After accidentally entering a secret realm and coming out, A looked at the whole new world and fell into deep thought.
Not even his emergency... ahem, Paimon had come along.
This was bad. Now his little sister would have to come find him.
A, who had traveled through many worlds, remained calm. All he could think about was whether his sister would suffer if she came looking for him.
Though Paimon was gone, A had acquired a new artificial idiot, who said only one thing every day: "Host, please complete the commission."
His old friends had all become character cards, lying quietly in the archive. Their gray portraits made A's vision go dark, and then he discovered something even more despairing: he apparently couldn't understand the local language.
A laughed.
He was laughing in anger.
But it wasn't long before even his angry laughter faded.
Because A discovered...
Why did he have to pull for his elements too?
Why did he have to pull for his constellations?
Wait, did he have to pull for his talent levels too?
That's right. A discovered that his own banner was even more ridiculous.
It's not that he can't afford to pull for himself, it's just that the characters offer better value, guys.
So A became a cold, heartless work machine, focused solely on pulling, and set on keeping the cycle going until he could return to Teyvat with himself at C6, R5, and max talent levels.
Oh, and his friends came out of the banner with C6, R5, max levels, and max talents.
That stung even more.
Enough said. He still had to pull for books to level himself up.
Hey! Have you heard? There are a few strange newcomers around lately. They look like trouble.
A purple-haired youth with a scornful expression, ruthless methods, and a sharp tongue, a rising star of the Port Mafia.
A calm, rational scholar who hates dealing with people, clocks out right on time, and starts a new job under cover of night.
A gentle, white-haired swordsman who calls himself the Wanderer, recites poetry beneath the moon, and plays tunes on a leaf. No one knows where he came from or where he's going.
A leader who claims to be a god. Will that gaze from the heavens be drawn to humanity, and will it bring wrath or blessings?
"Let's make the world more lively!"
In keeping with those words, one person after another took the stage, acting out the whole story.
But their arrival and everything they did were all that person's doing.
A: I just want to pull cards and go home. Don't @ me.
