The Four Dendros

"Alright Klee, your job today is quite simple, you need to go to a little place called Sumeru to collect some vegetables for us" said Amber. "Huh, I've never heard of this Sumeru place, well you got it, Amber, I'll be back in no time!" said Klee. "At a girl, but the journey is quite long, takes usually about 30 minutes to get here and there" informed Amber. "No problem for me" assured Klee. After a while, Klee finally made it, she saw someone who she never expected to be there. "Are you the Archon of Dendro herself, Nahida?" Klee asked. "In all her former glory, and you must be Klee, I suppose?" Nahida asked. "Well what are you doing here?" Klee said. "I've been doing the same thing as you Pyros, training people in order to get their seals, um actually, I don't think we can talk right now, you need to deliver these vegetables" "Oh, don't worry, I have time, Amber doesn't put time limits on things unless it's necessary" Klee said. "Well, we Dendros are quite different from the rest, we help farmers grow crops, we grow vegetables for people, and we have a major effect on the ecosystem as well" said Nahida. "That's nice, do you have a squad as well? "Well yes, but it's quite small, we're expecting two new members to arrive soon, their names are Collei and Baizhu, hopefully you'll meet them soon" "But for the longest time, it used to be just me and Yaoyao who did all the work, oh I do miss her deeply" she said solemnly. "What ever happened to her?" asked Klee. "She had been poisoned by some plants while working and won't return until next week" "That's unfortunate, hope she feels better" comforted Klee. Nahida just shook her head in agreement. "Well I ought to get going, don't want these vegetables to spoil, it was nice talking to you, hope we meet again sometime" "I'm sure we will, bye bye. Klee then told Xiangling and Hu Tao about Nahida and the Dendros. "So all they do is just plant stuff, that doesn't sound really useful to me" said Xiangling. "Well actually, Xiangling, they're very important to our ecosystem, without them the plants would die out and then we have no oxygen to survive" informed Klee. Xiangling just snorted rudefully. "Speaking of which, Xiangling, your job tomorrow is to collect some vegetables as well" said Amber. "I'll see what these Dendros are like for myself" Xiangling stated. Next day at the hideout at Sumeru, two people came, they were Collei and Baizhu. "Nice to finally meet you two, my name's Nahida, you'll be doing daily jobs to prove that you can earn your seal" "This tent's too small to sleep in, how can you manage?" said Baizhu rudely. "Watch your tone, Baizhu, that's the famous Nahida you're speaking to, my apologies, Baizhu's not that bad really" Collei said. "I see" said Nahida. "Actually, Baizhu, I want you to grab those vegetables, someone's going to collect them soon" Nahida said. "Oh please, that's too easy, I can do that in no time" remarked Baizhu. Xiangling was waiting for Baizhu to deliver the vegetables. "Hello there, I'm Baizhu, who are you?" "The name's Xiangling, you're new around here, so I've heard?" "That's right, but once I get done with this, I'm going to sleep, so tell me, was it fun to embarrass yourself with those polearms, or to be called a lewd hothead, or maybe be outsmarted by the others, well can't talk right now, until we meet again, missy" he said, leaving Xiangling at a loss for words. "Well, do I have anything to do, Nahida?" asked Collei. "Well, you could help me grow these crops since the temperature's rising soon" "Oh, I'll be glad to do that" said Collei proudly. Xiangling told the others about what Baizhu said to her. "Well, Xiangling, you said you wanted to see what Dendros are like, well the response you've gotten was quite "blooming", if you know what I mean" said Klee teasingly. The embarrassed Pyro just went to her tent and look a long rest.
