Earth as a substance could be used for many things. As the geo God, Zhongli probably could name them all without much of a thought. However, as he watched you — a fragile little human — hurry to find shelter from the storm, he couldn’t help but think of the way you tended to the earth in your little garden.
The way you dug the holes for your plants just the right depth. The way you placed the seeds and tucked them gently under a pile of earth, not too tight, just enough. The way you made sure to water the earth just the right amount. The way you sometimes talked to no one but the earth itself or hummed a little song when you thought no one listened.
He watched you as Zhongli and watched over you as Morax. Zhongli couldn’t help but allow his thoughts to wander towards you when he pondered about the prospect of putting Morax to rest. As he longed for a life like the humans he protected for so long.
Zhongli seamlessly guided you as Morax to a shelter he created for you, to protect you from the storm. His mind, needlessly wandered once again, to life and death and what it meant to be truly alive. Earth, in some ways, was dead and unmoving until the water was added to the mix. With seed and the right nutrition, it brought to life the most beautiful things.
He descended the earth in his human form, just in time to catch your hand and lead you to the safe place he created just for you. When your eyes met his for the very first time, Zhongli wondered — and he did so many times in the past — with just the right approach, would you allow him to plant his seed inside you? To watch it take root in your womb, what miracles would the two of you create together?
There was one way to find out.
