I suppose that makes sense. Is there anything you can tell me about it? Important landmarks or areas of interest to visit?

[ 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?

[ Ivan is going to speak! ]

"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."

Who or what is Rex Lapis?

Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse

[leaveofabsence]

"Rex Lapis is the Geo Archon, God of Wealth, God of Dust, and God of Commerce. 3,700 years ago, they emerged victorious in the Archon War and founded Liyue Harbor."

Hmm... I see.

[ So another name. This time, he will reach for the scroll to look over. ]

The Story of Azhdaha

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.

[ Hmm... it feels as though all of this information is important. ]

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

[leaveofabsence]

[ In Zhongli's world - ideal or not - money is never an issue. So you may in fact take whatever you want.

It will magically pay for itself.

How strange. ]

Re: Liyue Market: Wanwen Bookhouse

[heavyliesthecrown]

[ Splendid. ]

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.

[ Ivan just shrugs. Look, Master Childe told him to accompany this young master so he will go wherever. ]

[ Off he goes but then notices a familiar face at that awful Jade place...! ]
