A Honkai: Zhongli x Star Rail

When Zhongli opens his eyes, he finds himself aboard the Astral Express, a train that traverses the cosmos, carrying passengers bound by fate. Gone are the stone pillars and the comforting embrace of Liyue’s mountains—his connection to Geo severed, his Vision absent. Yet, an unfamiliar power lingers within him, raw and unshaped, waiting to be understood. As he adapts to this strange new world, Zhongli is drawn into the conflict surrounding 'Stellarons', chaotic anomalies capable of unraveling entire civilizations. The Astral Express crew welcomes him, though questions remain: 'How did he arrive here? What force brought him across worlds? And why does the presence of Aeons—gods who shape reality itself—stir something deep within his ancient soul?' With his knowledge of contracts, history, and war, Zhongli must navigate this new era, where the weight of immortality is measured against the vastness of the stars. Yet, even among the unknown, one truth remains constant: a contract, once made, must be honored. But this time, the terms are yet to be revealed. --- All Rights Reserved This is a work of fan fiction inspired by Honkai: Star Rail (owned by HoYoverse) and Genshin Impact (owned by HoYoverse).
