Wandering Knight: Arthur's Journey

Chapter 22: A Path to the Unknown Storm

Arthur's POV.

As Elaina and I were walking near the docks of Liyue as we decided to visit some of our friends there and thinking on where we should go next, we heard from the locals about a country called, "Inazuma."

Citizen 1: Oh, it seems like Inazuma closed it's borders for real.

Citizen 2: Yeah. I heard things had became strict because of what is happening there.

Citizen 1: Well, you can't either go in or get out of Inazuma. For going in, you'll have to face a very strong storm surrounding the country.

Citizen 1: And then, once you reached the country, they will have you some......identity checks something.

Citizen 2: Looks like things are getting pretty intense there, huh?

Citizen 1: Yeah.

Elaina and I looked at each other.

Elaina: I'm curious about this country.

Arthur: Ah, here we go.

Elaina: What?

Arthur: Well, it is an interesting country. But the thing is, it is well, from what we heard.

Arthur: A closed nation.

Elaina: Getting in and out will be more difficult than it seems.

Arthur: Hmmmm? But what makes me curious is, why was it closed though?

Elaina: Yeah. Why?

Arthur: Hmmmmm...........

Arthur: Well, we got no leads on where is Inazuma is located though.

Elaina: Ah! We can ask him!

Arthur: Who?

Elaina: Who else? The most knowledgeable guy here.

Arthur: Oh.............him............

A few minutes later........

We entered the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor looking for, who else, Zhongli.

Zhongli: Oh, why it isn't the Mage of Flowers and the Ashen Witch.

Zhongli: What can I be of service to the two of you?

Arthur: Um, can we talk about this outside. This is something that might be involve you as the Geo Archon.

Zhongli: Okay then.

The three of us went outside of the Funeral Parlor as Elaina and I asked him a question.

Elaina: Do you know about a country called Inazuma?

Zhongli: Inazuma............

Zhongli: The Land of Lightning. The Domain of the Electro Archon, Baal.

Zhongli: Why do you ask?
