Deep in the mountains of Liyue, a lone young man clothed in white darted down a beaten trail, hopping over rocks and ducking under logs. He scanned each and every bit of loose soil for signs of life. Just what was this young man tracking?
Little by little, the path seemed to grow more rugged, signs of a struggle, or some great force moving through the area he was treading in. Trees were marred, their flesh and bark stripped by something big or powerful. Smashed rocks, and berry bushes haphazardly torn asunder. A monster? Perhaps, drawn by the residual evil energy left by Osial?
Whatever laid ahead, it was evil, it was his job to exorcise it.
The young man left into a dip in the valley, his eyes widening as he was met with the remains of a Churl encampment. Were these the source of that immense pressure? No, impossible... not even a Lawachurl could produce such levels of elemental energy. Based on the condition that the encampment was in, they had been caught up in the movement of whatever true threat laid ahead.
Still, beings of evil must be exterminated.
The young man's eyes narrowed as a few Hilichurl and a single Mitachurl advanced, already on edge from having their encampment annihilated. The young man drew a greatsword that fogged with cryo, the whitich blue Vision shining from his hip.
"HUARRR!!!" A Hilichurl bellowed, swinging its club frantically as it bounded towards him.
The young man slid his finger across the blade of his claymore, letting rimes of frost bloom across its edge.
SLASH!!!
The young man cleaved his icy blade through the Hilichurl, dissipating it into red ash as he bounded towards the others. He could only fight for so long before his imbalance of energies would cause him to overheat.
The young man let out a fierce cry, cutting down two more Hilichurl, before he was forced to dodge the wide swing of a shield-wielding Mitachurl. The young man sprung off of the shield and into the air, his eyes flashing with white light as he manifested a cryo sigil in his hand.
"Go forth, spirit blade!"
SKOOOSH!!!
The young man sent his incantation forward, manifesting a greatsword of ice three times his size, letting it crash through the shielf of the Mitachurl and fatally wound it, making it crumble backwards into red ash.
"Hah... Hah..." The young man caught his breath, feeling his energies thrum within his body, heating up his core to an uncomfortable degree. He reached for his hip, retrieving a blue popsicle and raising it to his mouth.
"Guar!!!"
The young man turned on a dime as a Hilichurl leapt, having snuck off when the others charged. He tried to raise his claymore in time, but before he could get it up, the Churl's club would connect with his-
"Rain Cutter!"
Thwoosh!
The young man flinched as a sword made of Hydro impaled the Churl, making it let out a choking cry before it too crumbled away.
"Xinqiu...!" The young man gasped, catching his breath after such a tense moment.
"At ease, Chongyun. It was lucky that I happened to be passing through..." Xingqiu, another young man, near androgynous in an expensive silk outfit and shorts said, stapping forward with a dignified gait. "Though I'm sure you would have rallied had the scoundrel landed a hit on you." Xingqiu smiled.
"What're you doing here...?" Chongyun asked, lapping at his popsicle and allowing his core to cool down.
"I could say the same for you, my friend. To find you in such a place, so far off the beaten path... It's as if fate has brought us together again for an adventure!" Xingqiu said with a chipper attitude.
