"Zhongli, wake up"

Y/N yawned and pushed over the sleeping boy who grumbled in return.

He rolled over and latched onto her waist.

"Zhongli if we don't get up then Qiqi will get suspicious and come in, I don't want her seeing us naked" Y/N yawned.

Zhongli opened his amber eyes and smiled.

"Good morning to you too, Y/N"

Y/N smiled but her cheerful nature quickly faded when she felt a sudden sting of pain spread from her back to the rest of her body.

Zhongli sat up alarmed by the sudden change in mood.

"Y/N..." he sighed but she grit her teeth painfully.

"I-It's nothing" she smiled.

Zhongli shifted behind her and removed the blanket from her back.

He ran a hand over her bandage making her shiver.

"D-Don't-" she mumbled.

"Just relax..." Zhongli shushed.

He slowly removed the bandage to see the large gaping hole.

"What happened..." he said furrowing his brows.

"I got jumped one night"

"Who did it" Zhongli said placing the bandage back down on her back.

"I didn't see their face but they wore a black coat" she sighed.

"But really, I'm fine!"

Zhongli shook his head and wrapped his arms around the girl.

"It's not fine, without your vision that leaves you vulnerable to different types of energy"

"That means you are very susceptible to astral forces"

Y/N had read about Astral energy and those books still haunt her to this day.

Made by a corrupted adepti, the Astral forces attach themselves to those vulnerable to them.

Such as losing a vision or depression are the most popular.

They call those who have been corrupted by the energy the Daemon.

There have been few Daemon ever since the gods banished the adeptus away.

But the curse still lingers.

"We need to find your vision or at least give you a temporary solution" Zhongli said in her ear.

But Y/N couldn't help but feel but impending since of dread.

"Do you have it?"

A Fauti diplomat nodded.

"Yes mistress" she bowed.

"Our weapon is almost complete"

"The Cyro nation will rise once again"
