    **NOTES & CORRECTIONS**
    - Tlaloc is actually the AZTEC EQUIVALENT for Chaac rather than an alternate name. The names are sometimes used interchangeably which isn't really correct. Sorry for the inadequate wording here.

      I get the feeling that the Traveler is going to acquire the pyro gnosis and become the new Pyro Archon, which is why we don't have access to the pyro abilities yet. It also gives us a reason to go to Snezhnaya and interact with the Tsaritsa as she tries to convince us to give her the last gnosis she needs in exchange for information on our Sibling or by convincing us her plan is the best one

    Worth noting: Mavuika DIED. When she “placed her life into the sacred flame” it burned away her original body. She came back bc presumably the previous archon before her current life revived her before dying themself. And bc all the archons following her likely have some of her memories, similar to how ancient name bearers have memories of past bearers. So the archon 500 years after she offed herself would know to revive her just in time. Also if she’s IN the sacred flame and not in the night kingdom, then she can be revived without her consciousness being washed away into the overall night kingdom.
    I say this bc she came back as a regular person and was selected as Archon again due to her great strength.
    Also this does indeed mean it may he possible to revive Xbalanque. If he did the same thing as Mavuika, then her plan might just be to revive him somehow. (Maybe to sacrifice the collective ancient names to give him enough power to defeat the abyss in the night kingdom once and for all. Bc all those ancient names carry a TON of memories, which translate to a ton of elemental energy.

      @RevanZim 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +21

Also there's a giant tree with all the information in the world. And an ensemble of different material and immaterial worlds somehow connected to each other and sometimes they switch.

      there's a pretty interesting similarity between real physics and this dual elemental energy-memory energy bit, which is that in physics matter and energy are basically interchangable. matter is more concentrated so you need more energy to make matter, but it makes kind of sense for memories to translate to physical elemental energy

Only after her death, he was born. Also werent ppl saying that pyro sovereign killed shade of death ? (One of shade of primodial). So pyro soverign is kinda strong. I wonder if nebuleng is dragon king of 7 dragons or if he was one of the 7 dragon who was powerful and others called him king. Hoyo need to clarify this.

      I feel like this doesn't make sense, because if the traveler can use all elements, why wouldn't he just be nibelung. There's a reason they have a dragon sovereign for each element, having someone that can master all of them just renders that concept as nonsensical, kind of. Unless the evil twin can't use them at all and the good twin is a human manifestation of nibelung.
      Nonetheless, I don't think this is true, a lot of characters and beings refer to us as being stars, and unless they are wrong there is no way of us being from teyvat

    • @amouramarie
      @amouramarie 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@suz1695 Maybe they could be Niebelung's children? That would fit with the whole "you were meant to inherit/rule this world" thing if they were the children of the dragon king of the world. And they could be both dragons and stars, I suppose. If the narwhal can be both a whale and a black hole, then a dragon could be both a dragon and a star. That would be an interesting parallel, with the narwhal's realm personifying the absence of light, and the creatures from the Light realm, the dragons, being the _source_ of light, aka stars. But I'm not convinced of the dragon theory myself.

    Something I've been thinking about is the fact that the Travelers were observed before arriving to Teyvat and that they might even arrived because people wished on them as stars... So maybe Lumine arriving to Natlan was one of the pieces of the plan and why the Archon had to travel 500 years forward, that besides the accumulation of memories of the 6 heroes. So when Mavuika told the traveler that she knows more about them that they can possibly anticipate, maybe she knows that Khaenria was observing them..... Or even she met the other sibling... There's a lot to unpack in this chapter of the story, and it fits since in the next phase in Sneznaya we are probably going to hear about the nature of the heavenly principles and the plan against them, knowing more about the abyss and the role of the twins in the story seem fitting... But who knows, theory-crafting is not my forte , I love it but I'm way to lazy to do all the work and sometimes I can anticipate stuff but it's like 50/50.

    I'm just stoked for what the Traveler gets as an ancient name because that's gonna be so telling for how the story will go. My personal hope is that it involves something like "weaving", "one who lays", "connection", or "founder" because that could indicate that Traveler could help achieve the same event that was attempted with the Loom of Fate, creating new leylines for Natlan. I think the construction of new leylines would be a good way to end the need for the Pyro Archon and use the stored memories of the Night Kingdom to give these unique shapes. Essentially, I'm hoping that the end result of Natlan takes inspiration from the Nazca Lines in the real world

    I really really really hope you address the fact that we haven’t seen any normal seelies in natlan but we saw one in the night kingdom! I think that’s really interesting and definitely has lore implications!!! My favorite interpretation was a theory on Reddit that the night kingdom is the real natlan and the natlan we are traveling through is the ley lines/a samsara/etc. this was also helped by the fact that we can see the celestial nail in the night kingdom but no where (not even an impact crater like the chasm) on the “surface”.

I speculate that the the first pyro archon defeated the dragon sovereign and was recognised by the Celestia and ascended to archonhood and died,then the dragon sovereign was reborn instead of the real xbalanque. I also think that the sacred flame is.Xbalanque trying to repel the abyss and he did that so he could use his power to repel the abyss and his people can become archon by using is power when neuvillete was teased it was written xbalanque - one entombed with the primal fire, so it can be speculated that xbalanque is the primal fire

    I don't think Chasca is the Flower Feather Clan Hero, because if she was then Mavuika wouldn't have told the group about the plan. Mavuika made it very clear that she does know who the heroes are, but she needs them to discover the true meaning of their name and their mission for themselves. If it was Chasca, Mavuika wouldn't have said anything or waited for when she wasn't present.
    I think it's going to be Ifa- the Saurian vet who has only been mentioned in NPC dialogue and the Natlan character's voice lines. He's explicitly stated to be from the Flower Feather Clan and at this point we know that a character has to be playable or plot important if multiple characters mention them. Unless they bring up someone else, it's likely going to be him.

      There's no certain way for Chasca to conclude that she's one of the heroes, thus I doubt it's an issue for Mavuika to talk about it infront of Chasca. That would only be possible if Chasca were to be the only ancient name bearer in her tribe, but we do know that there can be more than one ancient name bearers in each tribe.
      Mavuika doesn't specify that the hero of Flower-feather clan is Chasca, and the ambiguity of it should not harm the opportunity for Chasca to discover the meaning of her ancient name.

It just doesn't seem like a smart move to have Chasca even be aware that the plan exists, given how serious Mavuika takes having her people find their own inner flame.
      Of course I am open to being wrong and that Hoyo really is going to play this as straight as possible. I just am open to the possibility that they're going to throw in a few big twists in Natlan.
      PS: I was also going to consider the fact that Chasca's original tribe isn't known because she was raised in the wild for a majority of her formative years. But I don't think Natlan's lore would be so strict that blood will determine such a thing (in other words- if the Wayob recognize her as part of the Feather clan, then she is part of the Feather clan.)

  • @lmlagg
    @lmlagg 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Her talking about “thoughts can become things (and vice versa)” reminds me of two things: mass and energy being the same thing expressed different ways and Destiny 2’s plotline.
    In Destiny, light and dark were seen as two opposites. An objective good and an objective bad (more literally though we've come to find out that the Light has dominion over the physical world and creates things while the Darkness lives in mental space and can utilize memory). A few years ago they were finally recognized as two sides of the same coin. Necessary for balance. Under that context, it slowly stopped being taboo for people to use the powers of the darkness. The Final Shape was actually pretty focused on tearing down ALL barriers between the two. This came in the form of Prismatic. The Guardian can use not only the three elements of the light at the same time, but the current two of the dark as well (rather than being attuned to one of the 5 separately like the Traveler in Genshin is or how the Guardian is the rest of the time). Maybe we’ll see the Traveler using powers from the abyss at some point (maybe after the Cryo Archon shenanigans).
    This also raises the idea that there could be an abyss equivalent to the elemental powers. In Destiny the flavors of space magic interact with their own concepts from physics, the light can come in the form of Solar (fire/ energy), Arc (lighting/ electromagnetism), and Void (This is debatable but its usually cited as gravity). In contrast, you have the Darkness with (so far) Stasis (Ice/ a reduction in entropy) which runs opposite to solar in both color and function and Strand (taps into another layer of reality made of the the connections between all living things) which runs similarly to Arc (but opposite in color) as electrons are the fundamental particles of electromagnetism. Electrons are also elementary particles. Elementary particles are (theorized to be) made up of “strings” which is seen as string theory. This is funny given strand is represented by ropes and strings and a lot of verbs around it focus on “weaving” and “severing” things. The layer of reality revealed by it and which interact with to use strand is called the weave and everything.
    All of that is to say: Maybe we will see some abyss variants of the elements. The antiparticles to the particles of the physical elements. Every electron needs its positron right?

    Natlan is so different in just how it FUNCTIONS that combined with the complete lack of travellors or even really mention of it anywhere else in the world, this nation feels like its not in Teyvat at all in a way?
    Like, its not a secret that the Archon is a lineage of humans inheriting the legacy, so why did NOBODY bring it up when everything with Furina came out? It should be common knowledge everywhere in Teyvat bc plenty of tourists travel TO Natlan and that seems like a helluva thing to be able to tell everyone when you get home! Same with "most of their warriors know what death is like and are totally casual about it bc they just come back" and "it turns out there used to be dragons ruling the world and human civilisations functioned around them but theres no sign left anywhere but Natlan" and so on, its made this nation feel like its in some sort of pocket dimension where only people like Neuvilette and Furina can actually remember anything about Natlan bc of gnosis privilege or something, and to the rest of Teyvat Natlan...exists, and something stops them thinking any further than that
    I hope its intentional, like, there IS a consequence for them apparently not being properly connected to Irminsul (since they dont have proper Leylines aka Irminsul's roots, could that mean that the world's memory doesnt have a proper grasp of this nation and everyone in it, like a faulty version of Wanderer's situation?) and Hoyo is playing the long game, but even if it is it doesnt change the fact that the actual experience of playing the game leaves you weirdly jarred when you step out of Natlan and remember all the interconnected storytelling of Teyvat functioning as a whole instead of just isolated areas that makes it feel alive as a world. Its like Natlan is missing out on something crucial to the Genshin experience

    I feel like even though natlan is supposed to be inspired by civilizations around the ring of fire it is also somewhat inspired dy ancient Greece mualani going into the kingdom of the dead to rescue someone dear to her, kinda like Orpheus. That dragon with the name I won't bother with stealing the phlogiston and giving it to the humans is kinda like what prometheus. In general the focus on human heros and their exploits and how people in natlan prove their valor in the stadium which is designed kinda like an amphitheater

    Perhaps Bennett is an example of the consequences Natlandians face when leaving Natlan without help from the Wayob. He’s presumably from Natlan, he left Natlan with an outlander (who most likely didn’t consult the Wayob on his way out because he was literally dying), and Bennett has stated that he doesn’t really leave Mondstadt, so there is a chance that this bad luck is a result of Bennett’s “mirror self” still being in Natlan’s ley lines or the night kingdom.

    Thanks for this kind of content. I've finally madr sense of it now..understanding the sacred flame a little more.
    Kinich's story quest supports ehat you said because in the ritual part, we use the sacred flame to erase those abyssal blob things or whatever they are properly called. I juat did that story yesterday.

    the night kingdom is a mix between Xibalba, the Kong cosmogram and Patakatifu. Patakatifu can be linked to the stadium which is also a temple wonder if she'll she this 🤔

    Bad news, he have a companion who is a relic of an ancient time that caught Enjou's attention, and he want Kinich dead so he can take him over
    In story telling wise, it make Kinich goes to the "this is bad" character red flag tier, below the big 3: Albedo, Lisa and Childe

    I was watching your simulanka video as I started the archon quest and hearing you talk about how the traveler might be more of a ‘witness’ to the world’s events rather than the true hero while not getting to participate in the tournament was a really interesting overlap. I thought they were going to pull some black magic “able to control the phlogiston” or something to make them eligible so it was really satisfying to see that pan out.

    20:31 it depends if he was already dying it would be unlikely else he would only remain alive for a very short time. It worked for the current pyro archon because she was still young and had more life to live.

      @Kostek564 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      We might only speculate as in maybe he will be brought back by Mavuika by the Ode of Resurrection. You can also go and "dig" some more on your own on other sites, but until we get a confirmation, nothing is clear.

      Some leakers said his model in 5.1 is very NPC-ish, and the possibility of him being playable is extremely low

      @MNM2INC 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      just from a marketing standpoint probably zero considering mavuika is showcased as the 'archon' for natlan just like furina was for fontaine and nahida is for sumeru. Bringing back another pyro archon would be pointless and just downplay the current one. The pyro sovereign is more likely

    I don’t know how relevant this is for what Phlogiston is in the lore of Genshin, but a TH-cam channel called Chemistorian made a recent video about the history of the theory of Phlogiston and how it lead to the discovery of oxygen.

    5 minutes in and I have to stop because you really swung and missed. People of the Springs is a retelling of the hawaiian monarchy story. King Kamehameha united the many different hawaiian tribes into a sovereign kingdom. Also, all the names are hawaiian, although apparently the pronunciation key was not understood, so it's all severely mispronounced.
