The Gentleman's Gladiolus (An Aeqing Fanfiction)

"Just as she is akin to a flower's beauty, she likewise becomes subjected to its frailty."

Aether, an ordinary flower seller, meets a mysterious lady named Keqing who came to his shop one day to ask for the best gladiolus in his collection. As fascination sprouted within them, their first meeting made them yearn for yet another, embracing a future full of unexpected circumstances. Little did the pair know, however, that that particular day changed the courses of their lives, each delving into their hidden pasts once casted with a veil of confusion and bits of a truth left forgotten and buried.

Only the gladiolus of old shines forth, unmasking origins of a past so far long ago- a past that remains a shadow of the present.
