Summary
“The abyss is something unlike any nation or land has ever known. It is a magic filled with a wild will, a yearning for destruction. It is both a place and a being that hungers for something beyond that of human understanding. Five years ago, the abyss opened up rifts all over the world and swallowed hundreds of people. In all likelihood, this is what happened to him. I highly doubt someone like him would abandon everything and run away.” Ningguang let out another plume of smoke from the pipe sitting between her fingers.
“That’s what happened to him? That’s where he’s been all this time?!” Chongyun felt his anger growing, uncertain if his mastery over his congenital positivity would keep him from an outburst, “Him and how many others? They all could be dead, why would you keep this a secret!?”
“I am the Tianquan of Liyue, it is my priority to keep this city in order. If the citizens found out about this there would not only be mass panic, but it would cause an almost certain economic collapse. Sometimes it is better to live in blissful ignorance. If there were anything more I could do than what I’ve already done, I absolutely would. You aren’t the only one who lost someone important to you to the abyss.”
