The camera pans back eleven years. A warm hearth light glows as Crepus holds a toddler, introducing you to two bright-eyed eight-year-olds, Diluc and Kaeya, who vow eternal protection. Cut to the present: a cold, dark night. you, now seventeen, stands alone. The warmth is gone, replaced by years of neglect as attention shifted to Klee. Heartbroken and isolated, you walks toward Dragonspine, seeking crystals, the promise of protection forgotten in the shadows.
