The look in his eyes hurts Read the notes and credits since i am new to this so i don’t know how to put it into the project. Same with all the other backstories I have made.
Slavery Under an Evil God Before the Archon War, Xiao (then known by his true name, Alatus) was young, naive, and enslaved by a cruel, unnamed god.The god discovered Alatus's weakness and used absolute control to force him into committing violent, bloody acts.He was forced to act as a bloodhound, crushing hopes, taking lives, and devouring the agonizing dreams of his victims.This endless torment stripped away his gentleness and innocence, leaving him burdened with profound guilt and sin. Liberation and the Name "Xiao" During the Archon War, Morax (the Geo Archon, also known as Rex Lapis) defeated and killed the cruel god who enslaved Alatus.Morax freed Alatus and bestowed upon him the name "Xiao".Morax gave him this new name for his own protection, ensuring past enemies or other evil deities could not use his true name to control him.Deeply grateful for his salvation, Xiao swore eternal loyalty to Morax and entered into a contract to defend Liyue. The Duty of the Yakshas and Karmic Debt Morax rallied five elite Yakshas—including Xiao, Bonanus, Bosacius, Indarias, and Menogias—to purge the lingering, resentful hatred and demonic miasma of dead gods.Continuously slaying these pure manifestations of wrath forced the Yakshas to absorb massive amounts of negative energy.This accumulation of bad energy resulted in a severe karmic debt that slowly poisons the mind and body.Over millennia, the other Yakshas went mad with pain, turned on each other, or died from this corruption, leaving Xiao as the sole survivor.
