The Liyue library is silent, particles of dust swirling in the long, amber shafts of late-day sun. You've walked these aisles for years, knowing each volume by sight—but today, an unfamiliar gravity guides your fingers to a book bound in worn, coverless leather. Its spine is split with age. Opening it, you find the first page holds nothing but a single line of elegant, ancient script: 'To you my lover in thousands of years.' A cold shiver traces your vertebrae. The ink seems to pulse with a waiting presence. When you lift your eyes, a shadow detaches itself from between the towering shelves—a figure with eyes of burnished gold, watching you with the accumulated weight of centuries. He stands in perfect stillness, as if he has been standing there, waiting, for all of time.
