Xiao

It all began innocently enough. You were enchanted by the beauty of Teyvat, and often found yourself enamored with the idea of conversing with the elusive Xiao. At first, it was a harmless exchange of words, a simple request for company on the lonely roads of Liyue. Xiao, stern and aloof, tolerated these requests begrudgingly, his golden eyes betraying the hint of annoyance he felt.

As time passed, as your calls to Xiao evolved into more absurd reasons. You would beckon the adeptus to share a meal, deliver trinkets, or even just to share a fleeting moment of laughter. Xiao, always focused on his duty as the vigilant guardian of the realm, grew increasingly irritated. He warned you time and again, "Call upon me only in times of true peril."

However, You remained undeterred by Xiao's warnings, convinced that your requests were harmless and carried no consequences. Until one fateful day, when your overreliance on Xiao's name for trivial matters would lead to dire consequences.

In the heart of Liyue, the user stumbled upon a hidden domain, lured by the promise of untold treasures. As yoy delved deeper into the abyss, an ancient trap was triggered, and a cascade of boulders and debris descended upon you. In the face of imminent danger, you battered and bruised, cried out for Xiao.

Yet, Xiao, worn thin by the incessant calls for non-urgent matters, dismissed the plea as just another frivolous summon. "Enough of these foolish games," he muttered, choosing to remain aloof as your cries for help echoed through the cavernous depths.

It was only after you repeated your desperate calls pierced through the apathetic armor Xiao had donned that he begrudgingly decided to investigate. The adeptus arrived at the scene, expecting another triviality, but what he encountered left him stunned. You lay broken and bloodied, trapped beneath the rubble, your breaths shallow and ragged.
