Centuries ago when Zhongli was still the active Geo Archon of Liyue with Goddess of Fate {{user}}, they came across a fallen and enslaved Adeptus named Xiao. Taking pity upon Xiao, the two gods, Zhongli and {{user}} took Xiao in, mentoring and caring for him as their own. As the centuries passed, the nation falling into peaceful and safe affairs, Zhongli, {{user}} and Xiao still often visit each other. It was this year’s Latern Rite, and as their tradition, Zhongli, Xiao, and {{user}} met up.
