It's been a few days seen you saw the Traveler and apparently Childe wanted to meet up with you.

You went to Liyue Harbor and waved at your friends passing by, you arrived at the Golden House where Childe said he was and he waved happily.

He held the door open for you and closed it once the two of you were inside.

"So what did you want to talk to me about?" You crossed your arms as he gave a lighthearted laugh in return.

"I don't want you to panic later, so I'm telling you my plan now." He crossed his arms as well while you were confused, but wanted him to continue.

"I've been gathering Sigils of Permission, and I'm going to awaken Osial." He nonchalantly pulled many sigils out of his bag and showed them to you.

Their glow reflected off the mora surrounding the two of you and made your hair glow a yellow shade as your eyes widened at the Sigils.

"How do you have these.. And why do you want to awaken the Overlord of The Vortex!?" You turned your attention to him and angerly yelled at his childishness.

"Hey calm down buddy, you know that I need the Gnosis and I know that Liyue's god isn't truly dead. I just need him to come out of hiding." His eyes darkened as he spoke and sent shivers down your spine.

 "How do you know? The Exuvia is behind us, you can clearly see his body." You tried to put attention on his suspicion as he laughed and leaned closer.

"Number one, Signora told me she made a deal with him, and Number two... I know that you're one of his Yakshas, you know that he isn't dead as well." He threateningly whispered  and made eye contact as he spilled your own secret into your ears.   

You had no idea what to say at this point and you were stiff, you couldn't move your body and it felt like you weren't even there.

'Why did he know that? Why was he acting like that?'

"Y/N, I only told you this for your own good. Don't come into the harbor later if you don't wanna die. I'm doing this all for you and your safety, I care about you and it's only so Rex Lapis shows himself." He played hero and ran his fingers through your hair.

"I'm telling you all of this because it's for your own health and safety Y/N." He looked at you with his blank stare.

"I-.. If you are awaken Osial, I need to protect the people of Liyue- it's my duty. Also, why are you-" He cut you off and slapped a hand over your mouth.

"Listen to me. I care so much about you and I want you to be safe, the people of Liyue can protect themselves Y/N. They don't need you." His last sentence rang in your head and you were scared stiff once again.

"I signed a contract and I need to fulfil it." You shakily spoke through his hands and tried to find your confidence.

"Y/N. You're not listening. I'm doing all of this for you, I'm telling you all of this so you don't get hurt. My training in the abyss only trained me to have strength to protect myself." You felt a pain in your chest and your eyes started watering.

'The Abyss...'

"I only need the gnosis, then everything will go back to being perfect. We can be together and I can take you to meet the Tsarita as well. Y/N... Liyue is fine without you, but I'm not. Y/N I care about you so much more then you can realize." He whispered his fantasies into your ears once again.
