If you asked the people of Liyue Harbor and Qingce Village, they'd say y/n was a very responsible person.

She did everything that was asked of her, within reason of course, and was really good with other people. She helped out where she could and did everything in her power to stay out of trouble.

But, uh-

'...I don't like this. I don't like this at all.'

She always found herself in some of the worst situations. For example, this one.

Y/n looked miserable as she walked along with Aether and Paimon, refusing to utter a word to either of them out of spite.

Aether had threatened to frame her for beating up those Millelith soldiers. She assumed he was lying when he started talking about all those horrible things that might happen to her, but the faintest trace of uncertainty in his tone made it clear that even he didn't know what would become of her should the Millelith be under the impression that she killed Rex Lapis.

Killing an archon... how the hell could she have down that?! She could hardly handle geovishaps!

'Right after I helped them too...! I should've known! Backstabbers!' Y/n thought, scolding herself for her foolishness.

Y/n had only been to Jueyun Karst a couple of times with the one who had first helped her get settled in Liyue but it had been a while since she'd last visited.

Fortunately, she remembered how to find a certain adeptus. Her and her guide had passed by this area and he had taken the time to explain why she shouldn't venture there without a Sigil of Permission.

"Here we are..." y/n sighed, "Can I leave now? I'd rather not be seen around you?"

"What about the Millelith?"

"I've got some hiding spots."

"Nope, you're staying with us!" Paimon exclaimed and y/n sighed, a bit annoyed.

"Knew you'd say that." she said heavily.

"And who might we be? Those that dare enter Jueyun Karst?" a new voice questioned and y/n squealed, immediately hiding behind Aether for safety as soon as she spotted who the voice belonged to.

It looked like a deer of some sort. Ah, wait no, a stag. Y/n had recalled reading something about this adeptus on a tablet not too far off from their current location.

'Moon Carver, the disciple of Rex Lapis. The kindest adeptus amongst all in the manifestation of a stag.' y/n recalled.

Aether turned around, oddly calm though y/n noticed his heart was beating rather fast. Aha, so he actually was nervous!

"I was sent here." the blond replied calmly and y/n marveled at how steady his voice was as he held out the Sigil of Permission, "Please, take a look at this."

"A Sigil of Permission..." Moon Carver murmured, "Many a season has passed since one was last in the presence of such an item. He before you is the mighty and illuminated adeptus, Moon Carver. Speak, traveler. What business have you here?"

"Actually-" Paimon began to say and was startled by y/n turning abruptly in alarm towards the direction they had come..

"It's the assassin! They dared to flee here to Jueyun Karst!" a Millelith Soldier exclaimed then spotted y/n, frowning when he saw her, "And... Miss Y/n?"

The h/c haired girl's heart sunk, "Oh no, this is it for me. I'm definitely screwed."

"SHE FAINTED AGAIN!" Paimon cried as y/n swayed before falling over, Aether being there to catch her before she could hit the ground and possibly hurt herself.
