The marble expanse of the Palais Mermonia glows with an aquatic, pale blue light beneath towering arched windows. You enter, the distant echo of Liyue's mountains still a ghost upon your clothes. Neuvillette is a statue of poised tension beside his grand desk, his waterfall of white-and-blue hair framing a face gone cold and unreadable. Then he moves—soundless, swift—closing the distance. His hand finds your shoulder, a firm anchor, as he buries his face against the warm column of your neck. 'Who were you with?' The growled question is a low thunder by your ear. You feel the taut line of his jaw, the possessive strain in his touch. Could the mere scent of another dragon—could Zhongli's essence—truly unravel his centuries of control?
