please do note that i am still a minor as a teenage girl in high school. updates may either be slow or weekly if i'm not too busy with my private life. unnecessary drama is not appreciated. please don't leave any disrespectful (homophobic, racist, misogynistic, sexist, etc.) comments in the comment section. if i ever do spot any, i will remove them immediately.
— 002.
the range of my vocabulary is still low, so you may find repeated words through the statements of this book. i've only got hooked on writing in the year 2020, thus having rock-bottom experience in creating descriptive narration that are adaptable to the reader's minds. please do bear with me. i am truly trying my very best and trying to reach my potential as a writer.
— 003.
grammar mistakes might be seen throughout the story, and i apologize for that. the english language is not my local speech, nor am i from a country whose first language is english. i am but a lady from a southeast asian country, the philippines. so as you may have guessed, my main dialect is tagalog. therefore speaking, i am a filipina.
— 004.
feedback is encouraged from all of you (suggestions/recommendations/constructive criticism). i do highly encourage you all to send these to me through my inbox since it seems more professional that way. when messaging me, do avoid speaking vulgarly, especially if it's criticizing my work. please remember to respect the feelings of other people. same goes for me as well, if i do unintentionally hurt your feelings, do not hesitate to message me so we can calmly sort out misunderstandings.

votes and comments are appreciated throughout the journey of this fanfiction. as a writer myself, i enjoy reading your reactions through the comment section. it puts a smile on my face to see people's reactions through the comment section. your voting can also help other readers to find this work of fiction, and i'm really glad that they do. and as much as possible, please don't be a ghost reader.

i do not own genshin impact in any way shape or form. the majority of the characters belongs to hoyoverse
— 007.
this story will follow along my own planned plot. however, i will be adding some scenes that are from the genshin lore/plot.
— 008.
scenarios in this fanfic that were not in the genshin gameplay all came from my chaotic imagination unless stated otherwise. if you see something similar, it's all simply a coincidence. i would never copy a co-author's fanfiction scenario without any proper credits. i'm heavily aware that plagiarism is a crime. and hopefully, others won't copy mine as well. if you do take inspiration from any of my plot points, kindly credit me properly. i'd be more than happy to acknowledge that my works have inspired someone.
— 009.
all edited graphics belong to me. however, i do not own the gifs, nor do i own any of the graphics used in my edits. if you know or if you are the owner of the fanart, please tell me through private message (with proof of work if you are the artist) so I can properly credit them/you.
