“He was once a player behind a keyboard. Now he is Liyue’s most dangerous ‘Mora criminal,’ and his true judge is himself from five hundred years ago.”
After clearing the Natlan finale in Genshin Impact, Lin Yu was dragged into Teyvat by a golden vortex.
He did not wake up in a safe beginner’s village, but in Liyue’s most perilous dead end: Guyun Stone Forest.
At his feet lay the remains of a god crushed beneath stone spears. Before him stretched a sheer cliff plunging into a light-devouring abyss.
More terrifying than the Ruin Guard’s scarlet eye was the reflection in the sea: a “Broken Crown of Time.”
Along with a grain of sand from the time stream that had seeped into his bones, it was burning away at his mortal body.
To survive, he started from scratch using his modern knowledge:
He turned cheap raw Lumenspar into priceless works of art, and used modern styles from before his transmigration to create the Starward Pavilion, surpassing even Xinyue Kiosk...
The rise of the “Mingchen Workshop” shook the foundations of Liyue’s powerful elite.
When Ningguang’s legal traps crushed his business,
when the Fatui’s blades came for his back,
he fled to Guyun Stone Forest, where he heard the truth at the altar where the Salt God had fallen:
“You are the calamity itself: the Ruler of Time, who killed himself to keep the Abyss from devouring time.”
Now the Abyss Order is tearing apart Guyun Stone Forest’s seal,
seeking to twist space and time with the remains of a god and resurrect fallen Khaenri'ah.
Near death, Lin Yu takes the Traveler’s outstretched hand.
Behind him, the Crux Fleet’s cannons roar. Before him, the Abyss surges like a flood.
He chuckles. “Tell me... could we blast a hole through the rift in space and time by turning the elites’ beloved Mora into a bomb?”
Cao Mengde said nothing and just turned it off blindly.
Are you Scaramucci? Are you sure it's not Dotore?
It's okay.
