    Summary

    Even I sometimes reminisce the carefree and happy days of the past. The warmth of the Knights, my friends, my father...
    Everything was perfect.
    But one can never return to the past. I cannot keep on daydreaming for the sake of the future.
    Or should I say, someone has to wake up to face the darkness before dawn so others can dream.
    Logically you know there are some things you need to accept, yet emotionally it’s so much harder. I’m so torn...
    Hope the business goes well. It’s a battlefield out there in the liquor business.

     

    Now, Margaret knew she wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed. But if her hunch was right, and that first line was referring to what she thought it was referring to, there was only one person who could’ve written this note.

    Diluc Ragnvindr.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Margaret’s eyes kept getting drawn to one particular line. Someone has to wake up to face the darkness before dawn so others can dream.

    […] Did this mean he didn’t have any dreams? Or was it that all his dreams were crushed on that fateful day? Either way, the way this was worded sounded like he was giving up even the possibility of dreaming for the sake of others. Perhaps it was some sense of self-righteousness, but this didn’t sit right in Margaret’s stomach. Mondstadt was the City of Freedom. That meant nobody should give up their freedom to dream, or anything, even if they did so willingly. The knowledge that the city’s hidden savior resigned himself to protect the city from the shadows, sacrificing… whatever he sacrificed to make that possible, made her apologize to him in her heart, even if it was meaningless.

    The Past, the Present, and All the Memories in Between by

    Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)

    Summary

    “So it’s time travel?”

    “No, not quite,” Albedo gently chews on his lower lip in contemplation on how to simplify the concept. “The Ley Lines hold memories of everything that has ever happened in the world. It appears that this Ley Line disorder has converged the past memories with our current memories.”

    Kaeya cocks his head to the side, “So we’re currently in the past?”

    “I suppose you could put it like that, but it’s more like our past and our present have collided.”

    “So, time travel?”

    Albedo sighs, “Sure, let’s call it that.”

    A growing string of disappearing people, a catastrophic Ley Line disorder, a chaotic space and a convoluted Fatui plot throws much of Mondstadt into a not-so-distant past, surrounded by uncomfortably familiar faces.

    Unfortunately for Kaeya, this means forgoing a much-needed vacation to figure out what is actually going on, which is quite difficult when a certain Inspector keeps getting in the way.

    And all the while grappling with the presence of a boy who looks and sounds like Diluc, but is someone far different than the man that Diluc has become.

    Gods, he could really go for a drink right about now.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    “Nymph didn’t mention specifics,” Albedo says as he continues to focus on the board, “but she believes that some of the senior Knights are trying to limit contact with us.”

    Kaeya hums in contemplation—in part trying to analyse what Albedo said and in part trying to figure out what his next move should be. “Did she mention anything about the Inspector?”

    If this really is the past, then the Inspector will be a nightmare to deal with. It took months for him and Jean to prove Eroch’s treachery, and longer still to convince Varka to take their accusations seriously. Varka had trusted Eroch for decades. They'd grown up together. Kaeya hadn't exactly envied Jean when she had to tell the Grand Master.

    Summary

    Nahida thought her growth would be slow. She expected it to be a gradual sort of thing, taking place over centuries. But in the months and years after her escape, Nahida shoots up like a plant moved from shade to light.

    Nahida photosynthesizes, grows from a sprout to a sapling, destroys a building, initiates an accidental mind-meld, and begins to come to terms with the five hundred years that were taken from her, roughly in that order.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    There is an uncharacteristic bitterness twining up her bones the more they deign to grow. She used to think, curled alone in her prison: If only I were bigger. If only I had more time before they found me.

    She tries not to think about it. She does not like to think of it. But her body no longer gives her the option to ignore it.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Kusanali stood before him, a little over half his height but managing to look quite a bit more intimidating thanks to her command of [this dreamscape]. She really was Rukkhadevata’s spitting image– she could be her younger sister. For a moment, his heart ached– but this was not Rukkhadevata. For all her awkwardness and tendency to get absorbed in things and the way she never seemed to quite know how to show her feelings, Rukkhadevata’s eyes, and heart, had been kind. Kusanali’s eyes were large, round, and dull. They scrutinized him with a clinical precision he found he very much did not like. “You are the Anemo Archon.”

    “Barbatos,” he answered after a moment, giving her a short bow at the waist. “But please, call me Venti.”

    She stared at him for several long seconds before she finally blinked. It was the first time he’d seen her do that. “I am called Kusanali.”

    Summary

    Due to a ley line mishap, Flins is unexpectedly transported to Mondstadt, with no immediate idea of where he is, or how he will get back. (Or, more pressingly, where he belongs in the first place.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    He sighed. “I’m afraid that I am, indeed, lost. The ley lines have whisked me to this land of yours without my say…”

    “It would seem so,” the being agreed lightly. “Your arrival confused the winds, for a moment, but they welcome you all the same.” […] He looked at Kyryll with a tilt of his head, assessing. There was that thread of familiarity again, and finally, Kyryll placed it.

    “You’re Barbatos,” he remembered. It… really has been so long… And the god of wind had only a visitor to the Tsar’s court, but he fit in with the fae all too well whenever he was around. It made for great entertainment all around. But those days were fuzzy with their distance.
