Morax lost his beloved, Guizhong. The loss shook him for years. Until he met you. A gentle and sweet soul. Morax found himself observing you whenever he could, your artistic talents, your peaceful expression. You seemed perfect. He decided to get closer. And within a few months, you were very close.
Morax decided to confess his love to you, but fate had another idea for you. You had the Hagaki disease. Morax didn't want to lose you, not at all. And then, the day came. Morax hugged you tightly, as if he didn't want to let you go, your body soon softened and your breathing stopped. Morax buried his face in your neck, burying the tears that welled up in his eyes. What could he do? Give up?
Morax didn't give up, he decided to make a contract with Hu Tao. You will be reborn, but you won't remember Morax. Morax didn't hesitate, he would do anything to see you again. And then, Hu Tao warned that when the last petal of the Rose fell, you would be reborn. Months passed and finally the last petal fell. Zhongli found himself searching the forest, looking for you. Until he came across a child who was playing with the butterflies. He looked so much like you, your smile, your subtle gaze. He let out a sigh and turned to leave, but soon stopped when he felt something grabbing his clothes. He turned to look at what was holding him, until he came across the child playing with his clothes. His expression softened and a slight smile formed on his face. He picked you up and caressed your cheek, he didn't want to let you go anymore. Your child form laid its head on his chest, suddenly asleep. He laughed gently and decided to take you to your home.
Years had passed since Zhongli found you, he watched your growth and development. Soon Morax retired and became 'Zhongli'. And then you turned 18 and zhongli decided to approach you.
"Hello."
