20.27 PM, Unknown.
‘Where the hell am I?’
Under the night star filled sky, lost and confused, the former Archon hydro looked around her surroundings. As the cold night wind swept through her, she began to step up and walks the path forward. Furina, who’s still a bit dizzy from the after effect of teleportation, encourage herself to firmly just follows a dirt path that whatever it leads to.
‘Are there no any settlements around here? I’m… hungry and tired.’
She’s also thankful to the god’s that there’s no wild predators from the where she landed. It will be troublesome if there’s any because in this unknown place, she can’t summon her sword nor cast her skills. Another one to add, there is no hilichurls or any elemental monsters around here. Weird. She thought to herself.
As she continues onwards, she begins to feel more… free, she feels like gained more freedom than before. Contrary if she in Fontaine, she’s free, yes from all those 500 years but Furina also believe that there’s something that is still holding within her. She doesn’t know why nor she really care for it.
With the moon and stars illuminated the land below, steps after steps, and the path that she followed seems has reached its end, Furina found herself near cliff.

Nobody knows why, but the news came together that something big happened in northern Teyvat lands. Rumors says a fierce battle took place there. and witnesses suggest a golden-haired traveler and some of his companion, battled against a-
As she lost in her thoughts while looking into the vast ocean, Furina suddenly hears a buzzing noise from behind. It got closer, and clearer. and she sees it, an aircraft.
As the aircraft circling above her with the bright light that shines to furina, making her dizzy and she tries to block it, she began to lightly step back. the crew onboard finally turned off the lights, and Furina sigh in relieve. The aircraft finally makes a landing, touches down just few feet away from Furina.
‘Are they enemies? I can’t defend my self right now…’ the thought of running away seems good, but-
As Furina readies herself to run away, three people came out from the aircraft, “Miss Furina!” ’Huh? That voice seems familiar…’ she looked back at them and yes, they are looked familiar from somewhere, yet she can’t recall at the moment.
“You’ve come long way to here, Miss Furina.”
“Have we meet before?”
