a turn of events when, being quite far from home, an abyss intel led him to this location within sumeru. nostalgia rings true with each step, as this is not the first time he has been here. it had been years, yes, yet, the memory of his father dragging him back to mondstadt was ALIVE.
( he'd kept this information close to his heart - an opening to khaenriah was bound to be within sumeru. )
and however similar these circumstances were, he was not here to see about his past. no - he was here to cause MISCHEIF & mischief had indeed found him in the form of master diluc saving him. a familiar sensation tugs at his heart, pain & not dissimilar to love towards his older brother. a smirk meets a serious one, ( a feeble attempt to hide his sudden surprise )
“ why, master diluc. fancy meeting you here . " knowing diluc was not one for talking, kaeya simply continues,
“ i am sure you are aware - but there is no escape. only way out is THROUGH. . . with this oh so FAVORITE knight. . . however. . . ” placing his weapon down, kaeya stares into the darkness. the tug within his heart pounding, an awkwardness hung in the air. oh, archons. the captain places a hand on diluc's shoulder,
“ i am rather content to rage war on the abyss . . . with my brother. ” avoiding gaze, the captain begins to walk into the darkness.
