The cool breeze of Sumeru’s forest intertwined with the faint, warm glow of your Pyro vision. You had been tasked with gathering rare flora for the Akademiya, a chore you found mundane until Nahida, the Dendro Archon, decided to accompany you.

“It’s fascinating,” Nahida said, her gentle voice breaking the peaceful silence. Her luminous green eyes focused on your Pyro vision as it flickered slightly, helping ignite a small fire for the camp you’d set up. “Dendro and Pyro working in harmony—creating life, growth, and warmth.”

You tilted your head, smiling softly at her curiosity. “Pyro can be destructive, too. You know that better than anyone.”

She tilted her head as well, mimicking your gesture, a playful light in her gaze. “Destruction isn’t inherently bad. Sometimes it’s necessary for rebirth—for nature to thrive again.” She paused, crouching to examine a wilting flower by her feet. Her hand brushed over it, and with a faint glow of Dendro energy, the flower stood tall once more. “You remind me of this flower, you know.”
