[While he doesn't think the question is unreasonable, it makes him lapse in silence at first. Eventually, he calmly responds:]
The spaceship we arrived in crashed and when we tried to escape Teyvat, we were caught by an unknown god and imprisoned. I woke up 500 years later and my sister was nowhere to be found.
[So it wasn't really his choice, not at first.]
But... as I travelled through the world I discovered many beautiful places and met many amazing people...
[After saying that, Aether falls silent once more.
His journey wasn't easy: it was lonely. He got forced into helping many times, sometimes receiving not even a small "thank you" in return, following leads that got him nowhere, trying to find his sister who refused to tell him the entire truth.
And yet... He presses a hand over his heart. He has so many memories that fill his chest with warmth. His expressions softens when he thinks about it.]
