    Summary

    “Master Diluc, are you quite alright?” Venti asks.

    Diluc turns back around. “You,” he begins, and then, “I—”

    He stares at the sink again, then back at Venti, who just blinks, seeming quite bemused.

    “How is wine-cursing a thing you can do now?!” Diluc demands.

    “Hey,” Venti says, mock-crossly. “I cultivated the God of Wine title very diligently, I'll have you know that. Unfortunately, it never gave me any useful abilities— like the power to turn water to wine! Wouldn't that have been amazing? But no, that never manifested.”

    Barbatos is the God of Wind and Freedom, but also of Wine and Song. He thus has a sliding scale of wine-curses from "I lay a plague upon your house" and "may all the wine you drink be ever-so-slightly over-oxidized." He absolutely uses his wine-cursing abilities on drunk assholes at the bar.

    Summary

    "Acting Grand Master," Lawrence says, "we have another noise complaint."

    Kaeya leans against the doorway, watching as Lawrence places at report atop Jean's desk. Sighing, Jean tiredly rubs at her brow, before offering a curt nod.

    "Thank you," she says. "I will deal with the complaint shortly."

    Pushing off the doorway, Kaeya saunters past Lawrence, picking the report up, and casually flipping through it. Jean shoots him a stern look, but does not tell him to put it back down.

    "It's from one of the sisters," Kaeya observes, and reads aloud. "Perpetrator scaled statue outside church while drunk and sang loudly for three hours."

    Lawrence lets out a delicate cough.

     

    As Weinlesefest draws near, Kaeya notices a new mystery in the city of wind and wine — Jean and Diluc have been oddly permissive with Venti since the Stormterror Incident. Mischievously determined to get to the bottom of this, Kaeya soon makes a discovery that threatens to upend everything he knows. In the process, he must reconcile what it means to be Khaenri'ahn, and to love a city that belongs to a god.

    Summary

    A murder mystery and fantasy adventure, with a choice at the end of every chapter for you to make!


    Tighnari was a cautious man. A simple botanist, running a simple florists’ in a simple town. Dark skin and red eyes lingered in his mind’s eye, but he did his best to bat the imagery away. He kept his head down, and he lived a simple life.

    Cyno was far less cautious. He believed in justice, and he believed a simple life was a life of cowardice. If you could go through an unjust world with no altercations, you were part of the problem.

    When DCI Xiao requests Tighnari's assistance, with a murder case involving strange flowers, the simple botanist nearly refuses. Nearly. Accepting, however, might bring more trouble than he bargained for...

    Mystery after mystery litters the journey of our unlikely heroes. Who is the murderer? What is Cyno hiding? And what does Ancient Teyvat have to do with any of it?
