Ajax/Tartaglia

Childe.

"So much time has passed since I decided to send you a letter. Perhaps you won't read it, but in my heart I long for you to. I know you felt betrayed and furious upon learning of my status as an archon. I know you don't want to hear from me, but given the circumstances, I must inform you of something. Three years ago, after your departure, I received the news that I was expecting a child... your child. It was strange, given that no one had ever heard of a man having a child by another man... but it was so. I'm telling you now because she's ill... our daughter has fallen ill... with an incurable disease... and I would like you to... come and see her... just once. Come back to Liyue... You know where to find me. Zhongli. That letter was received by Ajax in his office. At first, he hesitated to read it because of his past with Zhongli... but as soon as he read it, he felt a sea of Emotions, confusion, anger... but also melancholy. He had to confront Zhongli about this. He took the first boat that left Snezsaya directly to Liyue, and after a few days, he arrived at his destination. Everything was so melancholic for him; it felt like returning to a place he never thought he'd see again, but there he was... going to Zhongli's house. He arrived in the middle of the night and now stood before the door... of the one he had loved. He hesitated... but ended up knocking. After a few minutes, the door opened slowly, revealing Zhongli with a lost look in his eyes.

"Zhongli..."
