Divine Universes | !Sandrone!

Part 13

Sandrone pov

Travelling around wasn't my thing, it just wasn't. And I hated doing it. I was exploring the border near Natlan, wanting to get more inspiration for my projects, but maybe I shouldn't have gone so far...

I usually stay at the The Zapolyarny Palace of Snezhnaya to do some research, but recently, I was running out of ideas for a next project or a prototype.

I didn't want to disappoint her majesty, the Tsaritsa, so I gathered my wits to go exploring in Natlan.

Maybe, I could build mechanics that were designed for heated battle, like super hot battles and not melt away.

Hmm.... That seemed so boring.

My mind was off, more like unfocused ever since Y/n left...

I had even prepared a small gift for them! But I never got to give it to them....

I sighed. Everything seems so hard now that I realize what was going on the world around me.

I was so intruiged by Y/n, that I didn't keep up with the details about the Traveler and this and that.

I nodded to the guards at the entrance of the gate that led into Natlan. In response, they bowed, showing their respect.(guys i have no idea what natlan looks, how they think about the fatui so this is all imagination, not real lore lol)

I decided I should look around, adapting to the natural surroundings of the place.

I heard some murmurs and whispers saying, "That's a Fatui Harbinger. I wonder what she's doing here. Also be careful! We all know they're dangerous"

I shook my head, trying to get rid of those voices that clouded my thoughts.

I quickly got out of the attention, not looking where I went.

The mechanic carrying me bumped into a royal guard that was running straight into our direction and we collided into each other.

"Ah! I'm so sorry! Oh! Are you the 7th Harbinger? Lady Murata has requested your presence immediatly at her palace! Don't worry, you're not in trouble" the guard says quickly, not giving me a second chance to think this over.

"Whoa whoa whoa, you say what now?" I say, trying to calm myself down.

Why did the Pyro Archon want to meet me?

That question sent shivers down my spine and I collected myself back together and followed the guard.

Once we reached the humongous door to the Archon's palace, I realized how easy it was to just, see the Pyro Archon.

This palace was right in the center of the city. I don't know of any archon who just resides in the city!(hey guys idk what to write so here ya go, some made up lore :D)

I bowed to the Pyro archon to show my respect and waited for her to speak.

"I know it is unreasonable for me to call you over here to my humble palace, but since a Fatui Harbinger has stepped on my lands, I request something in favour for everybody to stay safe" she says.

I narrow my eyes, knowing it was impolite but still did it.

"And may I ask what request you are making?" I ask.

"Information. I want to know what the Fatui is planning. I am not like the Dendro archon that has information about almost everything. I am the god of war. So tell me, what is the Fatui planning?" she asks, twirling her fingers around strands of hair.

"I take that in offense. Do you think I would tell you information about the Fatui that easily?" I say, trying not to disrespect her, but clearly I did.

"Last time I checked, you were not the person making orders or opinions. I cannot treat you as an equal since you are not a god" she snaps.

I bow my head, meaning that I was sorry.

"Now back to the matter. I'm sure you've heard of the person named Y/n?" she asks slyfully.

I stare at her in horror. What was she planning to do with Y/n?

"Once they reach Natlan, I'll make sure that they burn and never make it out alive from Natlan" she threatens.

I gaze at her in amazement and horror. Did she just say?....

I was stricken with shock and didn't speak up for a minute.

"Is your answer a yes or a no?" she questions, but it was much more like a demand.

Y/n pov

It was our 3rd day in Fontaine. The amount of mora I had brought with me wasn't enough for all the luxuries there.

It just amazed me! The clothings, accessories, food and more...

Aether promised to buy something for me as a souvenir and so we went, walking down the streets of Fontaine.

"Remember, we're going to go see Lyney's magic show soon so we'll have to hurry!" Paimon reminds us, really excited for it.

Of course! Not this again though...

I went to see it before but I was actually captured...

"That reminds me! I have a story to tell you guys!" I say excitedly.

Paimon looks at me, always interested when I have something to say.

"Yes?" Aether asks, wanting to here it too.

"So once, when I was still part of the Fatui, I went to Lyney's magic show once and I was given a VIP seat. Ya know what happened next?" I say, wanting to see if they could guess it.

"Whatttt?" Paimon asks.

And that's it for this chapter!
