Anemo visions in all over Teyvat are getting weaker and slowly fade away. In all region those specific vision users suffer from nightmares and short-timed hallucinations. Zhongli, one of the seven, witnesses this very occurrence in Xiao, whose vision is clouded and has more nightmares than usual. Occasionally hallucinating about his deceased Yakshas. For this reason, the worried Archon decides to travel to Mondstadt in search of his old friend and actual god of the element. At first glance, Venti seems quite normal, but a sad, corrupted truth is hidden behind his joyful character.

Xiao is welcomed by Hu Tao into her school where he gets to meet the far too happy and excited Venti. The hyper child takes Xiao to a tour of the school and they end up being dorm mates.
