    Summary

    “Since you have taken no interest in marriage, I have taken the responsibility of finding you the best possible match. I do believe that fate has smiled on us, for this is the best match you could possibly hope to receive.”

    “Open it.” The Tsaritsa commanded.

    He obeyed. He delicately opened the envelope, and then the gold-embellished letter.

     

    His Royal Highness Prince Ajax,

     

    After a series of negotiations with your mother the Tsaritsa, we have signed a contract, in which I have been promised your hand in marriage.

    I await your arrival in the Empire of Liyue, so we may begin the traditional courting period before we wed.

    I hope our marriage will continue to strengthen relations between our two kingdoms,

     

    Rex Lapis XXXVII
    Emperor of Liyue

    Summary

    Every century, Morax, the Dragon God and guardian of the Gates of Hell, descends to choose a bride. But this time, the sacred ritual has failed. The god himself will seek his own bride.

    Ajax is a devoted follower of the Tsaritsa—his loyalty blind and unquestioning. Even when the goddess commands him to kill the undefeated Morax, Ajax obeys without hesitation.

    Armed with a dagger forged from pure ice, Ajax embarks on his mission. What begins as a marriage born of hatred slowly transforms into something far more dangerous—love.

    But the Abyss never releases those it has touched. Not Ajax. Not Zhongli. Not the Tsaritsa, nor her grand dreams of a New World.

    And in the distance, the Narwhal still sings…

    Summary

    The first time He Xuan sees her, she’s standing at the edge of the forest. She’s wearing nothing but a thin, pale green dress that hangs off her shoulders and brushes against her knees. From her bedroom window, He Xuan can’t see much else besides her brown hair, dancing in the autumn breeze, and her bare feet standing on the fallen leaves.

     

    He Xuan blinks once, and she’s gone. She chalks the girl up to a hallucination, or a dream, or something of the sort—and forgets about her entirely.

    Summary

    Possessed by a fox demon that refuses to be exorcized, Childe is sent to Liyue to receive treatment. It’s there that he meets Zhongli, a dragon spirit, head of a cultivation clan and a top figure of Liyue. When their path crosses, the spirit blood in them (welcomed or not) brings out an animalistic feral side to them. Will they be able to find love while exploring their new found traits, alongside a murder mystery?

    --
    TLDR; Childe is possessed, finds out more about himself all while finding love and figuring out who exactly this mysterious serial killer is.

    Summary

    金枝玉叶 - golden branch, jade leaves (idiom); fig. blue-blooded nobility, esp. imperial kinsmen or peerless beauty

     

    In the 118th year of the Shui dynasty, the tyrant Shi Wudu sits on the throne, forcing his armies continually outward, his territories ever expanding.

    Imperial sibling Shi Qingxuan spends each day drunk with wine and monotonous pleasure, the darling of the royal court.

    It is there that Qingxuan meets the somber General Ming, with golden eyes holding heavy secrets, his piercing gaze enough to slice through a thousand enemies, and a heart.
