Why does Kaeya not look *that* much surprised about him being a descendant of Abyss Order’s founder? His voice totally sounds like he’s acting.. Also, dainsleif says us that Kaeya is still not trustable for *him* . He also leaves immediately after the conversation of him being a descendent of Founder of Abyss Order starts
Calm down. Not everyone is going to show how shocked they are when they hear something like that. People do know how to control their reactions and not make a show by freaking out.
"This is your chance. You are our last hope." This line from his father still haunts me and I can't wait for the day where they reveal the true meaning behind it
I personally think Kaeya doesn’t actually care if his secrets are revealed. I think he just likes messing with people and making it seem like a huge deal because he’s mischievous. 😂
If he didn't care about his secrets he would tell Varka truth about his dad instead of making up a story. Bonus it's not just Kaeya making a huge deal of it. He's not calling himself the last hope, it's written in his story and I doubt Kaeya messing with people would get him a whole cryo vision because he just wanted to "mess" with Diluc.
Kaeya never said no that he wasn't affiliated with the Abyss order. All he did was asked the traveler if they think he is. Kaeya was very particular about his wording. Also when asked if he knows anything about Khaenri'ah he said not really. But then identifies Dain as pure blooded.

Well, there are people who are fiddling through youtube to see an early archon quest video. I mean I wouldn’t be one since I’d already be awake by the time it’s here
Dain and Kaeya are too in sync for it to be a coincidence. There have been characters that have said Alberich before, but these two are the only ones who pronounce the “ich” that way. And it’s weird that Dain ordered a Death Afternoon and called the waiter “boss”. Obviously it’s his favorite drink, but Kaeya has referred to people as boss in his voice lines. To my knowledge, there’s not a lot of people in game who use that without referring to actual seniority But this could literally all be a thing of the English dub, so take it with a grain of salt haha
I think Kaeya is trying to find allies. He's very reclusive and for good reason. I believe he plans to take back his homeland and dismantle the abyss but needs the Traveler's help; and he's slowly picking his team. I'm excited to see how it all plays out, especially with finding the other twin.
Guys we can find Kaeya after this in port ormos , beside Rama spice stand! He doesnt talk about anything related to all this tho... Although i didn't find him there after the quest ended. So maybe it was just till then..
@@blattsee6095 So I don't remember exactly, but apparently he just finished his talk with the spice merchant and then he asks us to join him for another drink in the tavern, to talk about last year's windblume fest.. Then apparently he assumes we are 'busy as always' and tells us to come meet him at Angel's Share the next time we visit mondstadt. Feel free to tell me if there was smth more that I forgot!
All these comments in here are so freaking cool. There is so much more behind Kaeya, it's so fascinating. I LOVED KAEYA FROM THE START 🫶 I'm so happy we're getting more juicy lore for him and Khanreia'h. ONE STEP CLOSER TO FINDING OUT MORE ABOUT OUR SIBLING 💞💞
(3.5 archon quest spoilers) I'm still trying to wrap my head around this. . . So if Kaeya is a descendent of Clothor, and Clothor's son wasn't a pure blooded Khaenriahn, but I'm assuming Kaeya is since he's human. . . Is he the descendant of Clothor and a Khaenriahn woman?
@@GoldKoi18 If he's not pure blood (which this interaction did imply) then why did he not turn into a monster? Is it because he was born after the cataclysm?
My understanding, since Caribert is *illegitimate* ...that there must have been a *legitimate* son as well. Perhaps Clothor was married when he met the Mondstadt woman?
Well, this confirms something most people mistook : Kaeya is a descendant of someone from Khaenri'ah, not directly from Khaenri'ah. Because pure-blood Khaenri'ahns have the same eye color Dain has, while Kaeya has a more different color. Maybe his father got together with someone who hailed from Mondstadt?
I mean I get your point but, if his father is Khaenri'ahn it makes Kaeya a "descendant of someone from Khaenri'ah", no matter how you look at it, even if he's not a "pureblood". He's called a descendant of the founder of the abyss order so I think it speaks for itself..
@@claudiacloud9862 Yeah but the thing is that, people overestimate Kaeya way too much. Sure he's a descendant of the one that formed the abyss order, but it doesn't mean he also wields abyssal powers.
@@claudiacloud9862 Yeah, I've seen people overestimate him a lot, which is why I'm glad Hoyoverse clarified he's only a descendant, not directly from the abyss or Khaenri'ah
I think Kaeya’s dad is a pure blooded Khaenri’ahn and he had a child with a Teyvatian (possibly from Sumeru) resulting in Kaeya being half-Khaenri’ahn. Kaeya says ‘i recognise your eyes, you’re a pure blooded Khaenri’ahn aren’t you?’ So for him to distinguish between pure blooded Khaenri’ahns he must have known one I.e his own dad.
This doesn't surprise me at all, we already knew he was from khanreiah, and all the abysslings are mutated khanreians. His abilities and outfit are modeled after a cryo abyss mage for crying out loud.
That isn 't the surprising part. This could mean that Caribet is Kaeya's Ancestor. Which is HUGE NEWS. This means Dainsleif is wrong. Unless some women had a baby with a Hilachurl, Caribet has been cured from the curse. ALSO Clothor has died as well, who was suppose to be immortal.
@@King_Jockey yes he is. If you are wondering this means a Noble had a child with a commoner. That is ehy it is illegitimate. It isn't allowed. This means Kaeya isn't a pure blood like we thought.
@@yannlee7821 you misunderstand if kaeya wasn't pureblood khanreian, he would be a monster. Only the the pureblood khanreians stayed human. Chlother had a illegitimate child (a Child born out of wedlock) "Caribert". It's not too far fetched to think he had a legitimate child as well that carried the bloodline.
Paimon: Kaeya, you're not involved with the Abyss Order, are you? Kaeya: Do I look like the kind of person who'd do that just because of his ancestors? Anyway, I've got Sudden, Important Business to attend to elsewhere, so I'll be going now... Me: that doESN'T ANSWER THE QUESTION--
Dain x kae in fanfics: Dain: my prince, i miss you so much... Kae: i miss you too my royal knight... Dain x kae in game: Dain: are you a bad guy? Kae: of course not. See you around Dain: ok bye Dain: i don't trust him... Lol 😆
Ok with them in the same place did anyone notice this? There is a difference between kaeya’s eyes and dainsleif’s. Look closer. Kaeya has the pupil filled in. Dainsleif has the star shape but not filled in. Thats the difference between pure and (for lack of better word) non-pure khaenriahns. But woah this quest had a lore bomb haha. Though slightly disappointed kaeya didn’t stick around for long. I wonder how he’s taking the news (that he is the descendant of the abyss order’s founder) And to ppl calling kaeya a sussy liar, think before speaking because you obviously don't know his past lore. Kaeya has been hurt and abandoned time and time again, first by his birth father, 2nd when Crepus died (he was like a 2nd father to kaeya), and 3rd when Diluc tried to murder him for 'lying' to him even though kaeya was a kid who had no clue who could help him. He has no reason to trust anyone completely. He bottles up his feelings and refuses to let them out with ppl he doesn't trust (those kind of ppl exist even irl, I'm one of them which is why I understand him). His entire personality is literally a mask to hide how mentally broken he actually is. And yet no one calls out Dain for being a sussy liar, especially since he knew traveller's sibling yet never told us till we actually met the sibling for the first time
Just finished the quest. As usual, there are more questions than answers. Dane and Kaeya's dialogue was good) But why so little, HoYo? ☹️ Really hope this was a prelude and we’ll be given the continuation of the Archons quest when another part of the desert is opened. Otherwise it's a shame! So many hopes and expectations... 😩 P.S. I also want one of the Archons to finally explain why the hell they treated Khaenri'ah so cruelly?? Seriously, a little more and I’ll cross over to the side of the Abyss!
Hold up hold up! Dainsleff said Kaeya was a descendant of the Abyss Order's founder ( 5:06 ). Now go to 7:39 where Dainsleff recalls the Abyss call Lumine their Princess. Straight after, it sounds like Paimon is saying Lumine is the founder; that would mean Kaeya is a descendant of hers, as Nahida stated she is from Kaenri'ah. If there is time travel in this game, then my "drunk theory" (because it sounds like those theories drunkards come up with) might actually make sense just because I misheard something Paimon said. I know that Lumine is the founder's successor and not the actual founder, but it just sounded funny when I misheard it. But yeah, imagine the twins are related to Kaeya.
Ok but am I the only one that thinks Keaya could be Caribet? Like it makes sense! 1. He’s khanrian 2. We never see what happened to Caribet after he spontaneously combusted into dark energy 3. Keaya mad sus 4. He was dropped off as a child the same age Caribet was when he was a Hilichurl 5. Keaya has to make a decision that will impact his and everyone else’s fate, one could say he’s intertwined with fate…perhaps the loom of fate? 6. We haven’t heard of his past before the Ragnvinders took him in 7. If your saying he can’t be because he can grow, I’ll ask you this, Teyvat has all kinda magic and bullshit like Faruzan who was trapped in time for 100 years so it’s likely Keaya could’ve been trapped in time until the time was right since he himself didn’t have the curse of immortality 8. Keaya isn’t pure blooded, I can’t imagine any Khanrian wanting to procreate after everything that happened, it’s not even confirmed whether they can procreate or not 9. Keaya deflects hard when Paimon asks if he’s with the abyss or not 10. Perhaps the largest bit of evidence, Keaya is a descendent of the Abyss founder, He’s a mix blooded khanrian with the name Alberich who also just so happen to be dropped off in the same city Caribets mother was from, his birth father is M.I.A Dainsleif suffers from erosion so even if Dain did know what he looked like he looked younger and Dain can’t remember
I feel like they changed kaeya's lore in manga and in game because if you pay close attention to kaeya's star pupils in the manga their the same as dainslief's
Might I just say that I think that kaeya's half khaenri'ahn (and mb half sumerian cuz daz the only nation where we've seen characters with that tone of skin color I mean like the shading and vibrantness of the skin color palette) cuz his star shaped pupils are smaller than the ones of dain and pierro (just a theory though :) )
But that phrase is an obvious evasion, when he says “I'm a Mondstadt man and I'm not used to that” he's lying because Kaeya likes serious battles, he's the kind of guy who talks a lot with his tongue and knows how to entice with his speeches so that people tell him what he needs. Also here.
@@liricachan6820 agreed, its just abt time his fate catch up and he needa pick khaen or mondst also to be clear he may accepted mondst as part as him, basedon his skin vision but that vision still has khaenria star. so he's still clung to that part of his past too. i mean..when ur home was destroyed. who wouldnt will to get it back? recent irl event made me think of it deeper
I think he'll most likely become some sort of antihero rather than straight up betraying teyvat (he's greatly indebted to the ragnvindrs and mondstadt after all), although i feel like there'll be some misunderstanding or worse, hatred from the people of mondstadt as he reveals his nature...
Kaeya is the same dude who has reveal he a spy to Diluc long ago, and he doesn't even hiding that from everyone. So he won't going to betray anyone soon. Of course, unless he got forced to
Lol definitely. I was so surprised that it just ended there. I guess with how long the Sumeru quests were, I’m just not used to the length. Even so, I don’t think even We Will Be Reunited was this short
did I miss something on a previous quest? why was Kaeya so casual when talking about khaenri'ah? apart from his usual snarky(?) attitude, him just mentioning it out of nowhere caught me off guard
WHY Dain ordered the same drink as Kaeya's favorit drink - "Death After noon?" Was Dain following Kaeya? Otherwise, why did he order this drink, and it is also Kaeya's favorite drink, which he always orders at the Angels' Share bar
So what they're saying is that there's a 'King' of the abyss order rn, of whom Kaeya is a descendent of? Or even if there's no king, Kaeya is technically 'next in line for the throne' by birthright?? Barring the twin ofc. Aint no way mhy isnt cooking something with Kaeya in the end man. Can't wait to see his story unfold. I have been literally waiting to know his backstory since I started playing two years ago.
Am I the only stupid one who mispronounced Kaeya's last name? I thought it was pronounced Al-bur-rich. I wasn't even paying attention to the conversation, I was too shocked when I realized I've been saying his name wrong the entire time
Yeah that shit was weird. Extremely weird. Rukadevatha (or however it is spelled the dendro archon before kusanali) do not go to kaenriah cause she stay in sumeru to protect irminsul, so how kaenriah is under sumeru? it makes no sense.
For myself, I explained it in such a way that Kaeya read false information in the book. You know, like in the stories with Atlantis there are many hypotheses where it could be. It might be the same here. The author of the book suggested that Kaenriah was under Sumeru for some reasons.
Just leveled up my Kaeya to level 60 (I just started playing a month ago). Haven't gotten his constellation yet but he is by far the most interesting playable character in the story.

nope. i was looking for a playthrough. thanks to this I can see it now. makes sense he'd play it.
I DONT NEED TO ENJOY THE WEATHER, I NEED ANSWERS
@@unaythedreamer137 just play it yourself then. Why do u need a UA-cam vid to describe it to u?
R u perhaps mobile less?
@@Silly_Illidan why are you so mad for nothing?
Dain and Kaeya are too in sync for it to be a coincidence. There have been characters that have said Alberich before, but these two are the only ones who pronounce the “ich” that way.
And it’s weird that Dain ordered a Death Afternoon and called the waiter “boss”. Obviously it’s his favorite drink, but Kaeya has referred to people as boss in his voice lines. To my knowledge, there’s not a lot of people in game who use that without referring to actual seniority
But this could literally all be a thing of the English dub, so take it with a grain of salt haha
kaeya should be a 5star
True words were spoken here
I would even say that he can qualify for 6. The descendant of the founder of the Abyss is a serious statement
Agreed to much lore for a 4*
I think Kaeya is trying to find allies. He's very reclusive and for good reason. I believe he plans to take back his homeland and dismantle the abyss but needs the Traveler's help; and he's slowly picking his team. I'm excited to see how it all plays out, especially with finding the other twin.
Paimon: You're not involved in the abyss order are you?
Keaya: nope(I'm their prince)
No, he isn't a prince. There isn't one drop of royal blood in him
@@madeliefynanaHe's a Lineal descendant of the Marshal Knight Regent Anfortas Alberich.
@@Sanzumori78 Yeah, but that doesn't make him royalty or directly related to King Irmin, who was the ruling king of Khaenri'ah
@@madeliefynana What of Alberich's actions and principles do?
the traveler's face when they saw dainsleif was priceless like :
"Ayo where do you come from"
you know the story is going to be great when theres dain involvement
BEEN WAITING SO LONG ITS FINALLY HERE???!!!!
And to this day Dain is still waiting for his drink.
I just noticed Kaeya, Dain & Pierro all have mask/ eye patch on their right sided of their faces. So Kaeya actually got some part of the curse too!!?
Either his eye is cursed, or it was his mark from diwuc fight back then.
Guys we can find Kaeya after this in port ormos , beside Rama spice stand!
He doesnt talk about anything related to all this tho...
Although i didn't find him there after the quest ended. So maybe it was just till then..
Ahhh shiiittt
WHAT IS HE SAYING THERE??
Fffff... I missed this part! 😫
@@blattsee6095 So I don't remember exactly, but apparently he just finished his talk with the spice merchant and then he asks us to join him for another drink in the tavern, to talk about last year's windblume fest..
Then apparently he assumes we are 'busy as always' and tells us to come meet him at Angel's Share the next time we visit mondstadt.
Feel free to tell me if there was smth more that I forgot!
@@victornikiforov1792 Okay thxx!!!
I would really love to know what he wants to tell us...like about the Windblume festival...hmm
All these comments in here are so freaking cool. There is so much more behind Kaeya, it's so fascinating. I LOVED KAEYA FROM THE START 🫶 I'm so happy we're getting more juicy lore for him and Khanreia'h. ONE STEP CLOSER TO FINDING OUT MORE ABOUT OUR SIBLING 💞💞
(3.5 archon quest spoilers)
I'm still trying to wrap my head around this. . . So if Kaeya is a descendent of Clothor, and Clothor's son wasn't a pure blooded Khaenriahn, but I'm assuming Kaeya is since he's human. . . Is he the descendant of Clothor and a Khaenriahn woman?
That would make him pure blood he would probably have a mother who is not originally from khanenriah
@@GoldKoi18 If he's not pure blood (which this interaction did imply) then why did he not turn into a monster? Is it because he was born after the cataclysm?
My understanding, since Caribert is *illegitimate* ...that there must have been a *legitimate* son as well. Perhaps Clothor was married when he met the Mondstadt woman?
Bruh I'm such an idiot, how did I not piece together that Caribert is Kaeya's ancestor lmao.
After death caribert He knows how to turn a hilicurl into a human, because he also knows how to remove his immortality curse
Kaeya: The Knights sent me to an errand regarding wine.
Me: Why dafuq you lyin’, why you always lyin’ 😂
Uhm oh my god’ stop fucking lyin’
Well, this confirms something most people mistook :
Kaeya is a descendant of someone from Khaenri'ah, not directly from Khaenri'ah. Because pure-blood Khaenri'ahns have the same eye color Dain has, while Kaeya has a more different color. Maybe his father got together with someone who hailed from Mondstadt?
I mean I get your point but, if his father is Khaenri'ahn it makes Kaeya a "descendant of someone from Khaenri'ah", no matter how you look at it, even if he's not a "pureblood". He's called a descendant of the founder of the abyss order so I think it speaks for itself..
@@claudiacloud9862 Yeah but the thing is that, people overestimate Kaeya way too much. Sure he's a descendant of the one that formed the abyss order, but it doesn't mean he also wields abyssal powers.
@@X_n0 Never said he does, you never mentioned abyssal powers in your original comment so I didn't know that's what you mean.
@@claudiacloud9862 Yeah, I've seen people overestimate him a lot, which is why I'm glad Hoyoverse clarified he's only a descendant, not directly from the abyss or Khaenri'ah
I think Kaeya’s dad is a pure blooded Khaenri’ahn and he had a child with a Teyvatian (possibly from Sumeru) resulting in Kaeya being half-Khaenri’ahn.
Kaeya says ‘i recognise your eyes, you’re a pure blooded Khaenri’ahn aren’t you?’ So for him to distinguish between pure blooded Khaenri’ahns he must have known one I.e his own dad.
KAEYA!!!! MARRY ME!! HAND IN MARRIAGE, I SHALL SAY MY VOWS INCASE OF A PAIMON FOOD EMERGENCY
I honestly screamed "DAINSLEIF JUMPSCARE?" when played😭😭😭😭
Dain's voice ... oh my ... soothing to my ears. Then Kaeya's too. Ohh 😊
This doesn't surprise me at all, we already knew he was from khanreiah, and all the abysslings are mutated khanreians. His abilities and outfit are modeled after a cryo abyss mage for crying out loud.
That isn 't the surprising part. This could mean that Caribet is Kaeya's Ancestor. Which is HUGE NEWS. This means Dainsleif is wrong. Unless some women had a baby with a Hilachurl, Caribet has been cured from the curse. ALSO Clothor has died as well, who was suppose to be immortal.
@@yannlee7821 isn't caribet an illegitimate child?
So that's why it's so ugly
@@King_Jockey yes he is. If you are wondering this means a Noble had a child with a commoner. That is ehy it is illegitimate. It isn't allowed. This means Kaeya isn't a pure blood like we thought.
@@yannlee7821 you misunderstand if kaeya wasn't pureblood khanreian, he would be a monster. Only the the pureblood khanreians stayed human. Chlother had a illegitimate child (a Child born out of wedlock) "Caribert". It's not too far fetched to think he had a legitimate child as well that carried the bloodline.
Paimon: Kaeya, you're not involved with the Abyss Order, are you?
Kaeya: Do I look like the kind of person who'd do that just because of his ancestors? Anyway, I've got Sudden, Important Business to attend to elsewhere, so I'll be going now...
Me: that doESN'T ANSWER THE QUESTION--
The real ones knew since the hidden strife event tbh
The real ones knew when they read his story in character screen*
I love how kaeya literally doesn’t care he’s a descendant of the abyss order 💀💀💀
Kaeya's voice sounds so sus for no reason
This is the best part in the 3.5 Archon quest, Kaeya and Dainsleif interaction, the rest are skipable.
Tf??
Dain x kae in fanfics:
Dain: my prince, i miss you so much...
Kae: i miss you too my royal knight...
Dain x kae in game:
Dain: are you a bad guy?
Kae: of course not. See you around
Dain: ok bye
Dain: i don't trust him...
Lol 😆
I like the game Version way better... *gives kaeya a death stare*
I remember those.
@@AnCatalyst kaeya gives a flirt stare
Eventual dain x kae? Lol xD
@@brillywinsen6526 id rather see Dain x single Life xD
@@AnCatalyst lolol xD
Kaeya being kaeya saying bullshit :
they added new lines in for kaeya around 4:05
Ok with them in the same place did anyone notice this?
There is a difference between kaeya’s eyes and dainsleif’s. Look closer. Kaeya has the pupil filled in. Dainsleif has the star shape but not filled in. Thats the difference between pure and (for lack of better word) non-pure khaenriahns.
But woah this quest had a lore bomb haha. Though slightly disappointed kaeya didn’t stick around for long. I wonder how he’s taking the news (that he is the descendant of the abyss order’s founder)
And to ppl calling kaeya a sussy liar, think before speaking because you obviously don't know his past lore. Kaeya has been hurt and abandoned time and time again, first by his birth father, 2nd when Crepus died (he was like a 2nd father to kaeya), and 3rd when Diluc tried to murder him for 'lying' to him even though kaeya was a kid who had no clue who could help him.
He has no reason to trust anyone completely. He bottles up his feelings and refuses to let them out with ppl he doesn't trust (those kind of ppl exist even irl, I'm one of them which is why I understand him). His entire personality is literally a mask to hide how mentally broken he actually is.
And yet no one calls out Dain for being a sussy liar, especially since he knew traveller's sibling yet never told us till we actually met the sibling for the first time
Just finished the quest. As usual, there are more questions than answers. Dane and Kaeya's dialogue was good) But why so little, HoYo? ☹️ Really hope this was a prelude and we’ll be given the continuation of the Archons quest when another part of the desert is opened. Otherwise it's a shame! So many hopes and expectations... 😩
P.S. I also want one of the Archons to finally explain why the hell they treated Khaenri'ah so cruelly?? Seriously, a little more and I’ll cross over to the side of the Abyss!
Hold up hold up! Dainsleff said Kaeya was a descendant of the Abyss Order's founder ( 5:06 ). Now go to 7:39 where Dainsleff recalls the Abyss call Lumine their Princess. Straight after, it sounds like Paimon is saying Lumine is the founder; that would mean Kaeya is a descendant of hers, as Nahida stated she is from Kaenri'ah. If there is time travel in this game, then my "drunk theory" (because it sounds like those theories drunkards come up with) might actually make sense just because I misheard something Paimon said.
I know that Lumine is the founder's successor and not the actual founder, but it just sounded funny when I misheard it. But yeah, imagine the twins are related to Kaeya.
Ok but am I the only one that thinks Keaya could be Caribet? Like it makes sense!
1. He’s khanrian
2. We never see what happened to Caribet after he spontaneously combusted into dark energy
3. Keaya mad sus
4. He was dropped off as a child the same age Caribet was when he was a Hilichurl
5. Keaya has to make a decision that will impact his and everyone else’s fate, one could say he’s intertwined with fate…perhaps the loom of fate?
6. We haven’t heard of his past before the Ragnvinders took him in
7. If your saying he can’t be because he can grow, I’ll ask you this, Teyvat has all kinda magic and bullshit like Faruzan who was trapped in time for 100 years so it’s likely Keaya could’ve been trapped in time until the time was right since he himself didn’t have the curse of immortality
8. Keaya isn’t pure blooded, I can’t imagine any Khanrian wanting to procreate after everything that happened, it’s not even confirmed whether they can procreate or not
9. Keaya deflects hard when Paimon asks if he’s with the abyss or not
10. Perhaps the largest bit of evidence, Keaya is a descendent of the Abyss founder,
He’s a mix blooded khanrian with the name Alberich who also just so happen to be dropped off in the same city Caribets mother was from, his birth father is M.I.A
Dainsleif suffers from erosion so even if Dain did know what he looked like he looked younger and Dain can’t remember
The three people who have something to do with the abyss is gathering noww
I feel like they changed kaeya's lore in manga and in game because if you pay close attention to kaeya's star pupils in the manga their the same as dainslief's
Might I just say that I think that kaeya's half khaenri'ahn (and mb half sumerian cuz daz the only nation where we've seen characters with that tone of skin color I mean like the shading and vibrantness of the skin color palette) cuz his star shaped pupils are smaller than the ones of dain and pierro (just a theory though :) )
EVERYONE SHUT UP HE SAID ‘As someone from Mondstadt’ yall that’s literally kaeya claiming mondstadt as his home. He HAS chosen
Yessss cant agree more. We've seen his vision in 3.8 outfit. Even if its in the bottle/dreamland it shows his inner acceptance of mondts as his home
But that phrase is an obvious evasion, when he says “I'm a Mondstadt man and I'm not used to that” he's lying because Kaeya likes serious battles, he's the kind of guy who talks a lot with his tongue and knows how to entice with his speeches so that people tell him what he needs. Also here.
@@liricachan6820 agreed, its just abt time his fate catch up and he needa pick khaen or mondst
also to be clear he may accepted mondst as part as him, basedon his skin vision
but that vision still has khaenria star. so he's still clung to that part of his past too.
i mean..when ur home was destroyed. who wouldnt will to get it back? recent irl event made me think of it deeper
Ngl Dain was kinda funny on that moment
What is it with Kaeya and Death after Noon? First it was in the brews and ballads event and now its here being ordered by dainslief.
3:05 Is he referring to the Gate Of Zulqarnayn and the Hangeh Afrasiyab deeper within?
4:37 dude came to the place like from that vine guy says: “good evening”
Guess the like of drink is a Khanriah thing
When I saw the crap they did putting Zhongli and Venti together I did not have high expectations of this meeting
I bet in the future Kaeya Will betray us and, Will reveal his real form like Tartaglia when he fight with us (probably in the Khaenriah Abyss Chapter)
I think he'll most likely become some sort of antihero rather than straight up betraying teyvat (he's greatly indebted to the ragnvindrs and mondstadt after all), although i feel like there'll be some misunderstanding or worse, hatred from the people of mondstadt as he reveals his nature...
Kaeya is the same dude who has reveal he a spy to Diluc long ago, and he doesn't even hiding that from everyone.
So he won't going to betray anyone soon. Of course, unless he got forced to
I'd think Kaeya would be some kind of double agent,
He destined to fight diluc and maybe diluc die (probably)
God i really hope so, he's so interesting and i love him as a character, i hope they use him more
This archon quest was too short, I was expecting more stuff in this quest.
Lol definitely. I was so surprised that it just ended there. I guess with how long the Sumeru quests were, I’m just not used to the length. Even so, I don’t think even We Will Be Reunited was this short
What i find funny is that dain says it's not time yet...cuz he frickin drink haven't arrived yet...free drink is always welcome with dain
I'm screaming crying throwing up
finally after 2 years kaeya story quest can u also upload faruzan hangout quest too? cuz i haven't touch the story quest yet xd
Whoa shocking
I’m more surprised that he drank an entire menu’s worth of alcohol in one sitting I hope his birthday gift this year is an intervention
So even dainsleif have an erosion
@@ChaolaoFueChi perhaps...
@@ChaolaoFueChimore likely to be related to Star Rail via the whole universal travel bit.
If you have mona then you can get a good lore piece from "about kaeya"
did I miss something on a previous quest? why was Kaeya so casual when talking about khaenri'ah?
apart from his usual snarky(?) attitude, him just mentioning it out of nowhere caught me off guard
WHY Dain ordered the same drink as Kaeya's favorit drink - "Death After noon?" Was Dain following Kaeya? Otherwise, why did he order this drink, and it is also Kaeya's favorite drink, which he always orders at the Angels' Share bar
See the monstat characters have the best back stories and developed characters tbh
How ironic! There’s a fanfic that talks about Kaeya with the merchants incident
YURI LOWENTHAL THE 🐐
Idc if Kaeya seems sus or whatever y’all are saying, I’ll always love my beautiful icy man no matter what ❄️💕
I'm back here with my kaeya and the cryo abyss mage theory. coincidence? I think not 😂
Spices
They have really done great job taking India as reference for sumeru
kaeya is very very suspicious in this quest !!
Why Kaeya sound so different, like he is angry/pissed that he got disturbed on his own thing but is trying to hide it.
I guess Collei wouldn't want to find out that Kaeya is a Khaenri'ahn. I wonder how would she react if she was there and then Dainsleif came?
Chlothar Alberich, the Founder of the Abyss Order who strayed away from Anfortas Alberich's Principle.
Collei would go
"bro, who tf is dis"
Bro I gasped so hard
So diluc sent kaeya to known the wine secret of sumeru
So what they're saying is that there's a 'King' of the abyss order rn, of whom Kaeya is a descendent of? Or even if there's no king, Kaeya is technically 'next in line for the throne' by birthright?? Barring the twin ofc. Aint no way mhy isnt cooking something with Kaeya in the end man. Can't wait to see his story unfold. I have been literally waiting to know his backstory since I started playing two years ago.
I love Kaeya 💙
omg its our favorite compulsive liar
Am I the only stupid one who mispronounced Kaeya's last name? I thought it was pronounced Al-bur-rich. I wasn't even paying attention to the conversation, I was too shocked when I realized I've been saying his name wrong the entire time
Kaenriah under sumeru ???
Yeah that shit was weird. Extremely weird. Rukadevatha (or however it is spelled the dendro archon before kusanali) do not go to kaenriah cause she stay in sumeru to protect irminsul, so how kaenriah is under sumeru? it makes no sense.
For myself, I explained it in such a way that Kaeya read false information in the book. You know, like in the stories with Atlantis there are many hypotheses where it could be. It might be the same here. The author of the book suggested that Kaenriah was under Sumeru for some reasons.
ive been waiting for this moment yet i haven't played the game yet cause its not weekends
Am I the only one thinking they CHANGED Dainsleifs VA? He sounds different than before
Imagine if Diluc meets Dainsleif
Just leveled up my Kaeya to level 60 (I just started playing a month ago). Haven't gotten his constellation yet but he is by far the most interesting playable character in the story.
You can only get his constellations in the standard banner and trust me he and Amber are the hardest ones to attain unless you get really lucky.
Diluc at home: WHERE'S MY PILLOW GONE
*kaeya in sumeru* I must escaped from being slept on-
Kaeya is one of the abbys mage, like herald with cryo element
