    [Childe]: hate to be the bearer of bad news my dude but u have the wrong number

    It’s late enough that Childe doesn’t expect an answer until the morning, so he’s leaning over to put his phone away when three little dots appear at the bottom of his messages.

    [Unknown Number]: Ah, apologies. I was intending to text my wife.

    Childe squints at his screen. Wouldn’t the dude know their wife’s phone number? Childe’s about to respond when those dots reappear, another reply cycling.

    [Unknown Number]: She passed away quite some time ago, and this was her number. I text it every year, but it seems as though there is finally someone on the other end. It wasn’t my intention to bother you, so, again, apologies.

    Well, that took a turn.

    While on an ad campaign in Liyue, an aging model named Childe gets a text message from a widower, wishing his dead wife a happy holiday. Lonely himself, Childe strikes up a conversation--will it lead to love?

    Summary

    The thing about coming into consciousness with a raging headache and no memories to grab onto is that everything is, to put it frankly, weird.

    Unfamiliar chatter awakened him, the voices were spewing something about mannequins, being alive, and someone doing CPR, whatever that was. Caelus thinks they’re talking about him. 

    Opening his eyes to a stranger’s face advancing near his own, and quickly at that, however, is way weirder.

    ---------------------

    A peek at the thoughts and scenes behind Caelus' head as he moves forward with his trailblazing journey.

    Summary

    Ratio notices Aventurine hasn't texted him back all day, something that feels incredibly out of character. For someone who lives wrapped in noise and spectacle, the absence of a message feels like a warning he does not yet understand.

    Upon recieving a call from Topaz he decides to go check on him, hoping to find him busy with a meeting, complaining about his phone going missing or some elaborate inconvenience dressed up as a joke.

    Instead, he finds a testament waiting on a spotless desk, instructions for a future without Aventurine and a single name written beneath every fortune: Dr. Veritas Ratio.

    Summary

    The mark is about the size of his palm, raised on his skin and glittering in the dim, bathroom light. The sparkle of a familiar constellation. It takes him a moment to remember the name: Lapis Dei.
    God of Stone.
    Ajax tries not to panic, but he can feel it crashing over him like a dark wave. Soulmates are supposed to be a myth, a fairy tale. Except now there’s a mark burned onto his skin.
    And his soulmate is the god he’s been sent to kill.

    The age of gods is over. As the humans of Teyvat industrialized, they have driven the adepti to near extinction and now hunt them for their energy.
    Thought dead for 300 years, the ancient god Morax has resurfaced, and Fatui Corp want his power for themselves. Their top assassin, Childe, embarks on his most dangerous mission yet—to hunt the Prime of the Adepti.
    Meanwhile, Morax is living a new life in disguise as the human Zhongli, working as an exorcist for Wangsheng Funeral Parlor. As one of the last of his kind, he must stay hidden at all costs.
    But the assassin and the god—bound to clash—couldn’t know that the strings of fate have coalesced to pull them together in a very different way....

    Summary

    Childe fainted. . . but what he wasn’t expecting was awaking in the lap of a God! She joked and teased, even questioned him about his favorite flowers. Childe was one of the Tsaritsa’s ruthless Harbingers, yet this mysterious God blatantly disregarded her very own life! It was all quite uncanny. The God hadn't even revealed her name. Finally, as she covered his eyes once again, she said, “I’ll see you again soon.”

    What was that weird dream? Childe should’ve thought further about it, but how could he? He had then woken up in Zhongli’s bed, under alluring silk flower, smelling sheets! How utterly embarrassing. . . Please Archons, don’t tell him Zhongli carried him bridal style through Liyue’s streets after he fainted.

    Two more weeks had then gone by before she returned. If only Childe had an inkling of what was to come. . .
