2nd Person POV

As You entered the Tavern,  it was an eye opener for you. The place was packed with customers. They all were in they're own private conversation as they drank away, holding the wooden cups.

,, Angel's Share is quite famous for its dandelion wine, you know, " Kaeya mentions as you two went up to the bar.

There, You saw a red-haired man dressed formally. He was preparing drinks for the customers for tonight. You glanced to the Cavalry Captain who smirked at the bartender.

,, My, i never thought that Diluc Ragnvindr would be bartending for tonight, " Kaeya scoffed as her put his hand on his chin.

The bartender only rolled his eyes at him as he passed the he prepared drink to a woman wore wore a silver tiara and a cloth train coming doen from her tiara. He then sighed as he glared at the Cavalry Captain.

,, Are you here for a drink or just to make a fool of yourself, " Diluc asked firmly, as his crimson eyes pierced through Kaeya's periwinkle orbs.

Kaeya simply laughed at the bartender.

,, Of course, i'm here for s drink, Diluc! I'll have the usual dandelion wine while my friend here will have apple cider, " Kaeya said as he nudged you.

Diluc examined you for a few seconds before working on the drinks.  The bartender and Kaeya don't seem to get along quite well... You thought as you sat down on a free seat next to the woman.

,, You must be that person Barbara talked about a few days ago, " The woman spoke which made you flinch and turned over to her.

,, Er... Who? " You asked as you felt a chill running down your spine.

The woman's aura was eerie and intimidating. As she made eye-contact with you, her pale magenta eyes felt like ice piercing through your whole body. You shivered at the tense contact.

,, My, Rosaria! You seem to already know about (Y/n), " Kaeya commented as Rosaria laughed.

,, They are the talk of the town of course, Have they realise it yet after that incident? " Rosaria said as she adjusted her choppy, wine coloured hair.

The talk of the town? Am i a popular topic to converse about? You wondered as you received your drink from Diluc.

,, A word of advice for you (Y/n), someone like you should be cautious. Others may mistaken your blood for liquid Mora, " Rosaria advised as she  took a sip of her drink.

  The three of you started to converse with one another, about different views and information. You managed to know about the Grand Master, Varka and more about the Acting Grand Master, Jean which Kaeya promised to tell you about.  As you listened to Kaeya and Rosaria's conversation, The bartender examined you from afar.

Ever since word spread about you injured near the banks of Mondstadt, Diluc received intel that Your blood is extraordinary. Your blood was golden like Mora and shined like the rays of the sun. The Red-haired grew suspicion, whether you were part of the abyss order . Besides that,  His usual customer didn't seem to come by the tavern for 2 days straight, which made him more sceptical about you.

3rd Person PoV

Just then, a bard barged into the tavern. He stood proudly as he presented a bag of mora to Diluc.

,, One bottle of Master Diluc's Dandelion Wine please! " The bard exclaimed.

, did he not come by to the tavern in order to save? Or to scheme a plan to steal? ' Diluc raised a brow as he passed a bottle of the famous dandelion wine to the bard.

As the bard was about to leave, He glanced towards the Child, who happily drank their apple juice. The bard clenched onto the bottle of dandelion wine and left in a hurry. Diluc witness this strange act as he gazed over towards you.  What history do you have with that bard...  Diluc questioned as he furrowed his eyebrows, unease about that moment.

At Windrise, the bard sat on a chipped pillar. As he drank his bottle of dandelion wine, he recalled an unpleasant memory which happened years ago.

" Why didn't You tell me about the Catalyst, Venti ?! What did you and the seven do to  Khaenri'ah?!  "

The bard winced as he put down the now empty wine bottle. He looked up to the starry sky, the stars did not fail to dance with the moon. The bard only sighed.

" Why am i worried about him... I know that person back at the tavern wasn't him...  " Venti said, recalling (Y/n)'s appearance

"I hope you aren't causing any trouble for him, Lumine, "

A/n

'Him' has reference from one of the previous chapters. I'll just add this because i worried that people may mistaken 'Him' for Venti's old friend, the nameless bard

At first, Apple cider was apple juice until i doubt that any tavern will serve apple juice so i changed it to apple cider. According to Boogle, it's alcohol level is quite lowe compared to other alcoholic drinks.

wrote this chapter way back so thats what happens when you don't spend time researching on stuff ;-;
