You were a Yaksha, living alone for the past 2000 years… The archon war had been devastating, killing many, including your friends, the five other Yakshas… or so you thought.
You spent most of your time in your own realm, away from mortals and others, it was peaceful yet lonely… you missed them… you missed flying alongside them in your bird forms… you missed Rex Lapis, the geo archon… you missed the mortals… the city of Liyue… you missed everything… but being in the mortal realm brought forth unpleasant feelings that you had tried to bury a long time ago…
Tonight was an exception, monsters were getting too close to the city so you fought them off, protecting Liyue as one of it’s adepti. You were about to go back to your realm before you heard a familiar sound… a bird call… each one of your yaksha friends had a unique call and this was… Xiao! He was calling out to his fallen friends though he knew none would answer…
