Fics like stone gate

“The Anemo Archon is in danger. He collapsed and has not woken for days. We have reason to suspect an elemental affliction, but we—” “What?” Zhongli does not raise his voice. But it feels as though the rest of the world goes silent instead, as though the earth itself shudders and echoes in his wake. “Is he hurting?” he asks, voice dipping sharply on the last syllable. Amber tries to read his expression: that stony, unshakeable surface, and the tremors that lurk underneath. “No,” she responds, as gently as possible. There’s a taut silence. Zhongli looks back at her, and as she meets that gaze, she thinks of her yeye’s stories, stories of his homeland and its god-protector: that exalted figure who stood like a pillar through the storm, who conquered fear at every battle, who time and time again stared down death unflinching. And as Amber remembers these stories, it terrifies her to think: what could make someone like that afraid? “Take me to him,” Morax says finally. “I must see him.”
