"You came rushing over and ruined my fun. What exactly happened?"
Lin Yi asked as they traveled.
"Near The Chasm, two badly wounded men appeared, their flesh mangled beyond recognition. One fat, one thin."
"What happened? Could they be the two guys who went missing back in Mondstadt City?"

On the surface, The Chasm had been an important site in Liyue's early development, where underground mineral veins were mined for resources.
