A PLACE REMEMBERED. A JOURNEY YET TO BEGIN.

RETURNTO LIYUE

PROJECT 202Xby 3nch4nted.exe

Somewhere between a memory and a place we haven’t been.

SCROLL TO WANDERTHE MOUNTAINS WILL MAKE WAY

BENEATH THE MOUNTAINS · ARCHIVE 001

A dream,
taking root.

A long-term photography project exploring the landscapes that inspired Liyue through cosplay, travel and environmental portraiture.

One day, I want to travel through China with my boyfriend. To find the places behind the world we love. And to photograph Xiao as if he had returned home.

A journey. A photographic story. A love letter to Liyue.
One of the most ambitious things I have ever dreamed of making.

PATH: /CHINA/LIYUE/RETURN

The dream goes deeper.
The path turns east.

01 / THE DREAM

Some places
exist first
as fiction.

And then you discover
they were real all along.

A mountain in a game becomes a place on a map.
A place on a map becomes a reason to go.

02 / THE PHOTOGRAPHY

Not just in the landscape.
Part of its world.

I don’t want to simply place a cosplay in front of a mountain.
I want the character to feel like they belong there.

TOUCH A WORD. CHANGE THE ATMOSPHERE.

Light that moves.
A world that breathes.

A VISUAL STUDY · PHOTOGRAPHY TO COME

Enchanted by name. By instinct, too.Magic from the worlds I grew up in. .exe from the worlds I build.

03 / THE ONE WHO RETURNS

THE VIGILANT YAKSHA

XIAO

Returning to the landscapes
that feel like home.

THE PLANNED CHARACTER

Canonical cosplay.
Alternative interpretations.
Environmental portraiture.
Stories shaped by the location.

CHARACTER STUDY / 001
CONCEPT, NOT A COMPLETED SHOOT

04 / THE REAL WORLD BEHIND THE DREAM

A way through.

China, imagined in six encounters.
A field map, not a fixed itinerary.

FIELD NOTE 001

Zhangjiajie / Wulingyuan — towering sandstone pillars. The closest thing to stepping into Jueyun Karst.
