[Genshin Impact] Building a Home and Career in Liyue

My name is Yan Dao, and I'm a programmer. I'm currently obsessed with a game called Genshin Impact, and I'm an Xiao fan. On my thirtieth birthday, I transmigrated. Still entirely and unalterably three-dimensional, I landed right in front of the newly born Archon Morax, and somehow began my journey through Teyvat. * The young Archon fixed his amber-gold eyes on the newly born Archon and decided to give him a little scare. Then he flicked his sleeves and left without a trace. Later, with nothing better to do, Morax returned to visit the vicinity of that unknown Archon and amuse himself. And later still, in addition to looking after the villagers, Yan Dao found himself personally caring for an idle young master. The tea had to be top quality, the clothes the softest, and even the birds near the house had to have the sweetest songs. "If I don't look after him properly, the people of Liyue centuries from now will drown me in spit, one mouthful at a time." "He's so demanding. How did he even manage before..." "Heavens, spare me! I want to be Xiao's dad, but can I please not be the young master's dad too?" Later, in name at least, Yan Dao really did become Xiao's father. Only... "This is the last time I'm calling on Heaven. You never treated me like your son in the first place..." The Archon of Humanity was born from human wisdom and will. He spread knowledge among humankind, allowing civilization to endure. During the Archon War, Yan Dao once tried to change the fates of others, securing for humanity the one variable that could make happiness possible. After that, however, he disappeared. There can only be one divine throne, and it cannot be escaped. There are only two paths to becoming a ruler: life or death. Before the war, the Archon of Humanity showed people the way forward, bringing the fragrance of knowledge and the flourishing of skilled crafts. Civilization became the brightest star in the sky. After the war, the Archon of Humanity vanished without a trace. Only an empty shell remained in prosperous Liyue Harbor, standing beside its ruler. A strange person stood beside the consultant named Zhongli, like a puppet. An old woman called Madame Ping would address him as "A-Dao," and the young adeptus Xiao would send him a sprig of Qingxin on holidays. "By common sense, he promised he would return before long. Then he will certainly return." Forum thread: Uncle insiders say "that man" has finally been spotted!!! 1L Name: Yan Dao Nation: Liyue Element: Pyro Rarity: Limited five-star Constellation: Guyu Seat Weapon type: Sword 2L I swear, that silhouette in the cutscene had me dying... Hah, hah! 3L Xiao and Zhongli have really mentioned him so many times aaaah! 4L They started teasing him in 1.1, and he still isn't playable @#%&... 5L That's just cruel, 2222. What is he wearing, what is he wearing! I'm dead! (Extremely loud) 6L He had me smitten just from the 2D cutscenes. He's in both the Geo Archon's and the Five Yakshas' animations. This man is downright sinful!!!! Reader's Guide · Top, with Morax as the confirmed pairing · OOC warning, with some wish fulfillment · Don't nitpick the lore; there are personal additions and plot changes · Includes forum-style posts and fanworks, and the protagonist has a golden finger · The timeline begins long before the Archon War · The writing isn't great. If that's not your thing, don't read. If you drop it, no need to tell me Theme: Every encounter is a blessing from fate
