Yanyan

The subject can manipulate special flames. As her usual weapon is a slingshot, she typically condenses flames into fireballs with a radius of less than 10cm and shoots them. Additionally, she possesses a mysterious propheticc gift which occasionally subjects her to disturbing visions of oracles and makes her convey information from unknown sources in an unconscious state.

According to the subject, she sustained a disaster in her childhood which led to the loss of her parents and home. In a critical situation, she heard a mysterious calling and was taken over by visions. She claims that she saw the god at that moment, and that was when her power awakened.

Moderate degree of corruption despite lack of mutations on the body surface. She is usually sane, but will become unconscious when she is possessed to convey oracles, during which her mind becomes unstable.

Born in Outland, the subject was revered as a spiritually gifted Sinner in her homeland. She visited DisCity as a member of the Eastian delegation. Possessing a prophetic gift for sensing divine will and conveying oracles, she actively cooperated with the DisCity authorities to counter the Apostle of Ashes Sun Crow. However, during her temporary stay in DisCity, her abilities were unstable, resulting in disruptions to routine operations, damage to public property, and public disorder. Detention and supervision of the subject during her temporary stay in DisCity is recommended.

It has been clarified that the subject's abilities are closely related to the customs and geography of Eastia, so their effectiveness is limited in DisCity. Additionally, she was deeply demoralized by the failure of the Sun Shot, leading to a series of unintentionally inaccurate prophecies. Her true character is sincere and lively and she always acts out of goodwill. She gradually regained her abilities and faith as a seer during her temporary stay in DisCity, under the guidance and companionship of Chief. She has now left DisCity to return to Eastia. Supervision for the subject has come to an end for now.

She did not return home with the Eastian delegation after the repairs, claiming she needed to deepen her understanding of DisCity and requesting a temporary stay. After negotiations, the Bureau has extended her detention and supervision as an A-Class Sinner for a short period. She has no objections to this arrangement and cooperates actively with the Bureau.

Due to her special prophetic gift and her high sensitivity and passion for myths, she had been designated as the next seer, a position she felt a great sense of responsibility for. However, after experiencing the series of events in DisCity, her beliefs were shaken. Faced with the instability of her abilities, she now fears she's not fit for the duties of a seer.

Raised by her grandmother, a folk culture enthusiast and researcher, the girl grew up listening to myriad myths and legends told by her only family. Influenced by her, the subject developed a profound interest in folklore and myths, inheriting her grandmother's unwavering belief in the divine. She takes it upon herself to seek ot and prove the existence of gods.

As a child, she lost her parents to a disaster. Her special power was later awakened following the vision of a divine oracle, and she used it to protect herself and her grandmother. Over time, this ability grew stronger. Under her grandmother's guidance, she learned about pursuing the gods, hoping to use the divine power to fulfill people's wishes and lead them to overcome disasters.

The Eastian delegation has left DisCity, but Yanyan has stayed behind. The Chief had instructed their staff to take Yanyan's prophecies seriously, but she has predicted a string of disasters for various departments in the Bureau, none of which have come true. The Chief is reluctantly forced to have a conversation with Yanyan about it. When they sit to talk with her, she quickly launches into her latest prophetic dream, this one about an evil spirit born in an alley untouched by sunlight. Despite Yanyan's urgency, the Chief is unmoved. They ask her why she decided to stay in DisCity and when she plans on leaving, but she shiftily keeps trying to move the conversation back to her new prophecy. Eventually, the Chief lays out the reports of her failed predictions. Yanyan tries to make excuses as to why things didn't turn out as she expected, but eventually she admits that she has been having issues with her ability. She says that ever since the Sun Crow was vanquished, her predictions have become less reliable. They realize that her powers are based on faith, and that her failure to defeat the Sun Crow with her sun shot shook her belief in herself. She has avoided going home to Eastia because she doesn't believe she can be a good seer like this, but the more she worries, the worse her predictions become.

The Chief regrets their negligence, which has allowed Yanyan to become so anxious without even noticing. They decide that to replenish her self-confidence as a seer, they need to show her that she can still help protect people, and they decide to start with her new evil spirit prophecy.

Struck by reality, Yanyan admits something is wrong with her abilities. To help repair her power and faith, you decide to take her to verify her latest prophecy.

The evil spirit in the alley that Yanyan predicted turns out to just be an open sewer grate, but Yanyan at least saves an old woman from falling into it. She is initially disappointed by another failed prophecy, but she's quickly distracted as the old woman turns out to be searching for aliens. Excited by this new adventure, Yanyan insists on going with her to the next location on her search, a magical wishing tree. Their endeavor is predictably fruitless, but Yanyan and the old woman quickly bond, as the woman reminds Yanyan of her granny and Yanyan reminds the woman of her daughter. Eventually, the old woman reveals that her daughter died when she was young, and that she began alien hunting because of her daughter's fascination with them. Her daughter also died with a secret wish, which the woman has always guessed was to know whether aliens were real. In order to help this woman, Yanyan is determined to use her ability to divine what the girl's final wish really was.

The old lady who resembles Yanyan's grandmother has a sorrowful past. Moved by her story, Yanyan decides to help her fulfill her wish after careful consideration.

Yanyan tries to channel the spirit of the old woman's dead daughter. Her power fluctuates wildly and it causes her intense anguish as she relives all the disasters of her life and all her failures during the Sun Crow operation. She snaps out of it once and the woman begs her to stop, but Yanyan brushes her off. The Chief backs Yanyan up and insists that she knows her own limits. Yanyan makes another attempt, and this time, she succeeds at channeling the dead girl's spirit into her body. The old woman and her daughter happily reconnect, sharing stories and photos about her alien investigations. But before long, the girl's spirit begins to fade. The old woman asks what wish her daughter died with, and she replies that it doesn't matter, because it's already been fulfilled. Her only remaining wish is for her mother to live out the rest of her life safely and happily.

Yanyan returns to her senses. She apologizes to the old woman for not being able to channel longer, as her skills are still developing, but the woman has nothing but gratitude toward her. Yanyan thanks her too for giving her the chance to get back her motivation as a seer. Several days later, Yanyan returns to Eastia. She is back to the cheerful girl she was before, but has also gained a sense of purpose and confidence that she never had. She and the Chief both agree that by the next time they meet, she will surely be Eastia's greatest seer.

Having shed her doubts and concerns, Yanyan grows like a sun-facing flower toward her goal as a reliable seer.
At the moment of farewell, you make a pinky promise with each other about the luminous future.

She often resorts to superstitious customs and rituals to solve problems. Such a practice deviates from the DisCity's culture and has sparked a sensation within the Bureau, and the subject is also keen on showcasing her knowledge. Despite the inconsistency in the spells she recites during her performances, the enthusiasm on either side has not been dampened.

Coming from an entirely different culture, the subject is highly curious about all the dishes offered in the cafeteria and is keen on observing the work in the kitchen. Once, she mistook a plate of salad for a raw ingredient and stir-fried it, but the dish received surprisingly positive feedback.

With her genuine and lively personality, she has quickly become a beloved figure among the Sinners during her stay at the Bureau. She has grown especially close to the Sinners from Eastia. Although her boundless curiosity and barrage of questions sometimes overwhelm some Sinners, the situation is gradually improving.

She invited Chief to join the DisCity Myth Tour she organized. Some of its highlights include an ethereal, incorporeal beautiful lady, a talking glowing tablet, and a highly addictive herbal soup. The tour lasted 18 hours and 21 minutes. After that, Chief decided to start reading the encyclopedia to get better prepared for next time.

[Yanyan races into your office, holding a plate of steaming hot food she has just made.]

Yanyan: Quick! Have a taste of this, Chief. It's a dish from my hometown. Took me a long time to make it.

Chief: ......

• Prompt: Fantastic! I'd love to have a taste.
• Yanyan: Not bad, huh? I kneaded the dough myself, just so you know.
• Yanyan: 😘😘😘

• Prompt: One second. Let me clear a space on the desk for the plate.
• Yanyan: Please hurry up! It's really hot. Ouch, ouch, ouch...
• Yanyan: 😖😖😖

[You notice something amiss with the library door. A mythology book is keeping the door from closing. Yanyan has taken down all the mythology books from their shelves, and one of them must have fallen.]

Yanyan: Ha! Chief, what are you doing here?

Chief: ......

• Prompt: You like myths, Yanyan?
• Yanyan: I love them! They vary greatly from region to region. Haha, DisCity myths are also very interesting.
• Yanyan: 😘😘😘

• Prompt: Remember to put them back where they were.
• Yanyan: I will, after I finish this story.
• Yanyan: 😫😫

⚠ A Question Machine

Yanyan is an avid reader with many questions.

System Notifications: Yanyan loves spending time in the library. Due to the cultural differences, she often has difficulty in understanding some of the text she is reading.
Whenever this happens, she'll accost whoever happens to be near her and ply them with questions.

• Prompt: Add children's science books to the library

System Notifications: To provide Yanyan with a way of looking for answers to her questions, you quickly compile a comprehensive list of children's science books and send it to the office responsible for the management of the library.

System Notifications: That night, you develop stomach cramps. When the pain becomes too much, you go to the infirmary to seek medical attention, only to find that many Sinners have suffered the same fate.

⚠⚠ A Master Storyteller

Yanyan turns herself into a channeler while telling a ghost story, much to the horror of her audience.

System Notifications: You've been receiving daily notifications of gatherings in the recreation room recently. You guess it might be some team-building activity organized by the Sinners, so you've chosen to stay out of it.

System Notifications: A few days later, however, the therapist's office, which is normally empty, suddenly becomes overcrowded, much to your bewilderment.

• Prompt: Investigate

System Notifications: After talking to the therapist, you come to the recreation room, where Yanyan is telling a story to a small crowd in the dim light.

Yanyan: This story has its origins in my hometown Eastia. Ready? Once upon a time, there were these two good friends who traveled together in the mountains. It grew dark, and they couldn't find an inn...

Yanyan: What did they do next? They searched and searched. Finally, they stumbled across a dilapidated abandoned house. Since they didn't have a better choice, they decided to make do...

Yanyan: As soon as they stepped into the house, they saw a human-shaped shadow flash by!
The two fled, screaming. It was dark. Neither of them looked to see if the other was running in the same direction.

Yanyan: After running for a long while, one of them stopped to catch his breath. Looking up, he found himself in a dark forest.
To his relief, his friend was not far away, also panting.

Yanyan: He ran over to where his friend was; he wanted to check the map with his friend to determine where they were. At that moment, his friend, who hadn't made a sound since they left that spooky house, said...

Yanyan: "Take another look. Do I really look like your friend?"

System Notifications: As she utters the last word, Yanyan opens her eyes wide, and lunges forward with her hands held out in front of her.

Crowd: Ahhh... Help! The ghost is really here!

System Notifications: Some members of the audience get scared and make a beeline for the door. You are starting to understand why the therapist's office has been so busy lately.

Chief: But... can someone be so scared by ghost stories that they need to see a therapist?

System Notifications: You're thinking about how to tactfully convince Yanyan to switch to a different type of story, when a sudden change in her expression shocks you.

Yanyan: Look! Do I look like a ghost? Hahaha...

System Notifications: Yanyan's face looks grotesque and menacing, and her voice no longer carries that subdued tone she adopted for storytelling. It is as if she has allowed the evil ghost from the story to inhabit her body.

System Notifications: The members of the audience who have managed to remain in the room now scramble to get to the door, screaming as they go. It is a scene of total chaos.

Chief: This is... a Mania Flux? Oh dear! She has turned herself into a channeler!

• Prompt: Forbid Yanyan from using channeling in her storytelling

Chief: No wonder the therapist's office is always packed these days... Yanyan, you must stop using channeling in your storytelling.

⚠⚠ An Impressive Magic Item

An excited Yanyan comes to take you to see the magic item she has just discovered.

System Notifications: Yanyan seeks you out while you're alone, excitement writ large on her face.

• Prompt: What's the matter?

Yanyan: I was exploring the Bureau just now, and I discovered an awesome magic item. It's just around that corner!

Chief: Really? You mean, inside the Bureau?

Yanyan: Yes. Come on, let's go! I'll show you the way.

System Notifications: Yanyan grabs your hand and starts dragging you to where this supposed magic item is located. After many twists and turns, the two of you finally arrive at the room that houses the Energy Furnace.

Chief: Is this the magic item you're talking about?

Yanyan: Yes! I touched the surface just now. Cold to the touch. "Cold as jade," the book says.

Chief: ...

Yanyan: And the red light... "Strikingly bright, with dots of scarlet," the book also says.

Chief: ...

Yanyan: And look at its shape. Narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with many straight lines and curves. This is Immortal's Alchemy Furnace. I saw a picture of it in the book.
I'm telling you, it's a very powerful magic item.

Chief: ...

Chief: Yanyan, do you know what an Energy Furnace is?

Yanyan: ?

System Notifications: With some difficulty, you more or less get through to her what the Energy Furnace is for, and how it is an important piece of equipment for the Bureau, not something to be meddled with.

Yanyan: So this isn't a magical item? Are you sure? It looks exactly like the one I saw in the book.

• Prompt: Take the opportunity to spark Yanyan's interest in technology

Chief: Yanyan, there may be a resemblance between the two in appearance, but their functions couldn't be more different.

Chief: There are books on this subject that provide detailed descriptions and illustrations of this sort of device.

Chief: You can borrow them from the library, if you're interested. How does that sound?

⚠⚠⚠ Homesickness

Yanyan is feeling homesick.

System Notifications: One day, walking past the Recreation Room, you catch Yanyan sitting in the room all by herself.

• Prompt: She is uncharacteristically quiet; find out what happened

System Notifications: Yanyan is staring at the television, motionless as a statue, her eyes rimmed with red.

System Notifications: You follow her gaze. A colorful, noisy advertisement is playing on TV, a stark contrast to the melancholy mood of the room.

Chief: What's wrong? Was someone being mean to you?

System Notifications: Yanyan turns to look at you. She shakes her head, wordless.

System Notifications: The advertisement ends. The documentary The Eastia Chronicle comes back on. Now you understand why she is gloomy.

Chief: Yanyan, are you feeling homesick?

System Notifications: Yanyan lowers her head, her body trembling. She bites her lip to keep the tears at bay, but to no avail. She bursts out crying.

Yanyan: It's not your fault, Chief. It's nobody's fault, really.

Yanyan: DisCity is great, you are great, the others are great, including that big fellow in white armor... but this isn't my home.

Yanyan: I know I can't go home until the mission is completed; I don't plan on leaving now... Sob... It's just that I... I miss my grandma's beef soup.

System Notifications: Looking at Yanyan's tear-stained face, you decide to do something to cheer her up.

• Prompt: Organize an Outlands cuisine party
• System Notifications: You decide to throw an Outlands cuisine party for Yanyan. Many of the Sinners, upon hearing the news, are eager to participate; it's a chance for them to show off their culinary skills.
• Yanyan: Wait... Don't throw the taro in just yet. We want to make sure the final product has a soft, glutinous texture. Give it to me.
• Yanyan: Hey, hold it! You should score the tomatoes first, which will make it easier for them to give extra flavor to the soup. What? You don't know how to score them?
• System Notifications: ...
• System Notifications: The dishes are ready. Yanyan has been the busiest one among the bunch. Nevertheless, she is in a much better mood now.
• System Notifications: Yanyan's dishes are well received. Afterward, those Sinners who are from Eastia come together to form a hometown association, and Yanyan is often invited to cook and enjoy meals with them.

• Prompt: Gather all the Sinners of Eastian origin together
• System Notifications: You gather all the Sinners of Eastian origin together. Yanyan is also present. After you briefly explain why you've gathered them together, one of them floats the idea of a hometown association.
• Yanyan: Yay! Let me be the president!
• Yanyan: Let me see... What should we do together as members of this new hometown association? Ha! Let's go search for miracles!
• Prompt: Dissuade Yanyan
• Chief: Yanyan, searching for miracles is your assignment. It's work. Why don't you think of something more relaxing?
• Yanyan: You're right. The people of Eastia would usually celebrate a memorable occasion like this with a good meal. All right then, let's have a meal!
• System Notifications: There are going to be a lot of busy days ahead, you think as you look at the unbridled enthusiasm on Yanyan's face. Well, as long as she's happy.

A button-down gown designed for running around. Perfect for a lively and active little girl.

How strange... The map says the miracle lies here. Why can't I find it? Ah, that's... Don't you run!
