I think you're a very dutiful person, honestly. At least of what I've seen.
[ yeah. yeah it sucks doesn't it. ]
... When I left the pond and was brought to live in the castle, my feelings were that the only thing I wanted to do for the rest of my life was to have no responsibilities, no cares at all except to enjoy my time, because I had somehow miraculously ended up with all of the things that I had ever wanted. True love, a home, safe behind thick castle walls.
And I forgot, or never learned at all, that those things don't just stay on their own. You do have a duty to care for the things you have, that you love. I didn't, and I lost them because of that. I think Nahri probably feels the same, that she just doesn't want to lose something she loves, or will feel as if she has doomed them because of it.
[it's funny, because she doesn't think of herself as one - but she is, in her own sense. just because it isn't a castle or a kingdom or the fate of the world that she's responsible for doesn't mean she isn't diligent in how she carries out her every day.
she watches him as he speaks, and then:]
I know that you have your responsibility.
... But Teyvat is still open to you. If you ever need a place to go, if you ever find a way there, I will be in Liyue waiting.
