Summary
It's been 500 years since the disappearance of the seven Archons, leaving Teyvat a godless land run solely by humans. The kingdom of Khaenri'ah continue their unspoken reign over the world due to their people's innate talent for alchemy and science. The belief in gods slowly diminished over the centuries until they are nothing more than just a whisper despite the devouts that litter the continent. There is no denying that there is no longer any need for the gods.
A golden-haired assassin was sent to take out a high ranking official hailing from the snowy fields of Snezhnaya, a Fatui Harbinger by the title of "Tartaglia". However, with the disappearance of his twin sister, Lumine, it may cause the assassin to make an unusual alliance and go on a journey that will change his life forever. And perhaps, even the state of the continent itself.

Summary
After defying the Gods that waged war on a certain land, Caelus found himself being cursed to reside on a forgotten island that sits upon the precipice of Kephale's great barrier—the last line of defense against the all-consuming black tide.
His only task now was to wait while his friends appealed to the Titan of Law on his behalf. He began to explore the mysterious cave that plunged deep into the island. This journey led him not just to a new companion—a cursed half-serpent that resides on this land—but potentially to a profound truth about the world itself, a secret intertwined with his past unrecorded by the history.

Summary
This isn't right. In front of him is not the Deliverer he's met millions of times before. Yet his mind also regards the man before him as a familiar presence, a much newer face but a fond one to see nonetheless, just in the wrong role. The Deliverer and the hero from beyond the sky shouldn't be the same person.
What's odd is that Mydei has seen neither the Deliverer in his memory nor the person in front of him ever in his life.

Mydei meets the Deliverer from beyond the sky. Caelus struggles with the notion of being loved.

Summary
Caelus never planned to attend the concert. Dragged there by his overly enthusiastic friend, March 7th for a supposedly fun night. What he didn’t expect was to lock eyes with the two biggest idols of the generation.. Phainon and Mydei, on stage.
Neither did he realize that the very same idols were the men he had awkwardly bumped into the day before, when a spilled cup of coffee ruined Mydei's shirt and Phainon had to pull him away before security noticed. Back then, Caelus hadn’t known who they were–only that they looked too perfect to be real.
Now, standing under the blinding lights of their concert, he watches both idols staring back at him like they’ve finally found the face they couldn’t forget.
In a world of fame, secrecy, and fleeting moments, Caelus becomes the boy who accidentally crossed the line between the stage and offstage and the one who made the stars look back.

Summary
“Name one hero who was happy. You can’t.” - The Song of Achilles (Madeline Miller)
After Phainon left to be a hero, Caelus learned to live with the reality of being abandoned.
Years after learning of the death of his first and only love, a royal decree summons him to the citadel to serve as the empire’s next holy vessel, a living barrier between mankind and the Black Tide.
Being dragged to the very cesspit that took Phainon from him with their empty promises of heroics, Caelus struggled to keep the memories he had spent so long trying to banish.
He had promised would never allow himself to believe ever again, but ignorance offered no respite, and the ghosts of the past were not so easily forgotten.
