@@reignbird For future readers, this person's statement is misleading. The Hyperion (白夜の光) was the original official name of the Sun Chariot during the Byakuyakoku era. Later when they became Enkanomiya, the Hyperion became known as the Dainichi Mikoshi. The Sun Chariot was only referred to as the "Helios" by Abrax and his fellow Engineers who constructed it. For more context, check the World Quest "Hyperion's Dirge."
@@DragonMJE I wanted to help, misleading is a bit harsh of a callout but it's ok. Checked the things you referenced, emerged out of the rabbit hole, gonna use many words. "Aberaku: Helios is the Dainichi Mikoshi, the solar chariot that drives the Hyperion" The word "drives" is 运载 in CN which narrows the meaning down to the less ambiguous "carries". Therefore: - Helios = DM (Dainichi Mikoshi) - Helios =/= Hyperion, it's the chariot that carries it - consequently DM =/= Hyperion Sure, Enjou seemingly contradicts it by saying that DM's name was Hyperion. Actually, Enjou specifies that the name Hyperion "refers to the main body of the sun", a very important point. In the Aberaku's quote Hyperion is dubbed as 白夜之光 meaning Light of White Night. Since Helios is the chariot that carries Hyperion, Hyperion is the light-emitting mechanism on top of it. Helios = Chariot, DM itself, holds Hyperion high, connects it to the day/night switches etc. Hyperion = Sun, the light-emitting component of the DM, the very "main body of the sun" mentioned by Enjou, dubbed 白夜之光. Sure, Abrax also says Helios was merely his personal name for DM during construction. The quote does sound strange but ultimately it reinforces his further statement that Helios = DM while not explicitly contradicting anything above. In conclusion, it looks like DM was called Hyperion by extension, not directly. It's like calling a car "wheels", or income "bread", or a king "the crown". Helios was indirectly called Hyperion after it's most prominent component. Furthermore: - Enjou isn't credible or reliable enough to infer "the original official name" from his statements - maybe "a name" at best. - Hyperion is stated to be the sun, not the chariot, which is stated to be Helios. - There's no mentions of neither "engineers" nor "only" them and Abrax using the name Helios. - 白夜の光 is the JP translation of 白夜之光 from CN, in EN it's Byakuya no Hikari. If you use it then why don't you use the JP transliteration ハイペリオン for Hyperion? In any case the JP localization is irrelevant. And finally, the word Hyperion is used like twice in-game, one of those times was in a time-limited event too. Note that quest names are not truly in-game, they're only visible to the players in the UI and don't exist in Teyvat. On the other hand the word Helios is used dozens of times in-game to refer to DM and is immediately familiar to all players. But technically you're correct in the video since you're talking about the sun anyway.
Imagine going back ~2400 years in the past and showing this to Plato and telling him: "Yeah, this Billion-Dollar Waifu Gambling Game largely exists because of you."
This theory is really good because it actually explains why the Abyss is constantly going after the Ley Lines. If it can corrupt or destroy the perfect “Forms” then there will be nothing left for the Material World to repair itself with, since the concept it is based upon is eradicated.
you're genuinely becoming a theorist i actively seek out videos of, your theories and tin foil hat claims really hit the mark and make so much sense, they sound very well researched too. keep up the good work man!
They already kind of told us in the summer event that the three drafts of the toytown story got jumbled up together by the witch's cat. So the three realms of genshin got similarly partly merged together by a cosmic accident that we know nothing about yet.
I absolutely love how the Genshin devs are sneakily foreshadowing concepts through most of summer events! Most people think they're just fillers, but the thematic writing is genuinely brilliant.

Really appreciate the note regarding pale princess (: . Hopefully people weren’t too rude about it, but I’ve had to leave previous videos suddenly because im avoiding the pale princess info beyond what is in the game. I’ll definitely enjoy coming back to these theories once pale princess is finally let out of the lore basement… or will just have permanent clown makeup stuck to my face if it never gets added.
Its still weird bcz for childe it was dark pitch void for natlan it feels like an intelligent entity what if vedrfolnir is the one who is controlling the abyss by basically making hinself and abyss the one
Dainslief is the Skull Knight? "Fate is not a circle it’s a spiral" kinda sounds something that would fit Genshin Lore too. Btw. I have theory that the Traveler gets his "Ancestral Name" get's killed and brought back life, literally doing what they tried to do in Khaenriah to make Descenders, thus awakening the Traveler into true Descender status. "You have traversed the fire of two worlds within the hearth, and here you are reborn."
Godlike video good Sir. Admittedly some of the previous ones describing the Heavenly Halberd / Fischl and the Angel's Egg went a little bit over my head, but this one was pretty crystal clear due to both length and clarity of the comparisons.
Going here after watchin the mewest Ashikai video, damn I feel everything is connected, my brain is confused, but I feel it, I just feel it this theory and Ashikai are both connected, daayymmn
Been missing you and your stunning analysis, what a joy and intriguing concepts to consider and perhaps see play out! Thanks so much for your fantastic presentations, research, and connecting these ties in a more congruent and understandable way, I've come to enjoy playing Genshin far more with your informed conjectures and rationale, appreciate it and your amazing content!
I swear these theories are more educational than my uni courses were and I love it😭💜 Thank you for your hard work and for the great content! (Also, if u need help with research when Snezhnaya comes out, feel free to reach out, best regards, local slavic nerd)
Also we wont fight celestia they will add some anime type thingy making abyss the more evil and celestia the ok guys we might fught the sussytainer and primo god or the one who is impersonating the primogod
To spice things up out of nowhere, Now that we know Il Capitano's origin, it becomes more interesting to think about how his attire looks like certain green man's specialty. Especially when this man's teapot dialogue said something similar to that Dark Statuette item description,
I think it makes a lot of sense that the dragons who betrayed Nibelung for Phanes' plan became the gods we know today. As we all know, Teyvat's gods carry names of demons. Demons are fallen angels, and angels are dragons. Demons follow Lucifer, who was created by God, like Nibelung would have created Phanes. And Lucifer plotted against God, like how in this theory Phanes betrayed Nibelung.
I wonder; if the Abyss has a Dragon Sovereign King and the Abyss God is a Usurper that needs to be Destroyed to restore the Abyss to its former, less evil state?
Probably? Phanes probably only used up a portion of the Light Realm to carve out of the Human Realm, but the question is - Can the remaining portion of the Light Realm exist by itself, with having a portion of itself removed? Maybe it is somewhere still, tattered but overall intact, or maybe it decayed and fell apart once a piece of it was torn off... we have to wait and see.
Spoilers... Ronova is confirmed to be shade of death and she gave xbalanque dome of her power put in the gnosis but at the cost of death + capitano was trying to become the pyro archon and save natlan by using the gnosis thus sacrificing himself in the process and he's also sent by ronova , he's from khaneriah nd he's rotting nd cursed with immortality
The night Kingdom exist because Xuihcoatl burnt Natlan Ley Lines. The remaining seelie created the Night Realm via the single left leaf of Irminsul of Natlan (such as Frostbearer/ Windrise/ Sakura etc...) Here me out : Sumeru introduced in the Aranyaka questlines the Entity known as Marana. We fight multiples creatures Titled as "Marana's Avatars" ... I suspect Marana to be the Sumerian name for the entity who reigns supreme in the Abyss. Marana is sanskrit for Death. (Death by snake bite poison specifically 👀)... snake of the battle pass perhaps ? After all its fiting for a snake to have seduced the 5 sinners no ? Just like in the bible
I think so but i think this night kingdom is different its the natlan ley line nothing else but yeah a snake white snake.. seducing the 5 sinner makes a lot of sense i think it is the ruler...OR it is the embodiment of sin and greed is still doesnt make sense that when some ppl are affected they slowly die and some ppl who gets affected cant stop them going into abyss just wth is this.. sinner cant resist the call if abyss WHY? WHY? IS IT BCZ IT IS A SENTIENT BEING? OR IS IT THE CORRUPTION OR HECK MAYBE EVEN THE HONKAI OF HONKAI IMPACT JUST DIFFERENT SINCE BOTH EFFECTS ARE SAME
Either I'm too sleepy, or you're jumping all over the place. Either way, it feels too mythological and not quite on the level of fantasy with elements of sci-fi that is Genshin Impact. A bunch of random thoughts brought about by your video: * The Abyss probably isn't "rational", but "emotional". * It is likely that Phanes is from outside of Teyvat. Because the world he built is too well-suited to world travelers like Aether and Lumine. It could be that much of these things are built by Second Who Came and lesser people who accompanied them, but humans were already there, and they were just like humans elsewhere. * Of course the Night Kingdom is located where the ley lines are weak. When a dragon corrupted by the darkness of the Abyss burned the past Irminsul tree, it damaged the ley lines that were connected to it. And so, emergency repairs were in order. The repair patch? That's the Night Kingdom.
