Amber, an Outrider of the Knights of Favonius, the flying champion of Mondstadt, Teyvat's recognized number one arsonist, and the first four-star character for every allogene player, possesses a Pyro Vision and, like Klee, an unrivaled passion.
As a social terrorist, her duty is to protect Mondstadt using her reconnaissance skills. The huge commotion in Wolvendom naturally didn't escape her notice. Relying on her Wind Glider, she leaped from the city walls of Mondstadt and rushed to Wolvendom, arriving just in time to intercept Yuto and his group.
Amber: "Hey—you all, wait a moment!"
Amber ran quickly, jumped, and after landing, skillfully rolled forward once, finally stopping steadily in front of everyone.
Amber: "May the Anemo God protect you, strangers! I am Amber, an Outrider of the Knights of Favonius. You aren't citizens of Mondstadt, are you? Then, please state your identities."
At this moment, Klee, the Knights of Favonius's darling, jumped out and directly hugged Amber's long leg, saying, "Amber, they're not bad guys; they're really good people who brought Klee to play."
Amber: "Klee? Why are you here too? Was the commotion in Wolvendom just now caused by you? You didn't burn down the mountain, did you? If Acting Grand Master Jean finds out about this, you'll probably be back in solitary confinement."
Klee quickly waved her little hands, explaining, "No, no, Klee was involved this time. There were many bad guys in Wolvendom, and they were very fierce, so Klee used bombs to drive them away."
Amber: "Bad guys?"
Razor: "They are stray black wolves, called... Rifthounds."
Amber: "Black wolves? Rifthounds? Are they wolves or dogs?"
Yuto: "They are no longer considered animals, but rather a type of monster."
Amber: "I remember now. Recently, the Knights of Favonius received several reports of wolf pack attacks.Convoys along the Drunkard's Gorge were attacked multiple times, but Mondstadt's local wolves have their own principles and generally don't leave Wolvendom and Brightcrown Mountains.
So the Knights of Favonius speculated whether foreign wolf packs had entered Mondstadt? According to what you're saying, that theory can be confirmed."
Yuto and his group relayed the situation of the Rifthounds to Amber, and her expression changed from calm to grave.
Amber: "So that's how it is. Such dangerous monsters have appeared in Mondstadt; the Knights of Favonius absolutely cannot stand by. Moreover, the Inazuma Delegation is about to arrive in Mondstadt. If there are casualties among the Inazuma Delegation, it will definitely become a serious diplomatic incident. No, I must inform Acting Grand Master Jean immediately.
Ah! Thank you all for the information, strangers and respectable travelers. It's getting late, so why don't I, as a Knight, escort you to Mondstadt? I can also take Klee back to the Knights of Favonius."
Klee: "Aww! But Klee hasn't played enough yet! Do I have to go back already?"
Amber: "Sorry, Klee, it's urgent, so you'll have to bear with it for now. Once things settle down, Amber can play with you too."
Klee's face instantly fell, her little mouth pouting high, but the sensible Klee still agreed.
Just then, the taciturn Razor spoke up, "Since the Knights of Favonius's friend will help, I will not go to the city."
Amber: "How can that be? Wolvendom is so dangerous now; what if something happens to you if you stay here?"
Razor: "I'm fine, you, don't worry. But I don't belong in the city. Some Lupical are injured; I must, go take care of them."
Yuto: "Razor, as I just said, the wounds caused by Rifthounds are unusual. It's difficult for the wolf pack's own methods to be effective. Why not go to the city and find your purple master? She is a genius rarely seen in two hundred years and might have a way to heal the Lupical."
Upon hearing this, Razor's eyes instantly lit up, immediately firming his resolve to go to the city. It seems this child, Razor, values his Lupical very much; for them, he can overlook things he dislikes.
Amber: "I remember now, are you the rumored wolf-boy of Wolvendom? But, who is your purple master?"
Yuto: "It's Lisa."
Amber: "Eh?! So Lisa is your master? This is the first I've heard of it."
Yuto: "What's so strange about that? Your Grand Master Varka gave Razor his name, and Grand Master Varka personally taught Razor his swordsmanship."
Amber: "Wow! That's too cool!"
It must be said that Grand Master Varka's prestige in Mondstadt is paramount. It can be said that every Knight of Favonius is a loyal fan of Grand Master Varka. To receive personal guidance from the Grand Master is something many Knights dream of.
On the way to Mondstadt, Amber kept asking Razor about Grand Master Varka, wanting to know more about him, seemingly forgetting the presence of Yuto, Shenhe, and the others.
However, Amber, the social terrorist, meeting a truly socially anxious person like Razor, their conversation was destined to be a disaster.
Nonetheless, Amber's max-level social skills didn't let the conversation become awkward. Eventually, it turned into Amber continuously talking about herself, with Razor as a listener.
After a short half an hour, Razor began to open up to this enthusiastic and lively Damselette, actively cooperating with Amber and talking about his childhood.
Yuto and Shenhe, following behind Amber, were both astonished by the eloquence of this young Knight, especially Shenhe, who looked at Amber's talkative demeanor with great envy.
Yuto also noticed Shenhe's envious gaze and unconsciously rubbed her shoulder, comforting her: "Don't overthink it; this level of eloquence and charisma is innate and cannot be forced. If you became like that, you wouldn't be the Shenhe I know.
Speaking of which, are all Pyro Vision holders this lively and enthusiastic?"
While Yuto was still lost in thought, a massive, medieval European-style city, like the moon emerging from behind clouds, appeared before everyone.
Although its impact was not as profound as Liyue Harbor, the classical charm of the castle still left Yuto, who was seeing it in person for the first time, in awe.
And on the bridge, the only path to Mondstadt, Yuto saw two very familiar figures. By their appearance, it seemed they had been waiting there for a long time.
