un: mitternacht; video

( The video focuses on a slender girl dressed in purple and black, bangs over one eye covered with an eyepatch and a purple raven alongside her that doesn't seem quite corporeal. He is, in fact, the most leal servant of the Prinzessin der Verurteilung and is able to speak on her behalf when mundane subjects elude her.

Now, however, this new place shall see the Prinzessin in all her glory and know her purpose. )

Greetings, fair citizens! I come to you from the most grand city of Mondstadt, a place that is worthy enough to be my residence before I reclaim my true home in Immernachtreich. It is my sincere hope that all of you will be my servants in this glorious matter and ---

( It is now that the raven at her side begins to speak with both lower and more logical voice. )

Prinzessin, it would be best if you simply learned this new land before recruiting those among you to help you seek your homeland. We have a purpose here to serve others, not serve ourselves.

( Fischl cocks her head, considering it, then nods rapidly before giving everyone a broad smile. )

My name is Fischl and I will help liberate this land through my touch!

[Fischl basically LARPs 24/7. Go with it lol.]

[ He gives a bit of a laugh in turn, sheepishly rubbing at his neck with his free hand. ]

Windblume huh... I grew up there as a kid, but it's been a long time since I was last back. I've been living in Inazuma for a long while now.

[There is a girl, speaking in a very dramatic tone over the video feed. But she is dressed in purple and black, with an eyepatch and what looks to be a spectral raven as her familiar. As someone who is interested in the occult, fantastic, and gothic, he's actually intrigued. It's what makes him reply in the first place.]

Is Prinzessin a title you bear from your world?

Oh. Uhm. Well, I was in Sumeru last. --And I did, actually! Were you hoping to play a round?

But of course, mein prinzessin! Where the citizens of Mondstadt go, so, too, must wind and song follow! And what a relief to see that the prinzessin's loyal retainer has made it safely as well.

[ If Vision holders came here without their Visions that would be . . . bad. ]

Ah yes, of course, Sumeru. I have not reached there in my travels because Mondstadt holds my attention of late. The game from there, however, passes my time well and if you have cards, I should like to play when you have the time.

( Fischl has not made it down to Sumeru because she's entirely too busy with the Knights of Favonius and planning her egress from Mondstadt back to her ancestral homeland but Genius Invokation TCG has stolen her attention. )

( Oz shifts a little and gives a nod that would be well-worth any courtier if he were human and not a raven construct. )

It is my greatest pleasure to accompany the prinzessin wherever her travels may find her. It is good to know that the best bard in all of Mondstadt will be here because where there is a wind and a song, so Mondstadt lives.

( Fischl nods eagerly. )

Mondstadt has become so dear to me while I have abided there. I would feel very lonely if her winds failed to follow me here.

Good, good! Hm... I believe by the time both of us arrive it will be around lunch. Why don't we aim for around noon, have something to eat, and take it from there. Would that be sufficient for the Prinzessin?

[To be honest, despite whatever they find in Nightwake, Kaeya would probably still try to find something suitable here in Sunwaning to send to her. It was quite the fashion forward area, he was coming to find and why not dote on her a little?]

So far-flung from our Mondstadt! Wherever the wind blows, Mondstadt is still with you! That is what the Anemo archon says.

( Fischl has never seen the Anemo archon and does not know his name other than Barbatos but everyone in Mondstadt says that he is on the wind. )

Another world? You must have been summoned for great reasons. I, of course, have been summoned to this place in order to save it. I must have because the last place I was, Mondstadt, was a temporary home for me as well.

( Fischl looks at Oz and he starts to explain, his voice lower and more calm than Fischl's. The raven often has a better grip on reality. )

The Prinzessin only means that she has been seeking her homeland for a long time and while in our last home, she was a knight who helped defend her city. Is it the same for you?

My full title is Prinzessin der Verurteilung and this is my loyal retainer, Oz. You may call me Fischl, though, because we have now made acquaintance with one another.

( Fischl is looking at him keenly, interested in this raven who is talking to her through video. She has never seen a talking one other than Oz. )

It will be most perfect, Calvary Captain!

( It doesn't take Fischl long to make her way to Nightwake because she does have inherent navigational skills because she's used to traversing Mondstadt through her work in the Knights of Favonius. She isn't an Outrider like Amber but she does cover a lot of ground as an investigator.

It is most simple to pick out Kaeya from the crowd and when she sees him, her face brightens considerably. She's been a little off-kilter since coming here and someone she respects like Kaeya makes her feel safer. )

Captain Kaeya! It is most pleasant to see you today.

Autumn, which might be part of the reason I didn't mind it so much. The mild weather is the best for traveling around on foot, which I've been doing nonstop since I woke up here.

I take it you were cut off from your world, too? I'm trying to figure out if the Fell Dragon had anything to do with all the portals opening to this world.

[ Otherwise, he's completely stumped on how they ended up here. ]

Prinzessin... A princess of the dark realm?

[The way she speaks makes it clear that she is someone of great importance! And given her appearance and her shadowy familiar, she looks to be a princess of a dark realm. Fumikage has no reason to doubt her, so he inclines his head politely.]

I see... It is an honour to meet you, Prinzessin Fischl. As a creature of darkness, it brings me joy to speak to another of the shadows. My own title is the Jet-Black Hero: Tsukuyomi, though my acquaintances know me as Fumikage Tokoyami.

Fell Dragon? The only dragon I know of is the Dragon of Stormterror's Lair in western Mondstadt. What is this Fell Dragon of which you speak? I know no dragon that can open portals.

( If such a thing exists, it is a dire and deadly thing and they must find a way to defeat it. )

Hehehe . . . Mondstadt is blessed indeed to be the land prinzessin chooses to rest her head.

And now this land, too, will stand in awe of her majesty! With the aid of your glory, their struggles will almost certainly be laid to rest.

It is my greatest pleasure to meet you, Fumikage Tokoyami. You sound as if you are a person of great importance in your own world and yet recognize my position of Prinzessin...I believe we will be great allies.

( Fischl is enamored of the idea of this raven who speaks because the only one she's known is Oz. )

I offer you my friendship and loyalty.

[ Oh, that makes him painfully, obviously wistful. ]

Oh... I haven't heard that kind of saying for a long time. I nearly forgot it.

Thanks for reminding me.

Talking bird! Dunk. Where can I get one of those?

Thank you, Prinzessin. In my world, I am training to become a pro hero who seeks to aid those in need from the shadows. So in exchange I would like to offer you friendship and protection, should the need ever arise.

[Is he going a little far with this? A little. But it's not often he gets to fully indulge in silly antics like this. Plus, he believes he's met a real princess here, so of course he's going to roll with it.]

How 'bout that. Same here. Apparently.

[ As far as "saving the world" goes, that is. If they can believe Olwen and his lot in the first place. For all intents and purposes, Cloud is remaining optimistically cautious for now. But it's still nice to hear that there are others like him and Zack, even Ayaka, who've experienced multiple worlds. With time, he's going to feel less reserved about talking of his prior ventures.

Oz speaks up once more, and Cloud leans against his kitchen counter, phone in hand as he looks down at his device with a slightly furrowed brow. He sounds more...direct.

Prinzessin, huh. He has no reason to believe ~~she's LARPing~~ otherwise about her royal status. ]

Nothing quite as, uh... [ How do you talk to royalty again? ~~C'mon, Cloud. You stumbled into an acting role in the last world.~~ ] lofty, as your... [ Almost got it, Cloud. ] ...highness' duty.

I spent most of my time as a sword for hire.

I think we'll definitely have time to play a few rounds. Have you found a place to live yet?

[He chuckles a little at her greeting - not much, just a soft hum of amusement in the back of his throat - but there's just something about it that is so specifically a taste of home that he can't help it.]

I'm staying in Sunwaning, for the moment. Time will tell if I grow too restless to remain there.

[Or if having Kaeya that close by turns out to be a bit too much, too soon.]

And what of yourself?

[Mami is totally onboard with playing along. This is the nerd who calls her attacks in battle, after all.]

Haha, well, I would be honoured to fight at the side of one so worthy. Let us protect the citizens of this world and our own as best we can~

I have found myself lodging in Stormreach. It is so different from Mondstadt but I desire a more dramatic place to station myself while I search for home and save this world. I need to update my wardrobe, though, for a princess never thinks of packing her own things and I have nothing warm.

( Fischl had arrived with only two sets of clothing, both only suitable for the temperate climes of Mondstadt, and it seems she will be living elsewhere for a while. Oz looks to her and then looks to Diluc. )

Calvary Captain Kaeya has offered to take the prinzessin to see the shops and find more appropriate things to wear so she won't catch a chill. I'm afraid she has her mind on other things and never thinks to handle the mundane ones.

I have found myself in Stormreach where the climate is cold but the atmosphere is most agreeable to me. I shall have to re-outfit myself in clothing more appropriate to my new home.

( Fischl is far from the mild climate of Mondstadt and while she likes the edge of Autumn and Winter, it does remind her of Dragonspine and how one has to dress warmly to explore there. )

What of you? Where have your traveling feet found you this time?
