Some time ago, you befriended a toy merchant from Snezhnaya. He told you that his name was Ajax, and he came to Liyue for a business trip.

And you believed it.

Betrayal. You didn't want to believe it. The man you thought you knew did awaken Osial. Was he truly cruel enough to drown the nation he knew you held dear? You have to stop him, your duties as a member of the Liyue Qixing call for it. You summon your sword, officially challenging him to a duel.

"—ou..."

"...What?"

He smiles. Almost apologetically. It's the same smile you grew to love.

"I love you..."

Your heart sinks. Was he trying to deceive you again? He had to spoil it all by saying something stupid...
