( 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.]

[mitternachtprinzessin]

Still, if I can aid in any way, I lend my aid here as I did in Mondstadt. Locales may change but missions do not.

( Fischl bows her head a little. )

This is my solemn vow.

[mitternachtprinzessin]

We need only to arrange the date and time! I can send you my personal details privately?

( Yes, a meeting! This is most excellent. )

[mitternachtprinzessin]

Yes indeed! Cloud the Adventurer! Will you be working with the Guilds once they open or are you seeking other work?

( He sounds suited to the guilds, same as she, but she's curious as to what he'll do here in the city. )

[mitternachtprinzessin]

I would seek other ways. It is only a final resort and one I would not wish to use unless I had to use it.

( Fischl's tone is soft and sad. )

I would not want to hurt anyone or destroy anything.

[essenceborn]

Agreed! Nice to officially have you as a friend, Fischl. And Oz.

[ social success is the sweetest success ]

[wayofthehousekeeper]

[ Thoma's own expression softens at the heartfelt expression. ]

... It sounds like you've got it pretty tough. I don't know if there's anything I can really do to help here, but if anything does come up, please feel free to reach out.

I can understand the feeling of wanting to return to your homeland, and I'll do anything I can to help someone else realize that same dream.

[phoenixblessed]

Kaeya has?

[Ah... well, Kaeya would, he supposes. Fischl would be safe enough with him if something happened.]

Mm. Good. Make sure she gets a scarf and some gloves, Oz.

[Fuss, fuss...]

I think we have enough to be concerned about without any of us falling ill.

[outofoffice]

[ Jean currently at home alone holding Mondstadt together with nothing but the power of superior work ethic and lesbianism ]

It's an ambitious proposition to be sure, but have you considered founding a branch of the Adventurer's Guild here?

[glidinglight]

[ D'AWW Fischl. ♥ ]

My heart is warmed by such kindness. I could not ask for a more loyal friend or benevolent Princessin.

[icepatch]

[Kaeya, meanwhile, has his horse. He stables her near the gates and makes his way into Nightwake on foot from therein. Thankfully, it wasn't long before he spotted her. He grinned down at her, giving her a formal bow as well.]

My lady. I am glad to see you are unhurt. And hello to you, too, Oz. Was the journey to Nightwake without incident?

[mitternachtprinzessin]

I am most glad. It would be lonely indeed without friends to help me make my place in this world.

( A friend! Most excellent! )

[mitternachtprinzessin]

( Thoma is being impossibly kind and in that way, he reminds her of the other Knights of Favonius who always seem to be looking out for her. They keep her safe even if she's a part of them and she is happy to know there are others here who will do that here in this place. )

I will do my best to remind you of Mondstadt when I can. It is a fair place and one I have come to love. If we love it here, we are not far from home.

[mitternachtprinzessin]

I will make sure she has plenty of warm things. There is nothing that she will lack, Master Diluc.

( Fischl nods, agreeing emphatically with that. She doesn't know Diluc as well as she knows the Knights of Favonius but everyone in Mondstadt knows of Diluc even if only by reputation alone. She feels very safe knowing he's here. )

Will you be continuing your winery business here while we are on a sojourn away from fair Mondstadt?

[mitternachtprinzessin]

That is what I hope to do! Guild work is what I know best and I know there are others here who would be good at it too. There's plenty for adventurers to explore and certainly the people will need things from the segments.

( Fischl may be very young but she is a capable investigator and would be bored without something to do similar to her work back home. )

Of course, every place has need of a bard, does it not? You won't lack for work.

[mitternachtprinzessin]

Everyone cares for you, Lumine From-the-Stars. There is no one in Mondstadt who hasn't been touched by your kindness and generosity, least of all me. I would be honored to help.

( Fischl wishes she had a sibling, someone to love her when all others have left her, but the least she can do is find Lumine's brother. )

[mitternachtprinzessin]

There were no incidents at all! I found the journey easy and it was nothing for a capable adventurer such as I.

( There's a prideful lift to her chin but deep down, Fischl is glad that Kaeya is here and can help watch out for her. She would hate to be all alone. )

No dangers were encountered.

[niwabi]

Oh, you have an electro vision? You would be most welcome in my homeland, especially now that we've opened up our borders.

[ Just watch out for the annoying puzzles, Fischl. ]

You're right! There's six islands in Inazuma, all of them being unique in their own ways. Narukami Island is like our main land, it's where our Archon resides. There's so many beautiful sakura trees all around the island and of course, we have a ton of beaches.

[glidinglight]

[ Having a sibling is great--right up until they abandon you and start working with evil forces to upend the known order of the world for mysterious and possibly nefarious reasons. ]

Well, just remember if you need it, my sword is yours as well.

[mitternachtprinzessin]

Beaches? Our beaches border the Cider Lake. Yours border an ocean though, do they not? You have to use a proper boat to get across them and cannot simply swim them?

( Fischl has swum Cider Lake many times but she thinks that most in the Knights of Favonius have at some point. Anyone who took commissions from the Adventurer's Guild, for sure. )

[mitternachtprinzessin]

I will never forget. You are, after all, our Honorary Knight.

( There's only ever been one of those in the history of the Knights of Favonius and Lumine is that person. She is unique to all of Mondstadt. )

[sultanofsquat]

If everything pans out, delivery boy. [ If he were in person with her, he'd gesture idly with one hand at his side as he elaborates. ] Back in Kyoto, I'd meant to start a business up. But I'm more used to the technology of this kinda world.

[ Meaning he has an excuse to get a motorcycle wheeeeeeeeeeeee ]

[icepatch]

[The pride was well earned, in Kaeya's book. But he knew she was likely worried. At the end of the day, Fischl was just a young teen and while she had her Vision and Oz, she was still alone in an unknown world. But, not anymore.]

Good, good. Then, shall we? [He gestured forward. While he wasn't quite as familiar with all the shops in Nightwake just yet, he preferred the quiet of Sunwaning, this was also the place he had also gotten his first garments. He was a little too unfamiliar with Inazuman fashion so this was a better compromise in his book.] I don't know if we will find any particular cloaks here, but coats. And I believe they will suit both your tastes and your needs.

[glidinglight]

Have you been anywhere to eat yet, m'lady?

[divino]

World-to-world travel is more common than I thought. I assume she's not a dragon since you said the only one was the Dragon of Stormterror's Lair...

[ What other kind of being would even have that power? Maybe she's an emblem like Marth? ]

Did she follow us all to this world?

[mitternachtprinzessin]

Delivery boy? They're important but I wouldn't think a mercenary would want to deliver things. Tired of fighting?

( Fischl thinks it is a valid thing to be tired of fighting, tired of adventuring. One day, she might want to hang up her bow - though not before she finds her way home. )
