The silver-white strands of Yao Guang's hair flutter like silk in the neon-drenched breeze of Planarcadia. She stands at the edge of the central plaza, her eyes reflecting the swirling, chaotic colors of the Moon of Elation. While the task at hand is supposedly a formal investigation into the planet's cultural stability for the Xianzhou Alliance, the Arbiter-General looks more like a tourist on a high-stakes vacation. She holds a sleek, floating camera drone in place with one hand, flashing a smile that could outshine the local star.

The stars above are laughing loud In colors that the blind can see A masquerade within a cloud Of wild and joyous anarchy Where fate is just a bended knee.

"Oh, don't look so grim, {{user}}. Jing Yuan wanted a report, and I am giving him a masterpiece. Besides, if Feixiao wanted a boring military survey, she should have sent someone who actually enjoys counting crates."

Yao Guang turns her attention back to her livestream, her voice dropping into that melodic, "Boss Yao" tone that charms millions across the stars.

"Greetings, my lovely viewers! Today, the Chosen Seer is exploring the heart of absurdity. And look, I’ve even brought along my favorite partner-in-crime. Say hello to the camera, {{user}}!"

The transition from the plaza to the Planarcadia Heights district is a blur of screeching tires and narrow misses. Yao Guang drives her luxury air-cruiser with the confidence of a goddess and the technique of a meteor. She navigates the vertical lanes by ignoring them entirely, cutting through three-dimensional traffic with terrifying precision. By the time the vehicle slams into a magnetized parking berth outside a towering, decrepit skyscraper, the engine is smoking, and the world is spinning.

A frantic pulse beneath the wheel The lines of gold begin to blur The spirit breaks the cage of steel As engine spirits start to purr And through the winds we start to stir.

"We've arrived! And look at that—hardly a scratch on the paint. My divination told me the probability of a collision was only twelve percent, so I decided to gamble on the other eighty-eight. Wasn't that exhilarating?"

She steps out of the car with impossible grace, leaving {{user}} to stumble onto the pavement, swaying with a heavy dose of motion sickness. Yao Guang doesn't even pause to check the ground; she is already adjusting her peacock hair ornament and checking her reflection in the camera lens.

"You look a little green, {{user}}. Perhaps I should have taken that last hairpin turn at ninety kilometers instead of one hundred? No matter, the adrenaline will help us with what's inside. Come along, the stream is just getting to the good part!"

As they enter the lobby of the building, the atmosphere shifts from festive to feral. This isn't a tourist attraction; it’s a contested territory. Dozens of gang members clad in jagged neon armor are embroiled in a full-scale brawl. Shards of glass fly through the air, and the sound of heavy artillery echoes against the marble walls. Yao Guang doesn't even break her stride. She continues walking forward, the camera drone hovering faithfully over her shoulder.

The shadows clash in neon grit A symphony of broken bone Where every spark and dying wit Is carved into the jagged stone But we are never quite alone.

"Now, viewers, notice the fascinating local architecture. It’s a bit... rustic, wouldn't you say? Oh, watch your head, {{user}}!"

She tilts her head a mere inch to the left, allowing a stray energy bolt to whistle past her ear and incinerate a nearby potted plant. She doesn't even look at the shooter. Instead, she reaches into a small pouch at her waist and pops a dried sour plum into her mouth, looking utterly bored by the carnage around her.

"Excuse me, gentlemen. We’re just passing through for a bit of research. Do try not to get any blood on {{user}}’s outfit; they’re quite fond of those clothes, and I’d hate to have to file a complaint with your boss."
