August Mingle
Welcome to Teyvat - a vast magical world of adventure.
Happy new year....! In Teyvat, that is. It is now January ingame, and Liyue's people go about their disaster recovery efforts with more vigour than before. After all, Liyue's biggest festival is slated to occur in the latter half of the month - the Lantern Rite!
The Rite of Parting - Rex Lapis' funeral - passes without much incident, and Liyue collectively breathes a sigh of relief. With the Fatui being chased out of the yard, it seems that peace will finally return to the harbour city as they rebuild from the storm. You'll also get to watch three million Mora's worth of incense go up in smoke, so there's that.
Eager to focus on the future, Liyue folk have begun discussing the upcoming festival. The Lantern Rite commemorates hope for a new beginning and continued prosperity, and the construction of the festival centerpiece is currently underway. This year's Mingxiao Lantern will soar into the sky amidst thousands of smaller lanterns, and it will take the shape of a fallen Adeptus to commemorate the Adepti's contribution to Liyue's lasting peace.
Unfortunately, you're not quite out of the frying pan yet. With the Fatui gone from Liyue, the Ministry of Civil Affairs turn their attention to solving another issue that has cropped up after Osial's revival and subsequent defeat. Quite a few miners have gone missing from the Chasm, and the likelihood of finding them will only grow slimmer as the days go by. Both the Millelith and the Adventurers' Guild have pitched in to search for the kidnapped people. All clues lead to Nantianmen - and it's just your luck that Geovishaps and their hatchlings have come out of hibernation at around the same time. These lizard-like beings have shells of solid rock, and they seem especially agitated at having their territory invaded. Solving the mystery of the missing miners will take more than just a day's work.
State of the World
With the Lantern Rite set to open on January 21st, all of Liyue have come to visit the harbour to set up their stalls and pitch in to craft the Mingxiao Lantern. Hopefully the miners are found before the festival begins - the Lantern Rite is a festival of reunions, after all. Not to mention the Geovishaps' increased activity will inadvertently lead to them burrowing around in the rocky mountains. There's a small, but non-zero chance of them hitting an ancient seal somewhere and unleashing a buried threat.
Unless... that was their intention all along?
Please direct all questions to August's OOC post!
Jun Kohinata | Tokyo Xanadu | Geo
[Make a xiao lantern they said. It'll be easy, they said.
Or at least Jun THOUGHT it would be easy. After months of studying under an Archon on how to make constructs with his geo vision and years of training towards mastery of the element of Light- he thought surely a lantern that even children know how to make would be easy.
But it seems those skills matter little in a craft that requires delicate touch. At his crafting station, there's a small but growing pile of broken snapping materials-- a pile that's just about to get bigger as he snaps another support stick]
Nn- again? How many times...
[Sounds like he's getting frustrated.]
II. Missing Miners
[Now that he was no longer required to cause chaos, he did want to help out he people of Liyue. People disappearing? Sounds right up his alley. So he signs himself up for the search.
He's quiet most of the trip, focusing on looking for clues and only talking when he notices something. He's just not a chatty fellow, it seems. So it's a little notable when he pauses as they enter Nantianmen and speaks up. ]
...Careful, there's an unusual amount of geo elemental activity here.
[In other words, monsters are probably going to pop up real soon]

TREVOR BELMONT | CASTLEVANIA | PYRO ota
[Trevor's grown accustomed to using visions and magic. Unfortunately, he's not good at blending in with his surroundings and he just happens to be very good at causing trouble wherever he goes. The locals appear to be minding their own business, living their lives every day. ]
It's too fucking quiet. I hate it, thanks.
[If you don't look like a local he'll pull you aside for a second. Do keep in mind that Trevor smells awful and most people would probably want to take a step back and not forward. ]
Something around here smells and it's not me. We shouldn't let our guard down just yet.
2.
[Today Trevor's decided that he at least wants to try and do something productive. He's just sticking posters up for the missing people and doing what he can within reason. Maybe he's feeling a little restless from doing errands like this. He's not even doing his job right. Trevor plasters a missing person poster on your back. ]
Would you look at that? My hand slipped.
[It sounds like he's not very serious with the way he speaks in a casual tone.]
COMMISSIONS CLOSED TO YU
[Now's the time to move and be productive again. Trevor's wasted more than enough days just sitting around and trying to figure out what his next action is. He's agreed to do heavy-duty clean-up in order to help with repairs and other damages. ]
I didn't think I would come all the way here just to carry rocks, but alright. You could go over there and arrange the tiles?
Making things look symmetrical is too much work for me. I'll carry a few fucking rocks.

Rean Schwarzer | Trails of Cold Steel | Cryo
[So yeah, all of that last month was A Lot.
So much so that Rean wasn't even technically here for it!Rean is pretty much always Tired with a capital T at the best of times, but immediately after all of that, he was definitely looking pretty worn down.So it's probably nice, for anyone who either noticed that or is familiar with him in general, to see him in much higher spirits now that festival preparation is underway.
He's... not the best at lantern-making, but like with most crafts, he's getting better with a bit of practice. And his failures certainly don't seem to be setting him back any, as he's smiling and even humming a song he's heard Elliot playing as he works.
If anyone comes over, he perks his head up and offers a bright smile.]
Hey there! Looking to make lanterns?
II. boo missing people
[But, of course, it can't all be fun and games. And Rean is forever Rean, so the minute he hears about trouble like this, he's immediately signing himself up to help find the missing miners.
Of course, it's not easy to find missing people when your search keeps getting interrupted by a bunch of rocky, rolly boys. And it just so happens that Rean, and whoever happens to be searching with him, have been ambushed by a couple.]
Watch out!
[His partner here may well have been paying attention and seen that the thing was about to attack, but, well. Chronic Hero Syndrome over here is going for it and cutting it down. Better he gets hurt than anyone else.
The Geovishap isn't down for the count, but it is flailing around sadly on its back as Rean growls in irritation.]
Where are all of these things coming from...?

louis amamiya | code vein | geo
[ Louis hadn't expected being in a human settlement to be so... distracting. Humans effectively vanished from his homeworld following Operation Queenslayer and the conversion of many humans to revenants, with those remaining living in secret shelters to protect them from becoming prey. That meant that the ordinary revenant would have no opportunity to meet a human... or to ever get accustomed to controlling their hunting sense when suddenly dropped in a city full of still-living humans.
It's hard when his hunting sense forces him to become aware of any human blood in a hundred-metre radius. He had planned to explore Liyue and reacclimatize to a non-apocalyptic world, but it's taking more willpower than anticipated to resist the instinct to feed. Maybe he should go to a less populated area and clear his head.
He can be found in the shade of various buildings trying to catch his breath, or on the path leading towards Mount Tianheng where few people linger. His clothes definitely set him out from the locals, not to mention the rather small Geo Vision that he's wearing as a necklace. ]
2. Searching
[ Combat still remains as Louis' favourite activity to dull his negative emotions, so he's signed up for the investigation of Nantianmen without hesitation. Being out in the wild means that there are less humans around to potentially distract him, and he would be able to practice using his Vision - there's no downside to it.
He's a quiet commission partner, only bringing up immediate concerns, if any. There isn't much time to talk once they reach the Geovishaps' territory, though - two hatchlings scrounging for food immediately approach, as if seeking a meal. ]
They're coming. Prepare yourself.
[ His Vision shines, and rock coalesces around his left arm to form a rather large claw. It seems he's the odd Geo user who doesn't focus on defense. ]

[ Hit me with anything and I'll roll with it!! ]

August Villareal | OC | Electro
[So. You may hear some screaming from outside Liyue. Some very panicked screaming, along with some very distressed raven noises.
And if you come looking for the source of the screams you will find what is honestly a pretty hilarious scene: August has been treed by a tiny baby geovishap and Julian is screeching at it as he flies around the tree, brandishing a knife in his claws.]
Go the fuck away, you deformed piece of crap! Gods, I am going to kill Forneus next time I see him, how the fuck am I supposed to fight this thing?!
[Someone missed the memo on How to Use the Elements, clearly.]
Harbor
[Eventually, after getting down from the tree, August and Julian make their way back to the harbor a little worse for wear. You'll probably run into them at a fabric stall, the poor merchant eying this armed raven and his human.]
He didn't mention how money works here, either, but...well, I could probably do something part-time, yeah?
Caw!
And not at the fish stalls, because I can't afford to feed you that much fish.
Caw...
Wildcard
[Honestly, if you don't want either of those just assume you saw a raven with a knife or August doing something with a deck of tarot cards! Plurk is here if folks wanna plot!]
