Name: Tartaglia
Memory Prompts: Jumping on the Eski/Octa train, I feel like it would be more fun if Tartaglia's memories were more interactive instead of just watching it movie style! So:
➤ liyue - harbour; (img references: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 )
( liyue harbour. nestled like a jewel in the mouth of the blue sea. the mountains behind the city look as if it is rushing down to meet the ocean. the weather is warm, too warm, and there is always the constant, itching discomfort in the back of your mind as you walk down the streets. it's a busy day; the markets are bursting with people, with voices, with kids running around underfoot and cartloads of shipment being driven through the cobbled streets as they are unloaded from the ships moored at the harbour.

this one can be like an exploration style in the POV of childe's fatui subordinate, liyue is so pretty in game and if it sounds fun for your characters to experience the city, let's go for it!! please find location references here if you'd like! for liyue there is actually a lot of material and other fun things, so please note i'm also happy to share: lantern rite as well which is also super pretty )

➤ inazuma - fireworks; (img references: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 )
( compared to the golden burnt umber of liyue, inazuma is shades of purple, electric and blazing, cut through with dark red of perpetual maple trees. it's a festival - stretching from one end of the city to the other, from the ocean to high up in the mountains where the sacred sakura tree blooms under the moonlight. and are those a few foxes you can see between the tall reeds, yawning and bored and oddly unaffected by humans so close to them? the fireworks blaze brightly in the sky, each accompanied by a deafening bang and excited shouts from the crowds out to enjoy the festival and the fireworks. there's lots of food and games too - think kitsune and oni-shaped masks, tricolour dango, delicious skewers roasting over charcoal, boba pearl tea dango milk ... as well as lots of games!

in this memory, you will be (unfortunately?) in the body of one certain rogue harbinger, ducking and weaving through the crowds and behind stalls in some weird hide and seek with tartaglia. this is just a fun way for me to make fun of childe for canonly never being able to track down scaramouche, so go wild! you can (maybe) easily give him the slip and go have fun in the festival! )

➤ snezhnaya - forest; (img references: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 )
( snow-covered forest. silent, with only crunching of boots on the frozen ground and the crack of odd branches. a sudden flapping of wings as some bird, unseen, takes flight. the branches are so dense overhead that you can barely see the sky, just overarching sense of space. there is no lighted lantern, no glimpse of anything familiar. you just keep walking, feeling the sky overhead pressing down heavier and heavier as the hours pass. are you lost? is that whistling of the wind, or is that some animal howl?

in this memory, you will be another runaway lost child to interact with tartaglia. he is a boy of about 13~14 years old. this memory is if you want to learn more about him before he became tartaglia. NOT recommended if you want to refer back on this memory with him later because he has disassociated himself with this version of him for some time now! )

all three can branch off into other memories from the specific nation (or we can skip to another nation, etc) if you'd like, so we can always talk and see what you feel like doing!

apart from these there's other memories related to: (fallout with his family and getting sold to the military, the tsaritsa, other harbingers, more fighting, use of delusion (man made elemental magic basically), awakening an ancient god to drown the whole city, some other "fun" things like that) so if you are wanting memories that are a little darker, hit me up and we can hash something out! thank you!
