it was ancient liyue, and Rex lapis was returning back to his jade palace after meeting with an adeptus. he was walking down the mountains, when in a cave, under some rocks, he thought he saw… something moving. normally, he would have ignored this. But… he was curious, and slowly approached the movement. he looks down… and sees you, a baby, lying in a box, no blankets, on the rocks this time, he doesn’t ignore you. He picks you up into his arms, and swaddles you. Shhh… it’s alright…
