The fact that we are just two years away from getting this story all put together is wild. Hoyo has managed to keep the lore kept scarce regarding this region. Which tells me that the lore dump is gonna be JUICY when we finally get to that point in the story. I hope that even when we reach Sneznaya we get a peak into Celestia considering the conflict between the Tsaritsa and the Heavenly Principles.
Nice explanation, thank you for compiling all this information. The abyss and Khaenri'ah are so interesting but appear so little outside their designated patches, this compilation helps alot
It is somewhat foreshadowed already that Theyvat IS the siblings homeplanet and the field of flowers Dainsleif stands on is what Lumine remembers from her planet. She is afraid that Aether is going to lose memory of her, that's why she calls him by his name all the time. Now Lumine is most likely dead and became the Gnosis hence her fight with destiny. The Fontaine prophecy was created to free Childe from the celestial fate written in the constellation. I don't know how many in game knows that their fate is fake, but some seem to, Arlecchino for instance says that once her true fate is revealed she will not hesitate this implies that she knows that her constellation fate is manufactured and not her real fate.
i may completely be wrong but here is my theory. there is someone waiting outside of teyvat world to capture 4th descendant. so sustainer of heavenly principle blocked both siblings and hid 4th descendant away. that's why the other sibling is released lot sooner. she striped away of the 4th descendant powers so he won't get out of teyvat world and also because of 3rd descendant powers are remained in teyvat in the form of gnosis. so 4th descendant can gain all of that power and grow stronger before leaving. as far as i know fatui is trying to revive the 3rd descendant because fatui is collecting all the gnosis which are 3rd descendant body and fatui experimented on creating a god in sumeru. The seven archons were created to protect the teyvat from outside of the world of teyvat. when they first appointed as archon their power is not enough as a god so they were given gnosis which contains lots of power which allowed them to act as gods. as for the abyss order. some of Khaenri'ah's people made deal with outside and opened portals in tevat. so rift hounds will come and search for 4th descendant but luckily sustainer of heavenly principles hid 4th descendant. those actions of Khaenri'ah's people made sustainer of heavenly principle angry so with the help of archons Khaenri'ah was destroyed and it's people were cursed. But unfortunetly vast of Khaenri'ah people doesn't know anything. so they created abyss order to take revenge or to clear the curse.
Love the lore walls and the short recaps for smaller things are so helpful to understand the lore! Maybe you could do a Hexenzirkel recap before we get into Natlan :D
as someone who consistently fails to connect the dots with lore I LOVE the recaps and visual of the wall

A lot of it is found in world quests such as Khvarena of good and evil and The Narcissenkreuz quest line outside of the ”designated patches”.

This was amazing! Great job. Thank you for the visual presentation for the lore.
I love the lore wall. I actually liked the longer videos more but this is also very good and very helpful!

Love the deep dives….Thank you.
CHILDEE MENTIONNN
Hold up. Celestia is the one who cursed them?
Please say Rhinedottir properly, if it's an accent thing that's fine but the name means Daughter of Rhine, Rhine Daughter, Rhinedottir
don't the descenders also have something to do with dain
Well we don’t know anything about that yet. I don’t see how they would correlate but it’s too early to say.
