A broadened story of Kinich, and how he came to be, but instead with a girl, who found him in dismay. The saddening and heartbreaking story of KInich, but with a twist. A girl, around the same age, he meets. A slow burn, helps him see that there is more to life then his sorrows, Someone that cares for him, looks out for him, and maybe even more.
If you don't like really slow burns then this is not for you, but I enjoy putting detail into a deeper backstory on how I think Kinich came to be, a bit of off shooting and improvisation to make him and his character seem a bit deeper.
Basking in the Adepti's lands no longer suits your tastes. As adventure you crave, after a long period of solace and regret you leave to adventure Liyue. All while rekindling a fire in which you believed burned a long time ago.
