[ dreams don't come so easily to someone like kaeya.
they are so rare, in fact, that whenever they do happen, they affect him in ways that are difficult for him to process. this isn't the first time he finds himself in this particular dream, in this particular pathway, where there is a light in the center of it all rather than the void of darkness that won him over in the end. it burns so brightly that it's almost unbearable, but whatever discomfort he is currently experiencing right now pales in comparison to who he sees standing before him. ]
... Lumine?
[ it wasn't that long ago when he found out that she had vanished into thin air. no amount of hours spent searching for her in the streets of venera had brought him any results, and while thoma claimed that she found her way home, he could scarcely believe it, thinking she was now lost to them too, just like mondstadt. (just like diluc.)
to see her now brings back a traitorous feeling that was once smothered into ashes, but now it's starting to flicker back into life again. ]
