      Unless she knew about the narwhal and how long it would take to devour the primordial waters, i don't think she knew how long it would take for the prophecy to be fulfilled, which is why she planned everything and put all the necessaries in place from the very outset so at any point the prophecy chose to cone thru, she would've been accumulating energy, furina would've always been acting and neuvillette would've always been iudex. Just that without enough energy the suicide wouldn't work but her plan was just that there was no guarantee for it to work but she was sure the prophecy would come thru so yh idk if they helped

      @paulcollins4538 my theory is that she does not know. That's why she created the sluce gate and had Furina be her body double.
      I think the prophecy happens when the conditions are met. (Furina tried by her own people.)
      As to why Celestia was so convoluted and not simply drop a Divine Nail? I do not know.

      I think Foscalors didn’t know, but she may have knew that once the primordial sea starts acting up (such as in Poisson), the people’s anger for their archon will start to boil (especially for one not doing anything). This could eventually result in putting their archon on trial, in which all Foscalors would need to do is sentence out the death sentence for herself. If what I think is correct, Focalors really was putting all her faith in Furina to play out her role perfectly

    I like Fontaine the most because the underwater experience is fun, easy to explore and the hydro archon is fully detailed, Egeria makes humans, she dies and one of her humans take her place and schemes to deceive the Divine. Rhukadevata or Buer as a character isn’t fully explained, like she’s a tree? Raiden Ei or Beelzebub motivations and plans weren’t really explained like her whole friend group died and now is stealing jewelry? Zhongli/Morax, and Venti/Barbatos have a whole story book of information but we know they’re hiding something so they get a pass.

    Very helpful video, thanks for breaking it down. I'm still a bit confused about a few things though if anyone knows:
    *. Why did the waters rise? The Narwhal was in the Primordial devouring the jank for a long time, and that is what was causing the water to rise? Then when the whale is defeated, the waters suddenly go bananas and rise enough to consume all of Fontaine. Also, why did the water recede so quickly? Was it because of the cliff on the east side of Fontaine in which all the water just drained off?
    *. Since the plan was to save up enough power to destroy the hydro throne, why didn't Focalors activate her plan earlier? Ah, would that be because the prophecy needed to be fulfilled in order to fool the Heavenly Principles? I suppose that makes sense, nvm lxD

    • @kim_genshin
      @kim_genshin  8 місяців тому +4

      As we know the narwhale is the cause of the rising water. During the fight, the water in fontaine was probably already going bananas. After we defeated the whale, the water started receding after a little while

    • @paulcollins4538
      @paulcollins4538 8 місяців тому +1

      Not entirely sure but i think the waters rose because it was sealed and so with the narwhal running amuck and trying to escape to eat the fontainians the pressure probably caused the remaining waters to escape then when the narwhal got defeated the waters rose. The waters receeded quickly (if I'm not mistaken) due to a drainage system paimon mentioned. Focalors plan wasn't enacted earlier because she needed the prophecy to be fulfilled and also her plan was sorta automatic in the sense that she planned everything from the beginning so things would play out naturally so at any point, furina would still be acting and neuvillette would be iudex. The only part i guess she didn't plan on was childe being there to buy a little time and the traveler to help defeat the narwhal. What I'm wondering tho is if she knew about the narwhal from the very beginning

    • @guyschill2059
      @guyschill2059 7 місяців тому

      It was basically a flash flood after it "died", Neuvillette did say this before after all, even if they could defeat the narwhal it was still too late since it was practically merged with the sea itself, it absorbed too much of the primordial sea and so when it fought Neuvillette, it released to much power which caused the flash flood. Tho now it doesn't matter much since focalors already solved the main issue of them dissolving

    Now this leaves like a ton of questions about Celestia, like are they even caring? I don’t think the destruction of the hydro throne was part of their plan with the prophecy, as the “Hydro archon” is suppose to be present or alive and crying over her people’s death. But Focalor destroyed the throne to gave Neuvi his powers back, a sovereign which is one of Celestia’s or the Promodial One’s toughest enemies, wouldn’t that suppose to wake them up or are they’re like: “Oh you got a sovereign on your side? Ok that’s cool… *goes back to sleep*”😅

      furina is part of focalors. so the statue will still be there. and focalors killed the hydro archon position. the focalor we saw in story was the divinity, the godhood, while furina is the human side of focalor, hence while focalors is somewhat dead, shes alive through furina as furina is part of focalors.

      They did explain this, id I'm not mistaken, so the prophecy didn't specifically say the people will "dissolve" just that fontaine would basically drown. Given the circumstances they should've dissolved and so I guess celestia just made that assumption and to fool them, focalors kinda just spread it so everyone will think that's what was supposed to happen. He she let the people know that there was a loophole in the prophecy then she would've have been able to fool the heavenly principles. So the prophecy was wrong, like false info to help fool the people and the principles, it didn't specify the dissolve part just that the hydro archon will be alone weaping on her throne and everyone else gone presumably drowned or in this case dissolved
