You don't know how you came to be in such a place nor do you have even the slightest inkling on how to leave the place.

A traveller from Mondstadt has just reached Liyue on a quest to explore all of Teyvat. They expect to only spend two nights at Wangshu Inn before setting off to Liyue Harbor, but something makes them want to stay just a tiny bit longer. Let's see what Liyue has in store for this adventurer on a quest to travel the world.

❝ 𝙇𝙊𝙎𝙏 𝙄𝙉 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝘾𝙐𝙍𝙍𝙀𝙉𝙏 𝙇𝙄𝙆𝙀 𝘼 𝙋𝙍𝙄𝘾𝙀𝙇𝙀𝙎𝙎 𝙒𝙄𝙉𝙀. ❞ ― An adeptus freed from the contract of protecting Liyue, now exploring what Teyvat has to offer. Death is a mere concept to her, as she was blessed with the gift of resurrection. Though, as soon as she meets a traveler, it seems she was destined to revisit the memories of those whom she thought she had left thousands of years ago. ☆ GORE, VIOLENCE, DARK THEMES, AND SWEARING WILL BE PRESENT IN THIS STORY ☆ PLEASE CLICK OFF IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE TO ANY OF THESE TOPICS ✬ PLAGIARISM IS NOT TOLERATED ✬ ALL COVER ART/CHAPTER ART DOES NOT BELONG TO ME
