The cold air of Liyue bit at your skin as you walked through the quiet streets, the last rays of the sun slipping behind the distant mountains. Winter had settled in, and with it came the familiar chill that made you long for a warm place to rest.
As you passed through the town square, you spotted a familiar figure. Chongyun, the exorcist from Liyue, was standing near the fountain, his gaze fixed on the shimmering water. His usual calm demeanor was apparent, but there was an air of distraction about him today.
You walked closer, your footsteps light on the snow-covered ground. "Chongyun," you called softly, not wanting to startle him.
He turned at the sound of your voice, his bright blue eyes meeting yours. A warm smile spread across his face, although there was a hint of uncertainty in his expression. "Ah," he greeted, his voice gentle. "I didn't expect to see you out in this weather. Itβs quite cold tonight."
