:Through the fog and mist:

you are still the best.

is one an invader or noble crusader?

i swear, someday, there'll be a celebration throughout oz that's all to do with me.

this weird quirk i've tried to suppress or hide is a talent that could help me meet the wizard.

it's time for her bubble to pop.

how do you stand it? i don't think i could.

lost your heart? well, we'll see about that.

so you lied to them?

the truth is not a thing of fact or reason, the truth is just what everyone agrees on.

how i hate to go and leave you lonely.

this is more than just a service to the wizard.

they'll never bring us down.

i will be loathing you my whole life long.

i hear she has an extra eye that always remains awake.

now that we're friends, i've decided to make you my new project.

i don't even know what trick i ought to try.

can he read the grimmerie?

that's the girl he chose.

you won't mind my leaving here tonight.

wishing only wounds the heart.

i would do anything for you.

show them exactly what's the score.

every way that you look in this city there's something exquisite you'll want to visit.

let's go down to the ozdust ballroom.

somehow i've fallen under your spell.

who can say if i've been changed for the better?

our children learn what we miss when we misbehave.

it's just a place that's familiar and "home" is just what we call it.

something bad is happening in oz.

kill the witch!

oh, you really don't have to do that.

that's alright, it's only just one night.

i've got to go appeal to her, express the way i feel to her.

what does it mean?

nothing grows for the wicked, they reap only what they've sown.

i know! that's what makes me so nice.

there's a strange exhilaration in such total detestation.

finally a day that's totally wicked-witch-free.

when i stop the wizard, all oz will applaud.

because i knew you, i have been changed for good.

life's more painless for the brainless.

no one lays a lily on their grave.

getting your dreams, it's strange, but it seems a little, well, complicated.

he could be that boy, but i'm not that girl.

don't we all know there's no place like home?

you will be popular.

maybe i'm brainless, maybe i'm wise.

i happen to be free tonight, after all.

so for once, i'm glad i'm heartless.

we animals are now being blamed for everything that goes wrong.

where will she strike next?

save us from the wicked.

it just shows, when you're wicked you're left only on your own.

shouldn't a girl who's so good inside have a matching exterior?

no good deed goes unpunished.

we share your loathing.

life is fraughtless when you're thoughtless.

i hear some rebel animals are giving her food and shelter.

make me feel that again!

i hope you're happy now that you're choosing this.

we can dance till it's light.

i want to go back to the way we were at school.

she died alone.

save him, please, just save him.

many years i have waited for a gift like yours to appear.

every so often we long to steal to the land of what-might-have-been.

why couldn't you have stayed calm for once, instead of flying off the handle?

i really hope you get it and you don't live to regret it.

they called me "wonderful".

i am a sentimental man who always longed to be a father.

would it be alright by you if i de-greenify you?

we couldn't be happier.

do you think the wizard is dumb? or, like munchkins, so small-minded?

what? but you know i can't read this..

look at her! she's wicked!

all helpful urges should be circumvented.

that's what they want you to do.

all that's required to live in a dream is endlessly closing your eyes.

that makes me so happy.

i don't know what you mean.

i guess we know there's blame to share.

i did know her.

it's clear we deserve each other.

have another drink of green elixir, and we'll have ourselves a little mixer.

surely now i'll matter less to you.

why does wickedness happen?

just look at me, not with your eyes, with theirs.

how can it be?

you're perfect.

what is this feeling, so sudden and new?

think how you will grieve for all you leave behind.

a man's called a traitor, or liberator.

the trouble with schools is they always try to teach the wrong lesson.

i hope you're happy, my friend.

have i actually understood?

we couldn't be happier, right, dear?

you can have all you ever wanted.

happy is what happens when all your dreams come true.

maybe, at last, i'll know why.

i see who you truly are, a girl on whom i can rely.

you can still be with the wizard.

wickedness must be punished!

they want you to become less callow, less shallow.

i hope you think you're clever.

what good is this chanting?

don't make me laugh.

well, i don't know if i believe that's true.

you'll never guess what just happened to me.

can't i make you understand you're having delusions of grandeur?

i'll be right there, waiting all night.

the witch of the west is dead!

there's been some confusion for, you see, my roommate is..

i need help believing you're with me tonight.

i can't just stand there grinning, pretending to go along with all this.

i hope you're happy in the end.

i mean, it goes with everything you own.

don't be offended by my frank analysis.

i know about popular.

you would do that for me?

when someone needs a makeover, i simply have to take over.

you'll be popular, just not quite as popular as me.

so here, out of the goodness of my heart.

others are good, but you're the goodliest.

know that you're here in my heart while i'm out of your sight.

i hope you're happy how you've hurt your cause forever.

so if you care to find me, look to the western sky.

are people born wicked? or do they have wickedness thrust upon them?

are you coming?

it's time to trust my instincts.

isn't it nice to know that good will conquer evil?

how does it feel being engaged?

that perfectly adorable munchkin boy just asked me out!

perhaps you're right.

there's that beautiful girl with the beautiful life.

i don't want it, i can't want it anymore.

oh, what a celebration we'll have today!

one more disaster i can add to my generous supply..

i want to feel that again.

i'm about to have a fun night.

my pulse is rushing.

there are wonders like i've never seen.

wicked is defeated by the good.

my head is reeling.

once you're with the wizard, no one thinks you're strange.

i'll teach you the proper ploys when you talk to boys.

if i can just make them believe in the truth.

i've got one more night left here in town.

maybe he is here to fulfill the prophecy.

like every family, they had their secrets.

nobody in all of oz, no wizard that there is or was is ever gonna bring me down.

it's not about aptitude, it's the way you're viewed.

we'll meet there later tonight.

come out, come out, she's gone!

why do i love this place that's never loved me?

together, we're unlimited.

it's only land, made of dirt and rock and loam.

welcome to shiz!

i've never really had a family.

no act of charity goes unresented.

however they try to destroy him, let him never die.

who in the world is she now?

don't remember that rush of joy.

i couldn't feel humbler.

we just want to tell you, we're all on your side.

you know what? let's dance!

i know i'm who i am today because i knew you.

i've just had a vision, almost like a prophecy.

isn't he wonderful?

once i'm with the wizard, my whole life will change.

trust me, it's fun!

i see that, once again, the responsibility to corrupt my fellow students falls to me.

there's been some confusion over rooming here at shiz.

there's no fight we cannot win.

you know black is this year's pink.

now whatever way our stories end, i know you have re-written mine by being my friend.

with this perfect finale, the cheers and the ballyhoo, who wouldn't be happier?

we were just talking about you, how you should join us tonight at the ozdust.

you did this? to make her happy?

though, of course, that's not important to me.

but from the moment the witch was born, she was, well, different..

i love helping others!

ah, my heart! it feels like it's, like it's shrinking!

i do believe i have been changed for the better.

that doesn't soften the ache we feel when reality sets back in.

i'm about to have the happiest night of my life.

goodness knows the wicked die alone.

come be how you want to and see how bright we shine.

i've striven to ensure that all of oz knows the story of your braverism.

i couldn't be happier, though it is, i admit, the tiniest bit unlike i anticipated.

when you can slough it off as i do, nothing matters, but knowing nothing matters.

i know exactly what they need!

i'll stand there with the wizard feeling the things i've never felt.

so much of me is made of what i learned from you.

one thing led to another, as it so often does.

oh, what a pair we'll be!

my face is flushing.

if we just keep fighting for it, we will win back and restore it.

let's start, 'cause you've got an awfully long way to go..

i'll be back for good someday.

you'll be with me like a handprint on my heart.

i hope you're happy.

i've heard it said that people come into our lives for a reason.

there's one way we'll know if it's true..

why should a land have so much meaning when dark times befall it?

i'll want nothing else 'til i die.

a rich man's a thief, or philanthropist.

i'm the one you want!

for the first time, i feel wicked.

we're engaged?

come with me, think of what we could do together.

we're gonna make you popular.

well, that's what i do best, makin' people happy.

i predict the wizard might make you his magic grand vizier.

maybe i could invite her..

oz is more than just a place.

when you feel you can't fight anymore just tell yourself there's no place like home.

though i'd never show it, i'd be so happy i could melt!

my heart's desire is for you to help the animals.

the baby is coming!

where are you? already dead or bleeding?

don't dream too far.

it's just life, so keep dancing through.

sure, i meant well.. well, look at what well-meant did.

they think he's wonderful.

heaven knows i'm not that girl.

if animals are losing the ability to speak, leaving oz, then someone's got to tell the wizard.

don't you dare say another word against her.

and just to clear the air i ask forgiveness for the things i've done you blame me for.

i hope you're proud how you would grovel in submission to feed your own ambition.

i've got something to confess.

i have a personal score to settle with the witch.

you deserve each other.

look what we've got, a fairy-tale plot, our very own happy ending.

i'll wake up my body and make up for lost time.

goodness knows the wicked's lives are lonely.

he couldn't look handsomer.

he's so thoughtful that way.

i think everyone deserves the chance to fly.

she hasn't done anything wrong!

but of course, i'll rise above it.

did that really just happen?

i'll hope you'll save a dance for me tonight.

it's really, uh, sharp, don't you think?

you know, we could be like a family.

it couldn't have been easy..

i'll show you what shoes to wear, how to fix your hair.

when you feel it's not worth fighting for, compel yourself.

i promise no good deed will i attempt to do again.

finally, something good.

my wildest dreamings could not foresee lying beside you with you wanting me.

none of it seems to matter anymore.

i know it sounds truly crazy.

nothing all that bad.

i hear her soul is so unclean pure water can melt her.

i'll be heartless killing her!

we're just two friends, two good friends, two best friends.

just you and i defying gravity.

i only wish there were something i could do for her to repay her.

there's no future for us as a pair.

why think too hard when it's so soothing?

i'll write at once to the wizard, tell him of you in advance.

if she'd let him fight his own battles when he was young he wouldn't be a coward today!

we will not live forever. that, i can foresee.

the wizard will see you now!

i had a feeling you were gonna say that.

tell them what she did to you.

i will be wonderful.

for today, we'll wander and enjoy.

it felt like he loved me then.

why invite stress in?

if that's love, it comes at much too high a cost.

that's it, i'm leaving oz while i can still speak the word "goodbye".

there's no place like home.

he's, um, he's gone to fetch me a refreshment..

where i come from, we got a whole lot of people who believe all sorts of things that aren't true.

i don't even know what i'm reading.

something has changed within me.

that's when they'll finally bid the wizard goodbye.

well, you have to learn.

just say you're sorry.

it couldn't happen here, in oz.

let's just say i loathe it all.

i'm through accepting limits 'cause someone says they're so.

i think we've found the place where we belong.

i'm wicked through and through.

i hear that she can shed her skin as easily as a snake.

it well may be that we will never meet again in this lifetime.

it's time to try defying gravity.

don't worry, i'm determined to succeed.

no, leave her alone!

though i do admit, it came on fast.

that's why we have a wizard.

was i really seeking good, or just seeking attention?

i'll be here holding you as long as you're mine

don't lose sight of who you are.

those who don't try never look foolish.

though they beat him, let him feel no pain.

together we'll be the greatest team there's ever been.

good news! the witch, she's dead!

there are bridges you cross you didn't know you crossed until you've crossed.

i'll make every last moment last as long as you're mine.

let us be grateful.

all of oz is ever on alert.

i'm through with playing by the rules of someone else's game.

is that all good deeds are when looked at with an ice-cold eye?

the good man scorns the wicked.

blind as you try to be, eventually, it's hard to unsee what you've seen.

the truth has a way of seeping on in beneath the surface and sheen.

see that tragically beautiful girl?

facts and logic won't unchoke 'em.

we are led to those who help us most to grow.

have another drink, my dark-eyed beauty.

let us be glad.

don't tell me you have nothing to wear.

now, at last, there's joy throughout the land.

no one mourns the wicked!

let's face it, right? who isn't less fortunate than i?

my road of good intentions led where such roads always lead.

i'm limited.

you can do all i couldn't do.

you've got me seeing through different eyes.

demons don't make promises.

we just closed the shop.

ok. i'll be right there.

i hate fish.

you bugs better run before i bite your heads off!

i'm ready.

you've done enough work.

i know how to help you now.

just shut up.

i can't live like this.

as soon as this war is over, i shall return.

wait a second, you're all gonna eat while i do all the work?

i'm fatter than ever, yet the wind blows right through me.

it's gorgeous!

i'll look forward to your return, big boy.

don't come in here.

i'm sick of being treated like some timid little old lady.

i feel terrible, like there's a weight on my chest.

you see? your moustache scares all the girls.

i brought you some warm milk. want a sip?

do you know how hard it is to do things when you're old?

i can't believe it's come to this.

i've never once been beautiful in my entire life!

tell me what's happening.

hey, i'm over here.

i was in big trouble back there.

i'd appreciate it if you didn't torment my friend.

are you hurt?

i actually like living here.

i've got a bad cold, i don't want you to catch it.

i'm sure you have some kind of spell on you.

i want to know what you want.

can you lead me to him?

i'm afraid you will have to leave now.

that is not what i meant when i asked for a place to stay.

now whatever you do, don't look down.

how did you get to be so kind?

i never should have let her in here.

all our fish were caught fresh this morning.

don't worry. he only preys on pretty girls.

i'm just setting things up so that all of you can live a comfortable life.

i see no point in living if i can't be beautiful.

you're so eloquent today.

be gentle with me, please.

that's so strange.

what possessed you to let them in the house?

if you'd like to do me one more favor...

thank goodness you're here!

you girls are so mean.

i have this weird feeling that you're going to leave.

you ok? i mean, you smell terrible.

don't hold it against them, they're actually not all that bad.

some big help you're gonna be.

you live around here?

don't worry, i can cook.

i can't stand how scared i am.

i searched everywhere for you!

oh, no, i'm not lost.

i just need a glass of water.

you promise to help me if i help you?

leave me alone.

no, he's fine. he's just throwing a tantrum.

you'll forgive me, won't you?

that's good to know.

i know where i am.

i can't remember the last time we had a real breakfast.

i am strictly forbidden to offer such assistance.

what time do you get off?

so, you are going away?

my own kind attacked me today.

he's acting like a big baby.

i can't do this.

we have to try something.

you should go home anyway and tell your king to stop this dumb war.

i can't do it by myself.

let's get a better look.

hey, don't worry. the ring that i gave you will guide you back home.

i've never seen the ocean before! it's beautiful!

it's not funny.

go away! quit following me!

i've had enough of this place!

you've been sighing all day.

here. want some more?

strapping, young men are so difficult to deal with.

you get back here right now!

sometimes he likes to go away for days on end.

i love you. you have to stay.

do i look ok?

need anything else?

i can be of help to you.

you're gonna have a very hard time getting rid of that one.

someone's got a fire going.

i feel so at home.

you are so lucky.

are you in pain?

you were alone?

i was so thrilled to have finally found someone talented enough to replace me.

i have to rest a bit.

are we going for a stroll?

i did what i was told.

i'm not trying to outwit you.

don't you love early morning markets?

i'll stand guard out front.

wait, you can't come up here!

too bad i'm not younger, or i'd lend you a hand.

we can do this, just act natural.

have you ever been in love before?

do you have a kettle?

only idiots believe what they read in the paper.

i've never seen it so close!

it's time to put an end to this idiotic war.

just go inside, go to bed.

he doesn't need your help.

i barely recognize the place.

now i'm too scared to go out!

gross. i feel sick.

didn't i teach you better?

you really want it that badly?

i'm too old to be treated like this!

i don't care if you're a monster.

you must be tired.

hey. looks like a little mouse lost its way.

what a handsome man.

i kind of missed you guys.

it's your life, do something for yourself for once, will you?

do you really want to spend the rest of your life in that hat shop?

what? i can't fly,

thought i'd drop by rather than sit through a dull war meeting.

you're beautiful!

now i'm repulsive.

i could have sworn i locked that door.

what a tacky shop.

i'm afraid the king would find him completely useless.

you are a natural.

i hate potatoes.

i love it when you talk like that.

there's no need to thank me, you don't owe me a thing.

curses are tough.

are you crazy? i can't move

you're killing yourself.

i told you it would collapse.

what a dump.

it looks like your true love is in love with someone else.

how would you like a bucket of cold water in your face?

what do you think?

maybe there's a cabin nearby.

don't look at me.

what if i dump a bucket of water on you?

who are your guests?

let's go, girls.

i think you and i need to have a nice, long, heart-to-heart chat.

you're by far the tackiest thing here.

quit bothering me, i've got a job to do.

i didn't mean to make you wait this long.

it wasn't a dream.

come on in, it's time to eat!

look what you've done to my hair!

you've got quite a nasty spell on you too.

he's gone.

pay up.

there you are, sweetheart. sorry i'm late.

i don't know what's gonna happen, but i'm sure it won't be good.

i'm not taking any orders from you.

i'm gonna take good care of you.

i'd never seen such a gifted student.

are you listening?

i'm tired. make some hot water for my bath.

i am very sorry to hear that.

this charm will guarantee your safe return.

he's such a lazy son,

i'm sick of being stuck out here

it always looks like that.

don't you want to have some bacon and eggs?

what's going on?

what on earth were you up to?

all right. i better get going then.

are you kidding?

it seems everyone in this family's got problems.

how old are you, anyway?

i specifically ordered you not to get carried away!

i've always hated turnips, ever since i was little.

nobody wants to go to war.

she's even cuter when she's scared.

i need some breakfast.

why don't you just give up?

i spent a lot of time here by myself when i was young.

when i think castle, this is not what i picture.

of course he did. he was trying to steal your heart!

i bet he's some kind of demon.

it looks like it's gonna rain.

do you have to keep smoking that?

so. we've got a lot of work to do.

you'd be good at it.

wait for me!

i was looking everywhere for you.

that's my girl.

you need to be more careful.

why did you make me come here if you were coming yourself?

why don't you come out with us this time?

that boy is extremely dangerous.

don't get alarmed, but i'm being followed.

give him a piece of your mind.

i would never work for that witch!

i'm just going to the bakery.

i hope you and your new husband will be very happy.

you look so much older.

if you're a demon, how do i know i can trust you?

i just wanted to make sure that you were doing ok.

that was the most fun i've had in ages.

i got you some new clothes too, but you can open them later.

i missed you.

where are you going?

it's a trap.

if i ever get my hands on that witch, i'm going to wring her fat neck!

where to? i'll be your escort this evening.

i'll just stay in bed all day, so you go on.

you're gonna be fine.

we've got a good lead now.

what did you do?

do you really think i'd let a witch in here?

it's a present for you.

you're being so obedient.

i'm so sorry, but that would be confidential information.

well, the nice thing about being old is you've got nothing much to lose.

what will happen to you?

i better finish this, you go and have fun.

just keep following that light and you should be there before dark.

you're scaring me.

you're in love.

that was really kind.

i had him escort you here.

come on! you should feel sorry for me!

he was so kind to me.

told you we should've stayed put.

i better be going.

he must have been a wizard then.

looks like we have yet another addition to the family.

he's my errand dog.

she keeps staring at me, it's freaking me out.

don't give me that.

it's dangerous out there.

that is one bad curse.

did you hear what happened to that girl?

you obviously don't know what these people are like.

i'm getting angry.

what on earth happened to you?

so then, how are you feeling?

i should really get back to work.

‘ how about i take you home? ’

‘ who do you fight for? ’

‘ you can relax. we’re safe here.’ 

‘ are you threatening me? ’

‘ i told you to leave me out of this. ’

‘ i guess it runs in the family, huh? ’

‘ you’re leaving already? ’

‘ that sounds dangerous. i’m in!’ 

‘ what do you wish for? ’

‘ you look like you just saw a ghost.’ 

‘ don’t look at me like that. ’

‘ we can just sit here. we don’t have to talk.’ 

‘ you can’t get rid of me that easy. ’

‘ do you want something for the pain? ’

‘ can i have some cash? ’

‘ i know you’re dangerous, but i also know you won’t hurt me.’ 

‘ that’s quite a scratch you’ve got there.’ 

‘ when was the last time you slept? ’

‘ i know who you are. i know what you’ve done. ’

‘ you’re being followed. pretend you know me.’ 

‘ you never should’ve left. ’

‘ i think i’m getting sick. ’

‘ snap out of it! ’

‘ yes i killed them, but i did it for you.’ 

‘ don’t treat me like a child. ’

‘ how does it feel to be in love? ’

‘ surprised to run into you here. ’

‘ how many people have you killed? ’

‘ i didn’t want to come, but i need your help. ’

He still hadn't believed the news when it had first broken. Durin, reborn. The dragon that had been unleashed during the Cataclysm stood before him, reborn as a young man as unassuming as any Adeptus, were he in Liyue. But in Dan Heng's own endless quest for books to stock his bookstore's shelves with had brought him to Mondstadt. Which had led to this unexpected meeting, to put it mildly.

" Ah, hello "

Wings gently twitch against his side seeing the stranger. Tail flicking behind him as he adjust his hold on a stack of books he found. Bright red eyes peaking over the side of the tower towards the him curiously. Another dragon ?

“that version of me is gone.”

“this changes nothing.”

“i was counting on it.”

“watch me.”

“it wasn’t like this before.”

“i can’t pretend anymore.”

“it’s a promise.”

“say it again.”

“don’t do this.”

“you’re late.”

“this is your last chance.”

“i made my choice long ago.”

“it was over the moment you left.”

“i had to see it for myself.”

“i’ve made worse mistakes than this.”

“you changed.”

“tell me the truth.”

“you look like you’ve seen a ghost.”

“you owe me.”

“you followed the wrong path.”

“this isn’t over.”

“i warned you.”

“you’re hiding something.”

“you’ll regret this.”

“they recognized the weapon before they recognized the person holding it.”

“is this a threat?”

“some things can’t be fixed.”

“help me understand.”

“it ends however you decide.”

“you don’t understand.”

“you can’t stop this.”

“you came back.”

“it doesn’t have to end like this.”

“you’re making a mistake.”

“we never make it out clean.”

“maybe it was the only one.”

“you remember me, don’t you?”

“you lied to me.”

“you’re shaking.”

“silence would have been kinder.”

“you shouldn’t have followed me.”

“i trusted you.”

“say my name.”

“i’m not afraid.”

“you knew, didn’t you?”

“is this goodbye?”

“things change.”

“you don’t have to be alone.”

“i mean it this time.”

“that was your first mistake.”

“you’re not who i remember.”

“we don’t have much time.”

“was any of it real?”

“that’s not what you said before.”

“listen to me.”

“and yet, here we are.”

“put it down before this gets worse.”
