Ah. Though I stepped down from being the Geo Archon, I have always been the God of Contracts, even before becoming Archon. There have been many gods of many things, especially in Liyue - the God of Salt, God of the Stove. [ ... ] The God of Dust.
The nation of Liyue relies upon contracts in everyday life, although many are not quite so official or formal as needing a witness and signature. Purchases, trades, commissions - all can be considered contracts, especially in a nation with thriving commerce. Promises, perhaps, are the most important of them.
It ensures that things remain in a state of order, where you cannot go back on your word without reprecussions. We are a people of our word, and our word is our oath, our bond, and our contract.

What does one do in such a role? Do you punish those who break their oaths?
