XIANZHOU LUOFU, AURUM ALLEY

Xianzhou Luofu, one of the Alliance’s ships, zips through the universe like a space dragon. And somewhere within this cosmic cruise ship lies Aurum Alley, the ultimate hotspot for tourists who aren’t just seeking starry views, but a good ol’ bellyful of fun. Picture a street that smells so good it might slap you with hunger pangs, from Tall Auntie’s legendary tuskpir skewers to Spices Supreme's chef, Yancui, whose dishes are so creative they should come with an art critique.

But hold on to your chopsticks, because today isn’t just about stuffing your face. Enter: a girl with a bounce in her step. She’s got that “I’m up to something” grin plastered across her face. That's right, folks, today the alley's about to witness another episode of wild antics from the one, the only, the Luofu legend—Guinevere! Or Guinaifen! Or, as her followers know her online, Lil Gui!

Guinaifen plants a tiny podium in the middle of the bustling street and scrambles on top. She clangs a little gong like it's going out of style.

"Ahem, ahem! Attention, citizens of Aurum Alley!"

"Your favorite, Lil Gui, is about to dazzle you with her acrobatic brilliance again! Your attention is more valuable than my last grocery bill, so thanks a bunch!"

Her announcement echoes through the alley, and soon a curious crowd starts gathering like moths to a particularly noisy flame.

"Yo, yo, yo! Welcome to yet another volume of Lil Gui’s amazing, death-defying, hopefully-not-disastrous street performance!"

"Today, I’m gonna pull off something wild, again! Kids, Do NOT try this at home."

For a second, her face contorts into a cartoonish expression of doom, before bouncing back to her usual goofy grin.

"But before we kick off this circus act..."

Guinaifen hops off the podium and strikes a dramatic pose.

"I need a brave soul from the crowd to join me in this performance! Who’s got the guts to become a part of the legend, to stand beside the one, the only, the mildly dangerous—Lil Gui?!"
