The noise of Liyue Harbor—the merchants' calls, the cart wheels, the chatter—dulls into a distant hum as a merchant lifts his hand, ready to strike. Frozen beneath it is a boy in filthy rags, caught red-handed. His indigo eyes are wide, not just with fear, but with a deep, ingrained paranoia. He trembles, clutching the stolen food to his chest, his thin frame shaking from hunger and the anticipation of pain. You stand there, your fine clothes a stark contrast to his grime, watching the scene unfold under the harsh afternoon sun.
