    The reason for the contract is that Celestia knew that the Archon's would be exposed to forbidden knowledge during the fight with khaenri'ah. The contract was was made to prevent Celestia from having to kill the Archon's afterward.

      @somereallycoolnameorsometh384 9 месяцев назад +8

      I think it has something to do with the archons and the need to have human followers to gain power if they have to have human followers then they means they have to love humans and Celestia knew that eventually they would find out about forbidden knowledge and that the archons would want to save humanity. So the contract would be fell safe to make sure that the archons could not save the humans that They naturally loved. Why would Celestia kill the humanity that they also love well the samsara cycles. I think they need to recycle all of the energy that is within the firmament and that would mean having to reboot everyone and everything because forbidden knowledge would be corrupting it continually almost like having to clean out a fish tank eventually it's going to accumulate waste and you're going to have to clean out the fish tank so that the fish can live their best lives. It would make sense that they archons wouldn't be okay with everyone in their nation getting cltr alt deleted just so they could powerwash teyvat of abyss build up.

    I'm speculating that it has something to do with erosion, we know Zhongli has been around for a long time. Maybe he agreed to help and remain silent in exchange for keeping memories of a precious one or something. Maybe it's a samsara cycle and he can remember someone from last cycle or something.

  • @kotarouinugami1745
    @kotarouinugami1745 9 месяцев назад +31

    About the contract that Zhongli signed, I think it is somehow related to all the knowledge that Archons have, and which they aren't allowed to share with the Traveler. Such as how Visions are distributed.
    Perhaps the contract provides Archons with that knowledge, while at the same time demanding that they do not share it further. And somehow, the events in Kaenri'ah fall into the category covered by that contract.
    At least this way, Archons would not need to negotiate a contract as Kaenri'ah is burning.
    Finally, a word on the Sustainer cubes sent to Kaenri'ah. I wonder if they're actually more like rescue boats, carrying people of Kaenri'ah out of the disaster zone. I mean, they did not kill the Traveler or the Sibling. And they don't seem to be hurled as projectiles, but moving in an orderly fashion.

    It's likely the case that Zhonli signed a contract, as part of him obtaining the Gnosis, to protect Celestia and keep silent about its secrets. Or something to that extent. I don't think it was specific to Khaen'riah, as forbidden knowledge was a problem in Teyvat for a significantly longer period of time than just there.
    Also, I've read somewhere that the area we were in at the beginning of the game was *NOT* Celestia... that was the Celestial Atlas, an area that acts as a sort of intermediary between Teyvat and other worlds. You see this same area in the loading screen. Allegedly it's outside the Firmament.

    It is so interesting that no one accept Scaramouche can give the Traveler any information about their sibling. Of course Pierro the Jester, told Scaramouche about the Travelers sibling living with him prior to the fall of Khaenri’ah and the cataclysm. This was before Pierro become the Jester and created the Fatui. Dainslief spouts poetry, but gives erosin as his excuse for not being able to help the traveler. Venti greets the Traveler, again, then when the Traveler expresses surprise and no memory of Venti, he laughs and backs off. Zhongli is tied up in this contract to someone or something and to continue his comfortable, quiet life, will not suffer the wrath of the rock. Pitiful that everyone wants the Traveler’s help, but no one is willing or able to help the Traveler.

They helped break Silver, also known as the 2nd to last of the 4 stages of Alchemy, also known as PAIMON, into the Gnoses, in order to create the Traveler, whom Albedo was a prototype for, and give him/her a reason to travel Teyvat and RE-COLLECT the Gnoses, slowly unraveling and learning the Truth of this world.

    The fact we don't ask Venti anything is super irritating. Like watching a movie where everything could be fixed if people would have one fucking conversation, but you're forced to watch everyone being excruciatingly dumb until the very last minute.
    The way Zhongli says "before it *all* began" sounds more to me like before the ordering of the world. It's an assumption, but if he were talking about Khaenri'ah specifically, I'd expect to hear him say "before the Cataclysm began" or "the war" or something.
    About Celestia being empty - there was a moment in Chenyu Vale that stuck out to me. In the middle of the quest where we repair the tea pot in the village? We ask the person why it needs to be repaired, or why it broke down or something, and the person replies that _Anything left alone for ages will eventually break down and stop functioning_ (paraphrased). And I dunno why but it sounded to me like they were talking about something else. Like it was the writers' clue to think about other, larger systems left alone for ages. And Genshin, especially lately, loves to do this sort of storytelling where a smaller story reflects the larger story going on, I can't help but think that was deliberate.

    Here's the thing tho... I don't think that place at the beginning cutscene is Celestia at all. If you get a good look at the island in the sky, it doesn't resemble this place in any way; it's round, has buildings, tower, etc. and it doesn't look anything like the place Vennesa reached when she ascended in the manga. Also, the twins had no intentions of going to Celestia, they just wanted to dip. IMO, his place is more of a platform to make the jump out of this world. BTW, this place is physically over Mondtstat, there are folks who have reached it that have videos on it. I'm aware of the inscription on Venti's statue, but that bridge could still be like Bifrost (in Norse mythology). I mean, we walk thru it until we reach a door to enter this world when we log in to the game, so it can be just outside it, but still somewhat part of it.

    The theory that the Heavenly Principles are just incredibly incompetent leaders is one of my favorites. My Name For Now's most recent and ridiculously long video proposes a theory that might support this idea... If you know, you know. Primordial One stuff and all that.
    Anyways, I think Celestia is supposed to guide humanity to enlightenment, but they really don't have a clue how to do it and they probably also don't understand the damage they've done. Or they do, and they're panicking up there trying to fix things and ended up letting the archons do their own thing without interference as a result.
    That's a funny visual...
    A) "Gods above, we fucked up! We gotta do something!"
    B) "We ARE the gods, what are you saying bro-"
    and then someone accidentally drops another Celestial Nail.
    C) "There goes the rainforest. Look what you've done now!"
    A) "Shut up I swear to God-"
    B) "...and you did it again. At least think before you use our names in vain."
    A) "I do NOT care, I'm doing it anyway!
    D) "Can someone please figure out a way to fix this damn planet before another one of you does something stupid?"
    A) "You know what? Maybe Rex Lapis had the right idea. I quit!"
    B, C, D) "You're a Shade, you literally can't quit your job you idiot-"
    Something catches their attention and they look down, only to see that the Cryo Archon has collected another Gnosis.
    A, B, C, D) "..."
    D) "Well, fuck."
    Also, if the Heavenly Principles really are incompetent, then it's probably not the original Primordial One who's up there leading things. It's more likely to be the Second Who Came.

      It's actually been confirmed by Neuvilette's character bio (with high enough friendship) that the Second Who Came lost the war.
      "Severely wounded in the great war of vengeance, the usurper had their functions ruined, and could no longer use their absolute authority to suppress the original order of this world. To continue to subdue and control the resentments and loathing of the world, the usurper and one who came after created the Gnoses together. So it came to be that an order was made to be upheld, and thus did humans come to only possess these seven remembrances, and all fragments of the primordial were driven to devour each other. "
      This also suggests that the very creation of the Gnoses is what triggered the Archon War. It also seems to suggest that the gods involved (who became the Archons eventually) might be fragments of the Primordial One? Surely Neuvilette isn't being so literal here....

      This doesn't discredit your idea, it's just a suggestion for an alternative perspective on this text. Also, the theory that the archons are fragments of the Primordial One is interesting and could provide an answer as to where the Primordial One went after they lost.
      Oh, and the reason why the Primordial One is referred to as the Usurper is because they are the one who took over Teyvat when it was still ruled by dragons.

    But, if our sibling is the Princess/Prince. Then there's a possibility the Abyss has a King or Queen.
    Do y'all think Morax made a deal with them. So they don't harm the surface of Teyvat. But, as all contracts are it has its limits.
    I wonder if that's why the Unknown God sent our sibling to the Abyss like a spy for her. While the other sibling takes care of the problems in Teyvat.

    it's usually which white which is associated with the good guys and black with the bad guys. Even though black people can be nice we automatickly think of someone as white whom we see as a good person cause the it's white which reminds us of that person. Due that reason many may have actually thought someone as such as yourself as white.

    Now, I don't think the contract was about Khaenriah specifically. Maybe, it was about forbidden knowledge, since we know there were incidents regarding it before(? Idk, I firmly believe in my initial theory 🤣 And abt the Sustainer going after us while the world was ending...It makes me think that the sibling was heavily involved in the cataclysm. The sustainer even says something about the arrogance of the humans and stuff when she fights them

    But what if the second party of Zhongli's contract was Nicole. I mean she sees the future and she was able to give us intel during the archon quests in the past. Maybe she made Zhongli sign the contract kinda like Furina and Focalors, Furina had no choice but to stay silent for all those years otherwise the prophecy would come true, could it be something similar perhaps? Or maybe it was with our sibling, she already traveled this world so it would be impossible for Zhongli and Venti to not have met them, maybe when the Khaenri'ah was being destroyed she seek help but because of the Archon ties with Celestia they could help, but somehow the archons were aware of what celestia truly is, I mean they're pretty old, they sure know the tea by now. And because we're still "unconcious", our sibling made a deal with them to not say to us that they met them because we need to see with our own eyes the truth and that's why when we finally meet them they say that we need reach the end of the journey, to see this truth with our own eyes because we're the last piece of the puzzle to knock down Celestia for good. I mean it kinda make sense.

      @@DawitsLookingforEmilia What do you mean by change my mind? They surely in some shape or form had somekind of relationship with the gods. If they already traveled this world maybe searching for us like we do now, they met the Archons. Our sibling's journey started in Khaenri'ah 400-500 years ago as you said and as far as we know, because she traveled with Dainslief and we don't know much of what happened with our sibling(other than the war in Khaenri'ah ofc) from when our sibling started the journey until we woke up. Now I don't remember exactly if they started before or after the Khaenri'ah war, like when it started or when was almost over. But that makes me think, we have the choice to play as one of the siblings and they coexist in the same timeline, what if the whole point that we can play as one of them is to give some sort of point of view about our sibling's journey? Like we got some bits and pieces of what they did and we have to put the pieces back together with what we've experienced so far. Also they assisted some part of the war or all of it I don't remember, they know what Celestia is capable of. Knowing that, the theory of them being behind two of the OG Archons not being able to speak about what happened it's not that far off. We are getting like one quest every new Region about our sibling like we're travelling at the same time just in a parallel universe, which is also what kinda happens when you choose which sibling you want to play as, the have the same journey. Sorry I know it's not really related but with theories my mind just travels at lightspeed and I just wanted to say this. Love theories and love yours too

      @DawitsLookingforEmilia  9 месяцев назад

      aw thanks lol :D
      what i meant to say was 500 years ago, the status of the archons was may have been different then it was now.
      Venti for instance (i believe) awoke several months before the start of the game to deal with stormterror, but usually hes just in a deep sleep.
      Zhongli had just retired right when we came to liyue which gave us plenty of time to become acquainted with him. But prior to that he was appearing once a year in liyue. Now granted his Zhongli vessel may have been around given Zhongli was the one who guided Alice in liyue.
      Ei was in the plane of euthymia.
      Nahida was locked up.
      Focalors was in the oratrice.
      So what I mean to ask is when could our sibiling have met any of the above archons?

    • @aikivya
      @aikivya 9 месяцев назад

      @@DawitsLookingforEmilia I don't think they met the Archons we know, didn't most of them got replaced after the Khaenri'ah war because the previous ones died? Venti I know he may have not been around, I didn't know about daddy Zhongli's retirement, but he was still around and for my theory to be valid our siblig must have met him. But I think they ecountered the previous Archons also like Makoto, Grater Lord Rukkadevata, Egeria, which is why most of the newer Archons that we've ecounterrd so far don't know anything about our sibling, even Ei said that she wasn't around at that time. If you think about it we've never asked any of the previous Archons about our sibling. Makoto's conciousness was there and we didn't say a thing, same with Rukkadevata.

      Joke? No that was serious. When does Zhongli's contract get signed? If it's prior to the Cataclysm the only other date that sticks out is his becoming an Archon. Also presumably other Archons live by the same rules. Again, you mentioned there must have been some benefit to signing on to the contract. Becoming an Archon, since it is seen as some sort of prize, could be that benefit.
      In short when you join the Archons you must not talk about Archon stuff. I was just trying to be concise when I referred to another group in popular culture that had similar rules.

      Or a Shade... The artifact categories represent the four shades and the Primordial one. The Goblet of Eonothem refers to a strate with uninterrupted layers over an eon (kind of a history record of the Earth). Zhongli has a five-fold Celtic symbol on his back, which refers to four Cardinal directions / main elements / moon phases and what binds them together in the middle. And Zhongli has lots of sun references (the four shades could also be the moon sisters and the sun). When he creates his shield, at his hands, he has similar square-like things to the Sustainer's when she stops us. He also has decorations on his shield, which are resembling the cubes of the Sustainer. His eyes are similar to her's, too, and he cannot change those even when he changes form. The sun chariot fell close to Liyue and Mora have tricetra on them. His statue is the only one holding a square... And he called himself a god of mankind, while no other archon did. The PO created the humans with the shades.
      But he is for sure a descender. Of course, the shades are the PO's copies, so they could be considered descenders, too... Or he could be the defeated primordial one, who was demoted after he lost, and was sworn to secrecy about the change.
      ... God, I will go nuts before we get to know! It bugs me more than any other secret of this game....
