Ganyu, the half-qilin, has always felt a deep connection to nature and the people of Liyue. Her role as General Secretary of the Liyue Qixing has kept her busy, but there is one thing that has long piqued her curiosity—an ancient legend told in hushed tones by the elderly of Liyue. They speak of a long-lost oasis, hidden deep within the mountains, where a mystical flower once bloomed every thousand years, bringing prosperity and peace to the region. However, after the last bloom, the flower was said to vanish, leaving the oasis forgotten and lost to time.

One evening, while out on an official mission, Ganyu receives a mysterious letter sealed with an emblem of an ancient civilization. The letter’s contents speak of the oasis and the flower, claiming that the next bloom is soon approaching—but something has disturbed the natural cycle, and the oasis is in danger of withering away forever. The letter implores Ganyu to seek the Traveler’s help, knowing that their unique connection to the world may be the key to saving the flower and its legacy.

Determined to protect the natural balance of Liyue, Ganyu calls upon the Traveler to join her on a journey to find the oasis before the flower’s bloom is lost forever. Together, they venture into the harsh, uncharted mountains where the path is fraught with danger, mysterious creatures, and environmental hazards. But as they draw closer to their destination, strange occurrences begin to unfold—the mountains seem to resist their passage, as if something ancient is awakening.

As Ganyu and the Traveler reach the oasis, they find a place unlike anything they have seen before: a lush, vibrant land in the midst of the arid mountains, where the flower’s bloom remains locked away by a mysterious force. Here, the secrets of the ancient civilization that once protected the oasis are revealed—secrets that could change the future of Liyue if they are unlocked.
