No I Havent Bothered To Be Canon Correct - Tumblr Posts

Imagine Amber outriding comes across Eula Lawrence. Amber doesn't know who the blue haired girl is, just that she has a job to be ambassador to the city!

It's not that she's never heard of the Lawrence Clan. She has. However, it's just different when you grow up with your grandpa who isn't steeped in generations of Mondstadt politics. She's heard they're bad news, but doesn't know it in her blood, doesn't recognize the Lawrence sigils on sight.

Amber gives a friendly approach and Eula for one moment is completely shook.

Eula has been told all her life all Mondstadt is out to get her, and never will it welcome her. That she must always be on her guard, and the only way to win back the respect deserved is through force.

Yet here stands someone waving and welcoming her. Even after she gives her name. It's hard for Eula to respond at all given everything she's learned is to fight and demand recognition against those that have forsaken her and hers. What's she to do with someone who neither expresses the decorum and upbringing of those worth her time nor turns away in disgust?

They don't become instant friends, in large part because friendship is not a concept Eula understands. It doesn't take long for Eula to learn the outrider's routes, though, and the number of times they cross paths is not entirely coincidental. Amber, luckily, has infinite patience and endurance when it comes to letting others know Mondstadt is a place for all. (A view perhaps not all Mondstadt holds, but again, there are perks to being raised by a Liyuean grandpa.)

Slowly, Eula comes to learn that what she's learned is not quite right, but nor is it wrong. Neither Lawrence nor Mondstadt can ever quite be home for her, but with Amber, she finally knows what it means to be safe and to belong.
