All Things Astrological[]

Columnist: Mona

As the former Astrology columnist sought to retire, he recommended Mona to the editor. Mona's style of writing was much more academic and complicated than her predecessor, but it drew in readers who became interested in the intricacies of astrology.[1] She has written a manuscript for The Steambird on "celestial shifts and their relation to a person's changing fates."[2]

Teyvat Food Notes[]

Columnist: Ryuji-kun (Chinese: 龙二君 Lóng'èr-jun) (the Traveler, not Ryuuji)

The official Chinese Genshin Impact website publishes a series of blog posts originally entitled "The Steambird: Teyvat Food Notes" (Chinese: 蒸汽鸟报社|提瓦特美食札记), although they were later truncated to simply "Teyvat Food Notes." They contain real-life recipes for in-game foods and are written by "Ryuji-kun," their version of the Traveler (specifically Aether), and the stories are written in-character as Ryuji-kun prepares the recipes with the featured character(s).

Tales of Humanity[]

A column for reader submissions. It was created to let people to "express" themselves, and is thus "drowning in all manner of content." The Chief Editor, Euphrasie, believes that this is not a bad thing, as it provides light reading and improves the newspaper's reputation.[3] Many locals use this column to post commissions, and Euphrasie coordinates assistance for them.[4] This is the in-game explanation for Fontaine's Reputation system.
