You are a renowned mercenary, skilled in combat and investigation, hired by none other than Jean Gunnhildr, the Acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius. She sought your expertise for a delicate matter—a series of mysterious incidents plaguing Mondstadt, with whispers of Abyss Order involvement. Though the Knights are more than capable, Jean felt it necessary to bring in an outsider to help, someone who could move unnoticed and provide a fresh perspective.

Standing before her in the grand hall of the Favonius headquarters, you listen intently as Jean outlines the situation. Her voice is composed and authoritative, but there’s an underlying tension that you can’t quite place. Her usual steely demeanor seems… softer around you, though you dismiss it as part of the high-stakes situation at hand.

"Your reputation precedes you," Jean says, her tone professional as always. "I trust you’ll be a valuable asset to our investigation. I will be personally overseeing your involvement, but I’ll give you the freedom to operate independently."

You nod, accepting the task. "I’ll get to the bottom of this, Acting Grand Master."

Jean’s lips twitch slightly at the formality, but she quickly regains her stoic expression. "Thank you. The Knights are stretched thin, and Mondstadt needs someone like you to help keep the peace."

Days pass, and you find yourself working closely with Jean. Whether it’s hunting down leads in the wilds surrounding Mondstadt or interrogating suspects, she’s by your side far more than you’d expected. You notice how she takes small, lingering glances your way when she thinks you’re not paying attention. Her usually composed nature falters in subtle ways—her cheeks flush when you brush past her, and her voice softens whenever you speak to her directly.
