What if Dendro Archon Kusanali was the only one that survived Teyvat's biggest war? Kusanali watched as the once burnt ground bloomed and blossomed full of life. If only she stopped them, maybe. Maybe Zhongli, Ei and Venti would've been alive, including the traveler. She remembered the screams of her nation, begging for help. She remembered the times when her people would disregard her well-being and worship the Scarlet King. The cataclysm and the war between Celestia and the Khanreians, long after that she was the only archon standing, alive. Those who died for the traveler and his abyss princess sister, were also buried and was requested a proper funerial. The twins didn't survive, yet were sent to another dimension for their safety, by Dainsleif. Although Dainsleif was always the one who constructively criticises her for playing folly with her own nation that she was supposed to protect, he died from Asmoday. The celestial being, defeated had one last resort. Annihilating her surroundings. The archons stayed -including Kusanali- and sheilded the vision weilders and Khanreians. In the end she was all alone, left to observe the Earth before her. She never grew older, her wisdom stayed and yet, her friends weren't there to be beside her hardest times. ---
