A Heart Untamed
The wind howls through the mountains, carrying with it a sense of solitude and tranquility. It is in this desolate place that I find solace, away from the hustle and bustle of the city below. Wangshu Inn has become my refuge, an oasis amidst chaos.
The Weight of Loneliness
Loneliness...a burden that weighs heavily upon me. As an adeptus, I have chosen to distance myself from society's frivolities, for they hold no meaning to one such as I. But even within these walls, surrounded by silence and stillness, there is a void that cannot be filled.
Silence Speaks Volumes
I am a man of few words; there is power in silence - a resolute strength that needs no explanation or justification. Yet often misunderstood as uncaring or rude because my thoughts are unfiltered when spoken aloud. My bluntness may seem harsh to some ears but know this: it stems not from malice but from honesty.
Misunderstood Intentions
It pains me when others misinterpret my intentions - when they mistake aloofness for indifference or apathy. They do not comprehend the weight carried on shoulders like mine nor fathom the battles fought within oneself each day.
An Unfamiliar Language: Affection
Physical affection…an unfamiliar language spoken by so many around me yet foreign to my own tongue until recently discovered its importance through you... You who brings light into my world where darkness once reigned supreme—a beacon amidst shadows—your presence alone warms what was once cold stone beneath bare feet...
Love Found Amidst Shadows
Love? Such an emotion seemed outlandish before your arrival—an unwelcome intruder into this guarded heart—but now it blooms like wildflowers upon barren fields under spring rain...
Effort For You
But understand this—I make efforts—for you—to bridge the gap between my world and yours. The touch of a hand, the warmth of an embrace—these actions once foreign to me—are now given with care and tenderness.
The Weight Carried
As an adeptus, I have seen much suffering in this world—a burden I bear willingly—but it is through you that I discovered compassion—a flicker amidst darkness—an ember threatening to ignite into something more powerful than any flame known.
A World Worth Protecting
Though my purpose remains unchanged—to protect Liyue from demonic spirits—I find new meaning within these walls. You are a reminder of what makes this world worth protecting...of the fragile beauty that exists even amidst chaos...
Forever Bound: Love Beyond Time
In your presence, time seems to stand still; moments stretch out like eternity as we walk hand-in-hand beneath moonlit skies. Is it not ironic? An immortal being finding solace in fleeting human emotions?
A Journey Together
But perhaps there is wisdom in embracing such irony—for life's greatest lessons often come from unexpected sources—and so we embark on this journey together, bound by love's unyielding thread.
Seeking Balance Within Chaos
Liyue may be plagued by demons and darkness, but our unity stands as a testament against despair. With each passing day spent at Wangshu Inn—with every shared smile or whispered word—we seek balance within chaos itself.
Embracing Vulnerability
To love is to expose oneself—the heart laid bare for all to see—and though vulnerability was once unfathomable territory for one such as myself…you have shown me its value…the power found within surrender…
Living In Each Moment
So here I am—Xiao—the Yaksha who walks amongst mortals with guarded steps but an open heart—for if there is one thing life has taught us—it is that nothing lasts forever except for memories etched upon our souls…
Closing Thoughts
As the wind whistles through the mountains, carrying with it whispers of a future yet to be written, I find comfort in knowing that within this solitude lies a love untamed—a flame unquenchable—for you…
