If someone ask me what constellation Elaine has then I am going to tell you guys for sate your curiousity here.
Her Constellation is [Scutum Gemini]
Yeah... I know its very uncreative for me, but come on! Creating a constellation with a meaning behind is hard, just looking at Mihoyo Company how they are doing made me respect them!
Also its not just Elaine's Constellation. Galahad is also with her, hence the part Gemini even though they aren't twins per see and the constellation sort resembles of a yin-yang with the cross shield on the middle.
Food for thoughts... Every Constellation in Genshin Impact has each respective elements such as Fire, Ice, Water ect.
However her/their constellation is very much unique because it has more stars than anyone else and has no elements like the Traveler from the beginning, also its big as the original Gemini Constellation from our solar system.
Well that's it for now and let's begin her childhood then romance later at the timeline were the traveler woke up from their slumber.
Also Grammar suggestion is always welcomed!

From the first glance of Mondstadt, the city was more lively than Camelot from Galahad's memory. Elaine wasn't that awed even it was a beautiful city as she liked the castle of Camelot more which Galahad was flustered by this fact.
'It's sure is strange that I prefered Camelot even though I wasn't been there and Mondstadt doesn't feel 'safe' to me or so my instinct told me.'
The Demi-Servant thought with a dreamy look on her face while her adoptive family were more farther from her since she prefered to walk with her shield which she was going to use it for this competition, thankfully they didn't add in their rule book because as long their respective weapons were dull and no visions are allowed.
'I guess, Everyone will be surprised that you are going to using that shield.' Smiled Galahad amused which Elaine just hummed a tune as she walked her way to the register place for registered herself for the competition, then suddenly someone bumped her from behind but she remained to stand still thanks to her still.
The Demi-Servant glanced at the person briefly who bumped her and it was a girl with blue hair and sharp purple-yellow eyes who was also quietly starred at her then Elaine looked away from her as she didn't know what to do since only Adelinde was the only woman who she can talk to.
'Whooaah... this is kinda awkward.'
Elaine blushed herself with that thought as she quickly minded her own business as she went to the person who just starred at her weirdly as if he saw a ghost.
"Excuse me? Is this the place that I can register for the competition?" She awkwardly asked this person who was apparently wore a adventurer uniform that she wanted to aim for.
Beginners were first adventurers to-hire and veterans adventurers are freely to roam in whole Teyvat just for prevent to raise death rates, that job isn't easier for visionless and it was confirmed that vision users have little more easier. However from both Elaine's and Galahad's perspective, humans are still humans that they could still get killed in either way.
"Mmm...Alright then. Please fill this formula for me, so I can give to the higher ups." The man gave her the documents and a Pen which she quickly said thanks then it was the another girl turn.
As she look over the paper and filled her name and her age except her real birthday because she can't confirmed exactly when she was born, no thanks for the Fuyuki Fire because its also importent that she only added the date of her arrival slash anniversary of that hellish day which its sucks for her, while Galahad glanced oddly about this man who kept staring at her.
'That man keep staring at you, Elaine. What are we going to do?'
Which Elaine glanced over the pony tailed styled pink haired man with green eyes then she hummed quietly.
'Nothing. I'm already finished the register document anyways, so we can head to the colosseum.'
With that she head over to the man who never left his eyes on her and placed the application form to the table.
"I'm finished with the paper and can I ask where this colosseum would be, Mister?"
The man snapped out from his daze then chuckled nervously as he took the paper, "Ahaha... Please excuse me. Well, the colosseum is in that way and you can't missed because its very huge. Also there is still time for you since you are the last." As he pointed the direction, the Demi-Servant can see it which she bowed him.
"Thank you very much, mister!"
"Ah. It's nothing to thank for-" He looked up at the fill and slightly raised his eyebrow as he quickly eyed at her birthday strangely then the man just smiled at her, "Miss Ragnvindr."
The blue haired girl before her wided her eyes at Elaine which she didn't actually care about the stare and gave him a bright smile.
"Just call me Elaine, Mister!" Told the Demi-Servant at him who paused little while the other girl just huffed and headed to the direction that the man pointed at.
"Say... Is this alright for you If I ask you some question?" The man asked her which Elaine was thoughtful about that then she look up to the time and nodded.
"Sure, I don't really mind because I still have time, but can you tell me atleast your name, Mister?"
Ah.
That man realized he didn't told his name as he put his hand at his neck.
'Way to go with the first impression.' He thought.
"Sorry, let me introduced myself then. I'm just a simple doctor, Romani Archaman. Or you can call me Dr. Roman if it easier to pronounce for you." Introduced Romani which Elaine felt a sudden deja vu that they met once before even though she met him for the first time especially Galahad since that bugged him for awhile as he took a glance on that fluffy long haired man.
"Is that so? Then Dr. Roman, you can call Elaine since my family name is also very difficult to pronounce." Told the demi-servant with a smile, "So... What kind of question do you want me to answer?" She asked straightforward which Romani startled a bit as he saw the glint on her eyes and coughed.
"Then let me this get straight being a physician comes first. Do you have any symptoms such as circulatory problems, headaches, difficulty by breathing, fainting time to time, nosebleeding or your heart is beating too fast than usual?" He asked in serious manner which Elaine took a step away of this sudden question with widen eyes that Romani noticed her anxiety, "You don't have to answer this if you are not comfortable with this." The pink haired man reassured her.
'Elly... We should trust that man for a second even though his intention to you is unknown.' Said Galahad in her mind which Elaine nervously looked up to Romani and answered.
"...A little bit all of it actually, since I arrived here in Mondstadt but then I got little bit better as the time passed by."
The physician put his fingers on his chin and hummed thoughtful, "I see... Alright let's move on to the next question. Not anything rude but... You aren't blood related to the Ragnvindr like that other foreign child aren't you? I'm curious where you are came from before you got adopted to that wellknown clan and don't worry, I am actually also a foreigner like you so I won't judge you."
"Sorry. I can't give you this information." She told him bluntly. Romani remained silent for awhile and sighed.
"Alright... That's fine. Then for the last question. " Romani paused a bit and looked at her with an unreadable expression then he shaked his head, "No... I think we saved that for later."
Elaine looked at him questionable which Romani chuckled and patted her head.
"Why don't go to the stadium? I bet your family is still waiting for you arrival." He said with a outgoing manner which she took his offer and waved at him as the demi-servant headed to the coloseum.
As she dissapeared among the crowds, Romani let down his hand and sighed while behind him a shadow person with a devious mind which the pink haired man was obivious who it was.
"Alice. If you want to scare me, then that day will never ever to come." Romani said and he turned aroung to see the elemental being just playfully pouted at him.
"Oh. That's really too bad~. I did really think I get you like this today Ro-ma-ni ❤!" Alice flirted with him which he stared at her in deadpanned and wondered why he befriend this insane woman.
Oh, right. She was the one who found him somewhere at the middle of nowhere and thank god that her husband is literary a nice man with spinless guts who just happen to marry that crazy woman.
"Well, aren't you the one who shoved me in this job that was supposed to be yours?" The pink haired human asked dryly at her which her red eyes wandered out of his eye contact, "First of all. I should actually be in the infirmary if the children supposed to be hurt themselves and not on that job."
Alice clapped her hands together and sticked her tongue out.
"Hehe~ I didn't really have a choice for that because I have a serious discussion about my husband and you don't have to be so upset." Then the Elemental Being eyed at him sharply, "Also what are you planning of that adorable child? I never seen you to be so serious before except for critical condition from our members and the citizen of Mondstadt."
Romani looked away from her and sighed. "I don't know actually what to do when I first saw that child. She looked exactly like someone I know before I arrived here in Teyvat." His eyes were filled with melancholy and clenched his fist.
The elf was silent and comforted him as she patted gently his shoulder.
"But one thing for sure, Elaine has certainly same condition like someone I know. She is a Demi-Servant." Romani said without a need of clairvoyance because she carried the same shield that Mash also carried which means the gray haired girl fused with Galahad, the holy knight of the round table of the arthurian legends .
"What are you going to do Romani?" Alice asked in curiousity and wondered if he was planning to support that girl.
Romani glanced at her and said, "It's better when you see from your own eyes in the future and you will see what I am going to do."
The Elemental being was dumbstrucked then she bursted herself into a laughter.
"Bwahahaha! You really are a amusing man who hides in cowardly act and actually strike when you actually needed to!" Which Romani ignored her and decided to walk to the same direction were Elaine walked.
'What mark will you leave behind in that world?' Romani wondered, 'And also how are being alive being as a Demi-Servant who doesn't have a Master?' Then he widen his eyes in realization.
"Can it be..."
-
Diluc puffed his cheeks in impatient and Kaeya was really worried about their adoptive sister got lost, because its her first time that she went off alone by herself and the common monster known as Hilichurls out there were increased since 500 years of that cataclysm while Crepus was also very worried if something happen to his precious daughter but he certainly believed that Elaine will arrived just in time as he hoped.
The woman next to him with her child who is the same age as his children also participate looked at him in deadpanned, "For a easygoing man like you Crepus for letting a child fend-off by herself then later regret this because you finally realized that you should at least keep an eye from your daughter." She said and huffed which the red haired old man glared at her in annoyance.
"You're one to talk, Frederica. I firmly believed that Elaine will coming in any moment here before the ceremony begins." Crepus provoked her a little that Frederica eyed at him and was ready to slash her sword at this defendless man while the children watched the spectacle in sweatdropped.
"Father? What are doing?" A soft voice rang out which both adults and children moved their heads as they saw a gray haired girl with azure eyes that stared at them in curiousity, then she eyed the Gunnhildr Clan in hostile which make Frederica and her Daughter uncomfortable under her intense gaze that shown grudge over them which they didn't why.
Meanwhile. Crepus turned his stoic face into blissfulness as he hugged his daughter tightly while Diluc and Kaeya eyed their sister in sympathy which Elaine waved at them that she is going to be fine since her endurance was finally raised C from her parameters. It's a highest accomplishment for a modern child like her and she can endure everything from here path but not everything because she fully knows her own limit that the Demi-Servant wanted to surpass it.
Then suddenly her adoptive father lifted her tiny body while her cross-shaped shield laid on the ground and spinned her around as punishment because it makes her and Galahad sick.
"Elaine! Do you have any thoughts on how much I worried that you decided to travel alone to Mondstadt? Even though I agree that first because I put my trust on you that you make it on time without injuries or something else what would happen to you!" Crepus scolded her which Elaine looked away at him which his gaze soften then his eyes fixated of that cross-shaped shield that his daughter carried thoughtfully and recalled himself that his little girl has alot of secret that she didn't wanted to tell anyone even him just like Kaeya who also has a difficult past that Crepus didn't ask as he respected their personal space.
"I'm so sorry that I went off on my own, but it was kind-off a trial for myself how capable I am on the wilderness and I'm also terribly sorry that I am late. I was held off by someone who want something about me." Said the Demi-Servant with puppy eyes which Crepus eyes soften while Frederica's daughter was prepared for the ceremony, so was Elaine's brothers then the adult man put Elaine down and patted her head.
"As long you understand that, you don't have to shoulder a heavy burden on you own since you're still a child. Elaine, I'm always there for you as your father even that who dwell inside you." He said as also referred the heroic spirit within his daughter and wasn't surprised that her eyes changed into sand gold as Galahad took her body for moment.
"So you knew." The holy grail knight spoked bluntly which Crepus nodded while his eyes are closed.
"Of course. I obversed every step you and her have made ever since I found Elaine middle of the road unconscious due that fire incident that she told me and I made two to two together that you guys came from the outside of this world." He told them which Galahad clicked his tongue a little.
"What are going to do with us since you discovered my existence?" Galahad asked in hostile. No matter how much his vessel/sister loved that man as her father, he wanted to test him as a decent human being unlike his biological father, Lancelot. Which Galahad refuses to call him due the fact that he slept with a married woman even it was love, this was a disgrace for the most loyal knight of the round table and the married woman was king Arthur's wife for God's sake, he also don't want their origin leaking out to the evil of this world.
"Nothing much, but I must thanking you that you protecting my daughter's life and I wanted just meet you even though you are with us for a long time." Crepus waved his hand a little as he showed that he didn't attend to harm his daughter for Archon's sake.
Galahad stared at him deeply as if he can see his ugly self and looked thoughtful as he communicated with Elaine.
'Let's give him our trust, Galahad. Father has done so much about us and you can sense that he wouldn't harm or betray us.' Said Elaine which the grail knight sighed in defeat because it was really true what she said.
"What's done is done. I hope you wouldn't mind that I don't want to integrate that much, Fa- Mr.Crepus I mean."
Elaine's cheeks turned to pink which Crepus chuckled. "No need to be so formal around me. Before you're going, can you tell me about your name?" Asked the older red haired man and they are silently thankfull that the crowds were focused on the first match.
"My name is Galahad." The holy knight of the round table only told his name because his accomplishments and his status as a heroic spirit means nothing in that world.
"Galahad..." Crepus repeated that person's name and smiled, "It sounds like a strong name and I like that ring to it.
Galahad remained silent and let Elaine control her body as they switched back again.
Her royal blue eyes gleamed in relived and hugged at him, "Thank you so much Papa." Then Elaine let him go and her adoptive father gave her a thin smile.
"Now that's settled. You should go were Diluc and Kaeya are waiting to their opponents and make sure to give all your best, Elaine." He said which the Demi-Servant nodded and hold her shield as she went down while Crepus waved at her warmly.
As she vanished to the crowd, he let out a sigh and looked up to the sky.
"I wonder what kind of fate coming up for her."
"That's up for her to decide which path she is going to take even it would slowly crumble away." Said the pink haired man next to him which Crepus got startled and he got a comical as the red haired man starred nervously which the man besides him laughed.
"Sorry, sorry. I must apologize that I startled you and I didn't mean it though," Apologiezed the green eyed man and raised his hand at him. "My name is Romani Archaman. You can also call me Roman if you like Mister Crepus Ragvindr."
Crepus eyed at this strange man a little without showing his emotion as he took Romani's hand and shake him firmly. "You can call me Crepus aswell, Roman. What kind of business do you want from me? Money" Asked the red haired man in suspicious since that mysterious man must overheard his conversation with his cute daughter which he regret it because suspicious people like the Fatui may have overheard them, if Romani was so sneaky enough to hid himself however from his suddenly surprise that strange man just smiled sympathetic and shake his head.
"No. What you are thinking isn't my true intention. I would like to talk with you in privat because this place isn't very ideal to start a conversation as you can see. I know that I am very suspicious to you which I cannot blame it because we didn't know each other that long." Then the pink haired man turned serious, "Is you choice if you want to listen what I am going to say because it has to do with your daughter which I met her recently at the registration station. Her life is at stake!"
Crepus was completely silent as he was thinking what Romani just said to him. To be honest, he was aware that Elaine's life got shorten when she was arrived here in Teyvat and the red haired old man was the only one who knew that she was an outlander from the first sight, then suddenly Crepus looked at him in realization. Perhaps he should trust this man because he got this theory that Romani Archaman may came from her world as he said that he knew Elaine's condition with just looking at her and Crepus remembers now the rumors about this man as it said that he came from a far place, away from Teyvat as the gossips from the apprentice maids from his manor.
They said that a strange man with foreign white clothes came to Mondstadt as he was carring a unconscious adventurer with an infant on its arm from 4 years ago which roughly the same time as Crepus found Elaine and is now a physician who opens a small clinic with a help of a certain chaotic witch.
The single father left out a sigh then looked to Romani with fire on his eyes.
"Very well. Then let's make an appoinment."
Crepus said as he loved his children very much that he wanted them to live a life that they dreamed to make it reality even it was foolish of this cruel world, Crepus is always a foolish father for them.

You guys were very taken aback as I wrote Romani Archaman here on this chapter and yeah he is alive in that world since he erased himself from the throne of heroes which he got stranded in teyvat for unknown circumstances... I better let this asides because very complicated as it is.
What else?
I got nothing. My head is pretty much blank and... I better go to sleep right now.
See you on the next Chapter! Leave a comment If you wanted too.
