As a nursing student and a Genshin Impact player for three years, I thank you for explaining the widened aspects of the game's lore. I cannot even play consistently because of academics. And watching your videos, especially during travel time or free time keeps me updated about the events and beauty of the lore. I am invested on the Genshin's story, ost, details and aesthetics. Thank you for incorporating those in your videos. Kudos!
Appreciate that! Glad to hear I’m helping but I can relate to you cause consistency in playing Genshin is also a problem for us. It’s only now that we managed to have some free time to play 😅
Samee I’m a nursing student too and academics really takes up most of my time specially now that I’m in my 4th yr and soon will graduate and is having a hard time following through genshin so thi Klementimes lore explanation helps better understand about the lore without being too stressed out also I listen to his vids whenever I do some school activities
I always watch him and other lore theorists while on my way for work. Its hard for us adults to find the time to read and enjoy every bits of lore in the game. So Im thankful that he exists.
I have to say that pre-Fontaine / Remurian lore is my favorite so far because; The use of Biblos mythos such as the Flood, Leviathan, Jesus. The power of symphony that is a reference to Musica Universalis. The Remurian Empire basically a whole reference about their creation, rise and fall. And finally, more lore about the Primordial One, Samsara cycles, the Shades and the dark reality about Visions.
This is one of the clearest videos on Remuria right now. Ancient Rome is really interesting for me so I'll love to hear more about it, and we might get more content focused on it once Petrichor arrives (which is said to contain ancient ruins, stone statues, and seals related to a certain trope).
Minor correction (and spoilers for 4.2): the claim gnoses were created from the remains of the vanquished Dragon Sovereigns is directly contradicted in Masquerade of the Guilty, both by Skirk (who states they are the remains of the third descender) and the fact the hydro gnosis still exists after the Hydro Archon's throne is destroyed (and its authority returned to the now reincarnated hydro sovereign).
the visualization is insanely well done thank you so much, i am very interested in fontaine lore yet im not yet used to check every single book and re-read it all the time to finally understand what exactly is going on
Thanks for watching, very glad you enjoyed it! I agree I also get confused with what’s new and what’s already outdated so I have to play constantly to get a better understanding
I freaking love ur genshin vids. Its sad everytime i try to search genshin lore or theory, ur vids are always never to be seen and hard to find buried by other creator vids that are much popular. I had to type ur channel name to find u. Its a miracle to be able to discover ur channel back then. Ashikai and u are my fav. I even introduced my genshin friends ur channel and they all loved how it is so much like a documentary and so well made and planned out and ur voice is great(and i know u always hear this but u sound like kazuha a lot). Thanks for making videos like this! You put so much effort and i, no we who watch ur channel appreciate it very much. You are the best genshin lore channel
Ashikai is where I go to for predictions and theories. You are who I go to for genshin lore in general. Keeps me calm and makes me believe I'm watching a high quality history vid. Keep doing what you do! ♥️🙏
Honorific mention for Ruggiero and Hauteclaire, who were originally part of the lore of Charlemagne and his 12 paladins. . Ruggiero was related to Bradamante (a female knight in service of Charlemagne). They were kind of "cursed" lovers destined to be apart no matter how much they seek each other. . And Hauteclaire was the sword of Olivier, one of Charlemagne's 12 paladins and Roland's best friend.
Watching this after playing the Canticles quest is soooooooo good!!! You are an absolute genius, thank you so much for taking the time to put together one of the best Genshin lore videos I've ever watched 🤩
I really love how interactive and creative your videos are. It feels like I'm watching an actual storyline summary from official Genshin channel. Thanks for this ❤️
I'm about to start the Remuria world quest, and I watched this amazing video plus SiliconOneFour's artifact videos to get ready for the lore bombs. Your videos are always great content but the quality of the visuals in this one is incredible, it feels like something out of history youtube with the siege animation. Thank you so much!
Didn't Skirk say that Gnoses were made from the remains of the 3rd Descender? What was actually assigned to the Gnoses was Dragon Sovereign Authority which I suppose is something different than their remains, because that authority was returned when the Hydro Throne was destroyed.
Indeed! However, I have to admit I made it more confusing to viewers from what I mentioned in the video. It should've been the mastery over the elements that were assigned to the Gnoses which allows the Archons to share some of their power to worthy individuals hence the vision-holders
@@KlemenTime Yep, but I think that is still also due to the 3rd Descender due to the natural properties of their body, which apparently Traveler also shares. (I seriously started fearing that some random Celestia God may want to chop us into pieces and turn us into magical trinkets next). Though I remember that Ashikai made a compelling case for Traveler having abilities similar in design to the Dragon Sovereign rather than the Archons, so there may be some dragon factor involved. Still, when it comes to Mastery, to me it's interchangeable with Authority. Furina's vision seems to confirm that the Authority plays the role in the division of power, considering the unique design.
I have a question at 1:39: didn't Skirk and Neuvillette's conversation reveal that the Gnoses were created out of the Third Descender's remains? I thought that the power of the Seven Dragon Sovereigns were instead within the divine thrones of the Archons, which was why Neuvillette was able to regain his powers back when Focalors ultimately destroyed the Hydro Archon's divine throne.
@@KlemenTimeI'm confused the vid said phanes used an amount of their remaining power and made 7 gnosis? So the gnosis are made by their power and the beings from outside teyvat?
@@excuseuEwtho i haven't reached that part yet, i think what it meant was that phanes used his power to create gnosis from the 3rd descender's remains
@@freakinstudent3430u have no clue what I asked and should've watched the vid, wat u mean u have not been in that part yet it isn't even past two mins
The way I see it, once the Primordial One took the 7 authorities, they assigned one of their Shades to create Egeria as the new heart of the primordial sea, replacing the previous ruling hydro dragon. Eventually humankind broke their covenant with Celestia and thus Fontaine was flooded. Either before or after this event (I believe it was after), the first Oceanid was born from one tear belonging to Egeria and later on, the Oceanids would ask to become human. That's when Egeria committed the original sin and became imprisoned. Eventually, Remus fled Sumeru and stumbled upon the ruins of the previous city. He received the prophecy from Sybylla and established Remuria. After a lot of Remurian drama, Remuria fell and Egeria is released from her prison and was given archon status, the hydro gnosis and rulership over Fontaine. She would eventually assign Focalors as her succesor and then die in the Kaenriah incident. After that, Focalors ascended, created the Furina persona and the rest is history. In my head the arrival of the second one who went to war with the primordial one must have happened during the establishment of remuria. This is because eventually they would join forces to create the 7 gnosis which then leads into Egeria receiving one. I dont see the archon war happening before Remuria.
I love your videos. I follow u so that I can keep up with Genshin lore. Genshin is great in world building but you'd have to dig deep and I simply have no time for that. Your videos help me appreciate Genshin lore so much. Thank you
Why was remuria cursed tho ? Like u said the prophecy says empire gets destroyed. I only knew about fontaine ppl sin (committed by egeria). What did remus commit ? That he had to wake up to sword sounds and his empire getting destroyed by erryneas ?
I had a hard time learning the Fontaine lore due to growing disinterest in the game. Thank you for providing such an unbiased and concise summary of the lore so far. I know the gnosis details are a bit off but that's fine. I prefer your videos on Teyvat history over any lore channel on this video, solely because of the fact that your focus is purely the game lore itself. What happened irl and the references used are irrelevant and I absolutely hate the channels that shoehorn theory based on irl lore.
What in the Kings and Generals/EpicHistoryTV inspired battle map is this?! Your videos are always great but the details of the battles in this style of simulation are a fantastic addition. As a long time fan of channels such as Kings and Generals, EpicHistoryTV and Invictus, this video felt like I just sat down to a video about Rome itself in their distinctive style which is felt further by the the inspiration of Remuria from Roman history and legend, especially the Roman Kingdom era.
I both love and hate the complexity of Genshin’s lore. It’s insanely deep, full of detail, and uses real history and locations in really creative ways, while maintaining a fictional presence. At the same time, it’s a rabbit hole that leads from one topic to another, always posing questions that exist because the game’s story is still ongoing. But that wealth of information and questions still keeps me invested because I know Genshin doesn’t just throw things at you for no reason. I can’t wait for the day when Genshin’s Teyvat story wraps up and all these details can be more tightly connected.
Love your storytelling. Just the right tone and pace. Btw, Remus was a Sumerian who fled his country after Red Sand King conquered his kingdom. This exile to another foreign land may be one of the reasons why he committed xenocide. There could ve been an inferiority complex behind his motive.
Sorry, I have noticed quite a few misleading moments and overreaching assumptions in the script that contravene my own understanding. I'll wait on the rest of Fontainan lore to build my own timeline but thanks for using Erinnyes lore, it really paints Remuria in quite a different light, dimming its prideful glory.
Aren't the Gnosis' the remains of the 3rd descender? So then they're not the remains of the 7 dragons. I think it's more likely the 3rd descender was like us and attuned to every element, and their death resulted in the creation of them. Or perhaps after the Archon war there were no Archons left, and the 3rd descender sacrificed themselves to make 7 new gnosis.
Was remus really deranged? He thought that by creating ichor and golemn bodies his people can choose their own fate. And golden ichor can be controlled by a symphony which was the Grand Symphony which remus controlled because the people dont know how to control their own destinies. but then the ichor or symphony was corrupted by people's wishes of killing the barbarians, which then created Phobos, algamation the people's wishes. Which also corrupted Boethius because he had Ichor. And Scylla was remus' friend. Remus wasnt half as bad like how this video make it out to be imo
Holy shit because of this video i am clearly understand now the history of fontaine.. i am not a native english speaker so the world quest makes me confuse >_< but this video gives me more understanding

I feel the same, there's so much dark lore and I'm ALL here for it!!
Omg!! Another nursing student who loves genshin, lore and everything in it 😭 i feel you!
If history-class was like this in school all the time then I would never want to miss it.
Agreed!
I have to say that pre-Fontaine / Remurian lore is my favorite so far because;

Indeed! It's adds a lot more to the main narrative of the game and it allows for more intriguing moments

This video gets a 10/10 for the editing and visuals alone lol
This vid clears a lot of things for me. And its so funny that Remus met up with Primordial One like wtf.
It's still a bold claim so far but that's what we thought with the details we read
Minor correction (and spoilers for 4.2): the claim gnoses were created from the remains of the vanquished Dragon Sovereigns is directly contradicted in Masquerade of the Guilty, both by Skirk (who states they are the remains of the third descender) and the fact the hydro gnosis still exists after the Hydro Archon's throne is destroyed (and its authority returned to the now reincarnated hydro sovereign).
I was about to write this.
Yeah, they’re made from the remains, and “imbued” with the dragon’s authorities
Watched this after playing the Canticles of Harmony Remuria world quest and suddenly everything makes a looooot of sense. Love the editing btw.
the visualization is insanely well done thank you so much, i am very interested in fontaine lore yet im not yet used to check every single book and re-read it all the time to finally understand what exactly is going on

Your video is always entertaining for me. And I just realised your voice sounds like EN Kazuha voice.
I really love how interactive and creative your videos are. It feels like I'm watching an actual storyline summary from official Genshin channel. Thanks for this ❤️
Who knows… maybe this is an actual cutscene from the game 🫣
I enjoyed watching this! Your voice is really suited to this kind of narrations
+ suscriber !
The editing and simplification of the lore is so good , not to mention the soothing kazuha’s like voice over ❤
A masterpiece dropped once more. I love your works! Thank you so much for making content like this ❤ You're doing a great job. Take care always!

Bruh this is like the broad strokes of the entire history and mystery of genshins lore in the first third. Incredible work!
I wonder if in 4.6 we'll see more references to remuria
Great vid!
Hopefully in the upcoming new town called Petrichor
I love always love lore vids and the animations in this are so good
Oh god this video’s quality has gone up so much compared to your previous ones, have to resubscribe after this. Much appreciated video!

Thank you!! Glad you loved it hehe 🤍🐶
Yess i was just looking for a remuria lore video and this popped up just now! Perfect
always love seeing an upload from you! thanks for the great work
It's a good day when Klemen uploaded new video, As always the video quality is top notch 🎉🔥
OH my soul, your videoes are so well made, good job! keep going!
This is beautiful! Thank you for summarizing this
loved this video! the shutter noise is slightly too loud though and was startling me every time x_x

Revisiting this in preparation for the new world quest!
Should I do it too
Watching this video after the Remuria map feels so surreal ..
I very appreciate you and your channel.
As much as I love Genshin lore, I cannot focus the whole voiceless quest :(
Fantastic video as always
Wow one of the best video on youtube
very detailed explanation of the lore, this is very useful for lazy gamers like me. definitely worth subscribing!

i really wanted to know more about this topic, you just heard my wishes :)
Poof your wish has been granted
Lets make a part 2 were we get all the details in the new quest...
Always love your work.. keep up
Love your storytelling. Just the right tone and pace.
Btw, Remus was a Sumerian who fled his country after Red Sand King conquered his kingdom. This exile to another foreign land may be one of the reasons why he committed xenocide. There could ve been an inferiority complex behind his motive.
Have you explored Remuria? The answer is provided.
looking forward to an update on this lore since it looks like there will be more Remuria lore in 4.6
now that the new quest about remuria has been droped when are you going to cover it lots of new lore about remuria and remus in it
I like the RTS animation of the fort
This is fantastic!
Thank you! Glad you loved it!
Sorry, I have noticed quite a few misleading moments and overreaching assumptions in the script that contravene my own understanding.

This was 3 months ago omg im so sorry i just saw 😭😭 good job making a video with what little info you had back then
If u didn't put the name of the game in the title I could fool a history buff lol
lmao
what happened to your sumeru videos with the timeline..?? I'm still waiting years later :(
Why are the side quests more detailed than the main story
Holy shit because of this video i am clearly understand now the history of fontaine.. i am not a native english speaker so the world quest makes me confuse >_< but this video gives me more understanding
tbf this is not solely from the world quest but a mix of artifacts and book lore
What happened to Remus in the end?
We Want Neuvillette Story of Origin
Sadly I didn't get him 😃
But I'll consider it...
I think remus came from sumeru and also was a godking like deshret
Pronunciation note: reh-VEARD for revered
Oops yeah my bad
Total war: Attila player detected. Man of culture.
We know more in 4.6
hello
Hey enjoy the video!
no
dont tell me what to do
Bathysmal Vishaps, listen to this!
