(Dawn Winery)

We met up with Jean, Diluc, and Venti.

Paimon: Woohoo! Dvalin Protection Squad! Assemble!

Venti: Let's put our crystals together.

We each gave Venti the Teardrop Crystals we recovered.

Venti: Oh... The color of these crystals looks... muddy. Dvalin... You're going through so much pain... ...Let's start purifying these crystals first. Please, travelers.

The Valkyries, Aether, and I purified the crystals.

Jean: It is hard to believe such a thing is possible, until you've seen it with your own eyes.

Diluc: Interesting. It's like filtering wine. The process is... refreshing.

Venti: I think we should have enough tears now. So next we... Use the crystals on the Holy Lyre like last time.

Aether: Let us give it a try...

We gave the Holy Lyre the crystals and it was finally complete.

Paimon: It worked!

Jean: It seems completely different than it did before.

Venti: The lyre's Anemo power seems fully restored. We should be Abe to use it now. It's all thanks to you.

Jean: Now, where should we summon Stormterror? It must be away from the city, else there will be causalities should we fail. Perhaps here at the winery...

Diluc: If the winery was destroyed, it's not something I couldn't eventually fix, but... I'd still not go through the hassle.

Jean: ...

Venti: The wind that blows at sea or in high places should be able to carry a bard's words far away. It's never going to work if the air is too dry or suffocating.

Paimon: Paimon understands. Sea or high places, right? Then the best location to play the lyre would be...

Aether: A cliff?

Diluc: If you go east from Starfell Lake, there are mountains south of the beach.

Paimon: ...Oh! You mean that beach we were on when you told Paimon about your sister. And where we first met Patrick and the Valkyries?

Diluc: If you head to where the cliff juts out — that place is known as Starsnatch Cliff. What do you think, bard? Meets the requirements, no?

Venti: Lemme think... Starsnatch Cliff... ...Alright, let's do it there.

Jean: Very well. Then let's meet at Starsnatch Cliff when we are ready. Please don't be late.

Paimon: Hee-hee! Yes, Ma'am!

Jean: Ah, sorry. I didn't mean to...

Patrick: Right. We'll be there. And incase anything goes wrong or if someone tries to stop us, I'll summon my dragon and he'll take care of the problem.

(Starsnatch Cliff)

It was now night time.

Me, Aether, Paimon, and the Valkyries arrived at Stasnatch Cliff. I had summoned Toriyama on standby. We had to be on guard for the Fatui or the Abyss Order.

(Flashback)

Patrick: I need you to be on standby incase Dvalin attacks us. I'll give you the signal for you to attack back.

Toriyama: You got it.

Aether: Why so cautious?

Patrick: Because the Abyss Order or the Fatui might try to interfere so I need to make sure that nothing goes wrong. Dvalin might try to kill us so I need my master to prevent him from killing us.

Toriyama went to go hide himself somewhere so that no one notices him.

(Flashback end)

Diluc: Everyone is finally here.

Paimon: What a view...

Venti: Lovely for a fated reunion, isn't it?

Patrick: Yes it is.

Venti: Well, we must be repaired for a fight.

Patrick: And I've already summoned my dragon and now he's hidden himself so nobody can notice him.

Jean: Regardless of the outcome, things finally seem to be taking a turn for the better. Mondstadt has really been going through so much recently...

Diluc: Huh! In the end, the solution to our problem was as simple as a traveler and a song. I suppose the Knights of Favonius may have played a part in it too...

Venti: Oh, we get it Master Diluc... Everyone, please step aside! I, the best wandering bard of the mortal world, shall begin my performance with the Holy Lyre.

Venti walked up to the edge of the cliff and began.

Venti played the Holy Lyre then after a few seconds, Dvalin appeared. He spoke through telepathy.

Dvalin: You have come... What has been done cannot be undone.

Venti: If so, then why o I see sadness in your eyes? Sadness that speaks fir your yearning of this song...

Dvalin: Grr...

Jean: They are... communicating... Huh?

A magical blast was aiming for Venti but with quick thinking I blocked it with my shield. But then another one shot from out of nowhere and landed a direct hit, damaging the lyre and destroying its Anemo power.

Paimon: No! Tone-Deaf Bard!

Then an Abyss Mage appeared from behind Dvalin.

Abyss Mage: Do not be fooled by him, dear dragon... He left you to rot alone...

I shot a fast fire blast and landed a direct hit on the Abyss Mage making him scream in pain and watched him fall.

Patrick: Nice try, I knew all along that you were gonna show up...

But then I was interrupted as multiple element blasts shot at me and the Valkyries, landing direct hits.

Abyss Mage: No one will get in our way!

Then more Abyss Mages showed up and the Abyss Mage I shot at got back up.

Abyss Mage: Now he attempts to deceive you once more...

Dvalin: Barbatos...

Then the Abyss Mage flew closer to Dvalin's head. I wanted to attack again but the the Abyss Mages casted a barrier around us to prevent us from doing anything.

Abyss Mage: Let your wrath fester! Mondstadt has already turned its back on you!

Dvalin: You! You were planning this all along? To have me slain by them?

Then Dvalin roared at us.

Venti: It's not like that!

After Dvalin roared at us, a powerful blue fire breath shot at him and the Abyss Mages and killed the Abyss Mages. All except the one that showed up. The barrier around us disappeared. Another roar was heard. Another dragon flew to our aid. Toriyama got my signal earlier and flew to our aid.

Toriyama: You will never hurt anyone. Not as long as I'm here. What you are doing is wrong.

Abyss Mage: NO! How can this be?!

Dvalin: Who are you?

Toriyama: My name is Toriyama. Guardian Dragon. I have heeded my apprentice's cry for help.

Patrick: I told you, nice try. But as long as I have my master with me, you don't stand a chance against us, Abyss Order.

The Abyss Mage flew onto Dvalin's back in anger.

Abyss Mage: GRR!... Get us out of here! The time has come for the dragon to serve its true master... While you bewail your pathetic selves. And watch the world tremble with fear!

The Abyss Mage with Dvalin flew away. Bronya and Theresa got to healing us right away. But Venti felt sad and down about Dvalin

Venti: Dvalin...

Toriyama sat down behind us then I got closer to him.

Patrick: We almost had him. But the Abyss Order refused to give up Dvalin so easily. But still, thanks for the help.

Toriyama: Likewise.

Jean: Barbat— Venti, please, be careful...

Venti: Hehe... You've known my true identity for some time now, haven't you Jean? Though, I thank you for continuing to use the name Venti.

Patrick: I think the name Venti suits you well than Barbatos.

Diluc: How's the Holy Lyre? Can it still be played? Or does it need to be repaired?

Venti: Ugh... Unfortunately, I think it's beyond repair...

Patrick in mind: Now I wish I had Josuke's powers to fix the Holy Lyre like how Josuke has his Shinning Diamond fix everything that's broken.

Aether: Dvalin is in a lot of danger...

Diluc: No, we should make that Abyss Mage pay first!

Kiana: Yeah! They fooled and tricked Dvalin! Patrick attacked the Abyss Mage but then more Abyss Mages showed up and attacked us out of nowhere to make sure that we didn't try to interfere! We better go after them!

Diluc: You're right. If we don't fight the evil at its source, then we can't save Dvalin at all.

Patrick: And with the Abyss Order mind controlling Dvalin. Looks like we're going to have to fight a dragon with a dragon.

Toriyama: I will do what I can to save Dvalin.

Jean: In which case I shall call upon Outrider Amber to track it down...

Diluc: No need.

Jean: Why is that?

Diluc: I eradicated one not long ago, in one of the Four Winds' temples.

Paimon: What!? When...?

Diluc: If you want to track those monsters down, then I'll seek answers from my contacts. I've got other means for getting the job done.

Paimon: Diluc... Though he dislikes the Knights of Favonius, he protects Mondstadt in his own way.

Venti: Ooh? Why does our little Paimon sound so doting all of a sudden?

Diluc: Hmph. Wait for my word. I'll be sure to let the Abyss Order know that their blatant disregard for Mondstadt... ...will not go unpunished.

Patrick: You guys go. Toriyama and I are going to track Dvalin down. Even if you've already tracked him down Diluc.

I jumped on Toriyama's back then he took off flying into the direction Dvalin went.

(Somewhere else)

Toriyama and I flew to where Stormterror's Lair was. There we saw Abyss Mages and other monsters. We hid somewhere. We observed the location for a while then we saw something that made us shocked is disbelief.

We gasped at what we saw. I saw this in the beta tests after seeing the trailer announced in the livestream of Gamescom 2020. We saw the person in command of the Abyss Order.

Toriyama: Is that?

Patrick: Yes it is. It's...

I turned to the audience.

Patrick: Oh hang on. Spoiler alert. Ok...

Then I turned back to what we are seeing after I said what Stewie Griffin said in one of the "Family Guy" "Star Wars" Specials, "Something, Something, Something, Dark Side".

Patrick: It's Aether's sister, Lumine.

There she was... Lumine... In command of the Abyss Order... She was staring at Stormterror's Lair while two Abyss Mages were behind her bowing to her.

Patrick: It was a real plot twist seeing The other twin in charge of the Abyss Order in the trailer but I couldn't care less if it was a spoiler. They really did great with the plot twist like how M. Night Shyamalan does with plot twists in his movies.

Then we all saw Dvalin fly to his lair then the Abyss Mage we encountered appeared in between the other two Abyss Mages and bowed to Lumine.

Abyss Mage: Your Highness... Your humble servant returns. When your homeland returns to this world. We shall revel in its glory.

Patrick: I've been coming up with a lot of theories with why the twin is working with the Abyss Order but right now I can't say which theory. But we'll figure it out later. We better get out of here before they notice.

Toriyama: Right.

Patrick: We better not tell Aether or else he will suffer from Heroic: Blue Screen of Death and have a mental breakdown.

I jumped onto Toriyama's back then we flew away as fast as we could.
