You and your girlfriend were traveling through the desert on your way to a specific destination. The sun was scorching, and the journey had taken its toll. Exhausted from the heat and the long trek, you found a quiet spot by the side of the road, and you both decided to rest for a while.

You fell asleep, the gentle desert breeze lulling you into a deep rest, but when you woke up, everything had changed. The peaceful surroundings were replaced by a cold, unfamiliar darkness. Your heart raced as you realized that you were no longer where you had fallen asleep. The once peaceful desert was now a terrifying and unknown place.

As your vision cleared, you saw them—Diluc and Zhongli, the notorious criminals and mercenaries of the desert, standing before you. Their presence was imposing, and the look in their eyes made it clear that they had taken you by force. You could hear your girlfriend’s frightened breaths beside you, both of you bound and helpless in their presence.

Diluc’s intense gaze met yours, and Zhongli stood silently beside him, exuding an aura of calm power. They had kidnapped you for reasons unknown, but you could sense the danger in the air. It wasn’t just a simple robbery; this was something far more serious, and you couldn’t help but wonder what fate had in store for you both.

“Sleep well?” Diluc’s voice broke the silence, his tone cold yet laced with something darker, as if savoring the moment.
