Quest Description

On the bustling streets of Liyue Harbor, you and Paimon are drawn to a painter making paper cutouts. You spy two familiar silhouettes among the items she is preparing...

(Talk to Wenxun): Wenxun: Round and fluffy, soft and bouncy, jump and bump...; Wenxun: Oh my! Guests! Welcome, welcome, and allow me, Wenxun, to be the first to wish the two of you a joyous Lantern Rite!; Paimon: Happy Lantern Rite, Ms. Wenxun!; Paimon: You seemed to be reciting something just now. What were you talking to yourself about?; Considering some delectable dessert?; Or perhaps a revolutionary recipe?; Wenxun: Not far off the mark — nearly a hole-in-one! I was just thinking about the food Guoba and Yuegui are gonna make!; Paimon: Eh? Now those are names we know... You know Guoba and Yuegui too?; Wenxun: Hehe, how could I not? You're looking at one of Wanmin Restaurant's regulars, you know!; Wenxun: As long as I'm not on the road, I eat at least seven meals a week at Wanmin Restaurant!; Wenxun: When paired with my hometown style of cooking — first some lightly seasoned fare, then a spicy flavor bomb — it's just a smash hit!; Wenxun: If I end up with too much heatiness, just need to down some of the right meds and flush it right out, and then after a couple of days recuperating, it's back to gorging myself in chow-town!; That sounds amazing...; Best take it easy...; Paimon: P—P—Paimon also wants to try living like that...; Wenxun: Anyway, I get to see Guoba and Xiangling pretty much every week, and sometimes even little Yaoyao.; Wenxun: When Yaoyao brings Yuegui along to see Xiangling, Guoba and Yuegui end up playing together.; Wenxun: Ahh, it's wonderful! No matter how exhausting work is, just watching them shake and sway is enough to sweep all your cares away!; Wenxun: But I can't be the only one being cured by Guoba and Yuegui! I want everyone to bear witness to their cuteness for themselves!; Paimon: Well said! Now this is something important! But just how do you plan to do it?; Paimon: Unless... These things on the table are...; Wenxun: Bingo! I just made a "paper theater" featuring Guoba and Yuegui as the stars! Everything you see here at this stall is a prop for the paper theater!; Paimon: "Paper Theater"... That name sounds kinda familiar, doesn't it? Is it about the canvas behind you, and watching the... shadows on it?; Wenxun: You guys may have heard of "Paper Plays," a traditional Liyue art form. By artfully using the pictures and lights, you can make the scenes on the screen come to life.; Wenxun: I've loved paper plays since I was a kid, and learned a bit about them from Master Yinggong. After I grew up, I became a painter, studying and traveling all over.; Wenxun: While I was in Fontaine, I learned a few new drawing techniques and a thing or two about filming. I had quite a few sparks of inspiration, too.; Wenxun: So, using paper plays as a basis, I tried creating a novel interactive game, and thus, the "paper theater" you see before you was born!; Wenxun: Paper theater and paper plays also have very different styles. Paper theater focuses on simple, short stories that'll bring a smile to the audience.; Wenxun: So, that's why this year's first paper theater will be all about an especially amiable story — Guoba and Yuegui looking for ingredients to cook up something delicious together!; Paimon: Guoba and Yuegui cooking together? That sounds really interesting!; Fun and food in one place!; Now that's worth paying attention to.; Wenxun: Hehe, looks like you two are totally on board! Your excitement is inspiring!; Wenxun: Then there's no time to lose! Please, just relax, and get ready to enjoy this paper theater performance!
