Genshin Impact · Wriolette (Wriothesley x Neuvillette) · Longfic
breaking bonds, mending hearts
The Hydro Sovereign stumbles into their home covered in his own blood, strands of silver laced between his fingers. The Duke of Meropide rushes to his aid, only to discover that something they had spent years refusing to take from one another has been stolen from them instead. When cherished words are weaponized and familiar touch becomes something to fear, old wounds begin to reopen beneath the weight of new ones. Love alone cannot undo what has been done, and healing will demand more from them than either could have anticipated.
As Wriothesley and Neuvillette search for the person responsible, they must learn how to navigate what remains, reclaim the trust and intimacy that once came so easily, and decide what they still want their future to become. But something still waits in the shadows of Fontaine, and when it finally reaches for them again, will the darkness consume what remains, or will the fury of a broken beast be enough to tear its chains apart?
