences whether it was plausible or mere paranoia. Atheer was conflicted on which side he should pick.

As they made to the entrance, their thoughts were silence, or rather cancelled out- A wave of excited people exited the city as they were just entering it; From the young to the oldest, they shall share a sense of excitement that threatened to push the trio out of the way.

But thankfully they made it out by moving out of the way.

"What is going on?! Is a parade happening!" Said paimon.

With a confused mind, atheer walked to a man in the crowd and asked. "Hello sir, mind you tell where you and all of mondstandt are going?"

"Why the beach you've created of course!" The man replied.

Atheer eyes widen a bit by what the man said. "Um, thanks?"

The wave continued on with noises a plenty, until they all crossed and the loudness of their chatter faded away slowly. Though the citizens went out, the guards however stayed loyal and stood firm in their post- no matter how much some of them admittedly wanted a break from it all.

The trio just stood there, in awkward silence. The streets being uncannily quiet with no residences to even man the stores, the bustling and busy air gone like a quick breeze that left them in the dust- the quietness only being cut by the rumble of paimon's stomach.

"Ah nuts! Paimon's hungry." She rubbed her grumbling stomach."

Atheer stood unmoving and stared at the ground, thinking deeply until a tumble weed dusted pass him and out of the gate.

"How the?!" He commented.

*Tap* *Tap*

The distinct sound of feet straddling closer that closer filled the vacant sounds of the city, they felt like they were louder for merely being the only audible thing around. They look to the source- blue hair and an all too familiar swagger and smirk.

"Oh, kaeya." Atheer was the first to greet his presence.

"Good morning my compadres." He greeted back. "I see that you three are quite perplex on something."

"We are, why did all the citizens suddenly exit out?" Asked lumine.

"With all the things happening lately, Jean figured to give the citizens a nice needed break." He leaned in and nudged atheer on his side like a friend's gesture of a job-well-done. "Made possible all by you, atheer." Patting him on the shoulder.
