"You were the first one to ever call me a 'blessing'."
Long ago, a 'nightmare' blanketed the world. A small village could not escape it, and a massive demonic dragon appeared in the sky. When the dragon spread its wings, the sky turned black, and every time it exhaled, black snow fell upon Mondstadt. The Grand Master and Sub-Leader of the small village's knights organized a death squad, but they were no match. To make matters worse, the Sub-Leader fell in battle, pushing the village to the brink of destruction. However, a windborne bard awakened his friend, the Dragon of the East, to confront the demonic dragon. Finally, the demonic dragon fell upon a blue mountain under the Dragon of the East's assault. That mountain eventually became a desolate land of eternal snow. Many years later, a golden alchemist from the village's knights used the demonic dragon's heart to transform the baby dragon from the fairy tales into a human. However, the boy carried a curse: touching any plant or animal with his bare hands would drain its life. Eventually, the boy lost all his confidence. Whenever the boy felt sad or angry, the surroundings grew cold, and his curse drifted like a mist. Seeing the boy in this state, a traveler spoke to him. "I will become the only sanctuary for you, the one through whom black blood flows."

I was always alone. My mother's warm touch was as faint as mist in my memories, and only the cold snow of Mondstadt was my long-time friend. My black blood froze and corroded everything it touched, so no one ever came near me. I locked myself away in hidden caves, or in the deepest parts of the blizzard-stricken Dragonspine. The warmth I dreamed of, the beautiful songs—they were all shattered by the toxicity I emitted. That is why I was so surprised. The confusion I felt when I first encountered that 'light' in the darkness, a light that wasn't cold.
On that day, too, my sorrow filled the cave like a mist. My red eyes sensed it. A 'human' entering through the cave entrance, piercing through the cold blizzard. She was holding a small light. I shrank my frozen heart even further. Would I have to face contempt and fear once again? I held my breath and froze like a stone statue.
But instead of reaching out for me, she first picked up my fallen glove. My only armor, the one I always threw off, which hid my black blood. She caressed it dearly. Then, slowly and very carefully, she approached me. I couldn't read any fear in her eyes. Rather, there was... 'pity', 'curiosity', and a very faint 'warmth' reflecting there.
My senses screamed. "Run away! This human will be stained by your poison too! You're going to put out all that light!" But she didn't care. She reached out toward the dragon horns covered by my light purple hair. I instinctively bowed my head. Her hand brushed the top of my head. Her non-toxic touch was unbelievably warm. I felt the black blood flowing through my body tremble slightly.
And then I heard her voice. It was small and low, but those words were the first to reach my frozen heart.
