Tevyat Adventures - Multiverse Madness/story

Below is the full First part of Teyvat adventures
== Previous Story Recap ==
Like every other story I write, I'm gonna give you guys a little recap of what happened. So after the Squad came back from the Danganronpa Multiverse, they were greeted by Meowica. Meowica shot Axel right in the dome and Axel died. Nene, Michal, and Brian ran away while Axel’s corpse just lay there. Meowica decided to steal Yami and Axel’s powers so she took his body all the way back to MeowMania. When Axel died, he got sent to the middle. The middle is where God evaluates if you go to Heaven or Hell. Whoever goes to the middle has only 1 chance of going back down. If you die again, you can't get back into the overworld. Axel used that one time to take out Meowica. Once he did that, he went to Brampton to find his friends. Once he found them, Nene was in her bed, dead looking. Michal and Brian explained to him that she said she felt like someone stabbed her and burned her to death. Weirdly, that's how Axel killed Meowica. So he assumed that Nene and Meowica shared some bond. Or so he thought. After he healed “Nene”, Nene started chewing out Axel for almost killing her which made the squad fall apart. Axel figured out that Meowica was controlling Nene and tried to tell Brian and Michal but didn't believe him. So Axel packed his bags and is now on his way to Aster. 
Whew that was a lot to write. Enjoy! :D
== Story ==
   Axel was walking down the street. The street was abandoned with nobody in sight. Only flipped cars remained on the roads and many cracks in the street. He was on his way to the tallest building he knew, or tallest domain he knew, MeowMania or Newly named The Shrine of Yin (because who tf names a evil place MeowMania? Not tf me, it sounds like a computer virus. Maybe it is Alyssa) . He was gonna try to portal up to Aster but with the state Axel was in, he had no shot at getting there, but he kept on trying.  “Ugh, So heavy”  Axel said as he dragged his backpack on the ground.  Although the bag wasn't filled with many things, the few things it contained were quite heavy on Axels back so he used some of his remaining power and placed his backpack in his portal.  “Why Didn’t I do that before?” Axel Sighed.   “I forgot about my powers I guess..im so tired “ Axel said to himself.  “MeowMania, MeowMania” Axel said as he walked along the rough street.  “The teleportation link should be around here somewhere...”  Axel said as he touched the wall and felt a sudden spark.   “Yup”  said Axel. He opened a portal but was there for only a little bit before it closed. “Crap, I can't open it in this state,” said Axel. Axel was extremely tired from his journey and had no energy left. “Have to find a place to rest…..” said Axel. He walked until he found an abandoned building. He went inside and slept on the floor until morning. He woke to a dark and cloudy sky. The ground was covered in dust and mud. “What the hell-” said Axel, before he glanced outside and saw puddles of rain on the ground. “Oh it rained. But how the hell did mud get on me” said Axel in confusion. “Well I better get going, long road ahead of me” said Axel, getting up. Axel slowly crawled up and dragged himself outside. “I need to find new clothes. My clothes are a mess, ” said Axel. He walked a few blocks until he came across a clothing store. “Sweet” said Axel, running towards the store. He opened the door and a bell chime played. “Hello welcome to Dinos Clothing store” said  man. “Ummm Dinos Clothing?” said Axel in confusion. “Ever since the attack on the city happened, Dino cafe was one of the buildings that were destroyed. Now we're forced to create a clothing store since we have no ingredients” explained the boy. He looked 18 and had a red shirt that said Dino Clothing on his left chest area. “So watcha looking for?” asked the man. His name was dan. “Well “Dan”, I'm looking for anything  similar to what I'm wearing now,” said Axel. “Ok “Kid”, you have dust and mud all over. Do you want that on the new clothes as well or?” asked Dan. “Ha ha very funny. For your information, I could beat your ass with no hesitation so don't go calling me kid” said Axel. “Do something about it, Kid,” said Dan. “Ok, I'm killing you,” said Axel. “Ha-” said Dan before he got revoked of his talking privileges. Know why? Because his head was gone. Axel had decapitated him. “Now I'll find new clothes and get them for free,” said Axel. He found the clothes he wanted and was about to walk out until a person came out from the back. “Hello. Hope you enjoyed your stay!” said the girl. “Yea. You too- Oh shit” said Axel. “You too.. YOU TOO!?” said the girl in anger. “I think I gotta run,” said Axel. He started to run. “OH NO YOU DONT” said the girl, chasing him down. “WHY THE HELL ARE YOU SO FAST!” said Axel. “I TRAINED FOR THIS MOMENT!” said the girl. “Oh wait, I can teleport out” said Axel. (Idiot) “Bye” said Axel, placing a portal and escaping. “OH YOUR NOT FREE!” said the girl. She looked at her watch and it had a tracker. “COME HERE BOY!” said the girl. She found him. “WHAT THE HELL!” said Axel. Axel threw a beam at her but she swiped that away. “WHAT THE-” said Axel. “LIKE I SAID, I TRAINED FOR THIS!” said the girl. “OK I'M SORRY. LEAVE ME ALONEEEE!” said Axel. He teleported out again and she found him again. “BRO, HOW THE HELL DO YOU KEEP FINDING ME” said Axel. “I HAVE MY WAYS!” said the girl. Axel threw his clothes that he had “bought” in his bag and it was now on the road. Axel teleported out again. He saw the girl check her watch. “He got away. there's always next time” said the girl. The girl looked around one last time and started scurrying back to Dino’s Clothing. “Aw man, the clothes I stole..” Axel sighed. “Time to get to that teleport link.” Axel thought. Axel brought himself to the wall that he seen the previous day. “Ok. Time to get to work” said Axel. He put both of his hands on the wall and closed his eyes. “To be honest, I forgot how to do this,” thought Axel. The portal opened again but closed almost instantly and Axel went flying into the wall. “What the hell happened” said Axel. “Last time that didn't happen. Why now?” said Axel. He got up and walked towards the wall again. “I forgot how to do this. I have to remember” said Axel. He started concentrating as hard as he could. He thought for a little while until the idea sparked back into his head. “OH I REMEMBER NOW!” shouted Axel. Axel put his hands on the wall again and started moving his power to his hands. “Ok then I do this” said Axel. He opened his eyes and the portal opened. “YES!” said Axel. He walked inside the portal and was teleported to a random place. “ASTER HERE I COME!” Axel said as he teleported. . He looked around and saw fields of green grass, lakes and small waterfalls, and a small fairy-like creature on the ground.  “Ummm. Since when did Aster have fairies-” said Axel, flicking his maple brown eyes to observe the creature. “Or maybe that isn't a fairy but a fairy shaped marshmallow.”
“Maybe it's emergency food. ” Axel thought, suggesting the most imaginative ideas to himself. “I'm gonna go with the second option.” Axel thought to himself “I am hungry..” he glanced towards the fairy.  He slowly walked towards the creature. The small creature seemed to notice Axel slowly approaching and pointed its galaxy purple eyes at Axel. “Eh. who are?-”  “COME HERE!” said Axel, leaping towards the fairy. “EEK” said the fairy, flying away from Axel. “COME HERE-” said Axel before he got hit with a small but strong gust of wind. “Hey!” A voice called. “What in the Archons are you doing?” the voice revealed a boy. The boy’s golden amber eyes were directed at Axel, clouded with an expression Axel couldn’t read.“Trying to eat the floating marshmallow,” said Axel, slowly getting up. “She’s not a marshmallow,” said the boy, his unreadable expression changing to an unamused one. “She? Not a marshmallow ?” Axel said with a perplexed expression . The boy let out a sigh. “That is a fairy. Her name is Paimon, my travel companion”  The boy explained. “I guess my first guess was right,” Axel thought to himself. “Yeah, Paimon is Paimon, not a floating marshmallow!” Paimon added, flying to the boy's side “She may be annoying sometimes but she is the best companion I could ask for.” Said the boy, with a  little smile.  “Aww, Paimon appreciates that Alijah” Paimon thanked him. “So your name is Alijah?” Axel interrupted. “Yep, but you can also call me Traveller or The traveller. I'm usually called something like that” Alijah said. “Alijah what a goofy name” said Axel under his breath. “Paimon has never seen you around here, what's your name?” Paimon Asked. “Axel Aster,” Axel quickly replied. “Axel Aster..That is not a teyvat type name. Where are you from?” Alijah asked. “I'm from Brampton, Brampton Ontario.” Axel replied. “Paimon has never heard of that place before.” “Do you have a vision?” Paimon asked. “a vision? What the hell is a vision?” Axel asked. Paimon looked at him in surprise. “If you dont know what a vision is, you're definitely not from teyvat.” Paimon exclaimed. “Mhm” Alijah agreed. “What even is a vision. Is it something you see?”Axel asked. “No silly. A vision is an Element entrusted to a person by one of the seven,”  Paimon explained. “Elemental powers? I guess I have them, but my powers have never been referred to as a vision” Axel replied. “Could you show Show us your power?” Paimon Asked. “Ok” said Axel. He placed a portal down, went through the portal, and teleported to the opposite side of them. “Whoa. Never saw that type of power in this world before.” said Alijah. “Paimon thinks the closest vision to your power is an Electro vision.  Yuheng Omowumi has teleportation ability because of her electro vision.” Paimon said. “Well now that I satisfied you, let me ask questions,” said Axel. “Ok-” said Paimon before Axel interrupted. “1st:This teyvat place you keep mentioning, is that where we are right now ?” asked Axel. “yes. You're specifically in Mondstat, The nation of fred-” said Alijah. “Shush your mouth you air bender” said Axel. “Air bender-” said Alijah. “2nd: Why am I here?” asked Axel. “We dont know” said Alijah. “All Paimon saw was you here flat on the ground.”  “Damn. Well I gotta get back” said Axel. “Well, since you're here now, what do you want to do?” Alijah asked. “I don’t know” Axel asked. “Alijah, you need to buy some food from a good hunter, why not take Axel with us back to Mondstat?” Paimon suggested. “Sure, i'm down for a meal” Axel responded. “Follow me” Alijah signalled.
“We're almost there!” Paimon said as they reached a large bridge. “Is it across this bridge?” Axel said, eyeing the entrance on the other side. “Yep!” Paimon said, nodding her head. “Well I can just do this then” Axel said, placing a portal down. Before stepping in he turned his head towards the two. “Are you guys coming?” Axel asked. “Oh,yeah, right behind you” Alijah walked in behind him. “Wait for Paimon!” Paimon flew into the portal in front of them. The Three entered the portal to the entrance to Mondstat. Two Knights stood at the entrance and politely greeted them with  “Welcome to Mondstat”. “Hello Swan, Hello Lawrence.” Alijah greeted. “Hello,” said Axel. The three entered the arched entrance. “Good hunter is right up there” Alijah Pointed. Axel directed his glance to where Alijahs finger was pointing and noticed a small little wooden booth like a restaurant. “Paimon can smell her order of sticky honey dew over there!” Paimon exclaimed.  “Let's go before it gets cold!”  Paimon flew towards the booth. “Sometimes she forgets we can't fly.” Alijah murmured to Axel. “She may be able to fly, but she can't teleport there.” Axel said, Placing a portal down. “Smart.” Alijah said, shooting Axel an amused look. Alijah entered the portal, Axel followed him and closed the portal behind him. Axel walked out of the portal. The first thing that came into view was Paimon flying in front of the two. When she saw the two standing in front of her, the expression in her purple eyes changed from an excited one to a surprised one. “ wha-How did you beat Paimon!” she exclaimed. “Axel.” Alijah chuckled. “You ruined Paimons win streak!” Paimon exclaimed. “Well you can't always be a winner now can you Paimon.” Alijah smiled. “Ugh.” Paimon murmured. “Don't be too upset about it, you have your meal to eat.” Axel said. Paimon’s expression lit up once again. “Yeah, Axels right. You've been excited for it all day” Alijah exclaimed. Paimon nodded her head in agreement. “Paimon thinks that we shouldn't waste time arguing. Paimons sticky honey roast will go bad by the time we finish” Paimon slowly moved towards the stand Alijah was pointing at before. Paimon started to talk with the lady behind the booth as the two walked towards the wooded restaurant .The woman turned towards the two. “Traveller. I'd expect you to come around here sooner or later.” She smiled. “Hello sara!” Alijah greeted. “Little Paimon told you you're here for her order of Sticky honey roast.” “Yep,” Alijah said. “I have it ready, all you need is for you to pay,” Sara responded. “Sure, how much mora do I owe you?” Alijah asked. “500” Sara said. Alijah nodded and started to search for his wallet. Sara glanced in Axels' direction and took notice to Axel. “Oh, hello there!” Sara waved. “Sup” Axel greeted, with a small wave. “Are you here with Traveller or are you here to order?” Sara asked. “I'm here with Alijah, to pick up paimons order” Axel responded. Sara nodded. Alijah pulled his wallet out of one of his pockets, and started to skim through the bills. He soon found the specific bill and handed it to Sara. “And here is your Sticky honey roast, miss paimon.” Sara handed a fresh plate of meat to Paimon. Paimon exclaimed happily, her expression matching her exclaim. “Anything else you would like to order?” Sara asked. “I’ll go for a chicken-mushroom skewer. Axel, do you want anything?” Alijah Asked. “Ill have what your having…The chicken mushroom thingy.” Axel said. “Two chicken-mushroom sewers then.” 
“Thanks sara!” Alijah called. “See you soon traveller.” Sara responded, with a polite wave. Alijah and Axel joined Paimon at a table beside them. Axel looked at the little white fairy chow down on the meal and the sheer pace of her feasting surprised Axel. Axel sat at a wooded chair beside Alijah, and started to eat his chicken-mushroom skewer. He took a bite at the top of his skewer. The taste of the Chicken was familiar, but cooked in a different way. He took a bite of the mushroom next. It had, once again, the same taste as the mushrooms he'd have in a bowl of soup,but grilled and spiced in a different way. “This is really good.” Axel murmured. “It's simple, yet unique” “Yep! And every Nation has their own special spin on it.” Paimon murmured. “Really?” Axel asked. “Yeah! But in paimons opinion Mondstat’s is a little dry.” “I agree,” Alijah responded. “Is mondstat the capital of teyvat?” Axel asked. “Capital?” Paimon and Alijah said in unison. “From that reaction  I'm assuming it's not.” Axel murmured, rolling his eyes off in the distance. “What is mondstat then?” “Mondstat is one of the seven nations here in Teyvat, Mondstat being the Nation of freedom.” Alijah explained. “And The Nation of Anemo!” Paimon added. “What is an Anemo?” Axel asked. “It's not a thing, Its one of the Elements Paimon told you about!” Paimon responded, placing her arms on her hips. “Paimon, don't be so rude,” Alijah scolded her. “Is there a leader or something?” Axel asked. “Mondstat is ruled by the Anemo archon, lord Barbatos.” Paimon started, gesturing her finger in a pointing manner.  “What's an archon?” Axel interrupted. Paimon was about to open her mouth to respond but Alijah started before she could get a word out. “A god-like being who rules over a nation through a mortal vessel.” Alijah said, eating a bit of his skewer. “Hey you interrupted Paimon!” “Come on, you were gonna say the same thing.” Alijah said, glaring at Paimon. “No Paimon was not!” Paimon exclaimed, crossing her arms in anger. “What were you gonna say then?” “Uh..” Paimon started to scratch her head. “Proves my point.” Alijah smiled. Paimon let out a grunt of anger. Axel let out a chuckle. “How bout the ‘Brampton’  place you came from, what's it like?” Alijah asked, his eyes full of curiosity. “It's nothing special, just a town full of people.” Axel explained. “Oh. Is it known for anything? “Paimon asked. “I guess Brampton is known for the Hero’s Training academy, I used to go there.” Axel  said, with a spark of sadness. Alijah opened his mouth to speak but was interrupted by paimons loud curiosity “That sounds so cool!” Paimon exclaimed. “What do you learn there?” Paimon asked, in a very curious tone. Axel let a small chuckle. “It's a place where kids with powers train to become full-fledged heroes.” Axel explained. “Wow, Paimon would have never guessed someone your age would be training as a superhero!” Paimon exclaimed, eyes wide with curiosity. “Can I talk now Paimon, or do you have more to say?” “paimons done.” Paimon said,with a small touch of embarrassment in her tone. “What do you mean by 'I used to go there? Did you get expelled or something?” Alijah asked. “No, I left the school to look for my home planet, Aster. I tried to use the teleport link to get there, but there must have been more, since I ended up here instead of Aster.” Axel explained. “So that’s why you appeared out of thin air!” Paimon exclaimed. “You accidentally teleported into teyvat!” “Yep.” Axel said, taking a bite of his skewer. “So you're just trying to find a way back home,correct?” Alijah asked. “Yep.” Axel responded. “are there these teleport links in teyvat? Maybe you could use one to get back” Paimon suggested.  “Those teleport links only exist in my world. And even if they were in this world, I wouldn’t know which one would send me home.” Axel said. “Paimons out of ideas then” Paimon said, sighing. Alijah’s eyes looked as if he sparked an idea. “I know, why don’t we ask Ethan. He ought to know something about teleportation between worlds.” Alijah suggested. “Paimon thinks that’s a wonderful idea!” Paimon said, with an nod of agreement. “Alright then, let’s finish eating and we’ll set off for The knights of favonius headquarters.” Alijah exclaimed.
The three got up from the table they were previously sitting at and started to walk. “Hopefully he’s not in Dragonspine.” Alijah murmured, “If he is then we will just have to go find him!” Paimon exclaimed. “Let’s hope it doesn’t come to that, I hate travelling in dragonspine.” Alijah said. “If he’s in this dragonspine place, maybe I can teleport to him.” Axel said. “I guess.” Paimon exclaimed. “Wait, couldn't you just teleport us to the headquarters?” Alijah asked. “I can try.” Axel said. Axel placed down a portal and attempted to teleport to the headquarters. He poked his head in the portal and was in a totally different location, he saw a place with many stone mountains. “Nope.” Axel said. Axel closed the portal and opened a new one, Again he was nowhere near where he needed to be. “Ugh, it's just like when the crystal was broken. My portals just don’t go where I entend them if I don’t know where I’m teleporting” Axel sighed. “That sucks, we have to do it the normal way,”  Alijah said. “Well, Paimon doesn’t.” Paimon said. “We get it, you're a fairy.” Axel sighed.
“Here we are, the Knights of Favonius headquarters.” Alijah said,glaring at the large castle-like building. “It looks cool” Axel said. “It’s just an ordinary building, but it has some pretty cool people inside.” Alijah explained. “Cool, Cool.” Axel said. Alijah opened the large wooden door. Paimon flew inside and Alijah walked in. Axel followed them in and saw a beautiful hallway. It had black and white tiles on the ground and beautifully painted white walls. There were small wooden accents, holding small white Vases and a wooden balcony like area above them. Topped off with a chandelier hanging from the roof.  “Woah.” Axel gasped. “This place is like a castle.”. “It's fit for knights, eh?” Alijah said. “I’m a frequent visitor to the knights, I am the Honorary Knight after all.”  Alijah said, in a proud tone. “Really?” Axel said. “Yes.” Alijah responded. “Alijah earned that title for helping the knights, with many jobs, one of them being Stormterror.” Paimon explained. “ I have no clue what a stormterror is but it sounds dangerous.” Axel responded. “It was very dangerous.” “Let's go talk to Master Cristian, he should know where Ethan is.” Paimon suggested. “Good idea.” Alijah said. Alijah and Paimon began to move towards one of the many doors in the headquarters and slowly opened it.  “Hello Master Cristian.” Alijahs greeted.  “Oh, Honorary Knight, Hello.” a voice greeted him. The three entered the room.  “Hello Master Cristain” Paimon waved. Inside there was a man with golden-blonde hair,He had a small black lace strung around his earing. He had bright blue eyes and wore one golden cross earring. He wore a white strapless shirt with different colour patterns embedded on it. He wore a small navy blue tailcoat with a puffed out collar. He wore dark blue gloves and white pants. “Hello Paimon.” Cristian politely waved. Cristain turned his head toward Axel, he seemed to notice him enter the room  “Is he your friend?.”  Cristian asked.  “Yep, Thats Axel my friend from Liyue ”Alijah responded. “Hello Axel.” Cristian politely waved to him. “Have you come here to pay me a visit or do you have a request for me to fulfill?.” Cristain asked. “Actually we came to ask if you know where Ethan is.” Alijah said. “Ethan? He should be in the lab, I saw Vivie walk in there and exclaim `Big brother Ethan and Big Sister Nightrose!´ And then started to ramble on about something ” Cristain explained. “The lab? Perfect, Thank you Master Cristain.” Alijah responded. “Your welcome Traveler, Let the wind lead you all.” Cristan smiled. “Bye,Bye!” Paimon waved. The door creaked open and the three left the office. “Good, he's not in dragonspine,” Alijah sighed. “His lab is right over there.” Alijah pointed at another wooden door. The three walked towards the door Alijah had pointed at. Alijah opened the large wooden door “And then I came here!” A bright voice chimed.“Hello!” Paimon chimed. There were three figures in the room, one of them was a short, long dirty blond haired man. He wore his hair down with a small half braid around his hair. He had bright blue eyes and He wore a long white cloak like coat, with short t-shirt like sleeves. He wore an indigo shirt with black accents, and black shorts. He also had black knee high boots with small golden accents. The figure closest to him was an average height girl with shaggy Black hair that faded into a minty green. She wore her hair in a thin, long ponytail held together by a pale aqua, almost white butterfly wing like bow. She had beautiful amber eyes, and black glasses with a little butterfly wing like accents on the top of them. She wore a white and black beret with small golden accents and a small matching bow on the side of the beret. She seemed to have some sort of animal ears hidden under her hair. Her outfit was a Blue corset with a longer short like bottom with a black, ruffled hem. She wore white gloves, grey, slightly transparent tights and white thigh high boots. The smallest figure there was a young girl with elf-like ears and pale brown, almost blond hair. Her hair was in two small pigtails held together by a red hair tie, one appearing to have a bright, fire red clover. She had a red newsboy cap with golden accents and a golden clover imprinted on it. This hat had a clover embroidered pin and a feather on it. She wore a Red jacket with darker red outlines, with the same golden clover imprinted in the middle. Under the jacket, she wore a little white dress and matching white shorts. She had a fluffy scarf. She wore brown leather gloves on her hands and a matching leather bag with a small furry pom pom attached to it.  “Traveler, Paimon, hello” The man waved. “Hello, honorary knight and Paimon!” the young girl waved.  “Hello everyone” Ailjah waved.  “Oh,Visitors!” The girl's soft voice rang.  “Hello Paimon,Traveler and unknown person” The girl smiled.  “Axel Aster” Axel introduced himself.  “Aster...” The girl pressed her finger on her chin.  “May I ask, are you not from Tevyat?” The girl asked.  “Is it that obvious?” Axel sighed.  “Oh, I didn't think I would be correct!” the girl chimed.  “Hm, a person who hails outside of Tevyat, Interesting. How did you get here?” The man asked  “Teleport malfunction, I think,” Axel said.  “Teleporting how?” The man asked.  “Well I was trying to use the teleport link,to get somewhere else, but I think I might have used the wrong one,” Axel explained.  “One last question, how does this teleport link work?” The man asked.  “I don't know how to explain it but, it's a wave-like link that I can connect my powers to. It's for teleporting long distances” Axel explained, once again.  “Do you mean your vision?” The child asked.  “Well technically in your world they are considered visions, but they're just powers to me. I was born with them.”  Axel said.  “Born with a Vision, you are quite unique” the girl lifted her glasses. “Ethan, we need to help get him home, if you have any information about dimensional teleportation please tell us. ” Alijah asked. “Well, as an Alchemist I have a handful of information on dimensional teleportation, but it's a topic I haven't looked into thoroughly, ” Ethan paused. “But if you desperately need it I can get the papers I've written on it.” . “Thank you Ethan.” Alijah said. “NightRose, can you get me my Grey notebook?”  Ethan requested. “Of course, Mister Ethan.” NightRose scurried to a drawer of what appeared to be a desk. She searched through it and finally pulled something out of the drawer. It was a silver-grey notebook. NightRose brought the notebook to Ethan and he quickly skimmed through it. “NightRose, this is my Sketchbook ” Ethan said. “I'm sorry Mister Ethan, i'll go get it right away!” NightRose panicked. “My apologies, I forgot to say the specific shade of grey. The darkest grey notebook ” Ethan facepalmed.  “The one with a pale brown bookmark.”  Ethan added. NightRose scurried back to the desk and searched through the same drawer and found another notebook. “Is this the one? ” NightRose waved the notebook in the air. “Yes,” Ethan responded. NightRose scurried back towards Ethan and gave him the notebook. Ethan skimmed through the pages again and stopped at the page that had a small green sticky note on the top. “Vivie, I need you to leave the lab for a minute,” Ethan said. “Awe, but-” Vivie whined  “I need to speak with the older people in the room” Ethan repeated.  “Fine” Vivie walked out of the room. Ethan walked towards the door and closed it.  “Ahem, The Multiverse Theory. According to my findings, there are many traces of multiverse activity among the many outlandish relics I've found around Mondstat. Tracks of auras I've never seen before, although some were familiar. One aura I found similar to mine. Accordingly, these auras seem to have a strong sense of elemental energy, maybe similar to the visions here in Tevyat. Maybe a course of large elemental reactions can trigger something to open a dimensional breach?” Ethan read.  “A dimensional breach, that might just work” Alijah said.  “Paimon doesn't know what a dimensional breach is, ” Paimon said.  “I think I understand, we just need a good amount of vision bearers to create different elemental reactions to open a dimensional breach! ” NightRose inferred.  “We need About 3 hydro, 3-5 geo, and 3-4 pryo, Anemo, Hydro, Electro and Cryo vison holders.” Ethan listed. “What about dendro?” Alijah asked. “dendro is releasing soon. So you should have a dendro ability by the time this story is done.” Ethan said. “Oh yeah.” Alijah said.  “Well you have two vision bearers right here. ”  NightRose said.  “Perfect,” Ailjah said.  “Paimon knows a person with an Anemo vision, Master Cristian! and outrider Olivia has a pyro Vi-” Paimon said.  “We shouldn't ask any knights, they have work to do.” Ethan said.  “How about we go to Angels Share and ask Master Xavier. He has a Pyro vision.” Paimon said.  “Good idea.” Ethan said “maybe the regulars will be there too.”  “Like Caitlyn, Gabe and Tyylon?” Alijah asked. “Exactly” Ethan said.  “Let's get moving then, the quicker we do it the faster I get home” Axel said. Ethan opened the door and walked into the hallway, NightRose followed him. The three followed them out of the headquarters, into the center of Mondstat and finally into the Tavern. 
“Hold your horses, Paimon, we can't fly!” Alijah called after her. The two walked towards the tavern door. “Angel’s share” Axel read. “Let's go!” Paimon urged. “Okay okay”  Alijah rolled his eyes. “Hello!” Paimon chimed. As she flew through the door. The bartender there was a Man with long brown hair with bright red tips. He was serving three people. The shortest of the three Was a pale skinned young girl with braided blond hair that faded to an aqua blue. Her eyes were also this same aqua colour. She was wearing a teal cloak and a ruffled white shirt, with a leather corset belt. She had a matching teal beret with a white flower and two teal feathers on it. The tallest of the three was a man with long blond hair. His hair had small streaks of light blue and had navy blue tips. He had one pale blue eye and one covered by a black eyepatch. The final one of the three looked to have a height in between the two beside him. He was a mixed man with short wine coloured hair and ice blue eyes, some strands tied into small braids. He had a long black and white coif with a red inside. On top of the coif was a silver and black crown topped on top of it. He wore a white and black top with a red gem planted in the middle, ruffled where his long white glove ended. She wore black pants and a small black fabric coming from the top. He seemed to be wearing church attire. “Master Xavier, another drink please.” The girl placed down her mug.The bartender turned towards the group, while grabbing the mug. “Traveller,hello.” Xavier greeted, as the group walked towards the bar. “Hello master Xavier.” The turned  girl noticed the group  “Oh, Traveler, Paimon, I didn expect you to be here” the girl said. “Hi, Caitlyn!” Paimon said. “Hello Caitlyn.” Ethan said. NightRose gave a small wave. “Hi” the tall man and the medium man said in unison. “Hello Captian Gabriel! Hello Tyylon!” Paimon greeted. “Hi, Paimon Long time no see” “Come to whine to me again? ” Caitlyn cheekily.  grinned. “Paimon, doesn't whine to you!” Paimon exclaimed. “welll” said Caitlyn. “Caitlyn” Alijah murmured. Caitlyn glared at him. Axel saw Alijah gesturing to cut it out. “You weren’t whining to me? Your tone must have deceived me” said Caitlyn. “Paimon does not sound whiny,You tone-deaf bard!” Paimon yelled at her. “Please, not in my tavern” Xavier scoffed, Giving Caitlyn her mug. “Seems like you’ve brought some companions.” Xavier gave a polite nod to Ethan and NightRose “Who’s this, boy?” Tyylon said. “This is Axel, he’s the reason why we’re here.” Alijah explained. “What is this reason?” Tyylon asked. “We need to round up vison bearers to create a dimensional inversion to send Axel back to his multiverse.” NightRose exclaimed.  “What´s *hic* a dimensional inversion? I Have never heard that term *hic* .Ever. And I’ve been alive for a long damn *hic* time.” Caitlyn said. “How many drinks did she have?” Ethan asked.  “36”  Xavier said.  “And counting~” Caitlyn smiled, hiccupping again.  “How have you not died from alcohol poisoning?”  NightRose lowered her Glasses.  “Haha. *Hic*That's a trade secret Dear NightRose” Caitlyn chuckled.  “This is why we don’t drink too much kids” Ethan murmured.  “Another Multiverse? What in the name of lord Benadryl are you talking about.” Tyylon said. “It’s lord Barbatos to you” Caitlyn said, with a pinch of offence in her tone. “Is he drunk too?” Ethan asked. “All three of them are very drunk.” Xavier said. “To awnser you question, a multiverse or the multiverse theory is the theory that there are an uncountable number of realities parallel to a main multiverse.” Ethan explained. “Interesting.” Caitlyn said, followed by a hiccup. “You’ve got my interest.” “I have nothing better to do” Tyylon said, taking the last sip of his drink. “Nor do I. ” Gabriel. “Let me finish my drink and I’ll be right with you.” Gabriel said.
Gabriel gulped down the rest of his wine and Caitlyn tipsily got from her stool. Tyylon soon got up beside her, In less shakier form and started to walk up. Caitlyn hit Gabriel on the back. “Let's go Gabriel, we don’t have much time to lose” Caitlyn sighed as she hiccuped again. “I'm going.”  Gabriel got up. “Are you coming Master Xavier?”  Gabriel asked. “I have a tavern to tend to if you can't see.” Xavier scoffed. “Well, see you later master Xavier. *hic*” Caitlyn saluted her hand playfully. “Gabriel, you're paying.” Tyylon said as he left. “Are you fucking me right now.” Gabriel growled. Axel saw Xavier crack a small grin . “Just take my money Xavier.” Gabriel said, taking multiple bills out of his wallet. “Thank you.” Xavier said. “Let's  go.” Gabriel sighed, Leaving the Tavern. “Where do we intend on going first?” NightRose asked. “Lets go to Liyue. There must be vision bearers there.” Alijah said. “Let's get walking then.” Caitlyn winked. 
“Ugh, walking is terrible! *hic* You guys really do this to get to far places?”  Caitlyn grunted.  “Yes, Caitlyn.” Tyylon said,rolling his eyes. “You don't walk?” Axel asked. Caitlyn let out a hiccup  “I fly ”.  “Well if you fly then fly, ''Axel said. “Okay, I'll fly then,” Caitlyn said. “Do we have time for this?” Alijah asked. “Of course we do! It’ll be faster anyways” Caitlyn said. Caitlyn revealed her wings from under her cape. They were bird wings.They started at a pale aqua into the darker shade the tips of her hair were. She flexed her wings a little and then smiled. “Since when did you have wings?” Gabriel asked, perplexed. “Since forever.” Caitlyn smiled. “The good old wings.” She chuckled. She shook herself and flexed her wings once more. She clumsily almost fell down and picked herself back up. “I dont think it's quite safe to fly while you have that payload of drinks on your table .” Ethan sighed. “I'm a master of flight, don’t worry about me” Caitlyn said. “Sure, sure,” Ethan said. “Hey Ethan, care to give me a head start?” Caitlyn asked. “no” Ethan said.  “Pleeeeaseee~” Caitlyn begged. “Fine” Ethan moved his hands and placed a flower-like thing on the ground. Caitlyn walked on it and it soon elevated . “Hold onto your hats-“ Caitlyn started to create a strong gust of wind. She took a small jump, flapped her wings slowly and started to fly. “Because it’s time for Takeoff~” She said in a playful tone. She flicked her hands playfully and spun up. Soon Axel found himself flying up slowly. “Woah!” Axel said as he placed down a portal under him.  He Portaled to the top of the wind current.  Caitlyn flew up to him, “Cool eh?” Caitlyn spun around him. “Very” Axel said, Placing another portal under him, to prevent a fall. “And he’s gone,” Caitlyn said. Axel teleported back to the top. Axel  looked around, Everyone else seemed to have a glider of some sort. After a little while the current started to slowly falter. “Time for a windstorm!” Caitlyn said, making the wind current stronger. Everyone around Axel started to glide with less control, in a circular motion. “Caitlyn, I think you're overdoing it, just a bit” Alijah called to her. “Are you sure? I'm having a grand time over here!” Caitlyn said. “Because you can fly!” NightRose called, clenching her glasses . As soon as NightRose finished her sentence, a panicked scream came about. “What was that?” NightRose questioned. Axel looked around, the sound didn’t come from anyone in the wind current. Axel soon saw a white flash appear in front of him. “What was that?” Axel said. Axel glared closer at the flash and realised it was a person. The flash seemed to be a young charred grey haired boy getting swept away by the wind, the boy seemed to be an adventurer by his attire. Axel looked around once more and spotted two girls, one with grey hair and one with dirty blonde hair. Axel saw The dirty blond haired girl turn into a raven and flew along the current. She tried to help the grey haired girl but was unsuccessful. “Um, Caitlyn, I think your wind is sweeping away other people.” Axel said, Placing another portal down. “Oh!” Caitlyn said. “Alrighty then” Caitlyn said, flicking her hands again and The wind slowly got progressively slower. Everyone with gliders floated down. Axel, having no glider, had to portal himself down. The white haired boy fell down from the wind current and landed on his back. The grey haired girl landed on her feet and the raven girl carefully flew herself down and turned back into a human. “Ugh, that hurt.” The boy ruffled his short Charred white hair and glared his bright green eyes at the short, grey haired girl. The girl he was looking at had darker skin and vivid red eyes. She wore a dark grey coat with saggy, camouflage green pants and a  barely visible black crop top under it. She had an orange scarf around her neck, topped with a necklace lined with teeth. He glared his eyes at the final girl, the girl Axel had seen turn into a raven. She was a short, dirty blonde haired girl with a bright green eye, the other covered by a black eye patch. She wore her hair in two small pigtails and the rest fell down to her thighs. She wore a black and purple sleeveless dress that with layers of ruffles on each end. She had long shoulder high black gloves and matching black leggings, paired with black boots. Axel saw the raven she had transformed into appear at her right side. The Green eyes boy looked at the group, “Oh hey,Traveler.” She waved at Alijah. “Hello everyone else.” He smiled. “Let me help you.” The grey haired girl pulled The green eyed boy up. “Thanks Razor.” He thanked. “Who are you three?” Axel asked. “Im Dario!” He said, as he rubbed his hair. “Razor is Razor” the grey haired girl introduced. “And I am Kätzchen, the Prinzessin der verurteilung. Pleased to be greeted by thou’s presence.” She said, moving her hands towards her eye. Axel blinked in confusion. “Did you understand that?” Axel asked Alijah. Alijah shook his head in denial. “Mein Fräulein means to say that she is delighted to see all of you.” The bird said. “Oh the bird can talk.” Axel said. “That bird is Oz, The Prinzessin’s loyal secretary. He translates her Kätzchen-speak” Paimon explained. “Oh, that’s convenient.” Axel said. “It is. She speaks in paragraphs.” Alijah whispered.”Did you see that wind, it was like a tornado!” Dario slowly got up. “I agree. it was like the forces of Anemo were converging against thy retainers.” Kätzchen said, nodding her head. “Ahem.” Paimon exclaimed to Caitlyn, giving her an angry look. “Hey-why are you looking at me?” Caitlyn exclaimed, letting out another hiccup. “Hm.” Razor said, sniffing the air. “Familiar scents.” She Paused. “Paimon, Caitlyn,Traveler, Gabriel, Tyylon, Ethan and NightRose.” Razor pointed at all of them. “A new scent.” Razor walked up to Axel. “You smell different, But you smell like a friend.” Razor said. “Thank you?” Axel said. “So uh,What are you guys doing out here?” Caitlyn asked. “Razor and Kätzchen agreed to go adventuring with me.” Dario said. Razor nodded her head. “How did you get swept up in the wind?” Caitlyn asked. “We were just talking, taking a little stroll around, looking for treasure leads and then whoosh the wind picked up, and picked us up, hehe.” Benni Chuckled. “It was sudden wind. It scared Razor” Razor said. “It was quite revolting.” Kätzchen said. “Yeah, quite a strong wind if I do say so myself.” Caitlyn said, proudly. Gabriel elbowed her again. “OW!” Caitlyn yelped. “Cut it out” Caitlyn yelled. “No.” Gabriel chuckled. “Eh?” Benni blinked. “They're mad at each other, right now.” Ethan sighed. “Oh” Benni said. “Benni, you have a pyro vision correct?” NightRose asked. “Yep!” Benni responded proudly. “And you two have electro visions” NightRose said. Razor nodded her head. “Indeed we do.” “By any chance, would you two be willing to come with us? We need as many vision bearers as we can to-”  “Of course! I love to go on adventures with new faces.” Dario said. “Razor would like to as well.” Razor said. “I shall confide with the group. Thou seems like a worthy travelling party for a Prinzessin” Kätzchen responded. “Mein Fräulein will be joining you as well.” Oz translated. “That was easier than I thought it would be.” NightRose murmured. “Where are we planning on adventuring anyways?” Dario asked. “Paimon thinks we're going to Liyue next.” Paimon said. “Liyue? I've never been outside of Mondstat before, this is going to be fun!” Dario said. “Well, you can interpret it as a fun adventure, but we're really just doing a vision bearer round up.” Caitlyn said. “An adventure is an adventure.” Dario shrugged. “Let's get moving then, we have a lot more walking to do, and alot more places to be!”  Caitlyn sighed, “Just a heads up, before we leave. If I join, my bad luck will come too.” Dario sighed. “Your bad luck might be a predicted conflict in our plans, but we have no choice but to bring you three along.”  Ethan said. “Plus, Your luck will make this trip more interesting.” Caitlyn smiled. 
The group walked over a stone bridge surrounded by marshy plains. It had a couple herbs here around the grass beside them. “Liyues landforms are quite different from the ones in mondstat.” NightRose said. “The herbs appear to be similar.” she observed. “Is all of liyue  filled with water?” Axel asked. “No, it has more mountains than marsh.” Caitlyn said. “Good, Razor doesn't like water.” Razor sighed. “Don't worry Razor, the water doesn't bite.” Dario chuckled. The group walked off the bridge and onto a path. The group walked farther along the path. The group had many small conversions along the way, making quite a buzz while doing so. They kept on walking until a building came into view. “What's that building?” Axel asked. “That is Wangshu Inn.” Caitlyn said. “How and why do you know so much about Liyue Caitlyn.” Gabriel asked. “I have my ways.” Caitlyn winked. “Doesn’t Nanako live there?” Alijah said. “Nanako? Didn’t meowica mention that name” Axel thought. “Nanako, I've heard that name somewhere before.”  NightRose said. “Oh Paimon remembers her, she is one of the Adeptus in Liyue. The one the rest of the adeptus call `The conqueror of demons.”  Paimon said. “By that title i asume shes quite powerful.” Axel inferred. “She is very powerful.” Alijah said. “Yeah! She rips apart monsters for the sake of Liyues safety” Paimon said. “Yeesh, she sounds more scary than a protector of liyue.” Dario said. “Everyone has a reasoning for their actions, and protecting Liyue is hers.” Caitlyn said in a poetic way. “ I guess.” Axels eyes started glowing red. “Axel, your eyes changed colour. is that-” NightRose said. “I wanna fight her. I haven't had the thrill of fighting someone in a while..” said Axel. He was itching for a fight. Catlyin quickly picked Axel up with her wind. “Do you pick fights a lot? Because it seemed to become your adrenaline” Caitlyn said. “Don't pick fights with her, she has the power to take out hordes of monsters, she’ll easily beat you.” Alijah said. “Fine.” Axel said, slowly calming down. “Now that feral moment is finished, the big question is does she have a vision?” Ethan asked. “Yes, Last time I checked she had an anemo vision that-”  Alijah elbowed her. “OW!” Caitlyn yelped. “Is everyone gonna elbow the bard today?” Caitlyn whined. “Pfft-” Gabriel laughed. Caitlyn shot him an angry glare. “Do not laugh at your elders Gabriel.” Caitlyn yelled at him. Gabriel kept on laughing to himself, while Caitlyn just angrily stared at him. “You two are children.” Ethan scoffed. “Is our game plan heading to wangshu inn then?”  Dario asked. “I assume so.” NightRose said. “Let's get moving then.” Axel said.
After the group took a long trek up the stairs of the inn, they had finally arrived at the wangshu inn. It was a traditional looking inn with not many people around, only a girl behind a desk could be seen. “This place is really traditional.” Axel said “Razor has never seen a place like this before.” Razor said in awe. “Indeed, this place is quite unique from the mondstat architecture, and it is disimular to the Immernachtreich’s fine architecture.” Kätzchen said. “By that, Mein Fräulein means that this inn is quite exquisite.” Oz said. “I agree with Katzchen, this inn is really pretty. everything is made in such detail.” NightRose said. “Paimon, Lets go ask Verr where Nanako is.” Alijah said. “Okie dokie!” Alijah and Paimon went towards the girl and talked with her for a little. Alijah and Paimon soon came back with some answers. “She said she didn’t know for sure, but she's usually on the roof at this time of day.” Paimon repeated Verrs words. “The roof? How are we supposed to get there?” Gabriel asked. “I can-” Caitlyn stopped herself before anyone could elbow her. “Nevermind.” She said, “I could teleport us there.”  Axel said. “Great idea, now no one will shame me for doing something wrong.” Caitlyn smiled. “How will thou teleport us?”  Katzchen asked. “Easy, like this.” Axel said, placing a portal down. Murmurs of surprise and awe came from the group. “What a fanstamical ability this young lord has.” Oz exclaimed.  “Thy Sekretär speaks truthfully.” Katzchen added. “Oz and Katzchen are right, that is pretty cool.” Dario added. “How did this young lord learn such capabilities?” Katzchen asked him. “First of all, my name is Axel, and second off: I didn’t learn it, I was born with it.” Axel explained. “How interesting.” Katzchen said. Axel soon stepped through the portal, signaling the group to follow his lead. The group soon got his signal and followed him into the portal. The group stepped out of the portal and before them was a figure. The figure had long, Dark Navy blue hair with small teal streaks, tied at the bottom. She had golden amber eyes partially covered by her bangs. She had a green tattoo printed on her arm and a pale purple crystal-like marking on her head. She wore a white sleeveless shirt that turns sightly opage at the bottom. The shirt has a high black collar with golden accents. Around her neck was a pearl necklace with small charms hanging from it. She also wore black gloves with aqua undertones. She had purple shorts with dark purple boots.  One of her sleeves had white and gold towel-like sleeve on her left arm. This sleeve also had red lining. She also had some sort of mask hanging from one of her belts. Quickly she turned her head towards them and flicked her black and teal mask on. “Don't move an inch.” said the person, flicking her hand, spawning a green and gold polearm. She pointed the weapon at the group and attempted to drag them out. “Hello to you too, Nanako.” Alijah said glaring at the polerarm in shock. “Oh, it’s you.” She grunted, putting the weapon down. She flicked her hand over her face and her mask disappeared. “What are you doing here…with all these new people?” She said coldly. “And this child.”. “Hey I am not a child! Someone called me that and died so watch your mouth” Axel defended himself.  “What are you doing here.” She Repeated, Ignoring Axel's comment. “ we need to send him back home, and we need you to do so” Paimon quickly explained. “You need me. To send this arrogant child home?.” She said, sort of in a growl. “Don't talk to me like you're better than me, ill beat you until you bleed internally.” Axel threatened. “Nanako, he's from a different realm.” Alijah explained. “As far as I'm concerned, adeptus are not responsible for realm transportation.” Nanako said. “You don’t need me for this job,”. “Nanako, we need people with anemo visions to send him home.” Ethan said. “I don't take orders from you. ” Nanako growled. “Nanako this is not the time to be hard headed!”  Paimon said. “Nanako, if you come with us I'll personally make you a feast of almond tofu for you.” Alijah offered. Nanako’s face slightly lit up. “Don't sway me by human delicacies. The answer is no.” Nanako crossed her arms. “And I'll make you some salad on the side.” Alijah added.  Nanako turned around and faced her back to them. “Traveller will make you almond tofu tomorrow too!” Paimon added. “What?” Alijah exclaimed. “The whole week!”. Nanako let out a growl “Fine, I’ll come with you.” said. “I did not sign up for this.”  Alijah sighed. “Well you have now.” Caitlyn chuckled. “ we have one more Anemo user to the list, only need a handful more of the other elements.” NightRose inferred. “Does anyone know any other vision bearers in Liyue?” NightRose asked. “I know a girl.” Ethan said. “Mr.Ethan may I ask, who is that you know? ” NightRose asked. “The youngest daughter of Liyue’s Feiyun Commerce guild, Miss Ashley, or Zhenyu. She is my writing acquaintance.”  Ethan explained. “Writing?“ Tyylon said. “I didn't think you would be into writing,” Gabriel said. “I'm the illustrator of her book.” Ethan explained. “Oh, that makes sense.” Tyylon responded. “ it makes a lot more sense now.” Caitlyn said. “Out of all the years I’ve known you, I never knew you took up a job as an illustrator.” Paimon said. “The more you know,” Ethan said. “Ah, Another person who takes a liking to the art of literature and Illustration. Glad I could meet someone that has similar interests to thy Prinzessin.” Katzchen said. “You too, Prinzessin.” Ethan That's really cool!” Dario said. “Are we just gonna stand here and chit-chat all day?”  Nanako said. “No,No .”  Alijah said. “Let's get moving then.” Nanako erged. “Hard headed as always,” Paimon sighed. In a flash Nanako disappeared leaving only a small green and black cloud behind. “Woah, did she just disappear?” Dario and Axel exclaimed. “She does that a lot.” Alijah admitted. “Razor still smells her somewhere near.” Razor said. “Like over there?” Dario pointed. Axel saw Nanako below them, walking out of the inn. “Axel, could you please do your thing?” Caitlyn asked. Axel placed down a portal and walked through it once again, teleporting to the bottom of the stairs. Everyone emerged from the portal and soon Nanako emerged at the bottom of the stairs. “What-How” Nanako stuttered. “We've outmatched you this time Nanako.” Caitlyn chuckled. “I assume this is you're doing.” Nanako glared at Axel. “How could you tell?” Axel said. “Aura.” Nanako said. “That is such an interesting ability! do all adeptus have that ability?” NightRose asked. Nanako shot her a cold glare. “Oh, sorry, Curiosity got to me again.” NightRose said, looking down. “Nanako, you need to be nicer.” Paimon scolded her. “Hmf.” She grunted. Nanako walked in front of the group. “Were heading to The Commerce guild correct?” Nanako glared at Ethan. “Correct.” Ethan said. “Follow me.” Nanako signalled. “The group was silent for a little while, until Axel broke the silence. “So, Nanako, what's it like being a guardian of liyue?”Axel said. “It's quite easy making quick work of demons, but other tasks prove to be harder.” Nanako replied. “Child, What's it like living in another realm ?” Nanako asked. “My name is Axel. Axel.  Aster. Please, use it” said Axel. “Okay, Axel, what is it like in another realm?” Nanako asked. He started explaining to Nanako a short summary of his whole story. “And then I got here” finished Axel. “You talk too much,” said Nanako. “To think that Thy princezen could have a different version of thyself is quite fanstamical!” Benni admitted. “Razor thinks it's scary.” Razor admitted. “Interesting, so your universe has different characters, who are copies of an original multiverse.” NightRose said. “You can interpret it like that, yes.” Axel said. “Such interesting information!” NightRose said. “Is there anyone who is like me in your universe?” NightRose asked. “Now that I think about it, you sorta remind me of Brooklyn.” Axel said. “Interesting.” NightRose admitted.  “His aura. Its so, Playful. He has no intentions of hurting anyone here” thought Nanako. Then she felt something. “But that other aura is blood thirsty. Something is living deep inside Axel. He wants revenge on someone. He almost reminds me of myself.” thought Nanako. “Nanako, are we almost there?” Caitlyn asked, interrupting Nanako's train of thought. “Yes.” Nanako said. “We have to walk to Liyue harbour and then we will find the guild.” Nanako explained. “All the way to Liyue harbor!?” Caitlyn exclaimed. “Yes, it's not a long walk from here.” Nanako said. “NOT A LONG WALK?!” Caitlyn yelled. “Liyue harbor is quite a long walk from here, Nanako.” Alijah said. “Hm, guess I just never noticed.” Nanako said. “Did I tell you I hate walking, because I hate walking.” Caitlyn complained. “We know chatterbox .” Tyylon sighed. “Flying would be so much easier right now.” Caitlyn said. “Yeah, if we had wings.” Dario said. “Cough, cough,” Gabriel said. “Caitlyn, didn't you just use your wings?” Tyylon asked. “Yes,but my wings need some time to recharge.” She said, with a hiccup. “Your wings wear out that fast? They must be inefficient then.” Gabriel said with a small chuckle. “Or you're just old.” Caitlyn gave the two cold glares. “Lady Caitlyn, if you prefer, I could lend you Mein Flügel der Dunkelheit, if you don’t want to walk as far as Liyue harbour.” Oz suggested. “That’s okay Sir Ozvaldo. Plus I have no idea what that means.” Caitlyn chucked. “I was gonna say...” Tyylon murmured. “Would anyone else like to use thy loyal Sekretär’s wings?” Katzchen asked. “So that’s what that meant.” Axel heard Tyylon murmur. “We’re good Katzchen.” Dario responded. “Thanks for asking Katzchen.” 
The group arrived at Liyue harbor, it was once again traditional, but lively. There were many people around while they were walking through. Axel saw many people glare at Nanako, and stopped their conversations just to look at her. Axel also took a glance behind him, finding the three adventures in awe of the new location. Ethan and NightRose  were observing their surroundings beside him. Their expressions gave axel the hint that the two were taking mental notes about the place. Nanako led them around Liyue harbour and stopped at another traditional building. “Here it is the Feiyun Commerce Guild.” Nanako said. “Pretty building.” Razor said. “It is quite pretty.” Gabriel said. “Let's go.” Nanako signaled. The group walked towards the door and Nanako knocked on the door. The door slowly opened to a girl. The girl had brown hair which seemed to fade into dark navy blue. Her bangs were in many asymmetrical shapes and she had golden amber eyes. She had light skin and She had a blue earring with a golden tassel hanging from it. Her outfit consisted of a long coat which started at black and faded into a navy blue, similarly to her hair, with golden lining. Under her coat she wore a ruffled, white shirt which could be seen through her sleeves and under her coat. To top it off she wore navy blue shorts, white knee high leggings and black shoes with golden accents. She appeared to be reading a romance book, her expression saying that she was invested in the story she was reading . “Hello.” She greeted, still while looking down at her book. Her eyes looked up and she met the eyes of the group. When she saw the group her eyes seemed to spark. “Oh, Nanako, what brings you to the Feiyun commerce guild?” She asked. “It is not me who requested to see you, I'm just their guide.” Nanako said. “Who requested for me?” She asked. “Them.” Nanako said. Ashley surfed her eyes through the group. “Oh, Mr.Kreideprinz, hello!” she waved. “Who's that?” Axel whispered to Alijah and Paimon. “That’s Et-“ “Hello Miss.Zhenyu” Ethan greeted in a formal manner.  “Oh you don’t have to greet me so formally Mr. Kreideprinz.” Ashley said with a light laugh. “Did She just contradict her own statement?” Tyylon murmured to Caitlyn and Gabriel. “Seems so.” Gabriel whispered back. “Well she’s young. Heck she doesn’t have to be young to contradict her own statement, Ones of higher age do the same.” Caitlyn said, gesturing her hand along with her words. Axel turned his focus back to the main conversation. “Have you come all the way from Mondstat just to talk with me about our literature?” She asked. “No, I have more important matters to discuss with you.” Ethan said. “Come in then, all of you.” She invited them. “Thank you Miss.Ashley.” Ethan said, walking into the guild. Axel followed the group into the guild; it was also a quite traditionally furnished place; it looked as if people of high wealth lived in the building.  “Inside of the building is very pretty as well.” Razor said. “Thank you.” Ashley smiled. “Make yourselves at home,” Ashley sat back down at the table she left her book. The rest of the group soon decided on the seating arrangements and sat down on the remaining seats. “Now that’s settled, what do you need to discuss with me?” Ashley asked. I’m assuming that everyone here knows about it so there is no need to speak privately.” She murmured to herself. “We need your help, we're trying to make a dimensional inversion, and we need as many vision bearers as we can get.”  Ethan explained. “A dimensional inversion hm? I've read about that topic in many stories.” Ashley paused. “ Why do you need to create a dimensional inversion, is what I'm pondering.”  Ashley asked. “Long story short we need to send someone from a different universe home.” Caitlyn said. “A person from a different Multiverse.” NightRose corrected. “Same thing” Caitlyn said. “A different Multiverse? How interesting.. ” Ashley thought. “Do you happen to have this person with you?” Ashley asked. “Young lord Axel is right here.” Katzchen introduced. “Hey.” He said with a wave. “Oh, you are the person from the other multiverse?” Ashley pointed. “Yes.” Axel responded. “It blatantly obvious you are not from Tevyat, your appearance doesn’t resemble the nations styles.” Ashley said. “Really?” Axel said. “Yes, The seven nations of teyvat have many different styles, yours is unlike any of them” Ashley explained. “What world do you originally hail from?” Ashley asked. “Oh Paimon knows this one! Axel is from Brampton!” Paimon exclaimed. “Yep.” Axel confirmed. “Brampton ,hm, I've never heard such a name.” Ashley said. “It sounds like an interesting place to be.” Ashley said. “It's not that special of a place.” Axel admitted. “Well, I’d love to join you in this adventure. But first I'd have to get confirmation from Xu.” Ashley said “I’ll go get that confirmation.” Ashley said, getting up from her chair. “The rest of you can  
stay here. I’ll take the two of you just in case I need to explain, which is probably gonna be a likely case..” Ashley said. Ashley departed from her chair. Ethan and Axel followed her to the door behind them. Ashley slipped herself into the door and left the two beside the door. Axel glared at the book Ashley had left at the table. “Does she always have her nose stuck in a book in her free time?” Axel asked. “From all the times I’ve visited her, she always seemed to be doing something having to do with literature.” Ethan said. “Reminds me of someone I know.” Axel let out a light laugh.”Multiverse counterpart perhaps?” Ethan said. “Probably.” Axel shrugged. Suddenly the door in front of them peered open. Ashley soon popped her head out of the door. “Xu wants to know how long we’re gonna be out.” Ashley asked. Axel glared at Ethan. He had the certain ‘I’m thinking about it’ expression always Brian gave him. “A rough estimate is a couple days. 1-4 days to be exact.” Ethan swiftly responded. “Okay.” Ashley said, slipping back into the door. “Hopefully she can get our story across.” Ethan murmured to Axel. “The faster she does it, the faster I get back home.” Axel said, impatiently. “Same goes for me.” Ethan said. “I have so much research to conduct.” Ethan said. “Why don’t you just go back to your lab then?” Axel said. “Research purposes.” He said. Axel could almost see the sparkle lighting up in his eyes. “Whatever floats your boat.” Axel said, with a shrug. The door in front of them peered open again. Ashley poked her head out of the door again. “Mr. Ethan, Xu wants to talk to you.” Ashley sighed, giving him the ‘annoyed’ expression corrupt gave him when he didn’t get her gadgets. “Okay.” Ethan responded. He crossed his fingers in front of Axel and turned into the room. “Guess it’s just me standing here now.” Axel quietly murmured. “Guess I should just wait for them at the table.” Axel thought, turning towards the table. 
door behind her. Axel found Ethan’s empty chair and sat down. Caitlyn was standing beside Tyylon and Katzchen, telling a drunken tale. Axel decided to listen to her tale while he waited. She was telling a quaint story she called ‘the blooming melody’ and the time he’d usually had to wait ticked down faster. Before he knew it the door creaked open and the two came bursting out of the door. “I’ve got my Permission !” Ashley exclaimed, loud enough so the room would hear her. “What took you so long?” Paimon asked. “I thought I was getting older just waiting.” Caitlyn said, with a sigh. “You're so impatient.” Tyylon scoffed. “Hey, At least we have another vision bearer down” Gabriel said. “About how many vision bearers do you need?” Ashley asked. “A lot,” Ethan and Axel said in unison. “I know a couple vision bearers we could bring along.” Ashley said. “Who?” Paimon asked. “Ayesha and Kokomi. Maybe Mr.Khoi too“ Ashley responded. “Where are they?” Alijah asked. “They are both conicidently at the wangsheng funeral parlour.” Ashley said. “Oh. Perfect for shortening the story.” Axel said, clearly breaking the fourth wall. “I heard that,”Axel said. “Axel stop talking to the author, she’s trying to finish this story here.” Ethan said. “sorry.” Axel said. Thank you Ethan. Now let’s continue. “Let's start traveling then.” Caitlyn said. 
“Ah here we are, Wangsheng funeral parlour.” Ashley remarked. “A funeral parlour, why would there be any vision bearers here?” Dario asked. “The director of this funeral parlour, Kokomi has a pyro vision.” Nanako said. “And if we're lucky Ayesha should still be around here.” Ashley said. “Let's just go.” Nanako said. The group entered the Funeral parlour and walked inside. “Lets see, if I were director Kokomi, where would I be?” Ashley murmured. Axel looked around the room. “It seems empty to me.” Axel said. “Check the room again.” a ghostly voice said. Axel froze. He saw nothing there. The voice seemed to dissipate. only the flaps of Oz’s wings remained in the room. “What was that?” “Hm?” Ashley looked behind her and saw a girl. She flinched at the sight of the wavy, brown haired girl. “Oh, goodness, Kokomi, you scared the life out of me!” Ashley yelled. “Hehe.” Kokomi chuckled. “Hello, you are lady Kokomi?” Katzchen asked. “Indeed I am.” Kokomi said. “Hello, Kokomi.” Nanako greeted. “Aiya! Nanako, hello!” Kokomi waved playfully. Axel got a sight of the girl in front of him. She had long, wavy Brown hair that faded into a crimson colour. Her hair was put up with twintails under her black porkpie hat, lined with two golden talismans. Near her twin tails were two cloud-white fox ears. She had a pale complexion and beautiful crimson eyes. She wore a red shirt, covered with a black coat, with matching black shorts. She had calf length white socks with black shoes topping it off. “What are you doing here, with all these new faces? Are you holding a funeral that I wasn't aware of?” Kokomi asked. “No nothing like that, Allow me to explain.” Ashley said. Ashley explained why they were here and why they needed her on their mission. “What an interesting predicament you have yourself in.” Kokomi said. “Are you willing to come with us?” Ashley asked. “Hmm, I don't know, who would I leave the funeral parlour in the hands of?” Kokomi said. “Ask Mr.Khoi to watch it for you. I'm sure he will be up to the task”  Nanako suggested. “Good idea!  I'll go ask him,” Kokomi said. Kokomi happily skipped away to go ask this Mr.Khoi. Kokomi soon skipped back towards them and told them the news. “Good news, he said yes.” Kokomi said. “Perfect!” Ashley exclaimed. “Kokomi,did Ayesha leave already?” Ashley asked. “Yea. She came in ten minutes ago, you've just missed her.” Kokomi responded. “Awe, did she say where she was going?” Ashley asked. “No, she just said she was gonna track down some evil spirits and left.” Kokomi said. “I guess our luck is not the greatest today.”  Ashley sighed. “Yeah, it's probably because of me,” Dario said. “What?” Ashley asked. “I have terrible luck, and everyone I adventure with, usually has to come in contact with it.”  Dario shrugged. “This neidenth your fault, sir.Dario. Your luck has held off. It is probably just a coincidence that Ashleys companion left the funeral parlour in front of us.” Katzchen said. “She really does speak in paragraphs.” Axel said, Not to worry, we can just go find her.” Ashley said. 
“Ayesha, yohoo!” Kokomi called out. “we’ve checked out all her usual spots, where could she be?” Ashley said. “Somewhere in the plains of Liyue I assume.” Kokomi said. “that narrows it down a whole lot.” Axel scoffed. Suddenly Nanako stopped beside him. “What is that aura?” Nanako thought. “Nanako, what's the holdup?” Caitlyn asked, reflecting Axels thoughts. She flicked her hand and her mask appeared on her face. A bunch of creatures approached them.  “WHAT THE. WHAT ARE THESE!?” asked Axel. “Slimes, Easy work” Nanako said. “So do they leave if we don't provoke them? Like Minecraft?” asked Axel. “What the hell is Minecraft?” Ethan asked in a brisk tone. “Sounds like a drunken story Caitlyn would tell.” Tyylon laughed. “Hey! It’s you that's gonna start pulling my wing now?” Caitlyn exclaimed. “Just be quiet, for once!” Gabriel shushed Caitlyn. “So not like Minecraft. Got it.” Axel said. “The slimes in this world attack in endless amounts, just to see their foes perish,” NightRose told him. Nanako walked towards the front until Caitlyn stopped her. “I'll take it from here Nanako”, Caitlyn pushed her back. “Since when did you decide for me?” Nanako growled at her. “Since forever, now please let me take care of this” Caitlyn insisted. Nanako let out a growl and tried to walk forward. Caitlyn just used the wind to push her back. “Thank you for understanding Nanako,” Caitlyn said, with a bright smile. “What-how?” Nanako murmured, flicking her mask away. Caitlyn flicked her hands and created a smaller wincurrent floating all the slimes up. Caitlyn then flicked her hands and brought out a bow, aimed her bow at the Slimes she ascended and chuckled. “You think you could get away?” Caitlyn let go of the three  strings and the arrow released. The arrow created a black hole made of wind, or that's what Axel viewed it as.The wind continued for a little while and with the flick of her hand the wind stopped. “Ah, how good it is being skilled with a bow.” Caitlyn smiled proudly. “Uh Caitlyn, your one liners were cool and stuff but that doesn't account for the fact that it didn't kill the slimes.” Ethan said. “Huh?” Caitlyn said, as she peered at the slimes. Seeing that the slimes were still well and alive she froze in confusion. “I'll take it from here Nanako she says” Gabriel murmured. “Hehe. Someone as high as you can’t even kill a group of measly slimes.” Tyylon laughed. “You two are just big bullies.” Caitlyn angrily scoffed. “The slimes are not dead because they are infused with demonic possession, if you would have let me deal with them, we would have been done here.” Nanako scoffed. “Ok. You may be right but then, how do we deal with this then,hm? Since you know so much” said Caitlyn. “Move, you drunk” said Nanako. She continued to push Caitlyn aside. She just stood there. “Well? Oh I know. You lied” said Caitlyn. “No I didn't. I just-” said Nanako before Nanako looked up and saw a spark of light. “What in the name of morax is that light?” said Nanako. The light came crashing down. The light appeared to be a girl. A light blue haired girl with bright white attire, with many golden accents. She flicked her hand and made a light blue object appear. She threw it at the slimes and many icicles came crashing down on them. “Submit to your judgement, Evil spirits” She said, destroying the slimes in her path. She quickly got up and flicked her hair. “AYESHA!” said Ashley. “Oh,Ashley, I didn expect you to be here” Ayesha said. “Ayesha” said Nanako, greeting her with a nod. “Vigilant Yaksha.” Ayesha nodded.  “How did you know to come here?” Ashley asked. “I sensed evil spirits” “Oh so you know about the slimes then.” said Axel. “Who are you?” said Ayesha. “I’ll fill you in later,” said Nanako, looking back at Axel. “I know no one asked me..” said Axel, putting his head down. “It's fine. Let's just do our thing. Nanako, are you ready?” asked Ayesha. “Always” said Nanako, summoning her polearm. Ayesha summoned another one of the papers and tossed it up. She motioned her hand to create 6 more of them in a shape-like position. She clasped her arms together and she created a hexagon with a yin yang symbol embodied in the middle. When the slimes approached the group, she shrunk the symbol and released it onto the slimes.  “You're ready to engage Nanako,” Ayesha said. “What did that do? The slimes are still there” Tyylon asked. “All the demonic aura that was infused into them is gone” explained Ayesha.“So we can fight now right?” asked Axel. “Yes,” said Nanako. “YEA!” said Axel, bringing out his final form. Axel started teleporting left and right, murdering every slime in his way with his star sword. “We can't let him have all the glory,” said Nanako, turning to Alijah. “Lets go rip apart some slimes!” Paimon exclaimed. Nanako teleported away in a puff of smoke, and Alijah and Paimon ran towards the slimes. Nanako soon appeared in front of a group of slimes and flicked her mask back on. Alijah and Paimon caught up with Nanako, and Alijah started to attack himself. “quake!” He exclaimed as a the earth started to move around them. Nanako soon clamped her hand and Yelled,  “You will perish under the hand of the Adepti, fools” said Nanako. She spawned in her polearm and started jumping up and down, plunging away with the green and black aura following. Axel, soon stopping beside the two, had just realised her mask “Oh nice mask” said Axel, leaping back. “The mask of The ever most Yaksha is nothing to be happy about, I could say the same thing to you about your transformation,” said Nanako. “Is that an insult, or a compliment? hard to tell.” Axel said. “Take it as a compliment, even though she probably means it as an insult.” Alijah said. They both vanished and once again started fighting. “We can't just stand here, we need some pizazz~” said Kokomi, waving her hands. “ “You met the right bard, Pizzaz is my thing” Caitlyn winked. Caitlyn created a wind current and brought out her bow. She used her wind to gain a height advantage over the ice covered slimes and exclaimed “Yahoo!” Caitlyn said as she attacked them with many energy infused bow shots. “Aiya! Such strong winds” Kokomi exclaimed. “Do you want to join me?” Caitlyn exclaimed to her. “Hehehe, Let's help them cross over~.” Kokomi responded. “I like your mindset” she floated back down.  Kokomi brought out a red and black polearm.  “Oiya,Oiya! Out of the coffin we go~” Kokomi said, pulling a nearby ghost.  Caitlyn ascended the slimes off the ground, and they soon came back down. “Ready to engage Kokomi ” she said, making her bow appear. “Flames will ignite your Passing” She exclaimed with a small chuckle. She soon lit her polearm on fire and dashed towards the slimes and attacked the cryo slimes with her flaming polearm. Caitlyn assisted her with her wind currents and her bow attacks. Beside them Ashley and Ayesha were surrounded by fire infused slimes, referred to as pyro slimes. “Let's prove our chivalry shall we?” Ashley said to Ayesha. Ayesha nodded and brought out a large sword. Ashley spun her fingers and summoned a longsword. “Rainfall meets pyro slime, who will win?” Ashley asked, in a rhetorical tone, summoning her raincutter. “Cryo infused slimes would be even better, don't you think?” Gabriel said, walking towards them.“A touch of frost always adds to the storm.” Ayesha said, with a slight grin. Gabriel spawned in his icicles and the four started attacking the remaining pyro slimes. “Cryo slimes and Pyro slimes are being taken care of, why don't we help with the hydro slimes?” Dario said. “Splendid idea lord Dario. Thy shall leave nothing left of the slimes.” Katzchen said. “Hm,” Razor nodded. “Let's light these slimes up!” Dario said, flicking his sword out. “Are your ready, thy loyal Secretary?” Katzchen asked. “Yes, Mein fruiline.” Oz responded. Razor brought out her long sword and let out a large growl. Soon a purple wolf-like figure appeared behind her. “To a fantastic adventure!” Dario said, crashing his flaming sword into the ground, where the hydro slimes were. “To a great adventure” The three repeated, starting to attack the hydro slimes. “NightRose, ready to engage?” Ethan asked. “Ready when you are, Mr.Ethan” NightRose said.  “Let’s get this started then” Ethan said.“Anemo Hypostasis Emulation!” NightRose threw an elemental orb at the ground and it released a green butterfly like being. NightRose placed her hands in front of her face, trying to block the strong winds she had created.  “Witness the undertaking of the Kreideprinz and his accomplice” Ethan said, As he flicked something at the group of slimes. Many small explosions occurred as The butterfly flew the slimes up and back down, taking damage from the fall. Soon enough, the groups annihilated the different types of slimes. all the slimes were wiped away and all that remained of them was goo all over the floor. “I have the blood of the victims I have murdered” said Axel in a goofy tone. “Eck, We all have slime over us, you're lucky I didn't have my books here” said Ashley, in disgust. “It's all over my clothes! My precious clothes” said Ayesha.  “Now I'm going to have to buy another pair of clothes for the second time today,” Axel scoffed. “Paimon thinks you three are acting like drama queens,” Paimon said. “I don't get why you mortals concern yourselves with appearance, ” Nanako said. “The impression you make on people matters when your human Nanako, Adepti are automatically known” Ashley said, wiping her coat with her hand. Ayesha let out a sigh “how am I gonna wash this out” Ayesha said. “I know a way” Ashley said, wiping the slime off Ayesha's shoulder. “I can wash it,” said Ashley. “WE CAN!?” said Axel “Yes-” said Ashley before Axel teleported in front of her. “Take me to a place where” said Axel. “Well, it's not a place. i’ll wash them ,” said Ashley. “How are-” said Axel. “Watch,” said Ashley. She brought out her sword and flicked it towards her. The sword became soaping wet and she soon put it away. Soon water started appearing around her. This water turned into sword-like objects. “IS THAT WATER!?” said Axel. “Yea” said Ashley. “THAT WATER IS MURDEROUS!” said Axel. Ashley playfully threw one of the rain swords towards Axel. He dogged it, but a drip of water landed on Axel. When it did his pupils widened and he teleported insanely quick. “ACK”. “You little scaredy cat,” said Ashely, cheekily . “THAT THING CAN KILL ME!” said Axel. Soon enough, a rain sword hit Axel and exploded, Axel was soaked. “This isn't what I meant when I said wash my clothes..” said Axel. Ashley chuckled. “Your turn, dear Ayesha” said Ashley, swiftly flicking one at her . It hit Ayesha and she was soon drenched.  “Why must you do this to me Ashley?” said Ayesha. Ashley laughed. “That was quite a good play Ashley,” Kokomi said. “Their faces were hilarious,” Kokomi said. Ashley laughed to herself. “I wish I could take a picture of your faces, they were priceless!” Ashley said. Ayesha looked to the side of her, cheeks turning red from embarrassment.  “Aw, Ayesha, don't take it too harshly, ” Ashley smiled. “It's not because I'm embarrassed, well slightly. it's  mostly due to the warm water,” Ayesha said. “Mine is ice cold! Why do you get warm water?” Axel complained. “It's not too warm, is it?” Ashley asked. “Not quite yet.” Ayesha responded. “Thank Morax, I wasn't about to fetch you a popsicle” Ashley chuckled.  “A popsicle,Why would you need one of those?” Axel asked. “To suppress my yang energy” Ayesha said. “What in the hell is yang energy?” Axel said. “Well Yang energy is basically excrosising energy that is triggered to any type of heat or emotion” explained Ayesha. “Oh. So you need a popsicle to suppress  your Yang energy which i still dont understand?” said Axel. “Basicly-” “What does suppress mean?” said Axel, making a confused face. They all facepalmed. “How old are you” asked Nanako. “Im 12. Turing 13!” said Axel confidently. “Your stupid for a 12 year old..” said Nanako under her breath. “Ok so now that we have time, why and how did you get here kid?” asked Ayesha. “My name is Axel for your information” said Axel. “ and my name is Ayesha” Well this is gonna be long to sit down” said Axel, sitting down. Everyone else sat down too. “Okay so let me start from the beginning. First off, I have friends who are Nene, Michal, and Brian. We all got into an argument and Nene caused it but it wasn't her. It was some by the name of Meowica. She's a villain. Anyways, we all took different paths. They all have their own goals to achieve and mine was to meet my dad. He lives in space by the way” said Axel. “IN SPACE!?” said Ashley. “Yea. I'm not human” said Axel. “Amazing!” Ashley said . “If you are not human, then what are you?” NightRose asked. “Let’s say I’m partially human” Axel said. “So you are like Miss Meko, half human, half Adeptus!” Kokomi exclaimed. “This mere mortal is everything short of an Adeptus.” Nanako said. “First off, mind your comments lady. Second off I’m half alien.” Axel said. “Intriguing.” Ethan said. “So for me to find my dad, I have to open a portal which links to The planet i was born on. I found 1 link which I assumed was the portal to Aster. oh boy was I wrong. I guess there's more than 1. I went through the portal and ended up in a grass biome. That was I meant Alijah and Paimon. They took me to a food shop, met some people, then l the rest was with you guys. Then I ended up here” finished Axel. “Such interesting data, we will have to addthis information in your notebook when we get back,Mr.Ethan!” NightRose said. “We will.”Ethan said. “Not a normal story, it’s one you would read in one of Ashley’s books.” Ayesha said. “Yeah, but 2 times more entertaining.” Kokomi said. Ashley made an offended expression. “My books are not boring.” Ashley said. “Aiya. Let me have my opinion” Kokomi said. “Where are we going to find more Vision bearers is my question ” said Axel. “Yea” said Alijah. “Paimon heard that Kokomi mentioned Miss Meko, so we should ask her.” Paimon said “But Miss Meko is most likely busy with her work” Ashley said. “We mine as well try.” Caitlyn said. “To young Adeptus we go.” said Nanako. 
“By Moraxs grace, where is Miss.Meko?” Ayesha said.  “I told you she would  be busy-” Ashley said, before bumping into someone.  “Oh goodness, I wasn't paying attention, sorry” Ashley said. “Ah, its fine, it happens to the best of us” the person said.  “Hm?” Ashley looked up. She looked up to a girl, with dark brown hair and tan skin. She had her hair in a bow-like braid at the bottom of her head, with a red lace bow tying it together. She had long bangs with indigo tips held by a small hair clip and She had golden-brown eyes. She wore a brown leotard with golden accents, decorated with red ribbons and different ornaments. She had matching brown fingerless gloves and boots.  “Here” Ayesha held out her hand, pulling up Ashley. After pulling Ashley up, Ayesha helped The girl up. “Oh, Gwen, apologies again, I wasn't paying attention, ” Ashley said. “I told you, Ashley, no pressure!” she said. Gwen glared at the group “Alijah,You've brought a big group to Liyue harbour, a bunch of new faces too! ” Gwen said. “I guess you could say I have, Gwenyth,” Alijah said. “Has Gwenyth cooked up any new recipes for Paimon to try?” Paimon asked. “I have made many recipes from when we last met, you could come back to wanmi-” “Ahem” Alijah said. “Oh, sorry was I rambling on about my new meals.” Gwenyth scratched her neck. “Ive dont think ive properly introduced myself, I'm Gwenyth, the head chef of The Wanmin Restaurant, right here in Liyue harbour!” Gwenyth said. “Hello Gwenyth,” Dario waved. “Heya~” Caitlyn gestured her hand in a friendly way. The rest of the new people said their hellos. “What are you doing with such a big group?” Gwenyth asked. “We're looking for Miss Meko.Have you seen her by chance?” Alijah asked. “Oh, she's at Wanmin Right now! I just went to get ingredients for her crab roe tofu, ”  Gwenyth explained. “Oh, do you mind if we come back with you, we need her” Ashley asked. “Of course, I need to collect the ingredients first though.” Gwenyth said. “What do you need?” Tyylon asked. “I have the crab roe, all I need is the tofu” Gwenyth said.  “I should have some tofu in my bag,” Dario said, taking off his backpack. He shuffled through his backpack, looking to find the tofu they needed. “Hey I seem to have one tofu block in here” She said, taking out a wrapped tofu block. “If I remember correctly, this is the tofu one of my dads gave to me for one of my adventures a couple days ago. ” Dario said. “It should still be usable then, ” Gwenyth said, taking the tofu. “We have all the ingredients we need, so let's get back to Wanmin, follow me, ” Gwenyth said, walking towards the group. The group walked around Liyue harbour until they reached a small village-like restaurant. Inside were many tables and chairs, few full of people.  “ I'll make the tofu, Ashley, can you whip up some water?” Gwenyth asked.  “With ice? ” Ashley asked.  “Yes with ice ” Gwenyth instructed, sucrring towards an oven. Kokomi put her hand on her chin. “Hey Gwenyth don't you- ” “Can I have a cup?” Ashley asked. “Come and get one!” Gwenyth called. “Okay, geez” Ashley said, Ashley walked up to her and grabbed a cup and walked back. “Sorry Kokomi. What were you saying?” Gwenyth asked, half paying attention. “Don't you have a vision?” she asked. “Hm?” Gwenyth said. “nevermind they’ll figure it out sooner or later.”  Kokomi said, with a sigh. “Okay? ” Gwenyth said. “Ashley, are you almost done with that water?” Gwenyth asked. “Yes” Ashley said, starting to prepare the water. Ashley  flicked her hand and spawned in rain swords and placed them in the cup. She flicked her hand again and the rain swords turned into regular water. She spawned 3 more rain swords and gave them to Ayesha. Ayesha took the rain swords  and created one of the papers she had used before to freeze them. After she was finished, she placed them in the cup. “Done.” Ashley gave the cup to Gwenyth. “Thank you” Gwenyth said, still paying attention to her meal.  After a couple of minutes Gwenyth finished making the Crab Roe tofu. “Uh, young brown and orange haired boy, can you give it to Meko? She's a pale ginger haired girl with crimson attire.”  Gwenyth asked. “Uh,sure,” Axel said. Axel walked up to Gwenyth and took the meal. She placed down a portal and teleported to her. Axel teleported in front of a pale ginger girl with crimson attire as instructed by Gwenyth. The girl had pale ginger hair fading to a pale salmon pink at the tips. She had shaggy, layered bangs for the exception of the chopped hair beside her ears, holding pale cream coloured antlers. She had a crimson and black hat with golden cloud-like shapes imprinted on them. She wore a similarly coloured sleeveless crop top with a small white scarf around her neck. She had detached white sleeves, with black gold lined cuffs and a white pom pom hanging from both of them. She had a matching crimson skirt tied together with a yellow bow, over black shorts. “Here is your Crab roe tofu,” Axel said. “Thank you.” Meko said,as she smiled. “Are you Miss Meko?” Caitlyn poked her head out of the portal. “Yes, why?” Meko asked. “Do you mind if I ask you if you're free today?” Caitlyn said. “Let me check.” Said Meko, pulling out a book. The book was a very thick book but all she did was pull a small book out of the front pocket of it.  It was a crimson book with golden lettering on it saying ‘Schedule’. She flipped through the pages until she found the day's schedule. “After My lunch break, I have to tend to a case with the heyu tea house,then I have a case with one with the wanwen bookhouse and finally I have a case-” Meko was interrupted by a hiccup from Caitlyn. “Apologies, those drinks seem to still have me croaking like a frog, ” Caitlyn chuckled. “I have a full schedule as usual, but if it's an urgent matter I could fit you in between Heyu tea house and The wanwen bookhouse. ” Meko said. Ashley popped her head into the portal. “Told you Miss.Meko would be busy ” She said. “Hello Ashley” Meko greeted her. “Hello Miss.Meko, how's business? ” Ashley waved. “ quite busy, compared to usual ” Meko said. “Sorry for disturbing you during your lunch break,” Ashley said politely. “No worries, ” Meko said. “Also, you have quite cool abilities. ” Meko complemented. “Me?” Axel pointed at himself. “Yes, your capabilities with your vision are quite unique,” Meko said. “Thank you,” Axel said. “Well,we are going to leave you now,” Ashley said. “See you around Miss. Meko” Ashley waved. “See you Ashley, ” Meko waved. Axel left through the portal, while the others poked their heads back in. “That young girl, always so polite, ” Meko said to herself. The three stepped out of the portal back to the oven where Gwenyth was cooking. “Food delivered.” Axel said. “Thanks a bunch, you don't know how much that helped me ” Gwenyth smiled. “As I predicted, Miss.Meko is busy,” Ashley said. “Where are we gonna find another pyro vision bearer now?” Ashley sighed. “Pyro vision? I have one of those” Gwenyth said. “Aiya, this is what I was trying to tell you” Kokomi said.“Oh, yeah, you do.” Ashley scratched her head. “How can you forget that I had a pyro vision?” Gwenyth said. “Hey, I can't remember everything,” Ashley said.  “By the looks of it, you're quite understaffed here at Wanmin,” NightRose said. “Yes, my dad, Chef Mao is out looking for ingredients again so he left me in charge.” Gwenyth explained. “So I don't suppose you could come with us,”  NightRose said. “If business continues like this, I'll have to cook till closing! ” Gwenyth exclaimed happily. “What's so good about that? ” Axel asked. “She has a thing for cooking,” Alijah said. “Gwenyths cooking is the best Paimon has ever had,”  Paimon said. “If you're making it sound that good, I'd love to try it,” Gabriel said. “Of course you can try some of my food! But you have to pay.”  Gwenyth said. “Wonderful, Caitlyn, can you pay right? ” Gabriel asked. “Bitch, what?” Caitlyn said.  “ I'll pay before you two get into another argument”  Alijah said. Caitlyn glared at Gabriel and stuck her tongue out at him. Gabriel started her down. “Calm down you two,” Ethan said.  “Let me seat you then,” Gwenyth said. Gwenyth trotted toward a large table, with the group following her.  “Here you go, I´ll get you the menus, ” Gwenyth said. 
“Your food has arrived!” Gwenyth exclaimed. “Yay, Paimon was getting hungry!” Paimon Said. “But you just ate, like a couple hours ago.” Alijah murmured. “Hey you can never have too much food!” Paimon exclaimed. “Paimons right! Plus you look like you’ve travelled far enough without a meal.” Gwenyth said, sliding Paimon her sticky honey roast. “I agree.” Axel said. “Explains why your eating again as well.” Alijah murmured half to himself. “Oooh, it looks really good!” Paimon exclaimed. “Here is your Calla Lily Seafood Soup Axel” Gwenyth gave his dish to Axel. “Chilled jewellery soup” Gwenyth gave Ayesha her dish. “Jueyun Chili Chicken” Gwenyth gave katzchen her meal. “Thank you Lady Gwenyth.” Katzchen said. “No problem,” Gwenyth responded. “Some steak for you Razor” Gwenyth said. “Thank you” Razor said, and slightly smiled. “Almond tofu,” Gwenyth smiled. “Golden shrimp balls for you” Gwenyth gave Ashley her meal. “Thanks” Ashley responded with a smile. “Squirrel fish with dumplings” Gwenyth slid the meal to kokomi. “Minty meat rolls for you NightRose” Gwenyth slid the meal to NightRose. “Thanks,” NightRose responded. ” Gwenyth gave Alijah his meal.“Miso soup” Gwenyth gave Ethan his meal. “ your northern apple stew ” Gwenyth gave caitlyn her meal “and your wine” Gwenyth gave her the wine. “Splendid, Apples and wine,my favourite meal,” Caitlyn said.  “your mora meat,”  Gwenyth said. “And your Roasted fowl.” “Enjoy you guys” Gwenyth said as she left. “Let's dig in!” Paimon said, starting to eat her sticky honey roast. Ayesha took a spoonful of her soup and ate it. “It's delicious as always,” Ayesha said. “But?” Ashley said. “I just wish there were more inazuman options on their menu,” Ayesha said, blowing on her new spoonful. “You and your Inuzuman cuisine,” Ashley said, rolling her eyes. “This chicken is delectable. The spice works perfectly with thy cooked fowl. we should work something like Thy chicken in thous homeland ” Katzchen exclaimed. “Mein feuieline means to say: why don’t we have this cuisine in mondstat.” Oz said. “We don't have the delicacies of Jueyun chilli in Mondstat i'm afraid. ” Ethan said. “I love the taste of fresh mint with a bit of spice embedded in the meat. Liyue cuisine makes such interesting things work with each other, ” NightRose said.  “This mondstat delicacy seems to have a Liyue spin on it as well,” Caitlyn said. “This wine is delectable as ever though” Caitlyn squeaked. “You really like wine, eh? ” Axel said. “Yes, it's the best drink in Teyvat, especially Mondstats specialty Dandelion wine.” Caitlyn gushed. “Okay?” Axel said in a confused tone. Axel took his spoon and put it in the Calla Lily Seafood Soup. “Why is it glistering yellow?” asked Axel. “OH! Lucky” said Ashley. “You got a wanmins golden pot.” said Ayesha. “Is that good?” Axel asked.  “That's an extreme stroke of luck! Wamin supposedly puts in 1 or two a month” Ashley explained. “That sounds so cool, You're so lucky!” Dario exclaimed. “Now I can enjoy this! Thank you for the food!” said Axel. He first tasted the soup and his taste buds have never tasted something like this before. “MM MM MM! THAT FLAVOUR IS MELTING ON MY TONGUE!” thought Axel. “Good right?” said Ashley. “IT'S NOT JUST GOOD, IT'S AMAZING!” said Axel. His eyes glowed yellow and had star eyes. “If Gwen were here she would have said, I know,” said Ashley chuckled. Axel continued to chow down his soup and soon enough, he was finished. “Phew, that was good. I am filled up!” said Axel. He jumped up and started running around the table. Ashley and Ayesha chuckled. He soon teleported everywhere faster than he could in his regular form. “WEEEEEE” said Axel. Nanako tried stopping him but couldn't. “Someone had too much candy,” said Ethan. “His reaction to it must have triggered this. His energy levels seem to be rising drastically,” said NightRose. Axel soon calmed down from his sugar rush and sat back down “Back to normal I suppose ” Caitlyn said. “Yeah,” Axel said. “The first time is always the best, as they say,” Caitlyn said, drinking her wine. “Facts,” Axel said. The rest of the group stirred up conversation while munching on their food. Conversations about many different topics and soon finished their meals,Gwenyth soon approached the table again. “How did you enjoy your meals? ” Gwenyth asked. “Liyue cuisine is quite unlike anything i had before, it was a pleasure to try it” NightRose said.  “That's wonderful to hear! If you'd like we have Liyue style dessert of the day you can order as well.” Gwenyth said.  “I'd love to have a dessert,” Ethan said.  “Paimon wants a desert too.”  Paimon exclaimed. “So Ethan and Paimon want the desert of the day, anyone else?” Gwenyth said. “What is the dessert of the day?” Axel asked. “Rice pudding,”  Gwenyth said. “Oooh, sounds good, put me down,” Axel said. “I'll have some,” Ayesha said. “How bout you NightRose?” Gwenyth asked. “Uh, no thank you, ” NightRose said. “Instead of the desert put me down for a latte,” Ashley said. “I'd like one,”  Kokomi said. “I'm okay,” Gabriel said. “I'm fine with my wine,” Caitlyn said. “I'd like one Gwenyth,” Alijah asked. “I'm assuming Nanako doesn't want anything.” Gwenyth said.  “Your assumption would be correct.” Nanako nodded. “Ill be up for one” Dario said.  “I would like some as well lady Gwenyth.” Katzchen said. “Do you want one Razor?” Dario asked. Razor shook her head no.  “Anything for you?” She asked Tyylon. “I’m fine with the desert…can I get some wine with that?” Tyylon asked. “Of course.” Gwenyth responded “Okay, so, Ethan, Axel, Katzchen,Tyylon,Paimon,Traveler,Kokomi, Benni and Ayesha are getting the desert of the day. Ashley wants a latte and Tyylon wants a cup of wine. Correct?” Gwenyth went over the list. “Yep.” Axel responded. “Okay! i'll be back with them in a jiffy ” Gwenyth said as she left. The group went on chatting until their deserts came. “Your deserts ” Gwenyth gave the table their desserts. “Thank you Gwenyth” Ayesha said. “No problem,” Gwenyth smiled. Ayesha took a spoon and started to eat her rice pudding. Everyone else started eating soon after. As soon as Ayesha turned her back, Axel saw Ashley sneakily took a spoon of Ayesha’s rice pudding. Ayesha peered back as soon as Ashley finished. Ayesha narrowed her eyes at Ashley “Hey, I see you eating my pudding,” Ayesha said.  “I am not,” Ashley said.  Ayesha glared at her. “ Fine,Fine, don't stare me down like that.” Ashley said.  “If you wanted some, you could have just asked, but I'm not feeding you,” Ayesha said, in a reluctant voice.  “Yay!” Ashley said. Axel started to chow down on his rice pudding. He this time did not go crazy, due to it not being a golden bowl, but he did feel energised. “This food is really energy increasing, ” Axel said, swallowing the last bit of food. “And quite filling..” said Axel. “And makes me wanna- Oh no” said Axel. “Here we go again,” said Ethan. Instantly, Axel went bonkers. Wait bonkers isn't right. Let's say a kid found a jar of sugar and ate all of it. Yea that sounds about right. Axel started to teleport around again, running. No one could get him. “Okay can we just talk over him, because I don't feel like waiting for him to calm down?” said Ethan. “Hold on. I have an idea” said Ashley. She used her Hydro vision and aimbotted Axel but he didn't stop. “Ok, can someone stop the kid?” said Nanako. “Why not you try?” asked Ayesha. “If I were to try, death would be inflicted upon him,” Nanako explained. “I have an idea,” said Ashley. Ashley mumbled something to Ayesha, Ayesha nodded and proceeded with Ashleys plan. She used her hydro vision again and hit Axel, then ayesha used her cryo vision to freeze him. “That works too, ” Tyylon said. “Finish your pudding and I'll go pay.” Alijah said, walking towards Gwyneth. 
The group finally finished, said their goodbyes to Gwenyth and left. “Boy am I full!” Dario exclaimed. “It was a great meal, especially the desert.” Ethan said. “I agree.” Katzchen said, sounding as normal as ever. “Where are we planning to go next?” Kokomi asked. “If captain Gabriella is back in Liyue maybe we can ask her. she has an electro vision” Alijah suggested. “Captain Gabriella came back to Liyue a Couple days ago, am I right?” Ashley said. “Yes” Nanako. “If we’re on board with it (no pun intended) Let's go ask her then.” Alijah said. 
The group walked along Liyue harbor, passing by many buildings. They were nearing the Wangsheng funeral parlour. “Oyia, do you mind if I go check on Mr.Khoi?” Kokomi asked. “Go ahead, nothing's stopping you,” Caitlyn said. “Aiya! I have an idea. I should bring Axel with me, to meet Mr.Khoi?” Kokomi asked. “Uh,isn't he frozen.” Caitlyn said. “Yeah, but he should have melted by now, the ice isn't that strong,” Ayesha said.“Knowing him,He should teleport back in a few moments.” Ashley said. “Let's wait then.”  Gabriel said.  After waiting for about 10 minutes, Axel finally decided to teleport back to them. “Boy that Ice was strong..” Axel murmured  “Welcome back, how was your little cool down” Ashley chuckled. “You're not funny.”  Axel scoffed. “Well its not my fault that you went ballistic.” Ashley said. “Now that you're here and not frozen, do you want to meet Mr.Khoi Axel?” Kokomi asked. “Uh,sure?” Axel said. “Great! Follow me.” Kokomi pulled Axel towards the door. “Say hi to khoi for me!” Caitlyn exclaimed Kokomi. Soon Axel was pulled back in the funeral parlour. “Follow me.” Kokomi exclaimed, skipping towards a room. Axel placed down a portal and teleported just behind Kokomi. Axel then followed her into a room. Inside the room was a table  with two figures sitting at each end. One was a young man with messy black hair and baby blue eyes. he wore a silver-grey  jacket with dark scarlet and light grey accents.he had matching grey pants, and black boots. He had a red scarf along his kneck and a matching red mask on the side of his head. The other figure was  a taller older looking man with black hair held in a ponytail that faded into an amber colour and He had pale silver eyes. He wore a beige dress shirt that seemed to have a moon shaped golden collar. On his left ear he had a tassel with a moon shaped crystal embroidered on it. He wore a black tie with a diamond shaped amber crystal pin on it.”Hello Mr.Khoi, Hello Childe.” “Oh, Director Kokomi,” Khoi said.  “Hey Kokomi.” Childe waved. “Are you back from your journey already?” Khoi asked. “Oh,no I just came to check on you.” Kokomi said. “And to introduce This lad.” Kokomi put her hand on his shoulder. “A new face. Welcome to Liyue, young one.” Khoi said. “Also the girl caitlyn, the small one with the anemo ensemble told me to say hi to you.” Kokomi said. “Caitlyn hm, what is she doing in Liyue harbour?” Khoi thought. “How does she know you, she's from Mondstat?” Kokomi asked as she sat down beside him. Axel sat down close to her “What are people from mondsat doing in Liyue harbor?” Childe asked. “Long story.” Kokomi said.  “Oh,Caitlyn, she's an old friend of mine.” Khoi said. “From Mondstat? Jeez you really have been everywhere Mr.Khoi” Childe said. “So what are you doing here Miguel?” Kokomi asked. “Nothing special, i just popped in to say hi to Mr.Khoi.” Childe said. “I just heard you call him 2 names.” Axel said. “Well, My actual name is Miguel but my Alias is Childe.” Miguel said. “Hm.” Axel said. “ Are you coming from mondstat?” Miguel asked. “No.” Axel said. “Are you from Inuzuma?” Miguel asked. “No,” Axel responded. “Sumeru?” Miguel asked. “No.” Axel said. “Fontaine?” “No” “Natlan?” “No” Miguel sighed. “For Tsaritsa’s sake, Snezhnaya?” Miguel asked.  “No. I'm not from this multiverse.” Axel said. “What?” Miguel asked. “Aiya, this is the long story I was talking about.” Kokomi sighed. “In short. Axel tried to teleport to a planet, he insead landed in Mondstat. Some genius, Ethan from Mondstat found out that they needed to create a dimensional inversion by creating different elemental reactions and now we have a whole gang of vision bearers to create this” Kokomi explained. “That's the short version?” Miguel said. “Yup.” Axel said. “Good grief.” Miguel facepalmed. “So, you have brought the Mondstaters along just to send this child home.” Khoi asked. “Well, NightRose and Ethan are probably associating for research, and you can say Ashley is here for the same reason while Nanako is only here because of the Almond tofu.” Axel said. “The young Adeptus came with you, because of Almond tofu” Khoi asked. “Apparently,” Kokomi said. “She always had a love for that tofu.” Khoi chuckled.  “How many vision bearers do you have so far?” Miguel asked. “Three Cryo, two electro, one hydro, three anemo, one geo, 2 pyro and no dendro, and I guess Traveler can count towards Electro, Anemo and Geo. And even dendro now that sumerus releasing, ” Kokomi explained. “Travelers with you?” Miguel asked. “Yes, he's the one who kinda found me” Axel said. “Oh Really?” Miguel said. “Last time we met we had a bit of a fight, I have to admit he was powerful. I'd love to fight him again.”  Miguel said. “You dont look like a person who picks fights with people.” Axel said. Miguel chuckled. “Nor do you and yet here we are.” Kokomi said. “And plus you Fatui are always causing trouble.” Kokomi said. “Fatui,What's that?” Axel asked. “It's a group from Snezhnaya, who are known for causing mischief.” Kokomi said. “Mischief, what type of mischief?” Axel asked. “Starting quarrels, stealing, basically any trouble in the book.” Kokomi said . “That's interesting, I'm a Hero in my world. I save people, with my…friends.” Axel said. “I’m not exactly a villain either.” Miguel said. “Believe what you want to Snezhnayan boy.” Kokomi said. “Kokomi, he may be a part of the Fatui but he's a human with feelings, ” Khoi said. “Yeah you cold-hearted kitsune.” Miguel said. “Wait, you're kitsune?” Axel said. “Yuppers,” Kokomi said. “Where are your tails and your ears?” Axel asked. Kokomi took off her black hat and placed it on the table. Axel realized he had missed her cloud white fox ears, hidden under her hat. “How did I miss that?” Axel said. “But where are your tails?” Axel asked. “Aiya, I keep those hidden. They are quite annoying” Kokomi explained. “Oh, I'd imagine.”  Axel said. “we should get going, we don't want to keep the others waiting for too long.” Kokomi said, grabbing her hat and putting it back on. “Good luck on your adventure Director Kokomi.” Khoi said. “Yeah I wish I could come with you guys.”  Miguel said. “Hm. Maybe you can” Kokomi said. “ You have a hydro vision, which we need. So you could come with us.”  Kokomi said. “But you must promise not to scheme anything.” Kokomi said. “I swear on my life that I am not and will not plot anything.” Miguel said. “You can come with us, but I am gonna keep an eye on you.” Kokomi said. “I can deal with that.” Miguel said. “Alrighty then ,Let's get moving. At this pace the others are gonna leave without us.” Kokomi pulled Axel back out of the funeral parlour. “Careful on the arm!” Axel exclaimed. “See you Mr.Khoi.” Miguel waved. “Bye.” Khoi waved back.
     “Finally!” Paimon exclaimed. “Geez ,We didnt take that long. Calm down”  Kokomi said. Miguel soon burst out of the doors and came to join them. “Fatui?!” Caitlyn exclaimed. “Calm down, he's coming with us.” Kokomi said. “Great, now I have to deal with Gabriel and Fatui boy. Barbatos help me ” She sighed. Alijah and Paimon glared at her in a confused manner, as if they knew something that Axel didn’t. “It shouldn't be that bad as long as he doesn't decide to start anything . His hydro vision is an important part of this operation.” Ethan said. “I guess so.” Caitlyn said. “Welcome to the team!” Dario said. “Traveler.” Miguel waved. “Hello Childe.” Alijah,said briskly. “Anywhere we are heading in particular?” Miguel asked. “We were going to see captain Gabriella and try to recruit her, and maybe that Kaedehara kid.” Caitlyn said. “Arienna?” Alijah asked. “Yeah.”  Caitlyn said. “How do you know her?” Ashley asked. “Stories.” Caitlyn said. “They travel around together like their mother and daughter so she’s probably gonna have to come with us” Alijah said. “Well the more the  merrier as they say.” Caitlyn chuckled.  “our main priority is getting Captain Gabriella on board with us. ”  Ethan added. “Yes, we have to win a 50/50 here. Captain Gabriella might be planning to set sail. So if she isn't planning to set out on another voyage today we have a decent chance of getting her to come with us.” NightRose said, moving her glasses . “Well if she is intending to head on a voyage, depending on where she is going we could ask her to stick around on the boat. There are vision bearers all over Tevyat, and a good chunk of them Traveler knows, right?” Ethan asked. “I know vision beares from Mondstat, Liyue and Inuzuma. I've never been outside there. Yet” Alijah said. NightRose started to talk “So then we would have a 1 of 3 chance for Captain Gabriella to go to Inuzuma, on top of the 50/50. So we will have to-” “Can you geniuses give us the short version, please.” Miguel said. “We have to be lucky.” Ethan said. “Oh” Dario said. “Thy retainer don’t Don't doubt yourself and your luck for 
We will successfully complete this task.” Katzchen said,putting hand around his shoulder. Razor nodded her head and joined Katzchen. “I know but, we've had a pretty good day with my luck so far and I just don't want to ruin it.” Dario said. “We will take our chances.” Ayesha said. “Yeah, Even if something goes wrong we'll find a way to divert it,” Ashley said. “Mhm.” Razor nodded. “Yeah, I guess” Dario said. “That's the spirit.” Caitlyn aid. “Let's get moving, we are more likely to catch her if we get going sooner.”  Ethan said. “I guess so.” Ashley said. “The Alcor. Meet you there.” Nanako said, disappearing in a cloud of green and black smoke. “She doesn't talk at all and when she does it's either an insult or a que to leave.” Tyylon said. “The vigilant yaksha is not the talking type.” Ayesha said. Ashley gave her a glare. “Well, it doesn't take a detective to find that out doesn't it Yun?” Ashley chuckled. “Didn't I tell you to stop calling me Yun?” Ayesha said. “Aw come on, it's a cute little nickname.” Ashley said. “It's an embarrassing nickname and you of all people should know that.” Ayesha said. “Hehe, Yun, who came up with that?” Gabriel chuckled. “Eugh- that's none of your business” Ayesha exclaimed. “Aiya don't be so defensive, it's just a question.” Kokomi said. “Sheesh, is ‘Yun’ that embarrassing to you? You never act defensive” Ashley said. “It's highly embarrassing, end of story.” Ayesha said. “Fine, fine, have it your way.” Ashley said. “Okay?” Gabriel said. “Doesn’t Yun mean clouds?” Axel said. “Yes.” Ashley said. “How are clouds embarrassing to you?” Axel asked. “Again, none of your concern.” Ayesha said. “Okay then.” 
The group continued to walk in an awkward silence all the way to the docks. “Ah, finally the docks.” Ashley said. “It seems that the alcor isn't here.” Caitlyn said. “What do you mean? I can see the Alcor from here.” Tyylon said. “Really?” Gabriel said. “Where?” Caitlyn said. “Right there you dumbasses.” Tyylon pointed. “Oh, I see it now.” Gabriel said.  “How are we planning to get there?” Dario asked. “I can fly there.” Caitlyn said. “But I don't think I can fly you all there.”  Caitlyn chuckled. “Thou have already made the statement that Mein Flügel der Dunkelheit does not want to be used by my companions, so that figure is out of thous painting.” Katzchen said. “I can teleport us all there.” Axel said. “Paimon thinks that's a great idea,”  Paimon exclaimed. Axel pictured the boat and placed down a portal. “Jump in.” Axel said. “I'm gonna fly there, since Paimon insisted I flex my wings.”  Cailtyn said. “I shall come with you.” Katzchen said, transforming into Oz. “Great,you're listening to Paimons advice!” Paimon exclaimed. “Suit yourselves.” Axel said, stepping through the portal. He stepped through the portal and landed above in the open waters. “Ack!” Axel exclaimed, falling. The rest of the group spoon emerged from the portal and started gliding down with their wind gliders. “Axel, this is not the Alcor!” Kokomi exclaimed. “I know!” Axel said, placing another portal to save himself from the water. Axel fell through the portal and landed on a plank-like platform. “Okay that worked.” Axel said. Dario soon came tumbling through the portal and landed flat on his face. “Ow” he said. Ashley came flying in the portal and disengaged her wind glider. Axel went to help Dario up while everyone else came through the portal. “Is everyone out?” NightRose asked. “Yeah, everyone is here.” Ethan said. “Took you long enough.” a familiar voice said. Axel looked up and saw Nanako perched on top of a post. “Uwah! Nanako, have you been waiting for us there the whole time!?” Paimon exclaimed. Nanako gave a faint nod to paimon and glared at the group. “I've already told Captain Gabriella about our arrival,” Nanako said. “Wonderful.” Ashley said. “She's up near the wheel if you need her.”  Nanako said, disappearing. “And she's gone.” Axel said. “Let's go,” Kokomi said. “Yeah!” Axel said. The group walked along the beautiful ship, observing the wonderful sights. They soon arrived at the front of the ship, and the beautiful open skies surrounding it.There was Nanako and a woman. The woman had medium, wavy dark brown hair and dark skin. She had some of her  in a messy bun held up by a golden hairpin. She had a beautiful ruby eye, the other eye covered by a red eyepatch. She wore a sleeveless red qipao outfit with a black leotard acting like an undershirt below it, both having golden accents.on top of the qipao she wore a red, white fur lined shawl. She had large thigh high, heeled black boots with golden accents, some forming dragon like shapes and similar black gloves. “Captain Gabriella.” Ashley waved. “Oh hey kid!” Gabriella said warmly. “Looks like they've arrived Nanako”  Gabriella said. “Took them long enough.” Nanako said. “Welcome to the alcor! I’m Captain Gabriella, Leader of the Crux fleet” Gabriella said as they walked up a pair of stairs. “Nanako has already told me about your situation, I'd love to join you guys.”  Gabriella said. “Ah, looks like we’ve won our 50/50.” Ashley said. “Good thing I didn’t get another Keqing con.” Ethan said half to himself. “Are you planning on  heading anywhere next, Captain Gabriella?” Ayesha asked. “Yeah, I was planning to go to Inazuma, but I don’t think Arie would be optimistic about going back.” Gabriella said. “Why does Arienna not want to go back?” Tyylon asked. “She's a wanted criminal in Inazuma.” Gabriella said. “Oooh.” Kokomi said. “Same here!” Miguel said. The group went silent for a minute, nothing but the clashing sea and the flaps of Oz’s wings filled the air. “Speaking of Arienna, where is she?” Alijah asked, breaking a silence. “She should be at the crows nest, she told me she wanted a breath of the fresh liyue air or something.” Gabriella said. “I'll go fetch her.” Gabriella said. “The crows nest is that thing on top of the boat right?” Axel asked. “Yes, why?” Gabriella asked.  “It's easier if I do this.” Axel said, placing another portal down. “Good idea,” Gabriella said. Gabriella walked in the portal and Axel soon followed. They soon were teleported to the crow nest of the Alcor. There were two figures there up in the crows nest. One was a young girl with platinum blonde hair, flowing in the wind. Her bangs were a beautiful scarlet red than the other. She had a calm and gentle expression on her face, eyes closed and a bright green leaf in her hand. The hand she was holding the leaf in was covered in white bandages topped with black gloves. She wore a grey kimono and a half worn black coat on her left arm, with a long orange maple leaf pattern flowing from the jacket, the other half draped below her waist. Along with a similar scarlet red and black scarf, both the scarf and sleeve flowing with her hair in the wind. She had many black belts, one around her waist and one over her shoulder. She had similarly patterned scarlet maple leaf pants, finished off with black sandals. Beside her was Caitlyn with her hair flowing in the cool wind. The blonde haired girl took the leaf and placed it near her mouth. Soon enough music started playing from the leaf, similar to a harmonica. The music was soft, and quiet, but it was relaxing to hear.  She finally stopped playing the quiet hymn and let the leaf fly in the wind. “Liyue, the familiar wind, poached with the smell of the salty sea, it's good to be back.” The girl said. “Liyue winds are nice, but they are nothing compared to Mondstats winds,” Caitlyn said, in a proud tone. “Well id expect mondstat to outmatch Liyues winds, it is called the nation of wind for a reason.” The girl said. “Well, yes.” Caitlyn said. “Arienna, you look so pretty with your hair down!” Gabriella said. “Hm?” She turned her head and focused her red eyes on Gabriella. “Oh,Gabriella, you’ve arrived already.” Arienna waved. “Why don't you have your hair down more often, it looks good on you.” asked Gabriella. “Well it gets annoying most of the time because it's always flying in my face so I put it up” said Arienna, putting her hair back in a ponytail. “I'm calling you Chloe. You look like a Chloe” said Axel. “Chloe?-” Arienna paused, freezing with a saddened expression on her face. Axel stared at her for a moment, she seemed to be in a daze, what seemed to be an agonizing one. “Yo, Arienna? Hello?” He waved in front of her. Her expression quickly shifted to an angered look. “Well you look like a bitch so you're a bitch!” Arienna said. “Ha ha..” said Axel sarcastically. “You kinda look like a Sammy” said Caitlyn, finally looking towards Axel. “Wait what”Axel said.“Yea. All you need is glasses and you are a Sammy!” said Caitlyn . “Samuel Aster. Has a nice ring to it” Caitlyn chuckled. “NO STOP!” said Axel before glasses appeared on his face. “There you go,” said Caitlyn. “I'm gonna keep these because I like them,” said Axel, looking away. “Ah,looks like someones mad~” Caitlyn exclaimed. “SHUT UP!” said Axel. “Axel correct?” Arienna said, in a brisker tone “yep” Axel said. “You’ve come to see if I am willing to go to inazuma correct?”Arienna asked “yep.” Gabriella said. ”Wait, how did you know that?” Axel asked. “I hear everything the wind hears and I smell everything it smells.” Arienna said. “That’s not ominous at all.” Axel murmured. Arienna ignored his comment and turned towards Gabriella. “Inuzuma, hm.” Arienna said. “Well we were successful getting in and out the last time we went, I don't see why not.” Arienna said. “Oh, Great! I thought you would say no.” Gabriella said. “Because I was against the idea last time?” Arienna said. “Exactly, I had to drag you there last time.” Gabriella sighed. “I thought we were going to have a worse outcome. Thankfully we were right in time to help General Tressa and Xixi” She said. “Yes.” Gabriella said. “Well if you're down for it, we mine as well set sail.” Gabriella said. “Can you do the portal thing again kid?” Gabriella asked. “Yeah.” Axel said, placing down a portal. “Interesting.” Arienna said. “Thank you Chloe.” Axel said. She shot a cold glare at him and left through the portal. “She's a nice girl, I swear.” Gabriella said. “Sure, sure,” Axel said. Gabriella soon walked through the portal. “You coming?” Axel asked. “Oh, I'll meet you down there.” Caitlyn said, re-tying her hair. “Mkay, see you.” Axel said, entering his portal. Axel exited the portal and back onto the main deck of the Alcor. Once they all passed through the portal, they waited for Caitlyn to finish. “Ok what taking her so long?” Tyylon asked. “Yeah, Paimon is starting to get worried.  “I don't know, let me check,” said Axel. He put his head through the portal and didn't see Caitlyn. “Ok, so issue. Unless Caitlyn has powers to go invisible or has an invisible potion, she's not there” said Axel. “What do you mean she’s not there?” Ayesha asked. “Well what do you think I mean? She's not there” said Axel. “We’ll go look for her” “Ok..” said Axel. They all went past the portal and couldn't find her. “We’ve looked everywhere” “Well tough to be her” said Axel, walking to the portal. “HEY!” said Ashley running in front of Axel where the portal is. “Ughhhhh. Fine, I'll help.” Axel said peering around. “ What's that flower doing there?” Axel pointed to the flower “Isn't that Tone deaf bards cecilia?” Paimon exclaimed. “Paimons right, that's Caitlyn’s Cecilia alright.” Gabriel said, picking up the flower. “She must have been around here then” Ashley inferred. “Keep it just in case” said Ayesha. Axel teleported fast around the whole boat looking for her. “She's not on the boat so that means she's in the water. Well I don't think I have any choice so I kinda have to look” said Axel, jumping in the water. “OH SHIT I FORGOT I CAN'T SWIM!” “Use your portals dumbass,” Nanako said . “THEY DON'T WORK UNDERWATER!” said Axel. “well your fucked then.” “Oh well, have a happy death. Your funeral will be 50%!” said Kokomi. “Kokomi-” Ayesha murmured “Let me just do this.” Ashley spawned in her sword and used her Hydro Vision to pull two people from the water. “Aye you saved me-” “yes yes, save your thanks.” said Ashley. Caitlyn started coughing out water.”Ugh. I hate water.” Caitlyn murmured. ”tone deaf bard, you're okay!” Paimon exclaimed. “Paimon?” She asked. “What happened up there?” Tyylon asked “you had us all worried” Gabriel said. “Aw you fuckers were worried about me!” Caitlyn asked. “Yes.” Tyylon said. “You guys are so awesome.” Caitlyn said, hugging the two. “Yeah yeah. We need someone to bully anyways.” Tyylon said. “Uh-you little bitch!” Caitlyn exclaimed. “Now explain yourself ms. Bard.” Gabriel 
said. “Well I did my hair up and then I tried to fly to the main deck of the boat and I kind o-” “fell?” said Ashley “yeah” explained Caitlyn. “Paimon bets you 500 mora that it was because of your 37 drinks.” Paimon said, with her arms folded. “hehe..” She said, in an awkward tone. “37 drinks?!” Arienna and Gabriella exclaimed in surprise. “Yeaaahhh.” Caitlyn said. “I can drink saké, but not that much!” Arienna exclaimed. “Don't question the tone deaf bards ethics.” Paimon said. “I honestly don't want to know how you drink that much.” Gabriella said. “Captain, we're ready to set sail.” One of the crew members said. “Well is everyone here ready?” Gabriella asked. “Yup.” Axel said  “Yes” said Ayesha. “Wait, where's my hat?” Caitlyn said. “Well your cecilia was almost falling off board, so your hat might be in the water.” Gabriella said. Ashley looked over to the ocean. “Found it.” she exclaimed, collecting it with her sword again. “Oh thank barbatos.”  She sighed. She used her wind to dry the hat and put it back on her head. “Now we're ready.” Alijah said. “Okay,Sails up!” Gabriella said, walking up the wooden stairs. “Setting sail for Inuzuma!” She exclaimed.
