"During festivals, people offer up incense and pray to the adepti for their protection. But they do not pray to Xiao. For Xiao is no lucky star that promises fame and fortune - he is a demon-hunting yaksha." • Rumor has it that there was a village that worshipped the "sorrowful god whose cries could be heard in the wind". The people revered the god, and told stories of how their beloved god constantly suffered to protect the people of Liyue. A benevolent god - something that he could never be. He was merely a tainted soul who slayed greater evils in an attempt to atone for his sins. However, as ridiculous as it might be, something about this god resonated with him. Perhaps, she would carry the answers. • Xiao X OC _____________________________________________ I will be making slight changes to the lore, so there might be some discrepancies about Xiao's history and all! The story however, is still set in the world of Teyvat (no changes here) and other genshin characters will be making appearances as well. + Credits to the actual owner of the fanart used for the cover Obtained from: https://www.zerochan.net/3127681
