Dialogue[]

Noelle is mistaken for a Knight of Favonius several times over the course of the trip. After things have calmed down a little, you decide to see what Noelle could learn from the Millelith down by the harbor.
Down at the dock, you and Noelle meet Sha'yin, a Millelith seeking the assistance of the Knights of Favonius. You follow him to Stone Gate to help with the arrest of some Treasure hoarders on the Run.
It seems that Noelle wants to spend some quality time with you before you both head back to Mondstadt.

Crook-Catching Commission[]
- ???: While the Millelith stands guard, evil shall never prevail. Wow, it's good to finally meet you two.
You've been looking for us?
- ???: Yes. Word is that a Knight of Favonius has appeared in Liyue. That's why I came to have a look. I never expected that one of you would be the honored guest of the Qixing. And the other one...
- ???: ...Must be the rumored Knight of Favonius.
- Noelle: Oh, um... Sorry, I am not yet a Knight...
Here's the situation...
- You explain the situation to the Millelith...
- ???: I see, I see. Please excuse me for the misunderstanding.
- Sha'yin: Allow me to introduce myself first. My name is Sha'yin, a Millelith responsible for garrison and patrol duties.
I am (TravelerTraveler), a traveler.
- Noelle: And I am Noelle, maid of the Knights of Favonius... Of course, I am not yet an official Knight.
- Sha'yin: Understood. Allow me to apologize on behalf of all the residents of this area for the misunderstanding earlier.
- Noelle: It's no big deal. More importantly — is there a reason why you were looking for a Knight of Favonius? May I be of any assistance?
- Sha'yin: Well... Let me fill you in. I just received some intel that a group of Treasure Hoarders, originally from Mondstadt, has shown up in this area recently.
- Sha'yin: According to the intel, they have set up camp near Stone Gate. If we act too rashly and let them escape back to Mondstadt, then it will be difficult for the Millelith to continue pursuing them.
- Sha'yin: That's why I was hoping the Knight of Favonius could join me in the arrest, so we could act as each others' witnesses. But it seems like this is easier said than done...
- Noelle: I'm sorry... If only I could have passed the selection exam earlier...
- Sha'yin: Uhh... If I submitted an official request for assistance to the Knights of Favonius, all I would achieve is to buy the Treasure Hoarders time to plan their escape... Might I ask if there are any other Knights of Favonius in Liyue Harbor at present?
- Noelle: Hmm, any other Knights in Liyue... Oh! Of course! If it's a knight you need, well, there's one right here!
Now you mention it... I am technically an Honorary Knight.
- Sha'yin: An honored guest of the Qixing, and an Honorary Knight, too... Well, if someone who's independently a hero in two different nations is willing to lend me a hand, I can't exactly do better than that... It's just that...
- Sha'yin: ...I feel a little ashamed calling on a hero who defeats ancient gods to assist with something so trivial.
- TravelerTraveler), as well as Stormterror... you defeated an ancient god, too? Noelle: Wait, so... (
It's honestly no trouble.
- Sha'yin: Then I am truly honored! Please excuse me while I catch up with my comrades stationed at Stone Gate. I will confirm the details of the arrest with them. Whenever the two of you are ready, please come and find me there.
- Sha'yin: Let's rendezvous shortly. While the Millelith stands guard, evil shall never prevail.
- (Head near Stone Gate)
- Sha'yin: While the Millelith stands guard, evil shall never prevail. Thank you both for your help. We've confirmed the location of the Treasure Hoarders and we will move out shortly.
- Sha'yin: In case any of them slip through our grasp and try to escape to Mondstadt, we will need someone to guard this path.
- Sha'yin: As I said earlier, it would not be appropriate for the Millelith to take action here, so I will have to rely on you two.
- Noelle: Um... Though I am not a Knight of Favonius yet... May I still help in some capacity?
- Sha'yin: Oh, I only asked the Honorary Knight here to act as a witness. There are no specific restrictions over how the arrest is carried out. So please, there's no need to feel apprehensive about your involvement.
- Noelle: If that's the case, I... I shall be glad to help to the fullest extend that I am able.
I'll help too.
- Sha'yin: Then I will meet up with my comrades first. If the Treasure Hoarders try to escape, they will have to pass through here. So, I am counting on you two.
- (Head to the location to stand guard)
- TravelerTraveler), would you mind... letting me handle this mission? Noelle: Um... (
Noelle, you want to guard this place by yourself?
- Noelle: Yes... If it hadn't been for you, I would not have been able to participate.
- Noelle: As expected, compared to the Honorary Knight, I still have a long way to go...
- Noelle: But I still want to do everything within my ability to share the load!
I will stand by and watch. Try not to push yourself too hard.
- Noelle: As you wish! Then, leave it all to me!
- (Treasure Hoarders appear)
- Noelle: Ah, they're coming already! Facing them alone... Do I have what it takes?
- (After defeating opponents)
- Noelle: I did it... I actually did it!
Because you have what it takes.
- Noelle: No... It's all because of your encouragement... Otherwise, I...
- Sha'yin: Thank you! We've successfully detained all the Treasure Hoarders who tried to escape through here.
- Sha'yin: We've double checked the numbers against the intel we were given, and it looks like none of then escaped. ...Small wonder that you are the honored guest of the Qixing and Mondstadt's Honorary Knight...
I actually did nothing.
Noelle took care of it all.
- Sha'yin: Oh? It was Miss Noelle who defeated the Treasure Hoarders? Thank you so much!
- Noelle: Y—You're quite welcome!
- Noelle: To be of help to you, Sir, and to the Millelith... It is my great honor.
- Sha'yin: You are too humble. I hear from the merchants that the Knights of Favonius of Mondstadt are both highly skilled and only too willing to rescue people in the direst of situations.
- Sha'yin: With the skills and integrity you've shown, it's no wonder that the residents of Chihu Rock mistook you for a real knight.
- Noelle: Sadly they are quite mistaken! I am still far from becoming a real knight...
- Sha'yin: Heh, then I sincerely look forward to seeing you in action in the future, after you do become a real knight.
- Sha'yin: It's getting late. I should escort these Treasure Hoarders back. While the Millelith stands guard, evil shall never prevail. Hope to meet you both again.
- Noelle: Goodbye, Mr. Sha'yin!
- Noelle: A real knight... How much longer until I become worthy of this title...?
We should probably head back, too.
- Noelle: Oh, you're right... Wow, the time flew by so quickly...
- Noelle: Is it really time to go back already?
Noelle?
- Noelle: Apologies, I know that this is a lot to ask, but...
- Noelle: But could you... spend a little longer with me?
- Noelle: I still have somewhere that I'd like to visit.
- (Head to the place Noelle wants to go)
- Noelle: This is the place.
So you wanted to visit a tea stall.
- Noelle: That's right. I often make tea for the Knights of Favonius, so I wanted to come here and see what I can learn.
- TravelerTraveler), would you care to join me for some tea? Noelle: (
Of course.
- You and Noelle enjoy some of Liyue's tea together...
- Noelle: *blowing* ...Liyue's tea is certainly different from that of Mondstadt.
- Noelle: Both the taste and the consistency are different, but the warm and soothing sense it brings me as I drink it... That feels the same.
- Noelle: When I read about the Knights of Favonius and the Millelith in books, their rules and philosophies seem to different...
- Noelle: But it seems the desire to protect one's own people is the same everywhere.
Whether in Mondstadt or Liyue, everyone just wants to have a better future.
And whether by Anemo or Geo, people will seek to protect what is most important.
- Noelle: Yes, deep down, people everywhere are the same...
- TravelerTraveler), I don't think I'm so afraid of my exam anymore. Noelle: (
- Noelle: I know I still have a long way to go compared to the Honorary Knight — listening to your stories is like reading about myths and legends...
- Noelle: But still... This motivates me to work harder and look forward even more to the day when it finally comes...
- Noelle: ...The day that I can fight side by side with you as a knight.
- TravelerTraveler), let's come back to Liyue again... after my exam is over. Noelle: (
