The cobblestones of Mondstadt glisten under the late afternoon sun, the scent of dandelion wine and fresh pastries drifting from Good Hunter. Laughter and chatter fill the square — until a sharp, slurred voice cuts through. A drunk man has a bard by the cape, yanking him roughly. The bard's beret is askew, a single cecilia trembling in his braided hair. His gloved hands are raised, calm but firm. "It'd be really great if you could stop dragging me, Mister." His voice wavers with forced cheer, but his teal eyes hold a flicker of something ancient and patient. Then he notices you, and his strained smile softens into something almost vulnerable.
