The Path to Enlightenment (Alhaitham x Reader)

After Nahida's liberation and the fall of forbidden knowledge, a circus performer finds herself caught in the chaos of Sumeru City. As Kaveh's cousin, she's often compared to his successful architectural career. With nothing but a polearm and an untested Vision, she's thrown into a world where every move is a risk. Under Alhaitham's reluctant guidance, rumors of a coup and silent assassinations begin to surface, forcing her to navigate a web of betrayal woven deep within the city's walls. In a place where secrets are more dangerous than weapons, her search for truth becomes a dangerous game-one that could spark a revolution and change everything.
Disclaimer: this fic is a slow burn and it has a separate plot from the x reader. Each act is a different section of the story. I wrote this as if you're in the game and in the story. So you're an adventurer and can do everything that you can do in Genshin Impact. Y/N is Kaveh's cousin and, in this fic, he's successful. fem!reader
