[Genshin Impact] The Tomie Physique in Teyvat

A preview of my upcoming novel, I'll Play the Role of Morax. Morax is an otherworldly heartthrob adored by everyone. The blurb is at the bottom.

Blurb:

My name is Wen Bei. I'm a stranger here.

Teyvat will never be my home.

Well, it's not that I don't want one. I just happen to have a rather troublesome condition.

Have you ever heard of Tomie? She makes every living thing fall madly in love with her, amplifying people's desires until they might even dismember her under the pull of that fatal attraction. And that's not even the scariest part: she has endless regenerative powers, can split and make copies of herself, and has even more terrifying abilities, like invading others with her cells.

Though our genders are different, her condition is the best way to explain what's happening to me.

The good news is that, although I can regenerate my limbs, I can't split into copies of myself or use my cells to invade the world around me. The bad news is that I really do make other people fall in love with me :).

From a long, long time ago, before Liyue was founded, I wandered from place to place, trying not to get close to creatures with too much intelligence. But as a human who could perhaps be called weak, going a long time without forming connections with anyone was just too much for me.

Later, I came up with another solution. I found that some people had a high resistance to my condition, and gradually regained their senses after getting away from me.

I kept traveling from place to place. I wouldn't say I thrived, but at least I stayed alive.

That is, until I realized that the more resistant some people were, the more hidden their desires became.

Another version of the blurb:

After accidentally waking from a seal, Wen Bei begins his travels across Teyvat while trying to avoid trouble.

In Mondstadt, the Cavalry Captain greets him with a smile, the winery owner takes in the sights with him, and a friendly bard plays him a song. Under the waters of Fontaine, the prison warden opens his heart to him. In Sumeru, his friends discuss life and ideals with him... His journey will continue through Inazuma and Natlan, but most important of all, his friends in Liyue are still waiting for him to come home.

*Probably a rambling, snarky sort of story.

*The main story is in third person.

*A heartthrob adored by everyone (?).

*The extras have different endings.

Blurb for the upcoming novel I'll Play the Role of Morax:

Morax. Let us call him Morax, for now.

The name he once bore had long since become a lost piece of history. His body crumbled and scattered across every inch of Teyvat, his blood and flesh flowed through all its rivers. He raised his hands and pieced together the shattered planet, allowing his very existence to be erased...

He fell into a warm ocean.

[Beep. Host detected awakening. Please begin your role-playing mission.]

Morax opened his eyes and saw a glowing screen floating before him, reading its contents aloud.

[Role-Playing Mission: Play the role of Morax.]

Morax lowered his head, showing a rare trace of confusion.

Play the role of... himself?

After many twists and turns, he finally figured out that this seemed to be another parallel world where Teyvat had not been destroyed. Faced with the System's role-playing mission, Morax, having lost all his power, had no choice but to play another version of himself to slowly restore his energy.

But...

"Why am I on the moon?"

*

During the Rite of Descension, Rex Lapis was assassinated. At the same time, a huge hole was punched into the sky of Teyvat.

The terrifying hole soon repaired itself, but a self-consistent rumor gradually spread throughout Teyvat:

Rex Lapis, who had returned to the heavens, couldn't bear to leave Liyue and Teyvat, and had transformed into thousands of incarnations to walk the earth once more.

"He left behind so many beautiful legends!" Tian Tie Zui opened and closed his fan, ending his story with those words.

"You mean he got involved with a whole bunch of people!" Paimon stamped her foot.

"Hey, how can you call anything Rex Lapis does getting involved with people?! Brother Zhongli, tell me, am I right?"

"...By common reasoning, that is not incorrect."

*Probably an all-Morax pairing.

*Lots of headcanon.

*Really, really lots of headcanon. Please don't worry too much if the logic doesn't add up.

Theme: Remain noble through life's twists and turns.
