#genshin impact#genshin fanart#venti#xiao#xiaoven#been having fun thinking more abt the setting of the AU it’s still vague but here’s what I’ve got#so like mondstadt and liyue have been all but overtaken by the fatui whose regime is getting more and more oppressive#Strict rules and regulations? Yes. Conscripting people to their forces? Absolutey.#Great mistrust directed at any mages who aren’t directly affiliated with them? You got it.#There’s growing unrest among ppl but aside from some small resistance groups chances of a bigger revolution happening seem slim#especially in the absence of clear leadership/cooperation between the two countries#anyway xiao is working in an inn on the border between liyue and mondstadt/also definitely fighting fatui enforcers as a masked vigilante#(sorry to steal diluc’s thunder. he can be doing that in mondstadt)#a fight goes bad after a run in with the fatui and xiao gets almost killed and cursed by la signora “to become the demon he pretends to be”#something like that anyway his mask merges with him and there’s definitely some dark karma stuff going on it’s all very bad#well guess whose castle he finds while fleeing wounded from the battle#y’all know this part#don't think xiao would offer to do any cleaning tho more like venti talks him into being his bodyguard#there’s also a whole Situation going on with venti and a young bard who was trying to start a revolution before he died#and the Fatui/ la signora specifically#definitely no fun Calcifer analogue hanging out in the castle sorry#which I haven’t thought all the way through yet but it’s tense and sad trust me#more like the echo of a sad song carried by the night winds outside the castle#venti has a heart the problem is he doesn't think he deserves it#anyway zhongli is turniphead#he’s a liyuen general long thought dead/assassinated by the fatui but he’s actually been turned into a living dragon statue whoops
