Summary
Widening streams of dark, glistening water surge upwards towards the altar. Slowly, a hulking figure forms where they coalesce, floating an inch above the stone’s surface. It is massive, larger than any mortal, clad in a cape made of stars with wicked talons the length of a man’s palm. The outlines of its being are fuzzy. Like it isn’t entirely corporeal.
This must be the monster that Zhongli has come to seek. Its face is concealed by a mask of glistening crimson as if painted with blood. A single blue pupil-less eye glints as its head snaps toward Zhongli. Its mouth doesn’t move, but its voice still echoes through the cave:
Where is the sacrifice?
“I am the sacrifice,” Zhongli says, calmly.

Summary
"That is [soulmate] mark, my child."
The words of the Tsaritsa echoed in Childe's mind like an endless bell, striking at the resilience of his mind until they trembled and collapsed on the horizon.
Childe stood frozen in place.
"...no way..." His voice trembled, shaky.
"It is the truth, Tartaglia, my Eleventh.”
"You have an unbreakable bond with the head of Liyue, something that no one can deny now.”
No. “Your Majesty, this is impossible." Childe laughed helplessly, shaking his head and burying his face in one hand.
Why is it possible?
It shouldn't have appeared...Should not appear...

The sign of a [Soulmate Bond] always appears when a person reaches the age of 15, with only about half of Teyvat's population possessing it. The ages of those linked by a [Soulmate Bond] do not necessarily have to be equal, and even their positions are a random arrangement of fate.At the age of 24, ten years after escaping the Abyss, Childe—who vehemently opposed [bonding] and was always glad he didn't have it—was astonished when a [bonding] mark suddenly appeared, and the connection's target left him even more bewildered: Geo Archon Rex Lapis.
