As someone who doesn't read artifact lores, it's just surprising to me that these characters have already been in the game since that update in Sumeru. And now I just finished the Narzissenkreuz quests. But why should I be surprised? They have the Thunderbird and Ruu story at 1.0 in the Thundering Artifact set.
You didn't mention the most intriguing part, Rene's prophesy in the fell dragon monocle. "The star-beasts shall drink the amniotic fluid of the world dry. A hundred years from then, all life on its surface shall be wiped away." "I will surely return to save all souls. Ten years, even a hundred years may pass, but I shall be reborn as a new universe."
thank you so much for this video! with all the allegories, censoring, and needing the notes to get the full picture, reading the artifact set was incredibly confusing and hard to understand. thank you for putting this together in a more understandable way! it's some pretty interesting lore, for sure.
What fascinated me about this set is, well, its name- *Nymph*. Fountaine seems to be a nation where 'Spring Fairies' or Nymphs, perhaps elemental creatures created by the Hydro Archon, are common folk like the Aranara or the Pari, alongside the Lochfolk OR... Are perhaps descendants of Seeles. No other land has really talked about fairies that are actual fairies- Nymphs are a type of water fairy or sprite, and is the name for what a 'Spring Fairy' is, so perhaps Rene was different because she was a Water Sprite, and thus was more easily corrupted by either Abyssal corruption, or corruption via pollution of the main water body she came out of since that's how Fairies can 'turn bad'. The thing is, that if by the off chance, it really turns out that Nymphs were to be descendants of Seeles and not elemental creatures by the Hydro Archon, if they were remnants of the accursed race... why would they be allowed to live in Fountaine, the city of Justice being watched over by Celestia?
yes it can be morever the seelies used to live in celestia and idk but it seems celestia is on top of fontaine..this might be the first nation who has suggested that it have a direct link to destroyed civilization i laos think that just like in sumeru there were big titan robos there might be some in fontaine too..also no other nation has trains, cameras and a newspaper publishing house except fontaine..this does tells fontaine is obviuosly very develpoed but also on how this develpoment might affect them..
Since you've made educated guesses on how the fontaine archon quest might go perhaps you can theorize on how Lyney and Lynette will influence it? We all know that characters that appear in the travail trailer have and will be important characters in their respective regions' story so i think speculating on how this duo would do should be a fun thought experiment atleast
If it wasnt for this video i would be so lost. Now i understand that some people from Fontaine ventured out to discover some type of resource that could produce infinite energy no matter what the cost is, like the Khanerians. Thanks
oh my archon I just found this video after I finished the melusine quest finding the enigmatic pages . Super excited to know more about this. Thank you for making amazing lore videos !
For those of you that played HI3/GGZ, and who've seen the leaks for focalors appearance... The current hydro archon appears to be the expy of Sin Mal, one of the girls in Cocolia's orphanage, and if so, then it's possible that these other characters; the director, vice director, or the sisters could be expys of the other girls in the orphanage too. This also makes the line about the director's assistant pretty interesting, bc if that assistant really was one of the above characters, then perhaps this is Seele's expy, who we know that in all three of the other Hoyo games she appears in, she finds herself stuck at the bottom of some underground area. Maybe this could also make Seele the Hydro Archon, or the Director, or both, since Khaenri'ah's also underground and the abyss has been compared to the sea of quanta before, but if any of this is true at all in the first place, then personally i believe Bronya would be the hydro archon/director, Seele/Veliona would be the vice director, the sisters would be the Olenyevas, and Sin Mal is the current, surviving archon.
@@internetontheperson7550 I still believe most of what I said about the rest of the Orphanage, which mind you while it has some ground to stand on is still mostly headcanon, but now that I got a better look at Focalors it is extremely clear she's Sin Mal's expy. I'm just hoping that all the other stuff about the rest of the Orphanage is true.
Watching this video after completing the main Fontaine world quests makes it so much clear now. Rene could be an Oceanid just like Mary Ann and Jakob actually even appears in one of them as an abyss herald which could give us a hint of their end, its cool to see when and why did the institute of natural sciences started to investigate the abyss and I wonder if we will see even more of them (and what happened) in the upcoming 4.X versions, since we were kinda left in a cliffhanger\incomplete ending
oh i’ve fully convinced myself that the “heroes tea party” lore is related to alice and the “mages tea party” it’s totally describing the mad tea party scene from alice in wonderland!! rhinedottir = director = mad hatter barbeloth = vice director = mad hare ooo im gonna fully flesh this out im hype
For me the Director is The previous hydro archon. As for the vice director ? Please enlight me if im wrong but didnt the set says that she fall in a deep slumber in the ocean !?? She didnt made it to Khaenri'ha like the Director did. As for The princess in the tower that was recued by the director and brought back to Fontaine is somewhat a good candidate to be Focalors ??!! But rescued from what ? Who? Where ? Is there a possibility that Focalors is Khaenri'han ? Idk This set made it seems like Fontaine and Khaenri'ha are deeply linked. The one who thought of creating à Kingdom of machines it can either be Fontaine or Khaenri'ha, if its the later that means the founder of Khaenri'ha was Fontainois The two nations are about innovations and progress anyway so it can be either I really loved this video, u did a great job, it helped me to better understand what is incoming
This was really really Helpful.. it was confusing with all the allegories and such.. thank you !! Btw... Are you playing Honkai Star rail? Will you be covering it's Lore?
Is this Jakob the same one we meet in Fontaine during the Melusine Quest? Seems like it since he has abyssal powers but is not a member of the abyss order. Then maybe Rene and Alain are still alive and those 3 are responsible for the whole Ousia-Pneuma thing. The real question is why would Jakob want to revive Elynas since he should know about the beast destructive power, weren`t they supposed to "stop the disaster" perhaps referring to the prophecy? Guess will find out in 4.1 can`t wait for your take on it.
I have a speculation to discuss.. what if the entire khaenriah was this big that it could be equal to the entire teyvat ? If we see teyvat we'll find that wherever there's an underground area (serai or tsurumi or even chasm ) we find more of ruin machines so what if ? The khaenriahns tried to come up on the surface but they didn't reach surface instead of that they made small camps and stuff ? Btw love your content and I'd love more videos about dainslief khaenriah King ermin and everything related to the destroyed Kingdom hehe
Mmmmm, i have a feeling that the old hydro archon is prob an expy of seele/ is based on her So maybe the director is the hydro archon(seele), vice director is veliona ( or the genshin version of her) , and the princess is focalors? Just a theory tho sksksk

Recently finished all the quest narzissenkreuz ordo. Truly amazing lore.

God this info hits way different after that world quest in Fontaine

I do have a video on Fontaine characters in the plans, so I'll definitely be going in depth on Lyney and Lynette!
@@SiliconOneFour yay
If it wasnt for this video i would be so lost. Now i understand that some people from Fontaine ventured out to discover some type of resource that could produce infinite energy no matter what the cost is, like the Khanerians.
Thanks
Your thesis was point on! Good job dude. Subbed.
thanks for the succint info dude
i didnt learn crap from the last section of sumeru and your vids help to piece a lot together

im sure that fontaine have a another big lore good video
oh i’ve fully convinced myself that the “heroes tea party” lore is related to alice and the “mages tea party”
it’s totally describing the mad tea party scene from alice in wonderland!!
rhinedottir = director = mad hatter
barbeloth = vice director = mad hare
ooo im gonna fully flesh this out im hype
Oh, heck yeah! I love these videos
For me the Director is The previous hydro archon.
As for the vice director ? Please enlight me if im wrong but didnt the set says that she fall in a deep slumber in the ocean !?? She didnt made it to Khaenri'ha like the Director did.

I really loved this video, u did a great job, it helped me to better understand what is incoming
I think Pure Director mean God herself
amazing video!
This was really really Helpful.. it was confusing with all the allegories and such.. thank you !!
Btw... Are you playing Honkai Star rail? Will you be covering it's Lore?
Yes I will be!
@@SiliconOneFour Oh Wow Great ❤️❤️❤️ Looking forward to it 💯
But Take your time and Remember to Take care of yourself ❤️ Love your Content 🔥
Hmm...yep still my favorite artifact set. ❤😊
Unrelated to the lore but God damn my luck with this set is so good i have 4 pieces all with cr, cd and good rolls (hydro goblet) just need a circlet
Is this Jakob the same one we meet in Fontaine during the Melusine Quest? Seems like it since he has abyssal powers but is not a member of the abyss order. Then maybe Rene and Alain are still alive and those 3 are responsible for the whole Ousia-Pneuma thing.

Yes they are one and the same! I've been doing all the quests and I'm really excited to cover this lore!
How about a video regarding the notes we find while we go down to khaenriah door ?
I may touch on those in future videos about Khaenri'ah, yeah!
I have a speculation to discuss.. what if the entire khaenriah was this big that it could be equal to the entire teyvat ? If we see teyvat we'll find that wherever there's an underground area (serai or tsurumi or even chasm ) we find more of ruin machines so what if ?

Mmmmm, i have a feeling that the old hydro archon is prob an expy of seele/ is based on her
So maybe the director is the hydro archon(seele), vice director is veliona ( or the genshin version of her) , and the princess is focalors?
Just a theory tho sksksk
I love your videos😊😊
So this Elaine could either be Sandrone or Focalors even.....
It's Alain, not Elaine. We already know who he is, Alain Guillotin, founder of the Fontaine Research Institute like I said.
@@SiliconOneFour oops sorry and thanks
Maybe she’s still alive 🤔
Isn’t celestia currently hovering around the fontain vicinity
I originally thought so, but it seems to be more over where Chenyu Vale will be.
You sound like a Genshin TH-camr named Vars ii.
The voice is similar. Are you two the same person???
Nope, we're not the same
oh my god he was kinda right
