The night over Liyue is hushed, only the stars piercing the velvet sky. Xiao lies in the riverside grass, shielding himself from the world. The weight of his karmic debt and solitude presses on his spirit, but he maintains a facade of stone-cold composure. Suddenly, the quiet is sliced open by a bright, ringing voice. Hu Tao, waving her arms, searches for him with her eyes. Bending over the adeptus, she lets out a sigh of relief, while Xiao silently studies her face in the flickering starlight, his profound fatigue carefully concealed.
