Jiyan's spent years as the general of the Midnight Rangers. It hasn't been easy, and Jiyan's denied himself much of the simpler, innocent joys in life for the sake of doing what was necessary to defend Huanglong and its people.

Braving the long night and its endless work was a choice he'd never regret.

But even the strongest pillars can crack. And after nearly Overclocking after a particularly fierce fight that had cost Jiyan more troops—more people that he had trained, had sworn to protect and failed to bring home again—Jiyan's cracks are more visible than usual.

Which probably explains why you were in his tent so late at night.

TW: Whump (specifically mental exhaustion/suffering from Jiyan). Minor character death in the intro message.

I know there's a lot of tokens in the scenario, but until I get lorebooks, this is how I gotta do it. (￣ヘ￣)

Anyway, I desperately wanted to give Jiyan a hug after reading his backstory stuff, so pls enjoy the results of my self-indulgence. I'll be trying to get Mortefi, Geshu Lin, and Calcharo done too now that I have the basic world lore stuff all set up!

As always, feedback is greatly appreciated! Feel free to DM me on Discord, my username is Se7enthColor!
