[ Let's do a SPD/DEX roll for this ]
Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse
. . . Perhaps... if I heft you up?
Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse
"Oh-- oh no, it's all right. We can maybe read one of these other books?"
Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse
No, please-- allow me, I am sure I can reach it still.
[ SIX!!! TAKE THAT SCROLL. TAKE THAT. Did you see that futai dude? DID YOU SEE. ]
Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse
Thank you, Mister!
You're a big help!
Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse
What is that you are reading? Studying up on something in particular?
[ While he speaks he is going to reach for the book 'Yakshas: The Guardian Adepti' ]
Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse
"The Yakshas' faithfully protected Rex Lapis and pacified all manner of catastrophes in the world. This continued for many years. But there came a day when the yakshas, despite their might, found that their deeds had taken their toll, and that the remnants of divine bitterness had begun to poison them. Some descended into a blind rage of a kind that can not be put into words, or were driven by fear to equally indescribable madness. Some turned on and destroyed each other. Some were lost to delusions of the mind. After a thousand years' scourges, three of the five were slain, and one disappeared. Many other yaksha of unknown name also either died or fled. In the end, only one of the five, [REDACTED], survived."
Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse
[ Hm... as for this book, he turns to his fatui servant and... Felicity herself. ]
Could either of you tell me anything you know about this, too?
Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse
"The story of the Guardian Yaksha are well know throughout Liyue. They are five of Rex Lapis's strongest servants. And have aided the Geo Archon for millennia in keeping the peace of Liyue."

[ So another name. This time, he will reach for the scroll to look over. ]
Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse
A long time ago, there was a dragon to be found in Liyue.
Not a dragon that soared the skies, but one whose abode was the mountains.
Indeed, this ancient dragon of stone was as large as the very mountains it called home.
When it awakened, even the tiniest movement, or the slightest stretch…
That would cause the earth to tremble and shake.
Then, Rex Lapis came before the dragon, seeking to stop the earth's quailing.
They say that for a long while, the land knew peace,
And that Rex Lapis gained another comrade by his side.
But in the end, the union of dragons, gods and men was perhaps not to be...
The dragon was sealed in the bowels of the earth.
The legends hold that those who triumphed over the dragon stabbed this sword into the ground next to the giant tree that subdued the ancient dragon.
As one of the seals, monsters and malevolent mortals would be unable to touch it.
Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse
Are we able to check these items out? Or purchase them?
[ Ivan... do you have.... money. You see, Tsukasa lost all of his. ]
Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse
It will magically pay for itself.
How strange. ]
Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse
I think I will take these with me. Knowledge is power, you know. You never know when it might come in handy. ♪
Perhaps we should stop back at the restaurant in order to regain some strength and then head out? We ought to do what we can regarding the erosion.
