[Admittedly, when Zhongli opens the book, he's at first intrigued, then a little puzzled. But as Trahearne explains, he looks up in surprise, and then back at the book. When he does, his expression goes softer and warmer, and he runs a hand tenderly over the cover of the book.]

Trahearne... truly, this is such a heartfelt gift. Though I do not believe the effects of Erosion can extend to this realm, the fact you wish for me to have this here for me to use... I am touched by your concern and generosity.

[He holds the tome close, reaching to hold Trahearne's hand and gently tug it to encourage him to come closer.]

I will be happy to write my story for you, and to have you read it. To share this with you... it would make me more than happy. Thank you, my dear... this gift means so much to me.
