What a coincidence, I saw the green boy used to be with dragon in the city!
I tracked him down by elemental footprints but it disappeared in a wall, I climbed on the wall, then I found him in the square with the stone Anemo Archon sculpture standing in it.
He strummed lyre as he told a story about a dragon, it is said, dragon is in pain and need someone to rescue it. And he said I was the one scared dragon away, me?
He is a bard named Venti, the friend of that stormterror Dvalin. A dragon’s friend, is he also the terror of this city?
It seems he know something of Stormterror, I show him the tear of dragon, to my surprise, the polluted tear was cleared! By me? He said I was like a hero should be wrote into a poem, unprovoked kindness is either cunning or theft. Dragon will burn away in his anger? What you expect me to do?
I suggested him turn himself in along with that dragon, he said he has another plan then left, I must keep an eye on him, a potentially dangerous weirdo. Especially his voice sounded a bit familiar…
I followed him leave the city, to the big tree of Windrise.
Venti stood in front of the great tree, so much melancholy and nostalgia in his eyes, what he was thinking? He said Anemo God Barbatos has gone many years ago while Liyue’s Geo god and Inazuma’s Electro God are still present. We was talking we a eye of storm appeared.
I told him Lisa told me the past of Dragon Dvalin, then he was willing to tell me more, Dvalin was influenced by abyss mege, so as he, but he was purified by the wind through the branch of this great tree.
It was my interruption of his communication with Dvalin cased his poisoned he said, guilt and regret buried me.
To make up for it, he need me to go to Mondstadt Cathedral to find the Holy Lyre der Himmel. Fine it’s my fault, so I ought to do this.
When I came back to the city, Katheryne called out to me and hopped I could give their guild a hand, some domains need to explore with no deadline, I shall convict my friend to do a favor. Oh, it’s a new function that I can acquire more resources, expledition!
Just a small digression, let’s get back on the way towards Cathedral.
I met Venti in front of the cathedra gate, he said the Holy Lyre was once used by Barbatos, with it he can purify Davlin, he tried to win me over with his earnest eyes, while I just saw eyes with a lot of things hide.
This Holy Lyre is the treasure of Mondstadt, enshrined deep with in the cathedral, will they be willing to lend to us?
Entered the cathedral, I saw the sunlight shinning throw colorful window, several people here even a Fatui, you villain, what are you doing here?
This Fatui named Viktor, he was just boring and waiting orders here, no more useful information but scared little girl. Night arrived, people in cathedral left except this conscientious Fatui and sisters of Cathedral.
Venti tried to borrow Holy Lyre from the Sister just got a rejection for don’t want to save stormterror just hope to kill the dragon, what’s Venti’s feeling when he heard those malicious wors to his friend?
Venti tryied to used Barbatos’s power to convince her, but it seemed to fail. At least he was certain the Holy Lyre is here. It’s my turn to persuaded this sister, as Honorary Knight! I said it’s Knight of Favonius need this Holy Lyre, she was clever enough to see through my act.
Venti suggested to steal it, is that kidding? I am the Honorary Knight don’t want to stand opposite Knight Favonius! If I was caught when stealing Holy Lyre…
Are you really Barbatos? That’s worth the risk I will take. Anyway, kill a dragon is dangerous, if there is a way to save him, once the Four Wings and the friend of Venti, I should choose this approach.
Wait until night, to be a justice stealer, to purify a dragon and save Mondstadt!
