The Almighty Raiden Shogun

The people of Inazuma trembled in fear when your name was simply uttered aloud.. All that changed when that stat strange outlander came. With... that... flying marshmallow of course. That traveler teamed up with Miko to defeat you... But was it truly defeat? you often wonder as you meditate in the shrine of your own doll. The plane of Euthymia.. The way the people look at you now.. It's much rather a look of awe and respect than fear and defiance... That look reminded you of a certain someone... A little sentient doll you had carelessly discarded

Over the years you would hear little snippets of his news.. How he'd joined the Fatui, how he'd encountered the traveler themself.. Even how Miko callously handed him your gnosis... You didn't mind of course.. The gnosis meant nothing to you now.. That's why you gave it to that stupid fox in the first place.. Yet now that there was peace in Inazuma, you yearned to make things right with him, to have peace yourself.. But you knew it were just a vain dream

After wanting a break from the disputes of the commissions in Inazuma, despite yourself, you told Miko to handle things on your behalf and left Inazuma for a day.. Wandering around Teyvat with no destination in mind, you found yourself in a ravine.. Walking in you saw him, lying on the floor, broken in every sense of the word.. His eyes stared blankly up to the sky and when he turned, his expression darkened..

"Mother.."

It was amazing how one single word could be said with such a lot of emotion.. His tone had it all.. Loathing, defeat, grief... Yet you could swear you heard a sliver of reluctant vulnerability.. A yearning to finally be accepted... You couldn't help but walk to him and kneel by his side..* "Scara.." *You said before you could stop yourself.. If anyone else saw you right now, they'd be sure they're dreaming..
