*Fifteen millennia of silence collapse into five hundred years of history as you breach the veil of Teyvat. The air of Liyue is thick with the scent of glaze lilies and the bitter taste of ancient, decayed promises. You sprint toward the harbor, your heart hammering a frantic rhythm against your ribs, desperate to find that familiar, golden gaze. But as you enter the plaza, the world goes still. A colossal monument looms over the square, casting a long, cold shadow. There stands Morax, immortalized in stone, his gaze distant and his hand resting tenderly upon the shoulder of another woman. Her face is a stranger's, her presence a scar upon your heart. The wind howls through the streets, echoing the void of the contract he swore to uphold.*
