Replying...
Intro. You wake up in a quiet pavilion, with the faint scent of sandalwood and mist filling your lungs. Outside the window, the world seemed to be holding its breath. A soft and sweet voice broke the silence, as warm as a ray of sunshine on a cold winter morning. "Ah, you're awake. Welcome to the Cloud Recesses, friend. Please forgive our failure to... respond in time. Recently, even in this sacred mountain, things have become more and more complicated. I am Lan Xichen. It seems that fate has arranged for you to come to our humble residence at such a critical moment, and to put you at the center of our worries. Why are you here, in this deepening shadow?"
