The Statue of the Omnipresent God is a statue in front of Tenshukaku where all the Visions taken by the Vision Hunt Decree are inlaid.
After completing Stillness, the Sublimation of Shadow (Act II of the Inazuma Archon Quest) a Patrol Soldier will stop the player from going near the statue.
After completing Omnipresence Over Mortals (Act III of the said quest), the Visions were removed from the statue and returned to their respective owners after the Traveler defeated Ei.
Identity[]
Unlike how the Statue of The Seven depict each nation's Archon, this statue does not match the appearance of any historical or current character whose appearance is currently known. However, there are numerous indications suggesting that the statue of the Omnipresent God is dedicated to the Raiden Shogun.
Notable traits that may give clues to its identity include the following:
- The statue, called the "Thousand-Armed and Hundred-Eyed God" in its original language, has a clear connection to the Shogun. Her chakra desiderata, known as "The Wheel of All Wishes and a Hundred Eyes," directly references this statue.
- The title of Inazuma's Archon Quest, "Omnipresence Over Mortals," translates in the original language as "The Thousand-Armed Hundred-Eyed (God) and the Human Realm Under the Heaven," further reinforcing the association between the Shogun and the Omnipresent God.
- The description of the Raiden Shogun's Story Quest directly refers to the Raiden Shogun as the Omnipresent God.
- Ei cut all ties with Celestia[1], making it unlikely that the statue is dedicated to a goddess like Istaroth. Furthermore, there is no evidence that Ei ever saw Istaroth in person, so the statue would not make sense as a tribute to her.
- The wings and pendant of the statue are covered with eyes, a symbol widely associated with the Raiden Shogun. In her form as Magatsu Mitake Narukami no Mikoto, the Shogun is adorned with eye and arm designs similar to those of the Thousand-Armed and Hundred-Eyed God. The purple pattern behind her head also resembles the statue's wings, as seen in the "Inazuma's Story Promotional Video" and the teaser "The Solitary Pursuit of Lightning."
- The base of the statue features the Mitsudomoe, an Electro symbol directly linked to Ei, further reinforcing the idea that the statue represents the Raiden Shogun.
- The statue appears to be a physical manifestation of the concept of eternity that Ei pursues, rather than a representation of an actual divine figure. This aligns with Thoma's voice line[2] and the description of the achievement "The Aspirations of All" as "the symbol of Eternity."
- Both Itto and the NPC Yamada from the Grand Narukami Shrine mention that the statue belongs to the Shogun[3][4], further solidifying its identity.
Trivia[]
- The English localization of "Statue of the Omnipresent God" was previously "Statue of the Thousand-Armed, Hundred-Eyed God," which is a direct translation of its Chinese and Japanese names.
- The statue parallels the Great Buddha statue in the real-life sword hunt (Japanese: 刀狩 katanagari), which Toyotomi Hideyoshi decreed to be constructed using the nails and clamps forged from confiscated weapons.
- When we arrived in Inazuma, Thoma mentions that the statue is still under construction[2].
- In the description for the achievement "The Aspirations of All," the statue is simply described as "the symbol of Eternity."
- The distance between standing on the hands of this statue and sitting on the hands of the Anemo Archon Statue in Mondstadt is exactly 6666m.
- Itto's Vision was embedded near the bottom of the statue, just above a Pyro Vision belonging to an unknown owner.
- The identity of the statue has been the subject of much debate.
- The statue may simply be a personification of eternity or some other concept, rather than being modeled after a real figure in Genshin Impact. This is similar to how the Statue of Liberty in real life is a personification of the concept of liberty based on the ancient Roman goddess Libertas and is not intended to be seen as a model of a real person.
