The survivor's guilt is killing them both on the inside. No matter how many battles they won or monsters they slayed, nothing can fill up the void left behind by your death. Thousands of years passed by since the end of the Archon War, but those memories are still fresh in their minds, like everything happened yesterday. This is the price that those who live too long have to pay.

You passed away on a day that had seemed ordinary at first, and appear back among mortals in the same manner. A woman dressed in strange clothes, with a mask over her face, arrives at Wangshu Inn. Something is telling the young Adeptus to keep an eye on her. She orders something and stares aimlessly at the landscape while waiting. Only after her food arrives and is placed on her table, she removes her mask, revealing a face long forgotten from this world.

This story contains: major character death, strong language, and other mature themes. The lore won't be fully accurate, please excuse that.

I'll Be Here by Indertia

"I have... Been through a lot." Lumine frowned. "'A lot' seems to be a gross understatement. You're like a walking ball of trauma. Being enslaved and tortured for decades and then losing your whole family and then fighting this endless war, alone, seems to qualify as more than 'a lot.' Maybe more like 'constant suffering.'" "I have a contract, and it's my duty and my honor to fulfill that contract. Even now that you defeated Osial, it's still my job to defend Liyue from the demons that plague it." Xiao rubbed his Vision between two fingers. "I'm the last defender in this invisible war." "Hm." Lumine sighed and rested her chin on her palm, looking up at Xiao with big honey-yellow eyes. "Then who will defend you?" ◊ An interpretation of where the story of Adeptus Xiao begins, what he went through before our time, and where he will end up. Cover art by @tyabasirakk on Twitter

How plausible is it for others to see Y/N as Xiao? He did not pick this way of life, and he does not endorse it.

He wants people to remember his name, he wants them to find it out. And he will make certain of it. In order to imprint it on their minds, including some disturbing images and gruesome events.
