(Let's go back to our favorite bard's POV shall we~?)

Venti's POV:

I don't know when I remembered but...

*Flashback

I was just walking around mondstadt a long time ago, (I think this happened over 1,800 years ago? (Can someone tell me when Vanessa ended the tyranny(?) of the Lawrence clan)) when my head started to hurt I tried to ignore the pain but it just keeps getting more and more painful

"Hey, you okay?" I turned around to look at a concerned Vanessa

"Yeah... just fine" she didn't believe what I said

"You know you could just take a rest if that will stop the pain, you helped mondstadt a lot today" she asked me smiling, and I know that was not a friendly smile, so I just complied with it and went to the knights of favonius headquarters

Vanessa's POV:

I watch him go to the knights of favonius headquarters, as I thought about something

'... Why did this person tell me to not trust anything he says'

*Flashback

"Welcome to Celestia" I looked up to see this person smirking at me

"Well would you look at that so this is the person she trusts" I felt uncomfortable hearing this person say that

"*Scoff I'm getting bored so let's just get this over with"

(Time skip)

The thing... whatever they were to me was finally done

'Looks like I can go home'

Just as I was about to leave they told me

"Just a reminder don't trust anything the anemo archon says from now on" this person said giggling

I bit my lips to not swear at them and just nodded

*End of flashback

I shoke my head to not remember that

"Lady Vanessa! We need a little help"

"Huh? Coming!"

Maybe that's for another day

Back to Venti's POV

Ughh my head is killing me, I lay down on my bed trying to think of a way to stop it

'... Ah maybe sleeping will help'

I close(d) my eyes (and I can see the world that's waiting up for me~) so that I can sleep

*Dream

Huh?

Where am I?

This doesn't look like the knights of favonius headquarters...

"Do you need me father?" I was surprised to hear a voice so I turned around to see a little girl standing while looking at a man who was doing paperwork

"Yes..., your mother and I will have a divorce and you need to choose between me or her" He said it so casually it made me quite shock

What the heck!?

If they are going to get a divorce and they have kids, they are supposed to say! "Hey I don't know how to tell you this but your mother and I are getting a divorce" in a kind and gentle tone not just some cold and bland statement with no filter whatsoever, geez the sorry excuse of a parent he is

No one's POV:

Venti's head started to hurt much more

He groaned, clutching his head in his hands
