The Good Doctor and the Violet Cat

Oh, this is good fortune indeed! I must have the devil's own luck.. Keh-hahah! That much is already obvious, is it not? Anyhow...! You're just who I was looking for... I perused every last inscrutable inch of the halls of the Umbral Ushiromiya Castle looking for you, you know! Why did I spend such an indignant sum of time searching for you instead of simply calling you over? Keheheh... The answer should be obvious... I suppose you truly do still have much to learn from your sagacious future lord of darkness... The remarkable truth that lays before you, bare as a newly born lad... Is that it was a surprise! And that desultory, protean surprise is... My awe-inspiring results from the new Genshin banner!!! You see, today marks the occasion of Baizhu's first banner... A sickly doctor who forms a contract with a snake in order to seek an endless life... Keheh, I'm sure even a gentle spirit like him would find himself green with envy if he learned of my own lifespan... But, the doctor Baizhu isn't the only new five star to concatenate with the ranks of Trevor Ushiromiya... None other than Keqing, a fellow member of the nation of Liyue, joined us as well! Admittedly, I was rather... Disconsolate, when I first received her. You see, in the fortitous world of Teyvat, whenever you receive a five star character, you are subject to a 50/50 chance of receiving the character featured on the banner that you are currently rolling on, or instead receiving one of the seven standard characters instead. Yes... What you are thinking is true... Your future dark lord was the hapless victim of lady luck's deleterious misfortune... After receiving Keqing in a rather early 40 wishes, it required from me another 80 wishes to obtain Baizhu... A rather debilitating chunk of my previously-endless reservoir was carved out, leaving a bleak chasm the size of 120 intertwined fates where they previously resided... At the very least, receiving Keqing is far, far better than receiving Qiqi... Once, I even heard of a man who received Qiqi three times in a row... I shudder to imagine dark, unforgiving path that he must have went down, following such a sorrowful tragedy...
