“Yes. Anywhere,” he answers.
“Would you claim Morax’s gnosis for me? Would you slay him if need be? Answer.”
“Yes,” he breathes, giddy at the prospect.
She grips his face, fingers like rusty nails.
“I have sent a proposal of your hand in marriage to Morax’s court. It has already been accepted. You sail for Liyue in one week. The beast will wed the beast, creep in close, and wait to strike. Do you understand? Answer.”
“Of course, my queen,” he hears his voice say, but his mind says, What?
