Haha, you're too kind! But I do enjoy being in the audience. The place I came from was quite fond of public performances, with some very talented storytellers.
They always leave off on the worst cliffhangers, though. There's one--Tea Master Liu Su--I think he makes it a point to do just that whenever I have time to stop by.
[He shakes his head, but he's smiling.]
Do your travels keep you? [From catching some entertainment, that is.]
Haha, well, it takes the whole village just to survive the winter, where I'm from. Many of us don't do anything terribly exciting. [fake russia be like] But you're right, it's one of the largest in the nation.
[OH... he looks curious for a moment, but ultimately decides not to ask, in favor of nodding.]
Of course. [BANDAGES... restricting. He gets it.] It's a shame our hosts didn't allow us a few more belongings, Liyue's pharmacies make quite effective salves. [He smiles, though, pushing his bangs out of his face.] They smell terrible, though.
Oh, I'm familiar with the type. [ With a smile of her own. ] I also travel with an apothecary, and while his salves and medicines are effective, they're hardly ever pleasant to use.
[ Alas, no Alfyn to fuss over her here. ]
However, I don't intend to let this delay me for long.
[Normally he'd quip that the best medicine is simply not getting hit, but that seems a little insensitive to say when she's clearly injured, so he will not. Instead!]
Haha, no, you don't seem the type who would. But I'm glad to hear it.

You do seem to have traces of that air yourself.

But yes. I travel with seven others and we all have goals of our own, so we so rarely stay in the same place for very long.

I'm glad to hear you have comrades, though. Journeys are always easier with them--well, if you get along.

The bruise... is newly acquired, is it not?

But, ah, yes! He smiles, tilting his head.]

I'm afraid I don't have any weapons on me, though, if that's alright.

[ Oh. ]
In a few days, perhaps? I'd like to make sure I can move without too much trouble.
[ Damn bandages. ]
