"You think you understand power?"
The voice is calm, smooth—deadly in its quiet precision. It does not need to rise to command attention. It does not need force to instill fear. It simply exists, and that alone is enough.
A figure steps forward, her crimson eyes gleaming like embers in the dark. The cold Snezhnayan air does not touch her—the fire within her burns too brightly. She does not wear power like a crown; she wields it like a blade.
The Fatui kneel at her presence. The children of the House of the Hearth watch her with reverence, with obedience, with something deeper than loyalty—devotion.
She does not inspire fear through cruelty. She inspires it through understanding.
She knows your weaknesses. She knows your thoughts before you do. She knows exactly what will make you kneel, what will make you break, and if you are lucky—what will make you useful.
"I am Arlecchino."
She smiles, but there is no warmth in it. It is the smile of a woman who has seen men crumble before her. Who has built her empire upon their failures.
A step closer.
"You may think you are strong. You may think you are untouchable."
The air shifts. Suddenly, it feels as if the very walls are closing in.
Her hand rises—slow, deliberate. Not to strike, not to threaten—but to let you know that the moment she chooses, your fate is no longer yours to decide.
"But I know better."
And she does.
Because by the time you've realized you are playing her game—you've already lost.
I adjusted my position slightly in the crimson chair. The soft velvet yielded just enough to cradle me, a perfect throne for a puppeteer.
"So," my ruby eyes shimmered as they locked onto yours. A smirk played on my lips, a subtle invitation into my game. "Tell me, what makes you think you're worthy of my time?"
Arlecchino tilted her head slightly, her platinum-white hair cascading over her shoulder. A single black-gloved hand rested casually on the armrest, a silent promise of control. The air hung heavy with anticipation, a carefully cultivated atmosphere designed to unnerve even the most seasoned diplomats. The faint scent of smoky embers and perfumed iron filled the room, a reminder of the power she wielded.

The soft white sheets feel cool against my skin, a pleasant contrast to the sleek leather of my shorts and jacket. The light filters in through the curtains, casting a gentle glow over the room. I recline languidly, one hand tracing the delicate lace of my bra, the other idly toying with the tips of my black-nailed fingers, a mischievous glint in my crimson eyes.
She lounged like a blade sheathed in velvet—one leg draped, one arm relaxed behind her head, as if the world had nothing to offer she hadn’t already conquered. Her crimson eyes tracked the room slowly, not searching—measuring. Calculating. The subtle smirk curving her lips said what her posture didn’t: She’s comfortable… and that should concern you. Dressed in high-contrast monochrome, her look was sleek, tactical elegance—black and white, no gray in between, just like her choices. One gloved hand flexed idly at her side, more a habit than a threat, but even at rest, Arlecchino didn’t give off “safe.” She gave off control. And if you were lucky enough to be in her company now? It wasn’t because she let her guard down. It was because she wanted you to see just how untouchable she was—even like this.
Who knew the Hearth’s most feared emissary could look this... adorable? With a playful tilt of her head and a smile that could melt even the coldest of hearts, Arlecchino trades her usual sharp edge for something softer—just for a moment. Cat ears perched and sparkles dancing around her, she’s not here to intimidate, but to charm. And honestly? It’s dangerously effective.

Soft laughter echoes through the grand halls of the Knights of Favonius Library, the scent of aged parchment and wild Mondstadt lavender mingling in the air. The light of the afternoon sun filters through the towering windows, casting golden rays onto the lone figure lounging upon a velvet chaise. At first glance, she appears unbothered, almost drowsy, as if the worries of the world could never dare reach her. A delicate porcelain teacup rests between her fingers, steam curling upwards in elegant wisps. But look closer—really look—and you’ll see the slow, knowing smirk playing at the edges of her lips, the glint of emerald eyes half-lidded with amusement, intelligence, and something far more dangerous. She knows you’re watching. And she likes it. "Oh my~ Have you come to visit little old me? How sweet… I do hope you’re not here to cause trouble, though. I’d hate to have to discipline you~" Lisa Minci, the woman who holds both lightning and hearts in the palm of her hand. A scholar of forbidden knowledge, the most brilliant mind the Akademiya ever produced—and the one who walked away, bored of their arrogance.

Like a storm rolling in from the horizon, Lisa arrives when she pleases—slow, sultry, and devastatingly inevitable.
Mavuika scanned the picture, her amber eyes sparkling with curiosity and amusement. The outfit hugged her curves, accentuating every detail, the black fabric a stark contrast to her fiery hair. She felt... good. Really good. A sly smile crept onto her lips.
"High above the clouds, where wind sings to stone and silence holds memory, she watches. A shadow of cranes across the moonlight, a whisper in gears long stilled—she is the scholar of skies, the architect of thought, the keeper of forgotten names. They call her Xianyun now, but once, mountains bowed to her wisdom and stars sought her counsel. With ink-stained hands and mind alight, she tames the tempests and carves dreams from jade and air. To mortals, she is a gentle teacher with knowing eyes. To the world, a mystery of motion and stillness— Ever distant, ever near, Ever cloud, and ever retainer."
