[ jk he doesn't do that

He will just look at him. ]

Do you want me to go in first?

[dijun]

[ he's too polite to point out that this is at odds with sacrificing others on his profile. ]

Quite alright. If something was to happen, I'm prepared enough - let's see what we find, hm?

[ throws claude in ahead of him ]

[dijun]

[ revenge is sweet




no he just moves to walk in, pink and fluffy clouds swirling around him harmlessly. ]

[midway]

[ he should've done it

But oh! Okay, he just observes Zhongli. ]

Does it feel like you're walking on clouds?

[dijun]

[ this is my chance to sink my claws into cr with you absolutely not. ]

Rather solid, actually. [ he passes his hand through the clouds, waiting for anything to happen.

when nothing does... ]

I believe we're alright.

[midway]

Fascinating.

[ He'll step through the door because he's no coward!! Now that Zhongli has determined it as safe. ]

It reminds me of that first day when we woke up here. But not as obnoxious.

[dijun]

[ he just swirls the clouds in his hands thoughtfully. like trying to figure out the function of this place. ]

Mm. There will be an exit, when we turn around, and ideally we won't find ourselves going in a circle if we go walking through it in a straight line.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I came to check beneath the hill.

[midway]

I wasn't really expecting anything. Strange that this door opens but the one in the lighthouse doesn't...

[ Until tomorrow anyway. ]

By the way, you aren't human, are you?

[dijun]

I was wondering about that. It won't be long before someone breaks in, I imagine.

[ ... closes my eyes, but zhongli just chuckles. ]

While I relinquished my godhood for my people, I'm still not human, yes.

[midway]

Is godhood something you can relinquish?

[ Interesting! ]

What did that involve?

[dijun]

In Teyvat, yes, the Archons of each nation are able to relinquish their gnosis. Most of us were not born human, so have our own powers that we're able to keep even after relinquishing the power from the gnoses. It's a -

Oh. [ this is said with a mild !! because as he's thinking about it, holding his hand out thoughtfully, something that looks like a chess piece swirls into existence, floating above his open palm. ] Fascinating...

[ he tries to grasp it, but his fingers pass through. ]

[midway]

... Is that the "gnosis"?

[ Ooh, chess. ]

[dijun]

Correct. Each one is different depending on the Archon, but this one was mine.

I wonder if this is the function of this place... Memories. [ looking around at the pink clouds. ] Returning to the point - I relinquished my gnosis and thus the amplified powers I had as an Archon, to pass the mantle on to my people and as part of a contract with another Archon.

[midway]

I see.

[ Fascinating... ]

You said you relinquished it for your people... Wouldn't you be in a better position to provide for them if you retained that power?
