For what could be decades, he has known nothing but a windowless room, a locked door, and the man who keeps him there. Hope died a long time ago. Until the day a single maple leaf slipped through a small hole in the wall - reminding him that escape might be possible. After years of isolation, abuse, and the slow collapse of his mind, he must find the strength to challenge the walls around him - and the ones inside himself. This is a story about survival, the passage of time, and the quiet, unstoppable force of human will. Completed novel - 45,000 words.

Liyue was... interesting, to say the least. Its harbor, to which Childe was set to on yet another glorious (utterly ridiculous) mission by Her Majesty, the Tsaritsa, was too hot, too crowded for Childe's liking. And yet, there was something about it that made him want to stay. Perhaps it was the way the breeze faintly smelled of the ocean and fish, the way Morepesok did, or maybe it was because Liyue Harbor was simply so alive. Or maybe, just maybe, it was because those amber eyes were far too enticing to leave behind, even if they were the eyes of his enemy.

I think the concept of Kheanriah is really interesting so heads-up (There might be spoilers for Albedo and Kaeya's story!)
