June Mingle: Time For A Hike
Welcome to Teyvat - a vast magical world of adventure.
Finally, it's time to leave Death Mountain for warmer climates. THe Travelers will begin their journey from Mondstadt to Liyue on the first of November, after packing up and saying goodbye the Mondstadt's Adventurers' Guild. But worry not - if you ever miss the City of Wind and Song, it's possible to teleport back for a brief visit.

The Travelers will head out of Mondstadt through Stone Gate, cross Dihua Marsh and then reach the Guili Plains. You'll be camping out under the stars on some days, while getting to enjoy various roadside inns on other days - including the famed Wangshu Inn, all under Forneus' bill. But it does bring up a question: where did he get all that mora from?

Speaking of Forneus, it seems that he's too busy to accompany you on this road trip. Instead, Zhongli will serve as his stand-in. For those who do not know him well, he introduces himself as an Adeptus... and also the Geo Archon, who has enlisted your help to test his nation. What will you do?

State of the World

June will be a lighter period in the game for characters to bond with each other while traveling as a group, and later while exploring and trolling Liyue to the best of their ability. Forneus will not be available for the first two weeks as he is busy; instead Zhongli is tasked with answering questions in his place. A reference of the scenery your character might see on the way can be found in this video here! Feel free to check out Liyue's music here as well.

For all questions regarding June's mingle and events, please head over to our OOC post.

[ That's okay, he'll mentally fill in the 'dad' for her. ]

Good evening.

[ Zhongli gives Ana a slight smile; his usual. ]

You can see most of Liyue from here.

[nefilim]

[Ana flashes him a bright smile back, glad to avert potential embarrassment before she steps closer to the railing.]

It's really super pretty... I'm excited to explore the city once we arrive.

[Pause, and then she gives Zhongli another grin.]

You'll show us around, right?

[pragmatism]

Yes, I will. Is there a particular place you were interested in?

[ If he were to give a comprehensive tour, it would probably take a month... good thing he's learned to summarize some things. ]

[nefilim]

Hmm...

[There was food places, of course, but that was the obvious choice. There is another thing...]

Is there any like, fabric stores or tailors? I'm interested in learning more about the clothing of Liyue.

[pragmatism]

Liyue's textile trade is commanded by the Feiyun Commerce Guild. They specialize in fabric manufacture and export. It should not be too difficult to arrange a visit.

[ Too many people are in awe of Zhongli's reputation as a scholar and his general aura to refuse him. As for the price - well, that's Forneus' problem, isn't it? ]

[nefilim]

[Forneus can fund her shopping, it's fine.]

Oh, really? Thank you, I'm excited to visit! [She'll need to take a notepad so she can write down any ideas...]

And, hmmm... Is there anywhere you would recommend?

[pragmatism]

[ Zhongli appears to think about it for a moment. ]

If you so wish to, I can show you the old Liyue. The parts of it that were made during the Archon Wars and before.

[ It's easy to experience the present, but much about the olden days only survive in grandmother stories. ]

[nefilim]

[Now that gets her to perk up more so, nodding energetically in response.]

Oh, yes! I would like to look around. I imagine there's a lot of stories.

[And she also imagines he could tell her more about them than anyone else.]

[pragmatism]

We will need to travel outside the Harbour. Let us depart.

[ Humanity has expanded Liyue from a small town into the bustling harbour it is today. However, that also meant some historic sites needed to be moved or demolished. The relics left on the northern entrance to the harbour are the most intact, so he'll lead Ana to the gate first. ]

The old Liyue was inhabited by the Adepti and humans alike. You can see some of the mechanisms that were built around those times in the perimeter of the city today.
