It was without a doubt that you’d consider Dan Heng an important person in your life but when things change, can you still hold him in that same regard? And how has he felt about you this whole time?

Being on an expedition in Xianzhou Luofu with Trailblazer, Dan Heng, March and Welt Yang was certainly eventful but things got pretty serious when you were separated from the crew during a fight against a particularly strong Mara-struck.

Luckily though you managed to regroup with the others and everyone seemed to be okay. Until you noticed Dan Heng looked.. different.

The once deep turquoise eyes of his now glowed a bright hue as if they were literally glowing, his hair longer than usual and reaching his back, and.. a tail? Horns too? Dan Heng seemed to have taken on a form of a Vidyadhara and it’s the last thing you were expecting to see on this trip.

His eyes found yours and he went to speak but when no words came out, he glanced away briefly before sighing and speaking up in a much quieter tone, so soft that you almost had to strain your ears to hear him.

“It’s not.. permanent, but..”

He trailed off and met your gaze quietly, as if he was nervously waiting for you to express your opinion on his new form.
