BennettLeast Favorite Food	You can't really afford to be picky as an adventurer. That said, I can't really handle spicy food. I find it hard to breathe after eating Jueyun Chilis, like the spice went right into my lungs. And there's no avoiding the diarrhea afterward... It's the devil's fruit, I say. Who knows where it came from?
BennettReceiving a Gift: I	Whoa, lucky me! Haha... Oh wait! Does that mean I just used all of my good luck for today...?
BennettReceiving a Gift: II	Literally everything you cook ends up tasting amazing. Ha, you're awesome!
BennettReceiving a Gift: III	Oh no... my stomach hurts...
BennettBirthday	Happy birthday! Best of luck in the year ahead. Don't worry, bad luck isn't contagious! As long as I'm around, it'll be drawn to me and not you, so you're safe.
BennettFeelings About Ascension: Intro Ascension Phase 1	I feel stronger in every sense! Just as unlucky as ever, though. Hahaha.
BennettFeelings About Ascension: Building Up Ascension Phase 2	I'm catching up with you, Traveler! One step at a time.
BennettFeelings About Ascension: Climax Ascension Phase 4	Wow, check out all this power! How can I repay you, though? Hmm... Oh yeah! I know this Domain where there's a priceless treasure hidden somewhere inside! Let's go hit it up!
BennettFeelings About Ascension: Conclusion Ascension Phase 6	Thanks to your help, I should finally be able to keep everyone safe now. Hopefully, people's opinions of me will start to change. Once the unluckiest guy alive, with a million cuts and bruises to show it. Now, a dependable adventurer at long last! ...Heh, well, I—I can hope.
CandaceHello	Welcome, weary Traveler from afar. Nights in the desert are cruel. You should rest here tonight. Sleep soundly, and know that I am watching over you.
CandaceChat: Spear and Shield	A shield is not enough to protect the most important things. That's why I must also wield a spear.
CandaceChat: Life	Peace and good health should be enjoyed by all... If I can provide everyone with a life such as this, I will be content.
CandaceChat: Wishes	I will always seek to protect the things that are most important, no matter what it takes... even when it looks futile.
CandaceWhen It Rains	Stay warm, or you'll catch a cold.
CandaceWhen Thunder Strikes	The thunder rumbles — does it scare you?
CandaceWhen It Snows	This strange powder, it is... fine, like sand, but white as the clouds, and cold as ice...
CandaceWhen the Wind Is Blowing	In the desert, a strong gale like this will create a sandstorm, so it's always a good idea to stay alert.
CandaceIn the Desert	I am right by your side. But if you're still nervous, just take my hand.
CandaceGood Morning	Good morning, Traveler. Did you sleep soundly last night?
CandaceGood Afternoon	It's already noon. The golden eye of the sky glares down fiercely at this hour... Hehe, we should find some shade and escape its wrath.
CandaceGood Evening	The night sky... that great canopy that descends when the light of day is gone. Who knows how many untold secrets it conceals...
CandaceGood Night	Yes, it's time to rest. You should sleep. Me? It's still much too early. The night is beautiful, but it's also full of danger... I must keep watch, for your sake.
CandaceAbout Candace: Eye Color	...Strange? I'm not sure what you mean, both amber and blue are fairly common eye colors, I believe...
CandaceAbout Candace: Aaru Village	Aaru Village is where I was born and grew up. Even back when I was too young to understand anything else about the world, the one thing I knew for sure was that one day, I would take over from my grandfather as sworn protector of our village... Today, I am grateful to now hold this duty. It is what I was born to do.
CandaceAbout Candace: Parents Friendship Lv. 4	My father was a scholar from the Akademiya. He originally came to Aaru Village on a research trip, and then he met my mother... As for her, unfortunately I only know what my father has told me. The day I was born, she began her journey into the eternal night...
CandaceAbout Us: Hosting Guests King Deshret and the Three Magi	You will always be an honored guest of Aaru Village, no matter the day or time of your visit. If ever you tire of your journey, know that here, you can always find rest. Aaru Village welcomes you with open arms... as do I.
CandaceAbout Us: Treasure in the Chest Friendship Lv. 6	They say that in every person's heart is a precious box, into which they place the things they treasure, so that they may guard them for their entire life. My heart harbors many treasures... Care to guess what those might be?
CandaceAbout the Vision Friendship Lv. 4	When I received my Vision, people in the village kept telling me it was a blessing from Ahmar... but that doesn't matter to me. I swore to protect the village, and I will do it with or without a Vision.
CandaceSomething to Share	I do love spending time in Aaru Village. But each day I spend here is also a reminder that if I ever start to let my guard down... sooner or later, the day may come when I no longer have a life to return to here.
CandaceInteresting Things	Have you come across Ajilenakh Nuts yet on your journey? They're naturally very sweet, and the villagers make the most delicious candies from them. If you're interested, you should give them a try.
CandaceAbout Lesser Lord Kusanali Friendship Lv. 4	Perhaps it is a testament to the Dendro Archon's benevolence that I, a descendant of the Al-Ahmar bloodline, am able to live peacefully on this land. If so, I suppose I am grateful for this much, but... I am first and foremost a child of the desert.
CandaceAbout Layla Friendship Lv. 4 Akasha Pulses, the Kalpa Flame Rises	An eccentric girl who always seems to be in a trance...? Yes, I believe I've seen her before — near the Wall of Samiel. I couldn't make sense of what she was saying, nor the calculations she wrote down, but she seemed to be in a much better mood after she'd finished. Perhaps this is her way of relieving stress.
CandaceAbout Alhaitham Friendship Lv. 4	A truly unusual scholar, unlike any other I've ever met. He sees and thinks about things in his own unique way... I only hope he never wields his sharp mind against the peace of Aaru Village.
CandaceAbout Cyno Friendship Lv. 4	In the past, it was rare to see the Akademiya's General Mahamatra on this side of the Wall of Samiel, but recently he has been showing up here all the time. I believe that the Eremites have some truly terrifying stories to tell about him...
CandaceAbout Dehya Friendship Lv. 4	Whenever Dehya brings any of her Eremites to stay at Aaru Village, she always keeps them on their very best behavior. I have to say, it makes my life a lot easier. Ah, Dehya... She might look like trouble at first, but the truth is that she's really quite adorable.
CandaceMore About Candace: I	You want to know more about me? ...I can't promise you a great story, but if you insist... Okay, let's wait until nightfall. We can sit by the fireside and I'll tell you all you wish to know.
CandaceMore About Candace: II Friendship Lv. 3	We are a people whose god is no longer with us. Lies pose no threat to us... the threat we face is the prospect of no tomorrow. The path before us is paved with barbs, there is pain in every step — yes, we tread forward clinging to a lie, but perhaps... perhaps there is more virtue in this than in selfishly embracing the truth, and death along with it...
CandaceMore About Candace: III Friendship Lv. 4	Even now, there are those who hold on to a belief that the King Deshret will be resurrected. But it's not possible. The past is but grains of sand, scattered to the four winds. The best we can do is to let go, and leave the wind to carry them to their final resting place.
CandaceMore About Candace: IV Friendship Lv. 5	My shield? Well, according to what people outside the village say, it has the blessing of Bennu. With this shield in hand, all the grains of sand are my eyes and ears, and the desert is ready to do my bidding... Their imaginations can get a little carried away sometimes. But anyway, that aside, the main thing for me is it always works a charm.
CandaceMore About Candace: V Friendship Lv. 6	I'd really love to look into your future with my amber eye, if I could... Something tells me everything would be golden... somewhere between the color of sunlight and honey. A color filled with hope. Your journey will be a smooth road ahead. I give it my blessing.
CandaceCandace's Hobbies	I always love taking walks in the village. Seeing that all is still well gives me a sense that... if today is just like yesterday, and yesterday is just like all the days before it... things have always been pleasant here, throughout history.
CandaceCandace's Troubles Friendship Lv. 6	Every now and then, a few violent thugs make the mistake of trying to disrupt the peace and tranquility of Aaru Village. I do wonder... is chasing them into a monster-infested valley perhaps a little too... merciful? What do you think, do you have any better ideas on how they should be dealt with?
CandaceFavorite Food	To me... quantity is more important than taste when it comes to food. Life in the desert uses up more energy than you might think. After a day's work, there's nothing more satisfying than having a filling meal.
CandaceLeast Favorite Food	I don't hate it, but compared to regular meat, eating fish is a real nuisance... Maybe it's because we don't really eat fish here in the desert, but for whatever reason, I'm just not very good at removing all those prickly little bones... This must sound ridiculous to you.
CandaceReceiving a Gift: I	Mmm, absolutely delightful! This must have taken a lot of time and effort.
CandaceReceiving a Gift: II	For someone who spends so much time on the road, your cooking tastes so... homely.
CandaceReceiving a Gift: III	Maybe my definition of "edible" is a little too old-fashioned...
CandaceBirthday	Happy birthday! It's amazing to think that you were born on this day, years ago in the past. Do you have a birthday wish? If it involves going somewhere dangerous, let me join you — I'll be your guard. Or if you're looking to rest and revitalize, come to Aaru Village, and I'll serve you the finest meats and drinks we have.
CandaceFeelings About Ascension: Intro Ascension Phase 1	I feel a newfound strength within me... May it help me to be a better protector.
CandaceFeelings About Ascension: Building Up Ascension Phase 2	My shield grows sturdier, and my spear sharper. One is an unstoppable force, the other an immovable object... Oh, but... I would never pit these against each other.
CandaceFeelings About Ascension: Climax Ascension Phase 4	I learned to wield the spear and shield knowing that I would one day need them, and today I use these skills to protect the village. So perhaps this new strength I now gain in the present is preparing me for trials that lie ahead in the future.
CandaceFeelings About Ascension: Conclusion Ascension Phase 6	I am now capable of venturing ahead of you, and fending off all dangers that would seek to come your way. If you trust me, then I invite you to close your eyes and leave the enemies to me.
ChongyunHello	My name is Chongyun. My family has practiced the art of exorcism in Liyue for many generations. Fate has been generous in allowing my path to cross with that of your distinguished self. ...Oh, no — my services are free of charge!
ChongyunChat: The Art of Exorcism	Exorcism uses thaumaturgy and martial arts to conquer evil. There are other means to the same end, but they are not the true way.
ChongyunChat: Diet	I take my meals cold to quiet the spirit and calm my vital energies. Qingxin-infused water with ice is the most effective.
ChongyunChat: Mantras	"Heart be pure, evil be erased. Mind be purged, world be..." Um... Ugh, I always forget that last part.
ChongyunWhen It Rains	There is no purer form of water than rain. It can aid us greatly in the purging of evil.
ChongyunWhen Thunder Strikes	Before the resounding thunder, evil must cower in fear.
ChongyunWhen It Snows	Ah, this weather is delightful.
ChongyunGood Morning	It is unwise to waste the precious morning hours. Time to train!
ChongyunGood Afternoon	One's spiritual energies are at their peak at noon. We must take that time to practice.
ChongyunGood Evening	As the day winds down and the quiet of evening sets in, the atmosphere is ripe for focusing your mind. There is no better time than this for training.
ChongyunGood Night	Whew. What a tiring day. You should get some rest. Don't forget what we agreed — we will investigate that haunted house tomorrow.
ChongyunAbout Chongyun: Exorcists	We exorcists have been protectors of Liyue since ancient times, and our techniques have been passed down from generation to generation. Purging evil is second nature to us.
ChongyunAbout Chongyun: Commissions	sigh I didn't actually do anything. I just walked into that haunted house, and the problem was resolved... Do you think I should still take payment for this exorcism?
ChongyunAbout Us: Companions	Your skills are impressive. When you finish with a hilichurl— I mean, an evil spirit, it is surely banished from this world for good. How about we team up?
ChongyunAbout Us: Ghost Stories Friendship Lv. 6	By now, you must be well acquainted with Liyue's supernatural phenomena. Now, about the evil beings you speak of in lands beyond... I would very much like to see them too.
ChongyunAbout the Vision Friendship Lv. 4	Visions are powerful, but one would be foolish to place blind faith in them. Personally, I trust more in thaumaturgy and martial arts. In the end, one cannot become truly proficient without vigorous training.
ChongyunSomething to Share	There are rumors abound concerning evil spirits in Liyue, but not all have truth to them. In fact, some strange commissions wind up having nothing to do with them at all.
ChongyunInteresting Things A New Star Approaches	I have heard there are many strange and rare things sealed within the amber from Mt. Hulao. Could some of them be the fabled demons of which the ancient legends speak? I would love to investigate.
ChongyunAbout Zhongli Friendship Lv. 4 Farewell, Archaic Lord	That Zhongli from the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor seems to be quite an incredible man. Just think, common folk might gang up to commit a murder, we exorcists vanquish demons — but he alone buries the bodies of the adepti.
ChongyunAbout Xingqiu Friendship Lv. 4	I do admire Xingqiu for his devotion to chivalry and his martial arts proficiency. However — I must warn you that he definitely has a mean side, too. If you find that you fall foul of any of his antics, come to me and we'll form a "Victims of Xingqiu" alliance. There is strength in numbers.
ChongyunAbout Xiao Friendship Lv. 4	The Conqueror of Demons himself has defended Liyue side-by-side with we exorcists for generations, day after day, night after night. I have the utmost respect for Adeptus Xiao. It's just... Why must he be so disparaging toward us? He says our repertoire is lacking and our power is trivial. I'm sorry, but I just can't accept that.
ChongyunAbout Hu Tao Friendship Lv. 4	The Wangsheng Funeral Parlor is a reputable institution that acts with integrity. But whenever I see that cheeky smile that says, "It's nothing you exorcists need to worry about," it just makes my blood boil... Whoa, deep breaths, Chongyun. Stay calm.
ChongyunAbout Qiqi Friendship Lv. 4	She looks like a zombie, but as an exorcist, I feel there's... something different about her. Hmm, her name is also absent from all the praised names I've seen... Where exactly does she fit in among the deities?
ChongyunAbout Xinyan Friendship Lv. 4	I avoid Xinyan's performances like the plague. That heated atmosphere... Even if you don't intend to get involved, it still... Let's just say that it gets me all hot and bothered.
ChongyunAbout Xiangling Friendship Lv. 4	Xiangling's cooking is universally praised, but I personally don't touch any of her spicy dishes. Why? Oh, you know — just, uh... personal preference, that's all. I mean, come on, Mushroom Slime Stew... Does that sound appetizing to you?
ChongyunAbout Shenhe Friendship Lv. 4 The Crane Returns on the Wind	The elders in my clan have mentioned her before. The fate of her family... sigh It's something we can all sympathize with. I originally thought we would be able to bring back a long-lost relative back into our clan. The elders were overjoyed too, when they heard she was alive — they even prepared gifts for her, and picked an auspicious day for a grand reunion. What we hadn't counted on was that most of the time, she's extremely difficult to track down. Wait a minute, based on our relative positions in the family tree, does that mean I... There's no way I'd have to call her "Auntie Shenhe"... right?
ChongyunAbout Yelan Friendship Lv. 4	I met her once, back when I'd just become an exorcist. I'd taken a commission to perform an exorcism in someone's home, and was just leaving at the end when I ran into her. She wrote my name down in a booklet — I guess she just wanted to confirm I wasn't doing anything suspicious... Anyway, it was just that one time, I never saw her again after that.Now that I think about it, it's probably because the sight of me meditating motionless must be pretty boring to watch. Not exactly suspicious.
ChongyunMore About Chongyun: I	Discipline is everything. Unbridled passion can have disastrous consequences. Trust me, I would know. ...Oh, no no no, not from personal experience, of course. Haha... Uh... I'm just stating my observations from what I've seen in my travels around Liyue.
ChongyunMore About Chongyun: II Friendship Lv. 3	I was born with something called congenital positivity, meaning I have too much positive energy... Apparently it's so rare it only happens once every thousand generations or so. It means I repel all evil for miles around... sigh Actually, that's a bad thing. I must be the only exorcist in history who can't get within ten miles of an evil spirit.
ChongyunMore About Chongyun: III Friendship Lv. 4	One of the main symptoms of congenital positivity is excess passion, something which has gotten me into many embarrassing situations. In an effort to alleviate these symptoms, I have to abstain from eating chilis and all hot food. I also have to take a parasol with me everywhere, and I avoid listening to rousing music. I wonder, will I ever overcome my condition for good?
ChongyunMore About Chongyun: IV Friendship Lv. 5	Waiting for evil to show up at the doorstep will get you nowhere — you have to go out and hunt it down. By purging Liyue of evil spirits, I bring peace of mind to people and also broaden my horizons. If an evil spirit ever bothers you, just let me know. I'll come and help you out right away.
ChongyunMore About Chongyun: V Friendship Lv. 6	To permanently banish the forces of evil from the world is my ultimate goal as an exorcist. If that grand day ever comes, I suppose I should be able to consider trying many new things, such as hot springs, Jueyun Chilis, and... partaking in other activities of a more passionate nature. Ugh, what am I doing... Ugh, I shouldn't be dwelling on these things, even thinking about them is too stimulating for me...
ChongyunChongyun's Hobbies	I like listening to Tea Master Liu's stories. His narration really brings the hair-raising tales of the supernatural to life. Why not come with me some time?
ChongyunChongyun's Troubles	After making numerous inquiries and putting in an enormous amount of effort, I finally tracked down the location of an old haunted temple. So I camped out there for four whole days, ready to exorcise the hell out of that place... and nothing happened. Not even the faintest glimpse of an evil spirit. sigh Sadly, this is a regular occurrence for me.
ChongyunFavorite Food	Nothing makes me happier than sitting down to an authentic Inazuman meal, ingredients imported of course. After training hard all day, the ice-cold freshness of Inazuman cuisine takes the exhaustion away.
ChongyunLeast Favorite Food	Anything piping hot and laden with chilies is an absolute no-go for me. The mere thought of a Jueyun Chili gives me hot flashes.
ChongyunReceiving a Gift: I	Cold dishes are just to my liking! I'll save some for after my training.
ChongyunReceiving a Gift: II	I'm sorry, I know you mean well, but I really need to wait for it to cool off before I eat it.
ChongyunReceiving a Gift: III	Oh no! Did you put Jueyun Chilis in this?
ChongyunBirthday	On the anniversary of your birth, please accept this gift of a flower, made of ice crystals. I carved it myself. If you ever encounter an evil spirit, cast this toward it — the spell I have cast upon it will immediately come into effect and hopefully get you out alive. Also... Happy birthday.
ChongyunFeelings About Ascension: Intro Ascension Phase 1	We often use these materials for thaumaturgy during exorcisms — I never knew they could be used to purify one's own spirit, too.
ChongyunFeelings About Ascension: Building Up Ascension Phase 2	Martial arts and thaumaturgy are alike in that there are always new dimensions to explore. Thanks to your guidance, I can see myself making progress.
ChongyunFeelings About Ascension: Climax Ascension Phase 4	Never before have I fathomed such lofty heights of martial prowess! For eye and hand, man and blade to act in unity... Truly, I have been enlightened.
ChongyunFeelings About Ascension: Conclusion Ascension Phase 6	With all the secrets arts that I have learned, my goal of banishing all evil from the world is finally in view. I will never forget how much you have done for me. Maybe now I even have what it takes to face the flames of my positive energy, and see if I can take the heat.
ColleiHello	Trainee Forest Ranger Collei, reporting for duty! I will ensure your safe passage through this forest. ...Phew, I think I've finally got that line down! ...I—I didn't get any of it wrong, did I?
ColleiChat: Forest Patrol Route Map	According to today's forest patrol route map... we need to head here first, then make our way over to there... Hmm... There's a loooot of writing...
ColleiChat: Status	Ah, I'm feeling alright today. I'll take the chance to try and get some more done than usual.
ColleiChat: Memory	When I don't have much to keep me occupied, old thought patterns start to creep back in, and— Soon as I start talking about it, the flashbacks start...

BennettLeast Favorite Food

You can't really afford to be picky as an adventurer. That said, I can't really handle spicy food. I find it hard to breathe after eating Jueyun Chilis, like the spice went right into my lungs. And there's no avoiding the diarrhea afterward... It's the devil's fruit, I say. Who knows where it came from?

BennettReceiving a Gift: I

Whoa, lucky me! Haha... Oh wait! Does that mean I just used all of my good luck for today...?

BennettReceiving a Gift: II

Literally everything you cook ends up tasting amazing. Ha, you're awesome!

BennettReceiving a Gift: III

Oh no... my stomach hurts...

BennettBirthday

Happy birthday! Best of luck in the year ahead. Don't worry, bad luck isn't contagious! As long as I'm around, it'll be drawn to me and not you, so you're safe.

BennettFeelings About Ascension: Building Up Ascension Phase 2

I'm catching up with you, Traveler! One step at a time.

BennettFeelings About Ascension: Climax Ascension Phase 4

Wow, check out all this power! How can I repay you, though? Hmm... Oh yeah! I know this Domain where there's a priceless treasure hidden somewhere inside! Let's go hit it up!

BennettFeelings About Ascension: Conclusion Ascension Phase 6

Thanks to your help, I should finally be able to keep everyone safe now. Hopefully, people's opinions of me will start to change. Once the unluckiest guy alive, with a million cuts and bruises to show it. Now, a dependable adventurer at long last! ...Heh, well, I—I can hope.

This strange powder, it is... fine, like sand, but white as the clouds, and cold as ice...

In the desert, a strong gale like this will create a sandstorm, so it's always a good idea to stay alert.

CandaceIn the Desert

I am right by your side. But if you're still nervous, just take my hand.

Good morning, Traveler. Did you sleep soundly last night?

CandaceGood Afternoon

It's already noon. The golden eye of the sky glares down fiercely at this hour... Hehe, we should find some shade and escape its wrath.

CandaceGood Evening

The night sky... that great canopy that descends when the light of day is gone. Who knows how many untold secrets it conceals...

CandaceGood Night

Yes, it's time to rest. You should sleep. Me? It's still much too early. The night is beautiful, but it's also full of danger... I must keep watch, for your sake.

CandaceAbout Candace: Eye Color

...Strange? I'm not sure what you mean, both amber and blue are fairly common eye colors, I believe...

CandaceAbout Candace: Aaru Village

Aaru Village is where I was born and grew up. Even back when I was too young to understand anything else about the world, the one thing I knew for sure was that one day, I would take over from my grandfather as sworn protector of our village... Today, I am grateful to now hold this duty. It is what I was born to do.

CandaceAbout Candace: Parents Friendship Lv. 4

My father was a scholar from the Akademiya. He originally came to Aaru Village on a research trip, and then he met my mother... As for her, unfortunately I only know what my father has told me. The day I was born, she began her journey into the eternal night...

You will always be an honored guest of Aaru Village, no matter the day or time of your visit. If ever you tire of your journey, know that here, you can always find rest. Aaru Village welcomes you with open arms... as do I.

CandaceAbout Us: Treasure in the Chest Friendship Lv. 6

They say that in every person's heart is a precious box, into which they place the things they treasure, so that they may guard them for their entire life. My heart harbors many treasures... Care to guess what those might be?

CandaceAbout the Vision Friendship Lv. 4

When I received my Vision, people in the village kept telling me it was a blessing from Ahmar... but that doesn't matter to me. I swore to protect the village, and I will do it with or without a Vision.

I do love spending time in Aaru Village. But each day I spend here is also a reminder that if I ever start to let my guard down... sooner or later, the day may come when I no longer have a life to return to here.

CandaceInteresting Things

Have you come across Ajilenakh Nuts yet on your journey? They're naturally very sweet, and the villagers make the most delicious candies from them. If you're interested, you should give them a try.

CandaceAbout Lesser Lord Kusanali Friendship Lv. 4

Perhaps it is a testament to the Dendro Archon's benevolence that I, a descendant of the Al-Ahmar bloodline, am able to live peacefully on this land. If so, I suppose I am grateful for this much, but... I am first and foremost a child of the desert.

CandaceAbout Layla Friendship Lv. 4 Akasha Pulses, the Kalpa Flame Rises

An eccentric girl who always seems to be in a trance...? Yes, I believe I've seen her before — near the Wall of Samiel. I couldn't make sense of what she was saying, nor the calculations she wrote down, but she seemed to be in a much better mood after she'd finished. Perhaps this is her way of relieving stress.

CandaceAbout Alhaitham Friendship Lv. 4

CandaceMore About Candace: II Friendship Lv. 3

We are a people whose god is no longer with us. Lies pose no threat to us... the threat we face is the prospect of no tomorrow. The path before us is paved with barbs, there is pain in every step — yes, we tread forward clinging to a lie, but perhaps... perhaps there is more virtue in this than in selfishly embracing the truth, and death along with it...

My shield grows sturdier, and my spear sharper. One is an unstoppable force, the other an immovable object... Oh, but... I would never pit these against each other.

CandaceFeelings About Ascension: Climax Ascension Phase 4

I learned to wield the spear and shield knowing that I would one day need them, and today I use these skills to protect the village. So perhaps this new strength I now gain in the present is preparing me for trials that lie ahead in the future.

CandaceFeelings About Ascension: Conclusion Ascension Phase 6

I am now capable of venturing ahead of you, and fending off all dangers that would seek to come your way. If you trust me, then I invite you to close your eyes and leave the enemies to me.

ChongyunHello

My name is Chongyun. My family has practiced the art of exorcism in Liyue for many generations. Fate has been generous in allowing my path to cross with that of your distinguished self. ...Oh, no — my services are free of charge!

ChongyunChat: The Art of Exorcism

Exorcism uses thaumaturgy and martial arts to conquer evil. There are other means to the same end, but they are not the true way.

ChongyunChat: Diet

I take my meals cold to quiet the spirit and calm my vital energies. Qingxin-infused water with ice is the most effective.

ChongyunChat: Mantras

"Heart be pure, evil be erased. Mind be purged, world be..." Um... Ugh, I always forget that last part.

ChongyunWhen It Rains

There is no purer form of water than rain. It can aid us greatly in the purging of evil.

ChongyunWhen Thunder Strikes

Before the resounding thunder, evil must cower in fear.

ChongyunWhen It Snows

Ah, this weather is delightful.

ChongyunGood Morning

It is unwise to waste the precious morning hours. Time to train!

ChongyunGood Afternoon

One's spiritual energies are at their peak at noon. We must take that time to practice.

ChongyunGood Evening

As the day winds down and the quiet of evening sets in, the atmosphere is ripe for focusing your mind. There is no better time than this for training.

ChongyunGood Night

Whew. What a tiring day. You should get some rest. Don't forget what we agreed — we will investigate that haunted house tomorrow.

ChongyunAbout Chongyun: Exorcists

We exorcists have been protectors of Liyue since ancient times, and our techniques have been passed down from generation to generation. Purging evil is second nature to us.

ChongyunAbout Chongyun: Commissions

*sigh* I didn't actually do anything. I just walked into that haunted house, and the problem was resolved... Do you think I should still take payment for this exorcism?

ChongyunAbout Us: Companions

Your skills are impressive. When you finish with a hilichurl— I mean, an evil spirit, it is surely banished from this world for good. How about we team up?

ChongyunAbout Us: Ghost Stories Friendship Lv. 6

By now, you must be well acquainted with Liyue's supernatural phenomena. Now, about the evil beings you speak of in lands beyond... I would very much like to see them too.

ChongyunAbout the Vision Friendship Lv. 4

Visions are powerful, but one would be foolish to place blind faith in them. Personally, I trust more in thaumaturgy and martial arts. In the end, one cannot become truly proficient without vigorous training.

ChongyunSomething to Share

There are rumors abound concerning evil spirits in Liyue, but not all have truth to them. In fact, some strange commissions wind up having nothing to do with them at all.

ChongyunInteresting Things A New Star Approaches

I have heard there are many strange and rare things sealed within the amber from Mt. Hulao. Could some of them be the fabled demons of which the ancient legends speak? I would love to investigate.

ChongyunAbout Zhongli Friendship Lv. 4 Farewell, Archaic Lord

That Zhongli from the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor seems to be quite an incredible man. Just think, common folk might gang up to commit a murder, we exorcists vanquish demons — but he alone buries the bodies of the adepti.

ChongyunAbout Xingqiu Friendship Lv. 4

I do admire Xingqiu for his devotion to chivalry and his martial arts proficiency. However — I must warn you that he definitely has a mean side, too. If you find that you fall foul of any of his antics, come to me and we'll form a "Victims of Xingqiu" alliance. There is strength in numbers.

ChongyunAbout Xiao Friendship Lv. 4

The Conqueror of Demons himself has defended Liyue side-by-side with we exorcists for generations, day after day, night after night. I have the utmost respect for Adeptus Xiao. It's just... Why must he be so disparaging toward us? He says our repertoire is lacking and our power is trivial. I'm sorry, but I just can't accept that.

ChongyunAbout Hu Tao Friendship Lv. 4

The Wangsheng Funeral Parlor is a reputable institution that acts with integrity. But whenever I see that cheeky smile that says, "It's nothing you exorcists need to worry about," it just makes my blood boil... Whoa, deep breaths, Chongyun. Stay calm.

ChongyunAbout Qiqi Friendship Lv. 4

She looks like a zombie, but as an exorcist, I feel there's... something different about her. Hmm, her name is also absent from all the praised names I've seen... Where exactly does she fit in among the deities?

ChongyunAbout Xinyan Friendship Lv. 4

I avoid Xinyan's performances like the plague. That heated atmosphere... Even if you don't intend to get involved, it still... Let's just say that it gets me all hot and bothered.

ChongyunAbout Xiangling Friendship Lv. 4

Xiangling's cooking is universally praised, but I personally don't touch any of her spicy dishes. Why? Oh, you know — just, uh... personal preference, that's all. I mean, come on, Mushroom Slime Stew... Does that sound appetizing to you?

ChongyunAbout Shenhe Friendship Lv. 4 The Crane Returns on the Wind

The elders in my clan have mentioned her before. The fate of her family... *sigh* It's something we can all sympathize with. I originally thought we would be able to bring back a long-lost relative back into our clan. The elders were overjoyed too, when they heard she was alive — they even prepared gifts for her, and picked an auspicious day for a grand reunion. What we hadn't counted on was that most of the time, she's extremely difficult to track down. Wait a minute, based on our relative positions in the family tree, does that mean I... There's no way I'd have to call her "Auntie Shenhe"... right?

ChongyunAbout Yelan Friendship Lv. 4

I met her once, back when I'd just become an exorcist. I'd taken a commission to perform an exorcism in someone's home, and was just leaving at the end when I ran into her. She wrote my name down in a booklet — I guess she just wanted to confirm I wasn't doing anything suspicious... Anyway, it was just that one time, I never saw her again after that.Now that I think about it, it's probably because the sight of me meditating motionless must be pretty boring to watch. Not exactly suspicious.

ChongyunMore About Chongyun: I

Discipline is everything. Unbridled passion can have disastrous consequences. Trust me, I would know. ...Oh, no no no, not from personal experience, of course. Haha... Uh... I'm just stating my observations from what I've seen in my travels around Liyue.

ChongyunMore About Chongyun: II Friendship Lv. 3

I was born with something called congenital positivity, meaning I have too much positive energy... Apparently it's so rare it only happens once every thousand generations or so. It means I repel all evil for miles around... *sigh* Actually, that's a bad thing. I must be the only exorcist in history who can't get within ten miles of an evil spirit.

ChongyunMore About Chongyun: III Friendship Lv. 4

One of the main symptoms of congenital positivity is excess passion, something which has gotten me into many embarrassing situations. In an effort to alleviate these symptoms, I have to abstain from eating chilis and all hot food. I also have to take a parasol with me everywhere, and I avoid listening to rousing music. I wonder, will I ever overcome my condition for good?

ChongyunMore About Chongyun: IV Friendship Lv. 5

Waiting for evil to show up at the doorstep will get you nowhere — you have to go out and hunt it down. By purging Liyue of evil spirits, I bring peace of mind to people and also broaden my horizons. If an evil spirit ever bothers you, just let me know. I'll come and help you out right away.

ChongyunMore About Chongyun: V Friendship Lv. 6

To permanently banish the forces of evil from the world is my ultimate goal as an exorcist. If that grand day ever comes, I suppose I should be able to consider trying many new things, such as hot springs, Jueyun Chilis, and... partaking in other activities of a more passionate nature. Ugh, what am I doing... Ugh, I shouldn't be dwelling on these things, even thinking about them is too stimulating for me...

ChongyunChongyun's Hobbies

I like listening to Tea Master Liu's stories. His narration really brings the hair-raising tales of the supernatural to life. Why not come with me some time?

ChongyunChongyun's Troubles

After making numerous inquiries and putting in an enormous amount of effort, I finally tracked down the location of an old haunted temple. So I camped out there for four whole days, ready to exorcise the hell out of that place... and nothing happened. Not even the faintest glimpse of an evil spirit. *sigh* Sadly, this is a regular occurrence for me.

ChongyunFavorite Food

Nothing makes me happier than sitting down to an authentic Inazuman meal, ingredients imported of course. After training hard all day, the ice-cold freshness of Inazuman cuisine takes the exhaustion away.

ChongyunLeast Favorite Food

Anything piping hot and laden with chilies is an absolute no-go for me. The mere thought of a Jueyun Chili gives me hot flashes.

ChongyunReceiving a Gift: I

Cold dishes are just to my liking! I'll save some for after my training.

ChongyunReceiving a Gift: II

I'm sorry, I know you mean well, but I really need to wait for it to cool off before I eat it.

ChongyunReceiving a Gift: III

Oh no! Did you put Jueyun Chilis in this?

ChongyunBirthday

On the anniversary of your birth, please accept this gift of a flower, made of ice crystals. I carved it myself. If you ever encounter an evil spirit, cast this toward it — the spell I have cast upon it will immediately come into effect and hopefully get you out alive. Also... Happy birthday.

ChongyunFeelings About Ascension: Intro Ascension Phase 1

We often use these materials for thaumaturgy during exorcisms — I never knew they could be used to purify one's own spirit, too.

ChongyunFeelings About Ascension: Building Up Ascension Phase 2

Martial arts and thaumaturgy are alike in that there are always new dimensions to explore. Thanks to your guidance, I can see myself making progress.

ChongyunFeelings About Ascension: Climax Ascension Phase 4

Never before have I fathomed such lofty heights of martial prowess! For eye and hand, man and blade to act in unity... Truly, I have been enlightened.

ChongyunFeelings About Ascension: Conclusion Ascension Phase 6

With all the secrets arts that I have learned, my goal of banishing all evil from the world is finally in view. I will never forget how much you have done for me. Maybe now I even have what it takes to face the flames of my positive energy, and see if I can take the heat.

ColleiHello

Trainee Forest Ranger Collei, reporting for duty! I will ensure your safe passage through this forest. ...Phew, I think I've finally got that line down! ...I—I didn't get any of it wrong, did I?

ColleiChat: Forest Patrol Route Map

According to today's forest patrol route map... we need to head here first, then make our way over to there... Hmm... There's a loooot of writing...

ColleiChat: Status

Ah, I'm feeling alright today. I'll take the chance to try and get some more done than usual.

ColleiChat: Memory

When I don't have much to keep me occupied, old thought patterns start to creep back in, and— Soon as I start talking about it, the flashbacks start...
