Paimon be jealous, because you've shown what a wonderful "local" tour guide you can be. This was an awesome and calming experience that helps restore my memories of the lore in a creative and well-connected way.
Dadaupa gorge was probably the most surprising addition for me also, should we be concerned that 2 of the most prominent features of mondstad (dadaupa gorge and musk reef ) share connections to the abyss
@@donnamiller3463 Oh, oh you mean the portal? That one leads you to Musk Reef if you can’t ice bridge it. There’s also one in Inazuma above the jingren island that leads you to the perpetual mech if you got ayaka but didnt finish the sacred sakura quest. And theres one in enkanomiya that leads to one of the too far away islands and another in sumeru that leads to the mushroom chicken
I really enjoyed this video format! I didn't know those details about the Hilichurl tribes in Dadaupa Gorge... The names and the throne detail seem really interesting 🤔
People don’t seem to connect that Dadaupa Gorge, meaning “Big Mountain”, is probably where Pilos Peak stood. Being one of the tallest mountains, it may have been tall enough to touch the Firmament and why there was an entrance to the Spiral Abyss there. Many speculate Teyvat is actually upside down (as reinforced by the divine tree in the northern desert of Sumeru). When Scaramouche climbed Pilos Peak in Leonard’s dream, he discovers that the sky (Firmament) is fake. The Dragonspine Lore mentions a civilization on the nearby mountain is connected to a kingdom with no god. The few survivors of the Dragonspine Kingdom planned to join the nearby Kingdom. So Pilos Peak, Musk Reef/Spiral Abyss, Khaenri’ah, Dadaupa Gorge, Eclipse Tribe, Golden Apple Archipelago are all connected as one unit…
Good one, waiting for the next part in the series. But I think you don't have to limit it to just seven. Especially in Liyue with dozens of interesting places.
Really feels like I am one of the regular tourist and you just guiding us through the most important places, before we eventually go buy lots of souvenirs lol, totally loved it, subscribed!
Very impressive video, it's both informative and relaxing at the same time, it's like watching a high quality nature documentary video recorded with love and passion.
You have one of the most interesting videos concerning GI. I love this video I cant wait for the others. You really deserve more subscribers. Anyway keep up the good work
A fan of Genshin who liked the Legend of Zelda first??? I thought I was the only one, holy cow. Great video by the way- I'm super excited to see the Dornman Port release and your video on it. Though I could be a bit biased because I'm hoping the Dandelion Sea will release alongside it so I can get a Sucrose hangout or story quest. I love her so much and the game has been neglecting her :(
This was absolutely amazing to watch with dinner.. Ty for the hardwork.. Looking forward to see more of this .. Hopefully a series including liyue inazuma etc etc
Oh my god I never noticed that about the hillichurl camps there because it happened so much earlier in the story before learning more about the lore 0_0
I'm still wondering why treasure compads doesn't work in dragonspine. It should still be considered Monstad just like how: - Chasm is still part of Liyue - Enkanomiya is part of Inazuma - Dessert is part of Sumeru Don't tell me there will be underground place in Monstad...
OH. Lisa's "meager" title of Librarian feels a lot weightier with a context of "the aristocracy kept knowledge to themselves & burned secrets of Mondstadt's history in doing so". Lisa is thus a [public] Librarian in the truest sense of the word: someone who preserves and safekeeps what remains of Mondstadt's records, someone who makes access to books & booklearning free to ALL people in Mondsdadt (to the point where Lisa is still providing reading lessons to Collei, who has since returned to Sumeru)... Lisa's simple title thusly indicates that further words are unecessary in proofing the value of her role. incidentally, i wonder at whether the Thousand Winds Temple was ever intended for worship of Barbatos at all - Istaroth's simultaneous historical presence across every region of Teyvat is evident in ruins & stories but not in the living memory of humans. it seems plausible, to me, that respects paid to Barbatos were a belated facet of the Temple's history. thinking sideways, it's possible that "Barbatos" is/was to Istatoth as "Nahida" is/was to [redacted] or Irminsul. this video was delightful theory fodder & tempts me to revisit those Hilichurl Tribes with my Kamera readied...
I always felt that as the creator of the knights of favonius the reason vanessa took on the form of a falcon was because the falcon of the west was the entirety of the knights of favonius who actively watch over and defend mondstadt and she was the founder and thats why all the knights have falcon wings and symbols on their outfits and weapons
I tried to include locations that were more lore heavy. While I agree it is a beautiful building and I did consider adding it at one point, the other locations fit what I wanted better.
@@SiliconOneFour Why didn't you call it something along the lines of most lore heavy? The Seven Wonders of the World normally/traditionally refer to wondrous man-made achievements. And if you had to pick seven of those in Mondstadt, the Cathedral would likely even be the very first one to pick.
@@mimamo The Seven Wonders have aren’t exclusive to man-made structures, natural features have been included in the lists for a long time. I chose to include both to get the beauty of the entire world of Genshin, rather than just what the people built.
I can't wait to see liyue but my question is are you doing confirmed lore or speculated. Because Cuijue slope *might have 2 lore bits. One one hand you can read it's "the nine pillars of peace" but then based on lore and how powerful beings leave lasting effects, wouldn't it also be the place Guizhong died?
Nameless bard died without seeing the clear blue skies he fought for. So his grave is in the old Mond. The tree in Windrise is where Venessa ascended in Celestia. The tree grew there after her ascension.
So you’re telling me that people built a whole-ass statue, tore it down, and then rebuilt it for a god who, let’s face it, didn’t do a good job protecting his people. But for the god place that had an annual ceremony where the god would visit them NEVER BUILT A STATUE?!
I disagree, Venti literally saved the people from Decarabian and being trapped in his city, then in the manga, once again saved them from the oppression of the Lawrence Clan. And as for Morax, well, the Raiden Shogun doesn't have a statue either, and she's ruled directly this entire time. It could just be a cultural thing.
@@SiliconOneFour Isn’t there a Raiden statue outside of Tenshukaku? I will say though, that Mondstadt does have a lot of super religious people. I guess my perception comes mostly from the Archon Quest’s themes since Mondstadt’s was more about the abyss and Dvalin as opposed to Barbados’ godhood or impact on the people, unlike in Liyue & Inazuma.
@@jacquelynthompson5346 The statue outside of Tenshukaku is actually not of Raiden, and although it’s identity is unknown, it is likely Istaroth, the God of Time. And yeah that’s understandable, but I just think it boils down to culture, and how the different nations celebrate their gods.
Alice just blew up one of the most ancient places of Mondstadt 🗿
Like mother, like daughter.....
One blew up stuff for navigation and utility
Other just for fun🗿
They both did it for fun
@@siddhantroy8969 waah 🤣
Out of all the fourth mains regions, Mondstadt lore is my favourite
I agree!
yeah, it's my favorite too, imo Mondstadt feels like home while all the other regions just feel like vacation spots
Feel like I'm watching a nature documentary, very interesting type of content
Paimon be jealous, because you've shown what a wonderful "local" tour guide you can be. This was an awesome and calming experience that helps restore my memories of the lore in a creative and well-connected way.
Love how you use zhongli as the one explaining the areas. Very fitting lol
Dadaupa gorge was probably the most surprising addition for me

I see them, too. If you look hard enough, there is a dark purple door that looks like a domain door.
@@donnamiller3463 WHERE
@dusksunsetio6042 It appears somewhere in the sky. Haven't been there in a while, but it is always there coming across that area.
@@donnamiller3463 Oh, oh you mean the portal? That one leads you to Musk Reef if you can’t ice bridge it.

I remembers paimon saying "cultivated by time" along with venti unintentionally. Is she really istaroth herself.
I really enjoyed this video format! I didn't know those details about the Hilichurl tribes in Dadaupa Gorge... The names and the throne detail seem really interesting 🤔
I really enjoy Lore content. you deserve more subs! This vids are so well made/written.

your voice is so smoothing and calming! the narration is so cohesive and charming
Amazing video as usual! Mondstadt is indeed a place filled with mistery. I can’t wait for hoyoverse to reveal more about its lore.

Trully an underated Genshin lore youtuber
I'm still wondering why treasure compads doesn't work in dragonspine.
It should still be considered Monstad just like how:
- Chasm is still part of Liyue
- Enkanomiya is part of Inazuma
- Dessert is part of Sumeru
Don't tell me there will be underground place in Monstad...
Yet another banger of a video from silicone
Fun fact the arrow statues point directly towards celestia
Loving the series! 🎉
Awesome video! Was surprised to hear some lore that I didn’t know before so thank you!
OH. Lisa's "meager" title of Librarian feels a lot weightier with a context of "the aristocracy kept knowledge to themselves & burned secrets of Mondstadt's history in doing so".
Lisa is thus a [public] Librarian in the truest sense of the word: someone who preserves and safekeeps what remains of Mondstadt's records, someone who makes access to books & booklearning free to ALL people in Mondsdadt (to the point where Lisa is still providing reading lessons to Collei, who has since returned to Sumeru)...

Great video Silicon, very interesting, keep it up with thy lore content
Thank you Guzma!!
i wish this video was out earlier to serve as a basis for region lore
I love these, Teyvats lore is very vast indeed
i love this, pls keep making more!
Alice is like megumi from konosuba, her favorite spell is explosion....lol we all know where Klee got her fish blasting hobby from...
they did decarabian dirty 💀
I really liked this! Definitely looking forward to seeing the next ones =D
I really enjoyed the video. Can't wait for the other nations
*Seven wonders from Seven nations. Sounds really symbolic. XD*
I love this! Can you do Enkanomiya soon? The story of that place confuse me so much, I need someone to explain it to me! Haha. I'm subscribing.
Yes just yes
More pls
7 wonders of liyue next!
Idk ik everything of lore , i just love watching this video
Can't wait for expansion
rly enjoy this content!
Love your content!
nice video! love your content
This is a great video idea! But how is Mondstadt Cathedral, the nation's most holy and beautiful building, not on this list?

Mondstat needs an expansion it’s kinda small at the moment
We probably won't get it for awhile but I'm sure you have heard about the port in Mondstat and the dandelion field
We still got Dornam Port. And maybe the dandelion seas but we don't know it that place is just fictional or real
Btw i can give u a theory idea if u wanna hear , like it is super complicated
I always love hearing other theories, so feel free to comment about it!
I can't wait to see liyue but my question is are you doing confirmed lore or speculated.
Because Cuijue slope *might have 2 lore bits. One one hand you can read it's "the nine pillars of peace" but then based on lore and how powerful beings leave lasting effects, wouldn't it also be the place Guizhong died?
I like to implement aspects of both, but I make it clear when it’s speculation.
That area does have dark skies like dust is covering the sun
Sumeru would have like 14 wonders.
Please continue
Alice is the goat
Lets goooo!!!!
Liyue next!!!
for some reason I think that the nameless bard was buried under the Tree at windrise? is that correct? I don't remember the source for this thought.
No, I don’t recall hearing that. And a quick search didn’t bring up anything.
Nameless bard died without seeing the clear blue skies he fought for. So his grave is in the old Mond. The tree in Windrise is where Venessa ascended in Celestia. The tree grew there after her ascension.
Nice
if hilichuruls are kanerians then ofc they are related to the eclipse clan
I believe they are as well, but still, it isn't confirmed yet, so I didn't want to state it as fact.

Nameless island as the 8th wonder?
I decided to connect that with the Thousand Winds Temple instead, as the two fit together quite well in terms of lore.
2 problems with the video - your voice over puts me to sleep, all of these are obvious locations , nothing hidden or unknown
To u they are unimportant but perhaps it will help more people be interested in the game. And help new players with understanding lore.
Nice
