Yeah. I can't leave yet, or Madam will know something's up. And I don't have any leads on where he's gone, anyway, so... the Tower's still been the safest place for me, as long as I'm careful.

That makes sense. It would be reckless if you set off unprepared, especially if you're going to unknown territory.

Yeah, and I... really don’t know anything about life outside the Tower. Just that it's dangerous for demiflora.

[ shrugs... ]
Spawncampers and other demiflora, mostly. They take body parts from demiflora to sell. Apparently they make a lot of money from it.

[ hm. ]
No. Even if I did, I wouldn't know how to use it. They don't teach us stuff like that.

[ he looks unsure, but. ]
Zhongli's been saying I should learn some kind of self-defense...
[ weeps in timelines. ]
I guess it wouldn't hurt to try.

Mm. Even if you don't end up needing to use it here, it could be helpful back home.

Yeah. I'll be leaving the Tower eventually, so... it'll be good to know.
[ scary to think about, though. ]
You'd really teach me? Swordfighting?

Mmhm, of course. We have practice swords in our room, so it'll be simple.

Then I may as well give it a shot.
...We used to play with toy swords, when I was a kid. It might be kind of cool to learn the real thing.
