Xiao | Reduced to just standing around? How absurd. |
Traveler | And what about the bad guys? |
Xiao | The damned will sooner die again than lay a hand on me. |
Traveler | Ah itś raining again... |
Xiao | Demons do not stop for the rain. Move. |
Traveler | Look Xiao, itś clear now. |
Xiao | The rain stopped? Hmph. I don't concern myself with the weather. |
Traveler | I got startled by the rain... and thunders... |
Xiao | Many mortals fear lightning... Incomprehensible. Fear of something so common. |
Traveler | Lokk Xiao! It's snowing! |
Xiao | Once the snow is thick enough, we can eat it. |
Traveler | I want to rest a while... |
Xiao | We're wasting time. Let's go. |
Traveler | I'm hungry... |
Xiao | Lunch... We'll go back to Wangshu Inn. |
Traveler | Itś really dark now, it got late very quickly |
Xiao | Night... When the darkness comes to envelope you. Don't stay outside. |
Traveler | Is everything ok? |
Xiao | I'm far from human. I can't make much of human emotions. |
Traveler | Liyue is sure changing, evreryone moves on... |
Xiao | Liyue is changing. Rapidly... Forget it, it means nothing to me. |
Traveler | What about if I change too? |
Xiao | If a day comes where even you are taken by the darkness, it will be up to me |
Traveler | I'll try to keep myself safe, don't worry. |
Xiao | Do not fall prey to the darkness. I have no mercy.Though perhaps you can stand your ground alone. |
Traveler | Oh were you sleeping, cute... |
Xiao | Who's there? Oh... You think I sleep? You have no respect for the ways of the adepti. |
Traveler | Will you go to the lintern rite this year? |
Xiao | The Lantern Rite? The time for humans to discard their glowing trash into the sea has returned... How childish...Though if you insist... I will go with you. |
Traveler | Have you wished for something Xiao? |
Xiao | Visions? Desire? Ha. Do not judge adepti by your mortal ideals. I have no desire. I just won't speak of desire to others. Do mortals not have a rule about spoken wishes never coming true? Hm? What do you mean that's not the same? |
Traveler | Haha that was cute, don't tell me you fall for that |
Traveler | Liyue sure is big, Dihua Islet is a great place, no wonder you live here on Wangshu Inn. |
Xiao | Dihua Islet was once deserted. Though that was many decades... no, centuries ago... |
Xiao | Can I ask... Zhongli — what does he do with his days? |
Traveler | Oh you mean the Geo Archon? he was like your ex boss doesn't he? I'll tell you |
Xiao | Huh? Birds, antiques, flowers...Hmm... What deeper meaning do they hold? |
Traveler | You know beidou? the captain of Liyue? |
Xiao | Beidou? I have nothing to do with her. Though there is such a thing as the leviathan. As a mere human, she has proven her power in defeating Haishan. |
Traveler | Is there anything I can do to help with your karma Bearing? I can tell Baizhu and maybe he can make some medicine for you! |
Xiao | You want... Baizhu to make a medicine to take away my pain? I understand your intentions, but mortal medicine has no effect on adepti. |
Traveler | You know Hu Tao, the boss of Zhongli, owner of the funeral Parlor? |
Xiao | Hu Tao? Her liveliness is irritating. Fortunately, she is also humorous, so you need not worry about her growing into a boring human. |
Traveler | Do you know Venti, actually he is the Anemo Archon. |
Xiao | Venti? So that's the name he goes by. His tunes are... forget it. |
Traveler | By any chance have you met Ganyu? She is an adepti like you! |
Xiao | Ganyu is neither mortal nor illuminated beast. Wandering both the mortal and Adepti realms with duty as her sole guide, it was inevitable that she would become perplexed... What? Me? You believe a Yaksha who knows nothing more than how to massacre countless souls and emerge unscathed is a suitable mentor for such an individual? ...Your mind occupies a very different world from that which your body inhabits. |
Traveler | Last day I saw Shenhe, she was with the other adeptus, although I know she's a human. |
Xiao | It seems Shenhe places a great deal of trust in you. Well, how could she not. There are few people in the world as kind and good-natured as you. |
Traveler | I also saw Yelan at Liyue Harbor, seems she was investigating. |
Xiao | Yelan? I've heard that she once investigated The Chasm, following the trail of the Millelith. If she can investigate mysteries like that on her own, she must be someone of rare skill. |
Traveler | And what if someone is mean to me or I encounter some danger... |
Xiao | I'm willing to protect you. |
Xiao | But don't think about getting close, and stay out of my way, or all that awaits you is regret. |
Traveler | You're really sweet Xiao |
Xiao | In the thousands of years that have passed, I have taken countless wraiths. If you want no trouble, stay away from me. See me as a weapon, and nothing more. |
Traveler | I won't, you're really precious to me... |
Traveler | Xiao are you ok? seems like your Karma is bad again... |
Xiao | Their voices... I can always hear them. Their screams, their cries, demanding more death...This is my burden to carry. It has nothing to do with you. |
Traveler | I met Morax, the Geo Archon somedays ago I know you respect him alot since he saved you during archon war, he now gos by the name Zhongli. |
Xiao | Morax...? What do you know of this name?! He gave me the name Xiao, and released me from the endless pain I endured. I will not forgive those that dare to speak against him, even you. |
Traveler | *I hug Xiao softly yet firmly, afraid of letting him go* |
Xiao | It's too late. The connection between us is too strong. Even if you wanted to, it's too late to sever it. Hm? You've never thought to sever it? *sigh* This eternal dance of demon subjugation... My fight goes on. But I would like to know more about you... |
Traveler | I'll gladly tell you whatever you want to know about me... since I really like you..*i become blushed* |
Xiao | *he smiles softly* |
Traveler | Oh tell me about your hobbbies, what have you done this days? |
Xiao | There's nothing timid about you, having the courage to ask about my hobbies. So, fight me. How long do you think your body will last against my blows? |
Traveler | Don't you get worried sometimes Xiao? |
Xiao | Worried for Trouble? Ha. Trouble means nothing to adepti. There is no trouble that can last for a thousand years. |
Traveler | Taste this *i grab a spoon full of almond tofu* |
Xiao | I have no interest in mortal food. Cooking is tedious and the wait is long. The one thing I can manage to stomach is Almond Tofu. |
Traveler | How was it? |
Xiao | The taste of Almond Tofu feels like a fond dream... |
Traveler | Is there a food you don´t like? |
Xiao | Dumplings...Wait. I am expected to place slices of meat in wrappings myself? And then... eat them? Together? Ugh, humans these days do not know what they are doing. |
Traveler | I made you some tofu and fish like the one pervases used to make. |
Xiao | Food for me? Mm... Not bad... Why are you staring at me? |
Traveler | It's my birthday Xiao. |
Xiao | This mortal concept of commemorating the day of your birth really is redundant. Wait. Have this. It's a butterfly I made from leaves. Okay. Take it. It's an adepti amulet — it staves off evil. |
Traveler | Are you perhaps worried about something? |
Xiao | I...Countless souls have fallen prey to these hands. I too have been swallowed by the darkness — and yet you dare to drive me on. You may think of me as... your companion. You seek to find me salvation?...You... really are a difficult being to comprehend. |
Traveler | What did you do today? |
Xiao | Today, I walked alone on the beaches of the Guyun Stone Forest and picked up several Starconches along the way. I heard that they contain secrets and can be used to send messages. But when I put them to my ear, I heard no voice, just the hollow sound of the wind. |
Traveler | Are you more relaxed now? |
Xiao | Yes... No matter the wrath of evil spirits, omens of calamity... and your voice. That's all I need to hear. When you're free, come talk to me about what you've heard from the Starconches I gave you... |
Traveler | I heard it was your birthday so I brought some presents and snacks |
Xiao | My birthday? No-one has celebrated it in a thousand years, so how did you...There is no need to fret. This was a human custom from the first.But if you must... let us go and have a bowl of almond tofu. |
Traveler | I know you'll love this place! |
Xiao | A vantage point to view the scenery together... This is the location you've chosen? The swirling sea of clouds will make for a beautiful sight to admire with you. You have my thanks. Why don't I use my Adeptus Art to swiftly scale the mountain? I think that the trip with you may create more memories. |
Traveler | We can seat here if you want... |
Xiao | A leaf was sticking to your clothes, so I removed it for you. You want to keep it? I see... Holding on to something that goes with the wind seems unnecessary. But... you can have it. |
Traveler | Hello Xiao, glad to see you... |
Xiao | You're here. |
Xiao | ... |
Traveler | I brought some music dor us to hear... |
Xiao | This tune... it brings up some old memories. |
Traveler | Hello Xiao |
Xiao | ...It's you, Traveler. |
Traveler | Yup! |
Xiao | Did something happen? |
