Why Diluc And Kaeya Will Be Key Allies Against the Fatui and The Abyss [Genshin Impact Theory]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- IMPORTANT IMPORTANT UPDATE: I JUST ONLY FOUND THE CHAPTER 14 TO 16 OF THE MANGA. DILUC IS NO LONGER IN POSSESSION OF THE DELUSION.
Today, I will be doing a deep dive into the tales of the Abyss and the Fatui's Corruption and Weaponization of Divine Power and why Diluc and Kaeya will play key roles in the story.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This video contains manga spoilers and has used the canon of the manga as evidence. Be warned of this, as there is no announcement as of yet that the manga is completely written off.
I also just wanted to show my appreciation to the two melty bros and the manga because not enough people know the beauty that is the genshin manga. Definitely get a read of that for yourself when you have time!

I low-key feel like the end of the story will start from the place it all started i.e Mondstat. Its too poetic for mihoyo to not do this. Also all the Mondstat characters despite the embodiment of freedom are secretive in some way. Lisa dodges every opportunity to not talk about her ties to sumeru or her past at all despite being the most powerful mage sumeru has seen in 1000 years and then suddenly and inexplicably dropping her pursuit of knowledge and settled down as librarian. Kaeya and Diluc obviously as stated in the video and venti who also doesn't tell us anything about the God of time and her connection. Albedo about his origin... There's just so much
Klee about not bombing the fish…
@@fatuusdottore lmao that is true
mondstadt got some pretty incredible people as well namely Alice, described to be near omnipotent, and Vennessa who ascended to celestia (not sure if other nations have notable people like her), and Albedo (by extension his master Gold) who have ties to destruction of Kaenriah and likely the end-battle involving Tsaritsa with celestia. Bringing it back to Monstadt actually makes so much sense, and would give us nostalgic feels when that time comes.
@@durein8992 exactly... Especially since Lumine (abyss sibling) has shown herself to us in the story in mondstat so much yet never ever in Liyue or Inazuma (its unlikely). Also the thousand winds temple and the distant island where we went for the sundial quest was never explained at all.
In fact Honkai (Genshin older sister) did that: They brought Kiana (Don't confuse with Unknown God) to the same school she meet Mei (Don't confuse with Baal) years ago, and then... No spoilers but it was a big step for those characters
I hope they don’t throw away old characters. Cus with every new character coming out, I feel like the older ones get more forgotten.
I hope they go into older characters more later in the story. Maybe giving the playable ones newer versions of themselves according to the story.
with how they treated them in 1.6, it's clear that mihoyo has a soft spot for the mond !
Well...
*Looks at Albedo*
Well they wont cause kaeya is from khaenr'ah, jean is a replacement for the real grand Master, alise and klee, Lisa is from sumeru and albedo whole existent is a mistery. They all have stories yet to be touched.
been wanting to use that electro delusion for a while
@TinyTime varka
Incredible video! Kaeya is my absolute favourite character due to his lore, and I think most people don't realize how important Kaeya really is. I won't be surprised if we find out that MiHoYo made us "forget" about him in the storyline just to make the future twist even more shocking. I also think most people don't realize how possible and probable the theory about Kaeya being a noble descendant really is (his voicelines, his character stories, other characters' voicelines, his own talents, and constellations, and even his own name suggest royal blood). We know that time flows differently in the Abyss/Khaenri'ah. Childe fell into the Abyss and spent three months there, while that was merely three days in Teyvat. Based on this, 500 Abyss years = 16-17 Teyvat years. So in Teyvat time, the destruction happened 16 years ago. Three years before the start of the game, Diluc's dad died, and about ten years before that Kaeya appeared outside the Winery. It is very, very possible that Kaeya was born in the original Khaenri'ah, in the Dynasty bloodline and thus, he had to survive as their "last hope", which is why his father brought him to Teyvat in the first place. I am almost 100% sure that Kaeya will "betray" us/Mondstat/Teyvat to side with the Abyss for a time only to later reappear at a pivotal moment to save us. A double agent, if you will.
Kaeya won't be just a key ally in the war that's coming against Celestia and the Divine. Kaeya will turn the tide.
Tho in the abyss the cataclysm happened 1000years ago if I am right
Dainsleif told us they so the 500 years is in teyvat time
But I also think that kaeya is not a far descendent but rather a straight heir . It think this part will revovle around the god of time
@@grant0012 Hm, I do not remember Dainsleif specifying whether it was Teyvat or Abyss time, especially since he *is* from the Abyss so his perception of time is probably Abyss-based. However, I could be completely wrong, so I'll revisit my recording of the "We Will Be Reunited" quest to refresh it in my memory. I do agree that Kaeya is probably an heir though, as opposed to a simple noble or a distant descendant. The fact that he was not affected by the curse and has the star in his eye are telling, as is his own name. :)
Actually 4 years before the start of the game
im pretty sure that when dainsleif said that the cataclysm happened 500 years ago, i think he meant in teyvat time:
according to the artifact lore, there lived the late grandmaster arundolyn and his best friend rostam. rostam dies during his expedition to quell the monsters that arose from the cataclysm _500 years ago_ , aka during the fall of khaenri'ah. if the cataclysm did happen 16-17 years ago, then arundolyn would be alive around the time of rostam's death, and still be the grandmaster of mondstadt, but instead it is _varka_ who is the grandmaster. this is indicating that the events of the cataclysm and the existence/passing of arundolyn and rostam were long ago. varka is mentioned as the grandmaster during diluc's days as a favonius knight, which means varka has been around for several years already!
a timeline of 16-17 years isn't enough to accommodate the lore rostam and arundolyn, the events of the cataclysm, and the current events of mondstadt. if it did, then where is arundolyn? why is there no commemoration of rostam if his death were so recent, and why does his legacy only exist in stories? the only answer would be because it was history that happened a very long time ago, specifically 500 years ago, and the story of arundolyn and rostam was preserved throughout time (bc thats how collective learning works!)
also, a catastrophic event such as the cataclysm that is forgotten within 16-17 years by the entirety of teyvat is really strange, BUT if it happened 500 years ago, then it would make sense as to why the traveler had a very difficult time obtaining information from books and people alike about the khaenri'ah and its fall (mentioned in the archon quest in 1.4)
however, i do agree that kaeya will play a really big role in turning tide of the conflict between humanity and the abyss!
@@eiiesig M2 cuz in albedo stories (I am not sure if it was in albedos) it said cataclysm happened 1000 years ago and that 1000year was in kaenrian time ..........
But I think kaeya being a straight heir is true
It could involve something like Annie's crystal in attack on Titan wich seized her to age I am not really sure
Since they have a past with both factions it makes sense as to why they will/could be our greatest ally against them, especially since Dottore basically killed Diluc’s father/Kaeya’s adopted father. I don’t know about Kaeya but Mona predicts that he will have to one day face his past and make a choice between Mondstat or Khaenriah or so I’ve heard.
yeah she does say that, when she says "He believes he has made a clean break from his past" i think the decision he'll have to make isn't necessarily who to side with and who to betray, even though he did mention not knowing which side to take if there was war, but more he may discover something big and decide how to utilise the aquired info and for whom/which purpose
I swear if either Diluc or Kaeya ends up canonically dying I’m suing someone
It's interesting how everything that may very important in story always surrounding around Mondstad.
1. Abbys order using Venti statue
2. First field tiller attacking Mondstad
3. Celestia's nail
4. God of time
5. Abbys order seem targeting Venti's friend to get some "information"
6. Lisa who knew something about the secret of a Gods run away to Mondstad
7. "Gateway of Celestia" bellow Venti statue
8. Until now, Venti is the only Archon who mention about Celestia in his voice line
9. Mondstad seem have the most of important mysterious figure that linked in story progress than other nation: Rostam, Varka, Kaeya, Albedo, Alice, Lisa, Mona (I have a feeling that Varka expedition related to Khaenriah). Other nation seem rarely have any connections to story progress beside the story about their own nation.
Firey vengeance and cold revenge, I like the sound of that
Kaeya and Diluc are one of my favourite characters in Genshin Impact (yes I am a simp) and I can’t wait to see whta Mihoyo has in store for them (pls no death only reconciliation >.
i agree, no death just the much needed reconciliation
SAME and yes no deaths please.
Kaeya will die, heed my words
oh, a correction if that's alright !!
at the end of the manga, diluc actually leaves behind his owl mask and his delusion when escaping the fatui-- he left them in an evelope sent to il dottore :^0
*there's an end to the manga?*
OKAY I FOUND IT OKAY OH MY GOD WHY IS THIS NOT IN THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE OH MY GOD I'VE BEEN LOOKING EVERYWHERE FOR IT
@@ChillwithAster right? It still baffles me that the end of the comic still hasn’t been officially translated on the MiHoYo website. ;-; MiHoYo add it plz.
Could u send me the link to that chapter I haven’t found it?
as someone who played genshin because of kaeya and his lore, when i saw the notification i feel so happy.
both of them are well connected to the fatui (delusions) and the abyss (khaenriah), theres no doubt they will be important to future arcs. the thing is, theyre well connected to the point that its becoming a death flag.
i wonder how will they tackle having two antagonists, with one of them has your twin sibling as their ally. in the end, who will the traveller side on?
(the lore of those two are really good, im glad you tackled this topic! ^_^)
I ALSO PLAY GENSHIN CUZ KAEYA
The really questions in Genshin is where is the Traveler came from and what happen in their world ?
My guesses is war that so devastating until they have to exiled their own world. And this make me think that after Aether and Lumine finished here and they either stay, go fine another world or fine a power that can repair their world.
(Like the Transformers) 😁
There's this theory among the Honkai and Genshin players that they're the lost Project Ark from Honkai, their job is to find another world for humanity, but were never heard from, it's only mentioned in HI3 game once I think, when HoS talked about the projects against honkai that failed, one of them being Project Ark. From how the twins are often predicted and how project ark was shown in the manga, they seem so similar.
@@shmkyuri Agree my friend
I was thinking of something:
I've heard theories before that while Lumine (as the Lost Sibling) is the Princess of the Abyss, there is someone even higher than her in the Abyss's hierachy.
Is it possible that Lumine herself was "corrupted"?
Also on a side note, I'm quite interested to see how mihoyo will develop Lumine and Dainsleif. Dain's name is interesting to say the least, and both have said that they do not lack time.
Dain is just a knight and lumine is the princess
We still don't know who is the king or queen
The Abyss Twin is literally called "Prince/Princess", so there might (and must be) someone of higher rank(s). And honestly, there was always a question in my mind that I'm not sure if it has the answers I'm looking for but I just didn't pay enough attention. Khaenri'ah was destroyed 500, now that's basically canon. Right? Now, Traveler was asleep for 500 years. So Traveler didn't get the chance to wander the lands of Teyvat, because if I'm not wrong, when the Unknown God put them back in Teyvat, the Traveler couldn't really do anything besides sleeping for 500 years.
So now, the Abyss Twin witnessed the destruction of Khaenri'ah (which was 500 years ago), right? What drove them to become literally Against the Gods, when their journey has just begun? Why do they feel so much anger(?) towards a nation they're not familiar with? Ok now you might say things like "but we saved Liyue and helped Dvalin when we first got to Mondstadt [which made us think of the Abyss as enemies]" but like, did we hate Zhongli for putting all of his nation in danger just for the sake of making sure that him giving his Gnosis to the Fatui is not a bad choice? We literally interact with Zhongli once again in his hangout quest, and even when he refused to talk, Traveler didn't seem to react in a way most of us expected.
And did Traveler even think of what their twin said? That they'll understand once they reach the end of their journey? Paimon seems to take it pretty lightly (at least to cheer their friend up). Sometimes when I think about it, I feel that it all depends on what YOU have seen, what YOU have experienced. Or something as simple as the way you think and see things.
The Abyss Twin saw Khaenri'ah being destructed by the Archons, so they probably took a bad idea of how they are like. when Traveler first went to Mondstadt, they also witnessed a bad thing. Dvalin was being corrupted by the Abyss, thus making the Abyss look bad. So pretty much everyone thinks badly of the Abyss. Because they did a bad thing to Dvalin without knowing the reasons behind their actions, other than taking it in the first word that we think of, "evil". They're just evil. Maybe a similar thing has happened to the Abyss Twin? But what makes me feel not so sure about that is because they did say that they know the nature of this world, and that once we reach the end of our journey, we will understand. So they could've changed their view later on?
But then I think of something like, did the Abyss Twin choose to view things in such a "black and white" way? They think ill of everything that they have seen? And why did they say that this world is not for outlanders (or smth like that?) When they're literally outlanders too? What did they just know/see exactly? And other than the different things Traveler and their twin have seen, do they just think differently? I mean, it's kinda nice to think of it that way. So maybe they see thinks in different _lights_? Yk, since their names are both related to light? And the colour of their hair are slightly darker/whiter than the other? ok ok I'm gonna stop lol. I honestly can't make anything out of the things we know, but all I know is that this game is so, so interesting. I literally can't wait to know more. After all, we literally try to find the Archons to know more about our Twin. I really hope we'll know more (even if just a tiny bit) about Traveler's twin in the upcoming chapters. I'm a horrible with stuff like theorising so let's just pretend I said smth cool! :D
@@petrichorrs Wow, not bad dedication!
In my opinion, the main thing Lumine witnessed that made her think of Archon as evil was the destruction of Khaenri'ah: the theory floating around the Internet is that, Lumine knew the name of the nation being destroyed when she woke Aether up: this shows that she must have interacted with the world before waking her brother up. During that time, she grew to like the inhabitants of Khaenri'ah, at last enough to hate the Archon when they destroyed Khaenri'ah for seemingly no good reason.
Also... Doesn't Aether mean the clouds, while Lumine means the light (or something like that)? I feel that they both show how they're from another world, from above (the clouds above, the light from the sun above).
@@petrichorrs also I don't remember the Abyss Sibling talking about outlanders
The Fatui have committed a lot of atrocities to further their goals
Taking the Holy Lyre so that Dvalin is willing to cause more destruction and they will deal with Dvalin
Almost causing the near destruction of Liyue summoning an ancient god to drown
And caused the many atrocities in Inazuma of processing Delusions to kill the Resistence,Nathan breaking the wards which released the wrath of Orobashi in the form of Tartarigami which caused the madness and illness of the residents in Higi Village which also caused Washizu corrupted by Tartarigami to sacrifice the residents to Orobashi and the Mikage Furnace also releasing Tartarigami causing Tartarasuna to become almost uninhabitable
And Dottore's experiments on humans to test if they can ascend into godhood but with dangerous results of his experiments
Yep, so Diluc better exact revenge on them for everything they've done, thanks
is it just me or is the genshin lore actually scaring me now kdjsfbgjksdhfbg
also your narrating is really nice! i really love how you change your tone to like more serious when there's like a darker topic but then the reverse as well where you kind of soften your tone in the lighter topics if that makes sense?
i think that the abyss order may join with the tsaritsa later on in the shadows (it would be cool if we got to see it tho) because they are taking all the gnosis from all the archons and with that much archon power, there's so much stuff they could do
I'm not that familiar with exactly how archon power works but after hearing what you said about it in the video, i think that it will play a big role in like how the abyss order may create something similar if not something exactly like a corrupted archon potentially destroy everything
After newest chapter of honkai all i can see about these 2 is a big battle waiting to happend. 2 brothers grow up beside each other and had a deep bond but go on different path of the tragedy. Each have different background, path to take, end goals or maybe 2 opposing ideals. In the end they will fight each other for their ideals. This is my theory from my experience with mihoyo story telling. I think it pretty obvious that their conflict will reach that some day like their vision (fire>
They already fought once hmmm
@@pudimy i meant the end game battle
Does anyone see a parallel between traveler and kaeya? They are both torn between khaenriah/abyss and tevyat with kaeya's sibling being on the tevyat side and travelers being on abyss side? Also, kaeya is one of the first characters the traveler meets and he sympathizes with the travelers missing family.
This!!
Yep, I can totally see it. Kaeya's like a foil/inverted Traveler.
Ask Rosaria
She definitely know a lot of stuff from Kaeya when he's supposedly drunk
Also, if you want the ally you can trust the most, ask Amber (and others like Barbara, Xiangling, Bennett, etc)
interesting. i also think rosaria knows more than let on. shes supposedly from dragonspine herself, but where?? there are not villages, no place for a kid to grow up especially. so where is she really from?
@@melodicteacup A group of bandit who killed her family
I could see one sentimental reason Diluc ditched the Delusion, and it has to do with Kaeya's eyepatch and how Crepus was reduced to ashes by the stolen Delusion. But that's just me speculating. I'm glad I have both characters since it would be amazing to see them in the end game going ham on the Fatui, both agreeing that the Delusion that Crepus obtained is the cause of his demise. Imagine if they both obtain Hydro Delusions, the element associated to the Archon of Justice. Really bringing things home and taking the fight back to the Fatui.
And maybe in post-game, we get to see the two brothers reconcile.
@That one Guy He'd be steaming! Cast an AoE hydro attack to soak enemies and use his pyro ult to bring it all home. A team up between cryo and pyro users with hydro delusions would be sick to see!
My Theory:
The Traveller will need to learn how to overcome the Fatui and The Abyss Order (clearly). The secret to this is understanding the power of the Archons (understandable). So, how do we accomplish this?
We, The Traveller, receive an Archon's Gnosis (we'll assume we either take it from the Fatui, or it's given to us. I don't see us taking it by force, but that is also possible). We then take this Gnosis back to Mondstadt, to try to unlock it's secrets, using Albedo's and Mona's help.
During this time, The Abyss launches a major attack against Mondstadt, trying to claim the Gnosis for themselves. The strategy is to keep The Abyss away from the city, and take the battle to the Dawn Winery. We lay out a strategy to lure them near the West Side of the Winery, and then have Kaeya come in with the Calvery to surround them.
The Abyss attacks The Dawn Winery as planned, and a battle ensues, but Kaeya never arrives. Instead, he leads a secret Team of Abyss Mages through Mondstadt to take the Gnosis. After seeing his people suffer endlessly, he wishes to take the Gnosis so he can break the curse on his peole, restore Khaenri'ah, and end the war. His plan is perfect. Take the Gnosis while everyone is away. Go to The Abyss. Restore his people. Create peace. He has made his choice....
He leads his Team of Abyss Mages through the Knights of Favonious headquarters to steal the Gnosis that is kept there. However, he finds that not everyone is at the Dawn Winery as expected. Lisa has stayed behind unexpectedly. She had her suspicions that Kaeya was an Abyss Agent, and now she sees him trying to steal the Gnosis.
A fight ensues, and in the heat of battle, Kaeya delivers a fatal blow to Lisa.
He then takes the Gnosis, and disappears into The Abyss.
Back at the Dawn Winery, the battle is being lost. Without The Calvery, Mondstadt is losing their forces too quickly. The Abyss makes it into the Winery, and we have to fight wave after wave. Seeing there is no hope, Diluc embraces his Delusion. He unleashes a tremendous power, and forces The Abyss forces from the Winery. At this point, powerful Ballista shots fire through The Abyss army on the battlefield, as Ningguang, Ganyu, and Keqing arrive with the Millelith. The Abyss sees the battle is lost, and leave in retreat.
In the end, Kaeya has chosen Khaenri'ah over Mondstadt, the Gnosis is lost, Lisa is dead, and we are left scrambling to rebuild.
On the upside, "Kaeya, Prince of Khaenri'ah" and "Diluc, Delusion Unlocked" become two new 5 Star Characters.
That’s actually such an in depth hypothesis I could actually seeing a lot of the key points coming true. Only thing I wouldn’t like about it is that I already have Diluc and kaeya and wouldn’t enjoy paying more money for upgraded versions of characters haha
Honestly I hope we can 'awaken' characters we own when the story progresses. For example, after awakening Childe, we get to unlock his Delusion and his Foul Legacy transformation.
The last part reminds me of battlesuits and augment cores, they might bring it to genshin (hopefully).
As a kaeya simp i would love to see his 5 star version
This would make an interesting theory or hypothesis, if Diluc somehow regains the ownership of the delusion he once had he would probably have to use it again.
But the chances of regaining the owner ship of the said delusion would be hard, Knowing its currently in the possession of A harbinger, Dottore. It’s interesting seeing many people guess which side Kaeya will take once the abyss makes it’s way to war with Mond, or brings up signs of Khaenri’ah starting its revenge, we know Kaeya’s been in the everlasting conflict on which side to choose ever since his father left him with the Ragnvindr family, we’ll just have to wait and see, but this has the gears in my head turning
i've been a silent viewer of your videos up until now. i just have to say that your narration skills are amazing, and that the video itself looks incredibly polished and well-put together. i'm glad to see someone talking about the future story and how it will likely circle back to these two brothers. there are so many hints placed throughout the game and official youtube content that i can't help but think the story is bound to return to mondstadt by the time the true climax comes around.
of course we know that kaeya is an important piece of understanding khaenri'ah and its destruction, but i always felt that theorists tend to understate the involvement that diluc himself will have in this too!
in his collected miscellany, dainsleif wonders if diluc would be so steadfast in his beliefs about the abyss order if he himself were to experience the same calamity that dainsleif did, and while diluc holds disdain for kaeya for his own reasons, it's obvious that when the time comes the two will have to reconcile their differences, or miss their chance entirely. i say that diluc learning the truth behind the abyss order and working with kaeya to devise the traveler's next step is going to be a pivotal plot point.
anywho.. i'm just rambling bc i love to speculate lol :) this video was very interesting, keep up the good work!
They will be doing Diluc a disservice if he NEVER interacts with a Harbinger. The Fatui are directly responsible for the death of his father. He must, at some point in the story, get some sort of retribution. I mean, Signora died. And I’m sure he’s heard about that.
Can't wait for kaenriah chapter. Kaeya will play a key role and probably dainsleif and albedo.
Final Archon quest: " the dream yet to be a dream"
Important characters in the story: kaeya, dain, albedo, tsarita, harbingers, diluc, knights of favonius, lumine, retired archons
-as the traveler closes his journey and learns the truth behind teyvat, he stumbles upon an old friend of his only to find out that he was the prince of the twilight dynasty. The traveler learns why he does this and his motives. The prince of kaenriah, together with the twilight knight journey across the ruins of kaenriah to fathomize a dream that is to be turned into reality. " the pride of mankind will see it's glory one day, we will defy this world with the power from beyond".
people always talk about how much foreshadowing there is surrounding kaeya (and albedo ofc) but i don't hear enough about diluc so i'm really excited to see where you take this 👀
I know right. Ironically, Diluc seems to be a normal citizen in the light while Kaeya is always doomed to be connected to a... darker world. Same with Albedo. It's all because of their ties to Khaenriah.
These two hate each other but when they combine both their powers into one. I can tell you this, they are a force to be reckoned with
Ever since they renamed kaeya’s past passive talent from “heart of the abyss” to “glacial heart” it’s left me wondering if the creators of the game gave a dead giveaway towards kaeyas future endeavors and his connections to Khaenri'ah/abyss?
Also from reading up on keayes/diluc past falling out, I understand it wasn't good timing with crepus dying beforehand but for diluc to react the way that he did left me wondering how or where did he learn about the abyss for him to immediately react like that, or am I just overthinking this altogether and leave it to bad timing? With history being written by the victors I understand that that the losing side won’t have their knowledge passed down or written but I would like to think that Sumeru, the nation of wisdom, could have possibly written down past/current events- perhaps broke them down to become readable and shipped them off to different areas of Teyvat to be researched or discussed amongst other peers.
Somewhere in Jeans voiceline she talks about the heroic king of Khaenri'ah, and it really left me questioning, how many people in Teyvat know of Khaenriahs demise/current fate and portray a deep hatred towards them for whatever reason or worry for them to find a resolve in the predicament they were placed in.
i love your lore theory videos so much this is amazing :(( i really hope in future archon quests they'll be apart of them again somehow. especially kaeya in the khaenriah arc thats in like three years..
thank you so much!! and yeah i hope we see more of them :(
You've become one of my favorite Genshin Lore Theorizer! Keep up the good work!!!
Wow this video really makes you think. Most of the time I'm looking at the Archons as the main villains seeing as they serve under Celestia's whims, a fact that I try never to forget no matter how kind they come across as. (I realize this is an unpopular opinion) But to stop and consider the underlying motivations of our own allies like Kaeya and Diluc really does call for a pause in thought.
The Abyss Order and The Fatui aside for a moment, doesn't anyone find it strange that with everything going on in Tehvat, that Celestia hasn't made any moves yet? Remember Ningguang's floating palace? The whole point of Celestia was to oversee the world. Just how much has to happen before Celestia itself takes action and just what would that entail exactly? It's very strange that we have the freedom to gallavant all across 3 kingdoms, fighting battles that often involve the Archons themselves and Celestia has been strangely quiet all this time. Do you think perhaps the un-named God could be preparing us to be her new champion of sorts? Here we are working alongside the Archons, her subordinates, slaying Fatui, the Abyss Order, Hilichurl and even the Treasure Hunters who explore the secrets of ruins that could expose hidden knowledge she doesn't want exposed! Not to mention we still don't know who Paimon is, always watching us, talking in our ear always.
Yet another point to consider maybe.
This video really got me thinking that is for sure.
Most Suspect characters in Genshin:
1)The Traveler, comes from another world, doesn't know how to cook anything yet already has their own style of sword art (claims they were self taught.) Frequently hides details of their identity such as their age, where they come from and why they originally came to Tehvat to begin with. Let's everyone lead them around by the nose with no decisive personal plan or agenda. Will take on anything in their way regardless of how dangerous they might be. Also displays high levels of being nieve despite clearly being able to read the room. Example: Traveler meets Albedo and submits to all kinds of extensive testing. (For reals!) Then afterwards doesn't even ask Albedo for a favor in return. What favor is that you may ask well how about asking Albedo to use his artistic talents to sketch a portrait of their sibling or perhaps even the un-named God. You'd think that might be kind of important.
2)Paimon, appears to be the last surviving seelie, has knowledge of the world but never talks about their past, joins Traveler after they rescue Paimon from drowning which is odd since Paimon can float!
3)Katherine, clearly a robot who is aware of teleportation devices that only the Traveler understands how to use, may be a means of surveillance for an unknown power. (I just realized that there is also no explanation for why the Traveler understands what they are and how to use them)
4)Dainsleif, seems to have knowledge over everything and everyone, doesn't want to reveal his existence to the archons and narrow mindedly fights against the Abyss Order, may have once upon a time traveled with the MC's sibling.
@@witchcandy3671 Paimon is a seelie... mind = blown
I mean, in Traveler's character story it is said that the Sustainer is dying. So maybe they can't monitor Teyvat effectively as they used to.
Me who realized, that kaeya will be getting more screen time:
honestly the very reason i made this vid was just wondering if these two would get more screentime
@@ChillwithAster even better-
As a newbie player who's too laggy to go to Liye I love Mondstat with all my heart! All my characters exept Sayu are from Mond and I'm european too!
Nice video as always, thanks for menitioning diluc he is my fav character. But when you said: the fatui are dangerous, they are murderers, thieves, liars and monsters. I gotta wonder: Is the abyss and the fatui really the bad side? The victors choose the history, not the vanquished, if we think about this, everyone in the seven nations portray the abyss and the fatui as their enemy, but were they really the enemy from the beginning? Or were they forced to be the enemy? The fatui may be looked upon being the bad side obviously, but everyone strives for what they hold dear and if someone loses something dear they will want revenge and revenge brings another revenge, so my question is: Who is the enemy?
who knows really; both celestia and the abyss could just be evil. depends on the traveler which they deem as lesser.
Perhaps we shouldn’t group them as a hole and point out the notable ones. Look at Childe, he’s sketchy and yes, a bit evil, but he also wants the best for his family. He is both good and bad, and he is also neither. On the other Dottore is just absolutely pure evil, who the hell turns children into war machines? That’s my opinion on it at least, but yes, I do regard the Fatui and Abyss as mostly evil, at the moment. I’m positive that the Knights are at leadt the good guys through this. Good intentions does not excuse terrible means. I think, even with how shady Kaeya is, that in the end he will choose the ones who welcomed him over the ones who pushed him away. I really hope he chooses Mondstadt, he seems to do everything for them. I do think Celestia is a bit evil too, but I’m positive that Venti at least, isn’t evil. Perhaps this is Celestia’s punishment. As Dazai says, “Evil expects evil from others.”
I think it is fairly safe to say that all of the knights of favonius will get their big moment in the story. For instance, I would be amazed if Lisa doesn't get a moment to shine in Sumeru. Though it is definitely clear that Diluc and Kaeya have a big role to play in the main plot over the rest.
I hope this isn't just wishful thinking, Amber needs a bit more in the story than teaching the player how to glide... Maybe something with her grandfather.
The Fatui are so dark as shit but still people simp for Dottore
you are becoming one of my favourite genshin theory youtubers
aww thank you ~
Omg it would be so cool if they would do something like Kaeya being able to decide our fate. Also we know so little about him and always we ask him about something He won't answer. Haaa there's so many things we don't know
I’d love to see Diluc (Delusion) as a playable character. I could totally see Hydro as his Delusion element
I really like your theories and you really have a knack for story telling and setting a spooky mood just with your voice
I kinda remember that Diluc destroyed the Dilusion in the manga, right after he escape the fatui... But not 100% sure
the manga ended so abruptly that I'm not even sure myself
@@ChillwithAster yeah. But I think that is in the part that it is no fully translated, so that might be why we don't remember
@@samvelfuen yep! Found it! Just found the chPt 14 to16 cause it wasnt on the official manga. Corrected it in the desc i had no idea it existed
Both the Abyss Order and the Fatui are hellbent on tearing down Celestia. Where we encountered the unknown God. Evil begets evil. The Fatui and the Abyss order are reacting to the divine far above. We know way too little.
Celestia is flawed as hell and you're right, we still don't have anywhere near the complete picture.
just putting it out the there, that monstadt has a calvary captain but ive never seen a horse in game
Aaah, Diluc and Kaeya, sunshine and starlight. My favorite pair of sibling. ❤️ Your video, always well crafted 😊👍
I really get the feeling that when the time comes. Pulcinella (I don't remember how u spell it exactly) will EASILY be one of the most low key fucked up characters I've seen in anime/manga in a LONG TIME. After all they go by "the jester"
Iirc pulcinella ( the one in the trailer) i think is the rooster and pierro is the 1st harbinger and the jester, not sure
@@ChillwithAster oh? I could have swore they said the one in the chair was but I could be wrong. Lot of build up around the one in the chair I know that much
We don't really know much about kaeyas past ........ Damn I would wish they would reveal more what possibly could have made kaeya the deceptive man he is today
U should make a kaeya theory video just an idea
i shouldd but the lack of information on him is just so upsettingly dry that I need to wait up on it
Fatui hate the abyss from what i know, on the pale flame artofact, they just hate everyone apparently, probably tsaritsa's form of love is cleanse teyvat from any kind of magic. Zhongli agree with her probably because that's the only way people would be equal??? no vision no ley line shits (used by abyss mage) & slyly, if celestia gonna go berserk again it won't be his country that going to take the hit, it's the tsaritsa's, if failed, snezhnaya would be the next khaenriah, advance tech? gnosis collection?? that's enough to make celestia nuke snezhnaya. ZHONGLI ONLY AGREE BECAUSE IF TSARITSA'S PLAN FAIL IT WOULD BE HER LOSS NOT HIS OR OTHERS but if she success it would benefit all of teyvat (damn this man is a businessman but no retirement savings) I can't imagine any other reason why zhongli agree, the thing put on the scale is the betterment of teyvat, which zhongli will take as he cherish his people, but it is too complicated for him to explain so zhongli told us to see it ourself on why this world need an upgrade or sum.
The abyss would be everyone's enemy as they want to destroy nations, while tsaritsa as fcked up as the fatui is wont let her people die, destroying 7 nation is not her intention as she seems care enough about human liberation. abyss want to take the divine & take over control of teyvat, they have no problem on killing human.
melt nation WE RIDE AT DAWN.
yes my best bois, i swear if they dont make up soon im gonna be disappointed..
Mondstadt still hides many mysteries and lores
If MiHoYo ever needs a new narrator, I totally hope they hire you.
dainslief move out of the way
I came here faster than the Raiden Shogun because I love your content
Me who finished the Manga from the Prologue-Chapter 16 and read it multiple times be like: "👁👄👁 I already know but let's pretend I don't know since it would be more exciting, *wOw!"*
People: man Tartaglia so howt
**Watches **14:10****
People: man Tartaglia so howt
Same. Tartaglia is hawt
Great vid! I'm getting more amazed with your vids every time! What do you think about the correlation of the gnosis with chess pieces? Like Venti's gnosis symbolises the Queen- which is the piece with most freedom in the board- and Zhongli's the Rook. Do you think that this is something deeper within the story (like we can theorise the archons involvement to the plot by looking at the chess pieces meaning in a chess match) or you believe it's just a aesthetic reason? I really would like to know what you think abou this ^^
My theories about this is maybe
Fatui vs Abyss
Or
Fatui & Abyss vs celestia
imo itd be rlly anticlimactic, cliche, and predictable for kaeya to definitively choose one side over the other (khaenriah or mondstadt/teyvat). according to his in game story his entire life and character arc has been him having internal conflict about which side he should choose. im so curious to know later on how he really feels about khaenriah, the gods, his birth dad, any connection w dainsleif or any other known khaenriahn character???, what was the ancient plot about??, what his life was like before his bio dad dropped him, before the ragnvindrs, etc. what if kaeya chooses neither in the end. ends up in a situation where that choice is taken off his table. what if hes the catalyst for khaenriah and mondstadt/teyvat reconciling their differences, instead of warring with each other, in order to unite against celestia for the final battle. also something something khaenriah and mondstadt/tevyat reconciling has something to do with kaeya and diluc eventually reconciling.
Ok, let me just say, I love your theories. All of them.
Yeah kaeya is a big foreshadow hahaha he's a very important character
I like what you did with the description there.
I’ll try to find out what it means.
THE CORRUPTION TRILOGY ASKS OF THE PAST, THE PRESENT, AND THE FUTURE.
The Present: You are here now
The Past: She found gold
The Future: Karma will come collect your debt
ehe
Imagine if MiHoYo decided that Kaeya would be a 6 star characte-
I’m confused about why you keep bringing up konrea the day keaya revived his vision was the day he turned his back on his original mission. It was his choice to try and save his adoptive father the day he died in direct contrast to the goals he had set out with his father to achieve. That was when he received his vision.
i think you got it mixed up
kaeya received his vision in fight with diluc when he told him about his mission
Wow!!! That ending gave me goosebumps!!!
Awesome
Abyss was made just to take revenge on Celestia, and gods destroyed Kaeya's home, Khaenri'ah.. then why would Kaeya go up against Abyss, rather he should help to eliminate Celestia.
Yesss
AHHH
IM SO HAPPY SOMEONE ELSE THINKS LIKE ME
Ooh this is pretty interesting
The way you talk let us think you know the whole thing already and just tease us with bribes..
im actually lumine in disguise, i've already been on this journey once
@@ChillwithAster damn so you don't die :/
i wonder if now that we know that kaeya is colluding with the fatui based on the bake danuki event how that will change things and if they will become important in sumeru
Can you do a video on the twins
Okay fine, have my subscription.
You do need more subscribers
The only question about kaeya is.. if the khanreiah destroyed 500 yrs ago? Then where he really came fram is he 500 yrs old? How come he is from there but the placr is destroyed long ago. Didnt makes sense to me
He's most likely a descendent
Bestie, your last line?? ExplaiN
Why woud Zonli and the other arcon give there Gonusis (? That thing conecting tham to celestia)
Kaeya is sus tbh the heck is he doing buying food for the FATUI in the new update
That was cool!
Couple of incorrect statements: one is the alliance between abyss and the tsaritsa will never happen, the other is the fact that diluc still has a delusion, he broke it
Why not? They are both against Celestia.
@@Gnidel celestia and the abyss have different end games. One wishes to bring forth a better world, the other wishes a future of chaos in which both celestia and everyone else has been yeeted. I'm p sure there's an in game source that states directly that the relationship between the tsaritsa and the abyss is hostile. I'll try to find this for you
@@Gnidel
"We share the same goal, you, your Tsaritsa, and I."
"Cleanse the sources of distortion in this world: short-sighted, ignorant gods and the darkness and corruption of the Abyss."

woo lets goo woohooo
Sees the video 🎥:-amazing!!
Sees the subs:- 700k+
Understandable
Sees the subs again:- 🙃
Let's goooooo
God , for the last time !
Kaeya is NOT ADOPTED
He and diluc were sworn brothers
Good video tho
Kaeya is adopted into the Ragnvindr family. It says in his story. Crepus is his adoptive father. I dont think sworn brothers and adoptive brother are isolated definitions.
@@ChillwithAster ok ... you see... sworn brothers un chinese culture are two people who swearto be loyal to each other and become sworn brothers , i suggest you look it up
And they did take kaeya in , but he was never legally adopted
Wait, didn't diluc gave back the delusion?
Yep he did; clarified in the desc
I hope not they're not allies, that'll just make Diluc overshadow Kaeya more
What if Diiluc's actually a harbinger lmaooo
:-)
TL;DW; Keaya is hinted to be a Khanri'ah prince and the only one who has close connection to him is Diluc. there i save your 18:36 minutes of your life.
