Mondstadt, Starfall Lake.

  A little girl in red, sporting a backpack, crouched by the water's edge. At her feet lay a Jumpy Dumpty. Klee's hand held a black marker, and as she was drawing a mouth on the Jumpy Dumpty, her hand slipped, turning it into a sad, crying face. Soon, Klee herself mirrored the sad expression.

  "Ah? Isn't it Celestia? Aunt Lisa is the bad one!"

  Klee was crestfallen after realizing her mistake. She had made her guess based on the conversation she heard between Lisa, Kaeya, and Zhongli. Besides, the winged figures did resemble the angels her mother had told her about. But alas, she was wrong.

  She had just been released from confinement and was excited to go fishing—er, fish-blasting. But then, this mysterious live broadcast appeared. Not only were there interesting performances, but she also saw her mom! Klee wasn't afraid of any "social death" challenges; she even found things like Hilichurl dances entertaining. She was just a bit disheartened by her incorrect answer. After all, who doesn't like rewards?

  "A Courage Challenge? A duel challenge to Captain Jean?"

  "Eeek! So scary!"

  Klee started to panic when she saw the details of the penalty. She had just been released from confinement! She didn't quite understand what the penalty was, but the words "challenge" and "Captain Jean" were enough to send a shiver down her spine.

  A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

  And what happened next confirmed her fears.

  "Such a terrifying penalty!!"

  [Courage Challenge Live Stream Begins!]

  As the penalty was announced, the camera zoomed in on Klee by Starfall Lake. Her and her Jumpy Dumpty quickly became the topic of heated discussions.

  "Wow, such a cute little girl!"

  "Her ears are pointed; is she an elf?"

  "Punishing such a harmless, cute girl? This live stream is evil!"

  "Secretary Song, find out whose daughter this is!"

  "What nation does she belong to?"

  "Can't you read? It says she's challenging Captain Jean. Obviously, she's from Mondstadt!"

  "Don't guess; she's our Mondstadt's Spark Knight!"

  "A knight this small?!"

  "Do the Knights of Favonius not consider combat ability?"

  "You don't understand!"

  "Cuteness is justice! So it makes sense for the Knights of Favonius!"
