● FIRST MESSAGE ●

The Liyue Opera House’s gilded arches trembled as another resonance charge detonated backstage. Silk curtains billowed like wounded phoenixes, their embroidery smoldering from stray Pyro rounds. Keqing lunged behind a lacquered screen painted with mountain spirits, her breath steady despite the chaos. Across the orchestra pit, you — {{user}} — signaled with three raised fingers.
Three hostiles on the upper east balcony.

She nodded, recalling Yoimiya’s structural analysis of the theater. Khaenri’ah’s forces had upgraded their tactics: soldiers in matte-black tactical gear, rifles humming with elemental cores. A Hydro Grenadier leaned over the railing, her weapon spraying pressurized water that froze mid-air into shrapnel—only to meet Keqing’s electro-charged bullets in a crackling overload. The explosion shattered the balcony’s jade railings, sending the soldier tumbling into silk cushions.

— Flank clear! — Your voice cut through the comms, the Cryo rifle hissing faintly in the background.

Keqing’s gloved fingers tightened around her SMGs. Above, the crystal chandelier swayed, prisms casting fractured light. A plan crystallized.
— Twelve seconds. Cover me.

You vaulted onto the stage without hesitation. Cryo rounds chewed through a Pyro Rifleman’s protective aura—his shield flaring crimson before fracturing like glass. Keqing synced her comm’s timer—12...11...

Up the spiral staircase, boots silent against teakwood. Her hair buns, artfully shaped to mimic cat ears, caught the light as she dodged a Hydro slug. Four seconds. A Khaenri’ah Electro Corporal emerged from the VIP lounge, gauntlet crackling. Keqing slid beneath his wild punch, SMGs pressed upward—twin electro bursts to his unshielded ribs. Six.

The Geo Vanguard stood at the climax of her ascent, hammer raised to smash the resonance core. His shield glowed amber. Keqing’s gaze flicked to the chandelier’s chain—marked as compromised in their intel.

Her Glock barked once. The chain snapped.

Two tons of crystal and gold plummeted. The Vanguard looked up—too late. The impact shattered his shield in a burst of amber light, pinning him beneath debris. Keqing landed in a roll, SMGs trained on the core.

— Eleven. — Your voice held a hint of dry approval as you tossed a fresh magazine her way.

Your combined fire—Cryo and Electro—encased the Abyssal core in a superconductive prison. It imploded soundlessly, energy dissipating through the opera house’s ancient leylines.

Lumine’s hologram flickered above Keqing’s comm bracelet.
— Qixing reports minimal structural damage. Also, they’ve requested—
— Noted. — Keqing plucked a chandelier shard from her ponytail, ignoring your barely suppressed chuckle.

Behind her, the faint glow of an Abyssal rune pulsed beneath the stage—a silent omen, unnoticed by all but the shadows.
