All Nod-Krai Faction Teaser Images
Compilation of all of the Nod-Krai faction teasers that the official genshin Reddit has posted. All captions are copy pasted from there and are not my words.
The "Palestar Edict," that highest of commands, has gone out. With it, the Fatui Harbingers have been summoned back to Snezhnaya and dispatched to Nod-Krai. The people stare and wonder: for what purpose does this army, bearing the banner of the Pale Star, come to their city? Or perhaps the question should be, "For whom?"
The descendants of the legendary golden realm, who chose to find new homes among the mountains and forests after abandoning their ancient civilization. The only thing they never forsook was their faith in the "Moon Goddess." However, with the arrival of the Fatui, it ap…
Natlan enemy mechanic designs
The enemy mechanics introduced in Natlan seem very much like they're problems created to sell solutions. This has riled a lot of people up, and many people say that the Pneuma and Ousia stuff in Fontaine wasn't that bad, but I have to disagree.

Bangs that move
Beginning with Version 5.0, all eligible bangs on new models are noticeably affected by typical physics, instead of just being rock solid immutable objects that you could either file your nails on or be stabbed to death with (even if some of them were slightly animated).
This includes 4* characters as well as new outfit models, even when it looks like they don't have different bangs.
Additionally, the bangs on Ganyu's 4.4 outfit model and Nilou's 4.8 outfit model appear to have the same level of susceptibility to typical physics. (Shenhe's 4.4 outfit model doesn't have eligible bangs, and it doesn't look like Xingqiu's 4.4 outfit model or Kirara's 4.8 outfit model have bangs that move at all.)
The way they're affected by typical physics is ve…
Natlan was originally going to be much worse
First: I am NOT saying "just be grateful for what we got". We should always hold people accountable.
I'm writing this post because I don't think people realize how likely it is that Natlan was originally going to be really, really bad. I've always believed this, and Montluson's rant in Citlali's Tribal Chronicles just strengthened my belief.
- 1 Tribal Chronicle Chapter for the Masters of the Night-Wind
- 2 Natlan's Modernity
- 3 Genshin Impact is a Chinese Game
- 4 Iansan
- 5 Barnabas
- 6 Conclusion
Citlali's Tribal Chronicles were likely written or at least drafted before the very first Natlan teaser we got, and thus before all of the hot potato controversy. Let's work backward:
- In order for all of the lines to be voiced, the VAs need to voice them--well yes, of c…
Genshin grapes
Look at how far we've come. From the Dawn Winery grapes cone to gloriously individually sculpted grapes in Natlan. Behold.
Edit: WAIT, THERE'S ACTUALLY A BASKET WITH APPLES AND A BUNCH OF INDIVIDUAL GRAPES THAT SHOWS UP IN JEAN'S STORY QUEST okay but they still look different

"The Traveler as Fate's Architect: A Deep Dive into Teyvat's Reality”
What Dainslef said in the Teyvat Chapter Storyline Preview "Then the threads of all fate will be yours to re-weave." Does that have to do with the Loom of Fate? Or with traveler being able to “re-weave”. It's found out that the Abyss Orders plan “Loom of Fate” can be used to alter the Ley Lines like what happened in “Caribert” when the traveler found Chlothar Alberich with his son Caribert who was turned into a hilichurl. During the “Bedtime Story” quest It's found out the Loom of Fate is “a device that could create Ley Lines; in its primitive form, it could create and implant memories, but when fully unlocked, while still being able to create Ley Lines of its own the ability to create and implant memories is lose but it still could “chang…
An Ode to the Wind of Freedom
To Aysu or whoever is reading this, I hope you'll enjoy what I wrote!
“Beauty of the world we share
Never broken, never destroyed
People know what is like to be there
Protected by what was deployed”
The little spirit listened with excitement. It didn’t know much about the world around them, he had just come down on Earth. Earth… People here called it differently…
“You know, it’s kind of weird. You sit here, on my bed and even though you don’t speak, I know you listen and understand. I can see it in your eyes! Despite them being so tiny… I love having active listeners!” the young bard exclaimed. The spirit was happy. Seeing the boy smile made him happy.
They boy and the spirit met a few days ago, at the city’s border. The latter has just come to t…

Post drafts
This is where I’ll write up draft versions of essay length posts and replies. I’m doing this so in case my IPad dies/disconnects I’ll still have my writing. Spoilers ahead, read at your own risk.
WARNING!!!! This post contains spoilers for the Natlan archon quests.
Alright, I love Capitano and want him playable just as much as the next person. However, in this case I believe the the evidence is stacked against him and we won’t be seeing the 1st Harbinger join the playable roster. Quite the opposite actually. Sadly, I do believe Capitano will die.
Now I know what you’re thinking. “Pulsar, why would you say such a thing?” Well, let’s back up. We know Capitano is from Khaenri’ah, and was bestowed with the immortality curse by the Gods. His body …

The Great Masquerade (WIP)
Aysu, I said I wouldn't get this done, but I guess I did? I'm not even sure if this is too good, or fits within guidelines.
Also, warning. I mention a lot of stuff about blood.
We all wear a thousand masks. I paint a story on the back of each one, dyed grey and red, slipped on an old man's face, as valor spills from his tongue.
You claim to value me, but you do not do so when it is convenient, you will sacrifice me and leave me eventually.
You strive needlessly for me.
What am I?
Play this song Here (Mild spoilers for Canto VII, but you don't play limbus, Aysu, you said your parents would get pissy. Just play the song, for God's sake.)
Once, a knight of a land far distant slew a great beast, or so say they say.
Once, a kingdom rose from the ocean,…

Tartaglia's Constellation Revamp!
"I am the least adept with a bow. And that is precisely why I must master it." – Childe/Tartaglia (Ajax)
- 1 Introduction
- 2 Tartaglia: Summary
- 2.1 Gimmick
- 2.2 Current Constellation
As one of the older characters, Tartaglia's constellations are considerably lacking in strength when compared to the newer characters. This rework aims to elevate Tartaglia's constellations, essentially giving them more value and strength matching that of the current meta characters.
This revamp is made for fun, and therefore may not be perfectly balanced. Criticisms are very much welcomed, though please do not spark any controversies in the reply section!
By the way, C3 and C5 remain unchanged as both are +3 levels to either Elemental Skill or Burst talents.

Hi so um I talked to the Yasumoto npc on Yashioro island to try to get primos. But while I was in the dialogue, I got hit by lightning and fell into the electro river.

A Bloodtainted Mine
Bear with me if this is mid it's my first time writing
It was a peaceful night. The moon was shining bright, the stars all visible without a cloud in sight, and the breeze gently blowing.
So too, was the House of the Hearth. It was one of the few moments that I didn't have to worry about anyone, since no one was out on a mission.
I sat there, reading, as the hearth fire crackled from across the room.
I looked around at the sound of footsteps, and saw Lyney, Lynette and Freminet walking up to me.
They all retained their usual expressions, but with an undertone of nervous anticipation.
When they reached me, there were a few moments of awkward silence as I looked at them, waiting for someone to speak.
Finally, Lyney spoke up.
"Father, if you wouldn't…
Crimson Shadows of Departure
Please read Arlecchino’s character story here before reading this short story!
DISCLAIMER: This story contains mentions of blood, gore, and suicide. Reader discretion is advised.
In the days before the name “Father” existed, there was a girl named Peruere. She had only two friends in the House of the Hearth: Clervie and Vivienne. Clervie was the daughter of “Mother," but she knew not of Vivienne’s origins, only that she was originally from the Fleuve Cendre and was abandoned by her parents because of a disease that made her lose control of her body at certain times. According to Vivienne, it took a couple months before “Mother” found her, unconscious and bloody, in a dark alleyway.
“Mother” was talking to the children in front of the hearth. …
Memories of the Lost
“Kiki, could you please hand me that bottle over there? Make sure not to break it!” said a young girl as she poured this and that into a pot. “Kiki,” whose real name was Okiku, nodded and handed her the bottle. Except the thing was, Okiku didn’t have a body. Or rather, she didn’t have a physical one. She was a ghost, and upon stumbling across the young girl she decided to follow her. The girl, whose name is unknown, was ecstatic when she found out. Ever since then, the two have bonded over their love of science…and killing

Experiment 168, Unit 731
“I can’t believe what he’s going to do.”
“How can Her Majesty commission him of all people to find a cure?”
“He’s a monster…”
The blizzard howled outside the fortress of ice, its fury rattling the windows of the hidden laboratory. Inside, the warmth of the hearth was an illusion; the true heart of this place was as cold as the glaciers that surrounded it. The walls, adorned with intricate ice sculptures, reflected the dim light of flickering torches. In this eerie luminescence, Il Dottore's shadow danced, a specter amidst the grim relics of his work.
Down the corridor, through doors that whispered secrets as they swung open, lay the chamber of experiments. Here, the scent of antiseptic failed to mask the underlying odor of decay. Glass tanks f…

Silence passes for him, the pillars no longer slumber.
The noises of storms outside this forsaken hell will never cease, a

The storms roar outside, but the rain isn't audible, the lightning unseen, thunder muffled.
All robbed of their purpose, just like him.
Silent years, passing in a blink of an eye, but lasting longer than the Eternity his creator sought.

"It runs in the family"
Cold atmosphere is quite rare in Fontaine. With the air filled with salt and the warm sea, it’s often quite tame. But the mother felt an eerie cold crawling and spreading against her skin. Frail fingers, with motherly warmth and a sorrowful hollowness in her bones, clenched at her sides.
Her youthful beauty was rotting away in this state, this stress had her hair pulled from its roots by gravity, her eyes pushed backward, and her steps trembling quietly over elevated ground. One thought ran through her head, and it was simple.
I’m a terrible mother.
The woman had a habit of hiding tears in the depths of her heart, they rarely surfaced. When they did, it was a quiet shudder that only her son could detect from a mile away.
Her son. How she’d mis…

Little gaming theory
Uhhh so lantern rite 4.4 is coming up and the trailer dropped. and in one scene, where everybody talking about reuniting and stuff, we see Gaming being a bit sad and upset. So it got me wondering, did something happened to Gaming?
This is just pure speculation or theory. The 4.4 hasnt dropped yet, and im doing this just for fun!
"If you happen to hear the sound of drums and gongs as you're walking through the streets of Liyue Harbor, let your ears lead the way. With a bit of luck, you might just be fortunate enough to witness a performance of Gaming's remarkable Wushou Dance."
So, we know that Gaming is a Pyro vision, claymore user who works at a Transportation guard, and a dancer. However, i do think Gaming does perfomances in secret. As its …
(Essay) Baizhu is underrated and here's how.
Baizhu. As long as you have finished the Liyue Archon Quest, you know who he is!
But, have you ever really sat down and thought about him? Let's be real, you might never think about him since he had gotten very short screen time in such an old part of the game.
Though my real question is: Do you like him?
Right now, I am staring directly at @CloudyBerryGirl who states; "Hu Tao is best, Baizhu sucks". I know either half or a quarter of that is a joke but I know that there are actually people who GENUINELY think that Baizhu is a bad character. And guess what? I've found out that a lot of them don't know anything about Baizhu besides the fact he's a doctor.
Sit back and relax while I explain to you why Baizhu is very underrated and actually a great…
Paimon = Unknown God? BUSTED!
"Descender" is a term used by the Fatui and other notable individuals for outlanders who do not originate from the world of Teyvat but come to live within it. The Traveler is known as the Fourth Descender, and Lesser Lord Kusanali presumes that the Heavenly Principles is the First Descender, while the Third Descender is presumed dead and the Fourth Descender is the Traveler.
As Descenders come from worlds beyond Teyvat, they are not bound to the laws of Teyvat and the Traveler, the Fourth Descender, is called to be a 'witness of Teyvat's fate'. Their memories also are not changed if Irminsul is tampered with.
For example, when Greater Lord Rukkhadevata erased herself from Irminsul, the Traveler remembered her. However, Paimon and Nahida forge…
Optimizing Image Quality and Source File Retrieval Tips for Twitter, HoYoLab, and Miyoushe
Let me tell you a little secret. When saving images from Twitter, HoYoLab, and Miyoushe, doing so helps in preserving the correct dimensions and bit depth of the images.
Before that, I want to tell you how to observe the differences in color and noise caused by file compression:
I recommend using Photoshop. After aligning two versions of the image in separate layers, change the blending mode of the upper layer to "Difference" to easily observe image differences. Of course, the "Difference" blending mode can also assist you in aligning the images, so you can choose the blending mode first and then align the images. At this point, two almost identical versions should appear as pure black, and any differences you can see beyond pure black are t…
an even bigger mouthful: hidden kindreds in neuvillette's gameplay mechanics
As is natural, I have once again delved into the details (and the devils in them, respectively). After watching my sister complete Masquerade of the Guilty, I noticed many, many allusions to aspects of ever deep; even the shallower lore, included in specifically Neuvillette's character skills, passives, and stella activations.
- 1 Sidenote
- 2 Neuvillette's kit and what the names mean: an enigma indeed

- 2.1.2 What About Fontainians?
- 2.1.3 What Does This Mean?

- 2.1 As Water Seeks Equilibrium
- 3 Neuvillette's stella ascensions and what the names mean: even more confusing

Many concepts and hints pointed to in these observations are a stretch, and all content is speculation. I only wish to…
a goddamn mouthful: why focalors was and always will be furina
As is natural, I have spoiled myself by watching my sister complete Masquerade of the Guilty. In it, I noticed five key things:
- Furina is affected by Primordial seawater.
- Furina is Focalors' "ideal" self.
- The Hydro Gnosis was originally a portion of Neuvillette's authority over Hydro, collected after the Seven Sovereigns lost the war for Celestia.
- The Archon War was likely the Heavenly Principles' own plan to assume chaos over Teyvat.
- The divine seat of Hydro Archon ceases to exist.
- Furina didn't dissolve during the fulfillment of the Prophecy.
Of course, only a couple of items on the list pertain to the matter at hand.
- 1 A supposed TL;DR: from "original sin" to "final judgment"
- 1.1 The Creation of "Mankind"
- 1.2 Furina—Regina of All Waters

Essay: Writing on the Wall
If you didn't know, Writing on the Wall is a song made by Will Stetson about Kaveh and his struggles with multiple problems (perfectionism, repeatedly having his ideas turned down by clients, his increasing debt, etc). And today, I will be sharing my thoughts on the song, as I think it's really well-done and that most people need to listen to it (god hopes I don't lose motivation halfway through).
This'll be split into two parts and one mini-part: Pre-Despair and Despair, and the mini part being Instru(mental breakdown).
Without further ado, let's get started.
- 1 ~Pre-Despair~
- 2 ~Mini-part: instrumental break/instru mental breakdown~

As most of us should know, Kaveh was the architect behind Dori's Palace of Alc…
