Lyrics:

ᾨδή ἥδε ᾠδή ὡς τέττιξ φθινοπωρινός
Οἴδη, οἴδη καὶ μνήμη, μόναι μένουσιν ἐν ξένῃ
Τελευταία ἀοιδός, καθημένη, ἔνθαδε καθημένη, κρούει τὸ ὠχρὸν μέλος, ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ αὐτῆς
ᾨδή ἥδε ᾠδή ὡς τέττιξ φθινοπωρινός
Οἴδη, οἴδη καὶ μνήμη, μόναι μένουσιν ἐν ξένῃ
Τελευταία ἀοιδός, καθημένη, ἔνθαδε καθημένη, κρούει τὸ ὠχρὸν μέλος, ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ αὐτῆς

let's give him a sword piercing

ebon iris

true

brave marten
#

right in the heart

ebon iris
#

we should stab him with several spears

ebon iris
#

its hard to find fics like that

#

like unironically

#

half his ship fanfics are with fucking flins

#

the rest are tholindis or random ass crack pairings

#

yea

#

its hard being a rerindis fan

#

why did the devs have to refer to his cutscene ost as "do tagte ez"

brave marten
ebon iris
#

why did they reference that poem

#

now it just makes me depressed knowing what it means

brave marten
#

he's ugly as hell

#

that doesn't change anything

#

that makes it worse

ebon iris
brave marten
ebon iris
#

✊ 😔

ebon iris
#

i also have my own interpretation in the comments lol

#

"Do Tagte Ez", is the title of this OST that plays during "Reflection of The Moon" cutscene. It's Middle High German meaning "Then dawn came."

Hoyo REALLY made sure heartbreak is layered into every aspect of Rerir's character including all his soundtracks because this one specifically also references a medieval, quite intimate poem by Heinrich von Morungen, where two lovers share the night but dawn arrives and forces them to part 💔😭

Also interesting fact, this is part of a type of love poetry called the Tagelied (dawn song), which the theme basically always is the inevitable separation of lovers at the break of dawn, depicted in very intimate and emotional love poems. There are many such poems but not all have survived 💔 though you can find more if you dig a bit!

brave marten
#

also yeah I noticed the lyrics now

#

in his boss theme

#

I remember them now

ebon iris
#

"then, dawn breaks"

#

more like the cruelty of reality

#

at night, they can be as normal as they can where they can love each other freely

#

but when dawn breaks and the moon is gone they are seperated by the cruelty of reality's dawn

#

not big enough chest

brave marten
ebon iris
#

yea

#

theyre insane for vedrfolnir

#

i love them for that

#

but also i make fun of them because of it

brave marten
#

lemme read the post

ebon iris
#

go ahead! its very nicely written

#

and i have my own thread relating it to Douglas Galbi's blog post in the replies

#

although i will admit the blog post im referring to that has the interpretation of the poem

#

he writes it in a very "liberal" perspective

#

the english translation of the germanic poem i believe is accurate at least tho

brave marten
ebon iris
#

in this case dont think of the dawn as PO

#

its just the "dawn" of reality

#

this is just a setpiece focused more on rerindis relationship and what couldve been based on historical inspiration

#

of what

brave marten
#

does it even exist

ebon iris
#

here

brave marten
#

oh the poem

ebon iris
#

the right is the middle high germanic version

#

left is the english translation

#

theres also a vocal performance of it too actually, you can listen to it

ebon iris
#

10 years????

do you mean in 6.3 when theyre having their little tea and cakes talk

ebon iris
#

ive seen that post

hidden zodiac
#

U need word to word, i can help

#

But the non latin ones

ebon iris
#

for me personally i was just asking more how each line relates to dottore

#

or the moon sisters or HP etc etc

hidden zodiac
#

Yup lol. That surprised me

brave marten
#

what does the first word mean

#

in the title

hidden zodiac
#

Uhh

#

Teaching?

#

Yea

#

Its a teaching of sorts. Instructions/wisdoms

brave marten
#

instructions to quell seven calamities?

hidden zodiac
#

Irl, its related to buddhism and non duality

hidden zodiac
brave marten
#

yeah I know

#

wow

brave marten
#

this

hidden zodiac
#

Prajna = wisdom
Paramita = an act of perfecting (?)
Upadesa = instructions

brave marten
#

hmm

hidden zodiac
brave marten
#

the title and lyrics give hope but

#

we still have to wait

hidden zodiac
#

But man, whoever heard the proper lyrics.... insane

#

So its official??

#

Oh

#

Damn

#

All these guys

#

Are actually just tsunderes

#

Dottore

#

And 1 of the sinner who was helping trav, i forgot

brave marten
#

won't be a matter of time until we learn the real lyrics

brave marten
hidden zodiac
#

Oh ya ya rerir

brave marten
#

ah I meant the correct translations

#

but as far as I can tell it's mostly criticizing PO and how Dottore wants to overcome the moon

#

oh true

I misunderstood the last part

both cases invoke a different feeling so I wouldn't say that

#

Explain

#

You compose something better then

#

Then it's soulless

#

Idk why you're dogging on the composer, he's also behind dottore's boss theme aka Prajnaparamitopadesa to Quell Seven Calamities

#

You make it sound like he has only one fire track and not multiple

glad crypt
#

you wanted happy music in this cutscene?

#

there was

#

also it's a very short cutscene

brave marten

I hope everything you hope for doesn't happen

He looks so pretty in a dress

#

teehee 😁

#

also while ur here

#

@odd thicket

#

do you think sinners can resist erosion

#

because they are transcendent

#

i aint talking about that bum ass

#

oh?

#

what makes u say that

#

so sinners can transcend fate but they cant be resistant to a lower concept (time)?

#

ig tbf we just dont know enough about the other sinners and what limitations they even face

#

besides being bound to teyvat one way or another

#

mental? true

#

eh imo i think theyre bound

#

teyvat is the ground zero for all this shit

#

yea but hes booooooooooooreedddddddddd

#

me when i have to kill my disciple because im bored

#

knowing him he would make unironic alpha male gym maxxing tiktok videos

#

and then get a commentary slop channel video on him bc he crashed out near women

#

rhinedottir and surtalogi got that scientist x lab rat dynamic

#

she would convince him to take peptides tbh

#

NOOOOO SURTALOGI

#

fucking breaks his jaw with a tiny version of his sword so he can get that chad chin

#

if you think about it

#

all sinners are cringe

#

one way or another

brave marten

I don't like it

ebon iris

was gonna say he got that dog in him but rerir already is that

got both the aggressive rabies side and the sad whimpering side

fuck it he can go get bit by a snake and die

in any case this mistranslation is egregious

#

man read the set

#

it's referring to the Fatui

#

no you didn't, this Doctor they talked about didn't even help

#

not like the doctor you keep talking about

#

he just turned a blind eye to the Fatui troop who helped them even though their order were to not help

#

ordered by the Tsaritsa

#

told you

#

he turned a blind eye to their "treason"

#

yep

#

yeah

brave marten

for what

#

I just hope they don't make him uh

#

I hope they don't keep blaming stuff on him or wash him completely

does he

he didn't even get a sticker

AND HE DIDN'T

#

Hoyo needs to STOP with expys

brave marten
#

last ones were in Inazuma

#

oh u said hoyo not genshin

ebon iris
#

do they mean in hsr? lol

#

cause that is expy impact

worldly rain
#

Cacoon was high level merged civilization that has attached itself to imaginary tree and is now trying to find similar higher level entity so that it doesn't feel lonely....
It chose solar system for it's "test"...
The test involves sending civilization level destroyers aka 14 herrscher (if you know the plot of Eva that's it basically)
Cacoon already destroyed planet Venus, Mars and finally was "defeated" In earth by Kiana (after she took it's authority)

Does this sounds similar to abyss? I doubt it C_TaoHehe

glad crypt
worldly rain
#

Sa is dead lol

#

Well I don't know the details much since I didn't exactly play after part 1

#

But I doubt it's related

#

If anything abyss could be related to sea of quanta but even that's far fetched for now

#

Unless genshin connects something at least with wider cosmology I doubt it's clear enough to make conclusion here

#

It could be it's own thing too

#

Like even Hsr the direct parallel sequel doesn't have much to do with cacoon or Sa or anything
Very less chance for genshin

#

The only common thing so far is imaginary tree theory that's it

#

And that's something even genshin could have in fact it's similar stuff already exist with irminsul conceptually speaking

#

Nah cacoon is very different in nature to abyss they're not similar at all

#

Not to mention cacoon didn't go beyond solar system and there kiana already took control of it's authority (well she's in the process or something)

#

Wdym?

#

It's single entity there's no branch here

worldly rain
#

Sa isn't cacoon

#

Sa is also a woman
Also dead now
Vita killed her and took the authority

#

Basically Sa used quantum computing or something to replicate cacoon powers for herself
She started killing bubble worlds to power up
She was killed by vita and her authority was taken by her

#

It's a rough synopsis I don't know details either
But yeah nothing similar or related to abyss from genshin which is cosmic horror entity

#

As for cacoon itself well it's authority is already taken by kiana so again won't have anything to do with genshin

#

In honkai imaginary tree has direct counterpart which is sea of quanta
If imaginary tree creates life sea of quanta destroys it
The sea is out there to destroy the tree
Now that could be the abyss if you wanted to make a leap in connecting genshin and honkai
But that's it I'm afraid as far as connections go right now...
Especially when genshin isn't keen on said lore connection

ebon iris
#

Then who did

#

The abyss itself?

#

Also I cant imagine what ved would wanna be doing with someone like him lmao

lilac coral
#

Who is Sa?

#

The only sa I know is the illegal one 😭

worldly rain
worldly rain
lilac coral
#

Oh okay

#

Thought it was something in genshin I just wasn't getting

worldly rain
#

I don't think Ved should be inserted everytime abyss does something
We already have distinction between them

#

Abyss does it's own thing
Ved does his own

#

It's because Ved uses abyss powers so sometimes like in case of Rerir it was Ved who we heard the voice of...Same goes for Roland
But that doesn't mean everytime it's going to be him especially when Abyss is explicitly mentioned like in case of Mad Monk or Deshret

#

Abyss order is different from Abyss after all
So it goes they have different action and influence

#

I would go so far...
Mad monk had his own dealings with abyss not related to Ved
There's a reason why his story ended in WQ

#

Besides a lot of people including gods have tried to alter fate doesn't mean Ved is behind everyone

#

Roland was explicitly mentioned alongside Ved so yes he's involved but I'm talking about other times here
Not everything is related to him or his plot

#

There's also the fact that Ved couldn't have done anything before getting abyss powers so anything before him isn't his doing either

#

Stuff like mad monk or deshret or anything before cataclysm isn't related to Ved for that matter but abyss itself

#

Which is highly doubtful
He's not going backwards in time like istaroth so he can't possibly be involved

#

On the contrary everything he's involved is from past to present

#

Unlike istaorth who goes from present to past

#

Well as far as influence goes anyway

#

Neither of them were

#

Nope nothing of the sort happened

#

If it did it would've been shown

ebon iris
#

VEDRFOLNIR......

worldly rain
#

Istaroth has been involved 3 times so far
In raiden story quest
In time and space quest
And with zibai
No where else she's involved as far as main quest goes

ebon iris
#

poking him

#

poke poke poke poke

#

Poking them all

worldly rain
#

That's just not true
If they were involved they would be present there
Anything else is just baseless speculation atp
Especially when Ved was present in whole Roland drama and yet they wouldn't show him before? Nonsense...

ebon iris
#

Now now im not gouging them all

#

Im just poking

#

itll just be like

#

Omni man levels of poking

#

Cue the first episode of Invincible

worldly rain
#

Same goes for Istaroth she's there in zibai stuff she's there with space and time
And then she isn't in nod krai? Yeah because she isn't involved simple

#

Plot already ended there is no later C_TaoHehe

ebon iris
#

🤭

#

There should

worldly rain
#

Yes there is not related to moon prison or anything but future stuff

#

Whole columbina stuff ended already there is no Ved or Istaroth involved here

#

Ved was involved with Roland
And probably istaroth will in future arc but everything in past is done

#

Ved was not acting through Reirr...What?
Istaroth mentioning 4 moons in prayer doesn't mean she's involved in the plot
That's like saying fontaine prophecy meant HP was involved in the plot they weren't

#

Istaroth was also mentioned in zibai lore yet she wasn't involved with the plot

#

Rerir reviving was because of dottore not Ved
Wild hunt being the abyss it is used him until they couldn't
Then they found Andrius not Roland...Roland that we saw was abyss only not his real self

#

Current Ved is not in nod krai
The one we saw was from 500 years ago speaking through the past
That's the vision
You're confusing things here

#

The same goes for Rerir
Whatever we saw of Ved was from 500 years ago

#

He's not there in the present

#

Present stuff is dottore and wild hunt only

#

What dain quest? There isn't any in nod krai so far

#

Again nothing is mentioned so far or shown
He's been in the nod krai quest two times both in the past

#

That's not nod krai

#

That's not what I'm talking about of course he's in the present time we met him in the quest already
No we're talking if he's involved in nod krai plot he isn't
Except for roland stuff which also was in the past

#

Neither is istaorth for that matter

#

Maybe in the future yes

#

But so far there isn't any involvement

#

Yes that's the vision doesn't mean he was actually there

ebon iris
#

Ok u keep saying that but we have no confirmation nor denial ved is using rerir

#

Roland def

#

Not rerir tho

worldly rain
#

Proxy here is wild hunt which is abyss not under control of Ved

#

You keep attributing abyss agency to Ved which is where I disagree mostly

#

It's abyss... Why is abyss anywhere... A_CryLaughTao

#

That's just how it works

#

It's like asking why is abyss in natlan.. Or sumeru Or anywhere

ebon iris
#

See ved was tryna use rerir here but thats like the only time

#

Everything else rerir was doing fucking with everyone in NK

#

That was rerirs doing

worldly rain
#

Because it was stopped within natlan itself lol
You think abyss wouldn't go past natlan if it hadn't been stopped?

#

But it didn't we stopped it
If was only if we hadn't stopped it that it would go for mond

#

After destroying nod krai

#

You're not making any sense here

#

You're talking about hypothetical which hasn't come to pass precisely because we stopped it

#

Where does it say it has to be Fontaine before mond?

#

You're just making thing up here lol

#

The same reason boreus came from nod krai to mond instead of Fontaine A_HuTaoShrug

#

Doesn't matter the route remains the same

#

If boreus can come from nod krai to mond so can wild hunt

#

It's not special because other regions are already fighting abyss

#

Just because we stopped abyss calamity in other region doesn't mean it didn't exist

#

Mond is also closest to North so that other reason

#

As I said mond is closest to North that one reason it's the first target
Besides the fact that other areas were already under abyss threat

#

But whatever the reason be it's for abyss to ponder
The point was that it's not because Ved is controlling wild hunt

#

It doesn't matter when the plot already mentions that mond is closest to Northern land and first area of attack in case the northern lands fell

#

Like natlan is told to be closest to border so abyss influence is higher there
But based on map it doesn't look like you can see any border now can we?

#

Border as in teyvat border

#

Natlan was said to be it that's why the front line for abyss invasion

#

In natlan quest where else...

#

I remember that much at least
Something about natlan being the frontier

#

They also explained why abyss concentration was highest there

#

And that if natlan fell that would open the door for other nation

#

Yes

#

After he was sacrified iirc kana created the storm or something

#

Probably forgot though

#

(‍Traveler‍): (Three moons... I wonder... which one was ***Khaenri'ah's Crimson Moon*** related to?)```

Not expecting an answer, I just want to rant that I cannot remember how the Traveler/player learned about the crimson moon prior to arriving in Nod-Krai, assuming he has not experienced any non-prerequisite game content (e.g. reading Perinheri, owning Arlecchino's weapon and reading its lore) required to reach this point in the story.
queen prawn
#

Also character voice over is canon

#

But the timeline for their voice over is stuck in place,unless hoyo add a new voiceline to them

sacred hornet
# queen prawn Arlechinno SQ

Was her SQ a prerequisite for advancing the main storyline though? If not, I think it's a case of bad writing to have the player/traveler mention something they did not necessarily experience.

#

Sorry, how does the traveler manage to draw a connection between "visionary" and "crimson moon dynasty"?

#

Which again is optional... sorry I don't think I'm getting your point gfeelsdumbman

queen prawn
#

It is the same way all event(even the recycle event) are canon to the timeline

#

But most of them not being permanent doesnt mean bad writing

worldly rain
#

Fomo writing more like

ebon iris
#

Roided up on the Abyss, obviously

#

Or if you cant access that just buy some unregulated peptides somewhere and go ham on injections

queen prawn
#

become abyss herald

#

walk instead of flying, and eat abyss for breakfast

river valve
#

Hell nah

#

Two extra arms would be more trouble than benefit

ebon iris
#

Nah yknow whats better than two arms

#

A tail

#

Like a Sui sibling arknights dragon tail

#

Either a thin long one or a thick ass heavy longer one

ebon iris
#

Okay maybe not a xenomorph

#

Sui sibling tails are fluffy and have different colors

#

How would that work i wonder

#

"Cute" brother

#

I am not

river valve
#

How does one acquire this build

river valve
#

Dude who the fuck is eroch do we know

river valve
#

Did we know of this guy before this event

#

Damn from where

#

If its some bs like 2* sword descp istg

#

Thats even more bs

#

Well it is what it is ig

#

Wacky ahh info in a wacky ahh place

#

Ig that's the whimsy of it

brave marten
#

people were theorizing he was a Dottore segment

#

but being manipulated by Dottore is pretty close ig

river valve
#

Damn im a lore failure

#

😔

ebon iris
#

Because varkas known him for a lot longer before becoming grandmaster

#

Unless eroch was some fuckin sleeper agent

brave marten
#

did you read the message right below it

ebon iris
#

no now I just did

#

im blind

#

💔

brave marten
#

brother

#

🥀

ebon iris
#

Idk why people believe he was a dottore segment tho I feel itd be a lot more obvious

#

Eroch was just another Scara in a sense

brave marten
#

nothing was elaborated on him

#

in the webtoon

#

and his face was hidden

#

and he had the same hair color as Dottore

ebon iris
#

I thought his hair was brown

#

Nvm I hallucinated it

#

He doesnt even show his face

brave marten
#

yeah

queen prawn
#

Stream is getting close

#

WQ will be voiced,trust

ebon iris
#

dont give me hope for something that will never happen

queen prawn
#

They will suprise us

#

VA will joke about WQ not being voice

#

Then reveal the new WQ is voiced

lilac coral
#

That'd be phenomenal but we all know it ain't happening if it's a world quest 😭

#

Maybe it'll be an interlude

brave marten
#

there's no interlude

lost quail
#

I need this to be reiterated to me

#

But how did Mavuika know the names of the six heros and their ancient names

#

Without tracking them through their childhood

#

Cuz we know she was dead

#

So she physically couldn’t but her consciousness clearly carried on enough for her to be informed of the ancient names of the heros and their names and who theyd be
But perhaps didn’t know their childhoods or how theyd grow up

Even her anecdote about Chasca was probably told to her via Citlali

#

Like I don’t think she knew them when they were kids via the wayob

I don’t think the wayob told her everything through their childhood

hidden zodiac
#

The song??

hidden zodiac
#

The tweet below also has

#

Nah that is full

#

Just not latin

#

Ya coz vernacular bs

queen prawn
lost quail
lost quail
#

Cuz ppl like to make things weird

And ppl thought shipping her with some of them was weird

#

I had it explained to me that Mavuika only knew who the names would be snd the bearers of those names through the wayob telling her the names and past heros giving the ok to bestow the names.

Mavuika arrived recently

So perhaps everyone had their ancient names, but when Mavuika emerged, xilonen already had hers activated

queen prawn
lost quail
queen prawn
lost quail
#

Yeah

#

So

#

Mavuika only knew the names
The bearers of those names

And the state of Natlan through wayob communication

Everything else she didn’t know

#

She just sort of decided that it was time to pop out 5 or 6 years ago. I use Xilonen as a way to figure oyt time line since I feel like theyd be closest in age if that makes sense

#

So perhaps once Xilonen’s name awoken

That’s when Mavuika emerged. She didn’t now who she was. Just knew she beared the name

#

She merely waited for the ok that one of the names was awakened or at least two

thick oyster
#

Failed my final 10x wish on Varka's sig 😔

#

Thinking about just swallowing my pride and spending money

lilac coral
#

Yee lol

#

Though that artist also adds details and doesn't just color swap iirc

#

But not a ton

thick oyster
#

Yeah I can't get her

thick oyster
#

Yeah I don't have Escoffier either

#

Well I think I still have a couple hours left on my end

#

But yeah I already have a Serpent Spine on him

#

I might get him Mavuika's sig in the future

#

Mhm

#

Or Nicole

#

I want her

#

Linnea is thankfully very boring

#

Yeah she is cool

#

And he has a weapon skin so you don't have to worry about it not fitting

#

Barely even meta anymore
Fraud

#

Tsaritsa will save her

#

Before she gets power crept by Capitano

#

Yeah

#

That's already where they are man

#

Raiden got power crept
By Razor

#

She's still my goat though

#

Every geo buffing character is Itto upscale

#

She's pretty good with the new Hexerei characters too
Albedo and Durin work well with her

#

He has Bineffa

#

Yeah but he's an EM electro guy so it's less shameful

#

Yeah

#

My Sethos is pretty good actually

#

He's good with Hyperbloom

#

At least you can get Cyno cons for free

#

Sumeru Hexerei will save him in 3 years

#

Bro Superconduct is never gonna be it

#

Those are only with hydro reactions
Not pyro or cryo though

#

Hopefully they add cryo x dendro

#

That would be good

lilac coral
ebon iris
#

and in the ost where he gets thrown into the moon gate by columbina, the title of the ost is called irredeemable mercy

#

they really hammering home the no redemption bit

lilac coral
#

Hey, wouldn't you do the same for someone who committed genocide because they were told to? kekw

ebon iris
#

several times actually

#

stupid mop head is gonna have burns now

#

either traveler or columbina

#

meh who knows

#

arguably gotta say dottore fans got it worse

#

Fair enough 🤭

#

well get em out

#

trust

#

hes too beautiful to just be sitting there like a museum exhibit

#

hes a dog he needs enrichment

#

TRUE

#

god yes

#

thats why i love him sm

lilac coral
#

Signora mains were the originals though, never forget how hard they held on 😔

#

They turn him into Sunday v2 where he's not redeemable but he spends the rest of his days trying to balance out the bad he did

#

They used every excuse in the book from her design to her story to the lazzo showing her moth as a means to will her back into existence as another playable character kekw

#

And the other two are the same

#

They're just good villains in one way or another

#

Basically trapped innumerable people in a dream and was about to destroy everything for the sake of everyone combining as one in the name of the harmony iirc

#

I could be misremembering hard though since it's been a hot minute

#

Idk

#

I have no idea

#

No

#

It was something that had been occurring before the team arrived iirc

#

It was like

#

The harmony spoke through him, and wanted all to be as one

#

So he got as many people into the dream as possible and drew them in with his sister

#

Then someone murdered her IRL and she was only able to exist in the dream

#

Something something death in the dream was actually something else I can't remember what something something he needed to take over the dream something something the power of friendship sister saves the day he repents tada he's playable after trying to kill everyone and mash them together into one consciousness

#

This was also like 2 years ago so I don't remember the details 😭

#

But that's the gist of it I guess??

thick oyster
#

Otto is definitely one of the Sinners though lol

#

Maybe even Irmin

thick oyster
#

That we know of

worldly rain
#

He tried to became real God actually lol
Well for the short while before he was defeated

#

Not otto I was talking about Sunday

#

As for Otto, he created entirely new branch in imaginary tree he's different lol

worldly rain
#

found it to be wierdest lore book ngl

#

that's what lore says

#

it wasn't really a book but the scroll they use to paint history so it should be more relevant

#

i mean little witch exist that' not real but stand in for multiple witches identity
same can be true here too for vera

#

well not identity but story

#

yes the character is not real but her adventure revolves around real witche's stories

worldly rain
#

sounds similar to me

#

and that's defenitly metaphor of celestia both the andromeda galaxy empire and planet meotros

#

i think it's trying to set up the beyond teyvat plot
a lot of these character are interstellar beings hoping from one planet to others

#

there tale of princess mina there too it was about multipe worlds

#

like these characters are yet to be revealed except for the witches

#

maybe they're even related to PO's history
clearly he came from somewhere

#

inazuma book it also had honkai reference C_TaoHehe

#

but yeah as i said lot of these lore books that don't make sense are clearly because the relevant plot hasn't happened

#

it's al setup for when we reach celestia arc

#

when we finally expand beyond teyvat

#

yes

#

see how a lot of these lore books have female protaganist?
remember teyvat teaser where dain says to save "her"
wheel of fortune talking about reunion with "her"

#

it's almost as if there's a certain hidden character in all these stories central to the plot

#

whoever she is i know she's the demiurge of the plot

#

will only get revealed when we end out journey

#

yes as in the plot device

#

all these lore centre around some woman yet to be saved
the hints all over

#

here's a crack theory...imagine PO is otto expy and we have to save his kallen A_WheezeTao

#

yes

#

ancestor you could say but not direct one

#

see kaslana were made from og kaslana's gene or dna aka Kevin by Mei

#

i don't know the technicality but basically they're kevin's and mei's descendant produced in lab lol

#

and since kevin is special so are his descendants

#

but that's hi3rd only

worldly rain
#

yeah go ahead it's also wierd lol

#

Kevin with his son

#

one good thing hoyo did was to stop using media outside of game itself to tell it's story
they did this with Hi3rd and early genshin but thankfully that stopped

ebon iris
#

Fuckkkk I just saw veras melancholy talk again

#

Hate that book

#

Hate that i cant understand a single lick of what its talking about or who even wrote it

ebon iris
#

Since canon uses Aether as traveler

#

And sibling as Lumine

#

LMAO

#

Sachi the shounen protag of the story bro

worldly rain
ebon iris
#

Bc if we play as lumine. Our sibling is aether

worldly rain
#

No because it doesn't matter who you play the lore still says "her"

#

If it was related to twins the gender would reflect that

#

Take sumeru for example the golden nara has different pronoun based on the twin you play

#

@odd thicket "Master Roland, who seeks the dark 'Tower,'
Has come before it."

Tower is indeed pathway to abyss

#

Lunar arcanun tower

#

I don't see it

#

No this is the one where Roland qoute is from

#

"What a coincidence. The radiation trapped in the planet's crust indicated that the supernova had erupted the very year the twins were born.
Naturally, the two events had nothing to do with each other. "

This is from traveler's skin

#

"I am the void at the moment of creation, I am the newborn spark when all things end."
"My traveling pack is empty, I have only this pure-white companion by my side."
"I will mock all desire, glory, and reason, I will tread the seven-fold steps."

"Void at the moment of creation"...coincidence?

#

Newborn spark...

#

I don't know that's the tower which mention Roland can't be decarabian

lilac coral
#

why did it take me this long to realize that columbina is the first playable character who's actually blind 😭

#

after years ago people hoped for a character at some point who'd be disabled like the blind girl in mondstadt

#

and after people would argue if yoimiya was the first disabled character because she had a knee guard that people thought was a prosthetic A_WheezeTao

#

ye

#

no, no need to think about it

#

she's a parapalegic but with working limbs

#

but it took this long in general to just get characters who are disabled in some fashion, even with prosthesis A_WheezeTao

#

and columbina being the first without having some device or anything that makes up for it other than "feeling kuuvakhi" which i still don't know what that'd be like if you were to translate it to someone without that ability

#

like is it similar to infrared sensing in snakes?

#

and then jahoda is the first one who's disabled and also isn't some deity-level creature kekw

#

i thought she just couldn't, and because she had no use for her eyes she just didn't open them?

#

that's why she doesn't really care for things like taking off/the kuuhenki taking her veil

#

oh that's what you meant

#

i thought you meant she "blinds" herself by just keeping her eyes shut lol

#

i know she does 😭

#

yeah, all the representation is going to zzz A_WheezeTao
from personalities to disabilities to races to FURRIES

#

zzz has it all A_HuLurk

worldly rain
#

That's the hanged man

#

Yes but the Roland qoute is from the other tower card

#

I don't think so other lunar card don't have unrelated text

lilac coral
#

you get a tan catgirl and a brown bear, take it or leave it A_WheezeTao

#

also just did another selenic chronicle and this one where columbina brings us to her moon home and now is available at all times(?) in the cave and just... sings along with her song A_GaspTao

#

it's so nice

#

to hear her hum the melody

#

THERE'S A WHOLE DIALOGUE OPTION FOR THE MASK?

#

no

#

i took a break from genshin for a bit after getting varka

#

there's so much variety, they need to cycle through everything first

#

rn it's essentially a cancer child being given a second chance but with massive scarring from the procedures, yeah?

worldly rain
#

Devil pic has dragon caged in a flask surrounded by abyss hand
And the text indeed talks about abyss and false God

#

Yeah but it's not unrelated

#

Pic and text don't mismatch

lilac coral
#

ah

#

so like all their franchises?

#

i wonder if we will ever get a woman who is dressed for the cold in genshin

#

but yeah, i have 5 weeks left

river sigil
#

I wonder who the captain of the 5th company is, kinda weird that Lohen is specifically the vice captain

lilac coral
#

also i want to mention the leak about ||the new area of space coming with dornman port|| and how, now that i look at it at a different angle, a world quest like that would just be ||enkanomiya v2|| and it has me very excited even if it isn't voiced because that shit was amazing when it first came out

#

instead of it being something like the world quests we've gotten in more recent years and would make more sense as to how those two ||new areas|| connect because i cannot think of any other way where they would 😭

worldly rain
lilac coral
#

true

#

we got furina, chevy, navia, and chlorine with that one

thick oyster
lilac coral
#

so here's to hoping we will just get someone in a winter coat at some point in snezhnaya A_WheezeTao

#

i fucking forgot about that

thick oyster
#

Yeah

#

Malenia fashion sense

#

Cause all her important bits rotted off

worldly rain
thick oyster
#

Yeah

#

Furina too

#

Lauma at least makes sense to have skimpy clothes C_TaoHehe
Going off her mythology

worldly rain
thick oyster
#

Could be worse

#

Could be Varesa

thick oyster
#

Idk

#

Who?

#

Yeah her

#

Will probably be hydro

ebon iris
#

i noticed that on the wiki, the word Devil is hyperlinked to the Five Sinners (for the Devil Card)

#

but tbh idk if its necessarily talking about them

#

more like how the HP and the Abyss are forever in a cycle of creation and destruction between each other because of their nature

#

"Was there ever a true age of darkness?
Where ignorance and shadow were mistaken for divine,
And the "Devil" was hailed as creator."

#

the first two lines at least remind me of how the sinners ended up taking abyssal power leading to khaenriahs fall

#

but the "Devil" hailed as creator" line is a little weird since theyre not really creators in a sense

#

unless we wanna count the things theyve directly or indirectly created bc of their actions

#

like Rhine with her monsters, Rerir with the Wild hunt, etc etc

#

ngl looking at the card itself

#

its got more Rhine motifs to it

#

dragon in a bottle aka Durin, the rifthounds in the background as people around them die

#

tho idk if its specifically a Rhinedottir related arcanum card since she already has one with Sebas in the High Priestess card

#

i feel the design of the card says otherwise

#

its so Abyss related

#

not sinners

#

just abyss in general

#

specifically the cataclysm in khaenriah

#

false history huh

#

for PO

ebon iris
#

oh? i havent heard about that

#

what else is fabricated

#

oh shit

#

thats fair

#

i think they were/are capable of a lot of things

#

but to fabricate history would destroy the truths and logic of this world that we know

#

at least, from our understanding of it

#

what about it?

#

in relation to HP i mean

#

i always theorized the spiral abyss was made by the crimson moon dynasty people

queen prawn
#

So biggest plot twist is Nibelung was created by themE_OMEGARAZOR

thick oyster
#

It isn't

#

It makes 0 sense

thick oyster
ebon iris
#

so whats the truth

thick oyster
#

Also Nibelung was born at the same time as Teyvat

#

He is it's manifestation like what Columbina is to the Frostmoon

thick oyster
ebon iris
#

i mean i was gonna say nibelung definitely was born from teyvat at least

#

idk about suns turning themselves intoa new form after a literal star explosion tho i dont think thats possible

#

what was it that red moons are the ones closest to exploding

#

not mooons

thick oyster
ebon iris
#

suns

thick oyster
ebon iris
#

i didnt know they could become smaller stars tho

thick oyster
#

Small ones don't

ebon iris
#

interesting

queen prawn
ebon iris
#

Tho I guess it technically isnt a red sun yet

#

In a billion or so years yea I do expect our sun to explode tho

queen prawn
#

Well,science said our sun is expanding in size,in a billion year so it will get there

river valve
#

He's just cheating out erosion

worldly rain
#

It wasn't for that lol
It was for fighting against abyss durin that he had to go to sleep to recover from corruption

worldly rain
#

Yeah I guess we already see him with dvalin so he was already woken up by the time

worldly rain
#

I don't remember actually

thick oyster
#

When he first summoned Dvalin with the lyre I think

#

Jean was there too

ebon iris
#

oomf was theorizing with me that the sage mentioned here was Hroptatyr

#

tho we got nothing else to base it off of

#

bro is blasphemy against reason

#

until proven otherwise

#

he legit could do anything

river valve
#

He's also the only one with almost no screentime

#

Mysterious af

ebon iris
#

nor any other knowledge of where he could be after gaining power

#

that could just be anything

#

anything logical and reasonable in teyvat

#

he could flip on its head

#

that too

#

pretty much

#

"teyvat has its own laws"
hroptatyr:

#

perhaps

#

still pretty busted tho

#

its just scarier to think that we have not heard of or seen his influence anywhere on teyvat after the cataclysm

#

rhine, rerir and ved are obvious

#

surtalogi got relegated to skirks sq with her skofnungr but at least we finally know a bit more about him

#

where the fuck is hroptatyr?

#

so either the consequences of his actions have yet to be seen, or theyre already right in front of us and we just dont know it yet

#

him and ved are scary

#

LMAOOOOOO

#

as funny as that would be

#

like after all the sinners obtained abyssal power, hes the first to keel over and like

#

die

#

everyone else left

#

but no as funny as that is i find it hard to imagine

#

that would truly be a twist of the century tho

#

he was already dead

#

maybe hes schrodingers cat

#

both alive and dead

river valve
#

Nah he's not dead cmon

#

Envy at its finest

ebon iris
#

i fucking love this gif

#

she just hates his guts so much and hes like :)

#

i dont even think its cause shes envious, eftrvit/pierro would be

#

she just doesnt like how slimy and terrible of a person he is

#

despite how charistmatic he may sound

river valve
#

Well ig thats true why would she be envious she's a fucking shade

#

I think he's just off radar

ebon iris
#
  1. he and ved are secretly working together but ved is the face of the operation and hes in the back
#

or 8. hes in another fucking dimension

#

YES EXACTLY

#

ive posited the idea a couple times

#

it could be a lot of things, and it helps that ved is very

#

either omniscient

#

or omnipotent i forgot the definiitions

river valve
#

Alice's last speech about abyss is also interesting

ebon iris
#

not necessarily like that, more like hes literally ascended to a different plane of existence

#

like the way we interpret him is much harder to understand

#

he after all breaks reason

river valve
#

Maybe hrop is literally an unchosen fate came to being

ebon iris
#

yea eat a bunch of umbilical cords

#

and kill some babies

river valve
#

Damn they already tried that on earth

ebon iris
#

😔
