    Summary

    Aite let out a nervous laugh. “Of course, Lord Morax, I have coexisted peacefully alongside the Guili Assembly for centuries. I would not dare—”

    “But you did,” Morax cut her off, voice soft but imbued with telluric power. Once again, the limestone beneath his feet shivered. “Their dreams were eaten. This is your work. Your mark is plainly on it.”

    “Allow me to explain,” Aite said, voice sickly-sweet — just like the stench of overripe fruit that pervaded her hall. “I believe I know how this…mistake…was made.”

    “Oh? Then explain.”

     

    Xiao first meets Morax when he is still enslaved to his first master. He does not expect kindness, especially not when his goddess puts him forth as the culprit in the massacre of a human settlement on a contested border.

    Morax, though, surprises him.

    Summary

    As Morax’s marshal, Bosacius personally supervises the training of the new yaksha recruits. He isn’t sure that the young and skittish Xiao has what it takes, but he makes a point to give everyone a chance.

    Or almost everyone. Bosacius has mixed feelings about the ex-bloodhound that Morax saved and is now tending to in one of his domains, especially as Morax mentioned in passing that this mysterious Adeptus might later want to join their ranks.

    Of course, both these issues are completely unrelated.

    Summary

    After an incident where Chongyun's parents find out he still hasn't gotten his yang energy in control enough to preform proper exorcisms, they ban him from his work. Desperate to get strong enough to do what he loves, the young exorcist hatches a plan to find Conqueror of Demons, Adeptus Xiao, and ask him to train him. With much effort this goal is achieved, but things don't exactly go as planed. It'll all be worth it in the end for Chongyun to become stronger, or at least that's what he hopes.

    Or: Xiao takes on Chongyun as an apprentice and bad things happen

    Summary

    “Aw, does that mean you aren’t friendly with exorcists, then?”

    “I wish death upon them all. I would enact it myself if I could stomach going anywhere near them for even the briefest period of time.”

    “I see,” says Venti. He observes as Xiao takes another swing from his wine glass with an uncharacteristic enthusiasm. "So then what’s the deal with that exorcist kid?"

    Venti watches, captivated, as Xiao chokes violently mid-drink, tries to suppress his coughing, and proceeds to set down his glass guardedly, in some truly misguided attempt at nonchalance. "...I have no idea what you're talking about."

    "Ah. Well, my mistake, then!"

    or

    Chongyun blacks out for half a week during a particularly unfortunate yang episode, and wakes up in Mondstat. Needless to say, these are not the ideal conditions under which he would've preferred to reconvene with his former, highly-esteemed (adeptus) mentor.
