Lol your genshin aus keep the hyper fixation fresh. Xiao vs Mahito wasn’t something I knew I needed in my life but now that you’ve presented the possibility… I’m a bit curious what kind of reaction the adepti would have towards cursed spirits of Mahito’s caliber (even if Shiki killed most of them). Liyue currently ondefvoing a national emergency (what’s the death toll of that village?)
And may your Xiao come home in the next 10pull
The adepti would probably equate the cursed spirits to something along the lines of 'powerful demonic spirits.' More on that in the future if I ever get around to writing another snippet for this haha.
The death toll is high, but there are still a handful of survivors from the village. As for the village itself, it's abandoned in the aftermath of this incident.
... If we think of this in game terms, it's probably a world quest for the Traveler whenever they come across the ruins lol.
