@@redace4821 we dont know anything about paimon's race or stuffs about her past, dendro archon's age doesnt really related to paimon in anyway possible.
@@justsomeguywithtb2953 yes, lore wise Zhong Li and Venti are the oldest and the only two remaining of the original 7. The current Hydro, Dendro, Cryo, Pyro and Electro archons ascended to be an archon after the decease of the previous ones. Venti, believe it or not was actually quite powerful, hence why he conquered the land where he proclaimed himself the anemo archon, killed countless gods and powerful beings. Although, Zhong Li with his vision has always been the strongest among all of the archons, originals and new ones, without his visions, probably not anymore.
Not directly related, but I love how so far, each Archon seems to have a different story with how we find them or how they are doing in the world. For example, both Zhongli and Venti both decide to live as normal people, but Venti is still the God of Anemo, unlike Zhongli who has given up that position entirely. Here are some of my ideas for how the other Archons are faring: - One is ‘dead’ but is actually alive, opposite of Zhongli’s plan. - One is obviously a God, and makes it known (probably Tsaritsa) - One is actually dead, but the people of that nation hide it. - One does not know they are a God as their memories were taken, thus someone else took their position, and it is our job to help them reclaim their status. - One is very controlling over their subjects and keeps a watchful eye on them. (Not sure if this fits in with Inazuma, I'm a new player at AR29, I haven't reached it yet, and I have no idea what's happening as of right now.) - One is being mindcontrolled, but the player doesn't know it. If anyone has other ideas please lmk! I love Genshin’s storyline
That last one "- One does not know they are a God as their memories were taken, thus someone else took their position, and it is our job to help them reclaim their status." sounds like could be the case with Dendro Archon, given what we know about the situation in Sumeru
From the end of Endora quest, we got more info about the Hydro Archon. The Oceanids we know of loved the original Hydro Archon who's now dead. Meanwhile, they hate the current Hydro Archon so they fled. Then this current one sends assassins to hunt them down. It's also known that in any body of water, the Hydro Archon watches

Baal’s motives have always intrigued me, I think that her role is defined by fear. Her actions come two fold, sealing her borders, creating a massive storm to surround it, and removing Visions. Given how the world operates and what she is creating it is possible there are two motives to her actions. One is to keep something away from her nation and to shore up its defences, gathering power to hold something back. Or preparations for war. The defensive and offensive possibilities. Defensive is due to the fact she is unwillingly to involve herself with anything outside her borders, possibly knowing something might attack or will attack soon. Meaning she doesn’t want to involve herself with what might be coming. The Fatui might not be the cause, but might be an instigator. The reason for this development is likely out of fear too, from something on High. Such as Celestia. The offensive part comes from the creation of the Statue of the One Hundred Eyed God. Obviously a powerful tool or weapon. Given her desire to attain eternity and her views on herself she likely wants to make sure nothing can threaten her rule. There is only one force that can challenge her, and that is Celestia, and given her belief that she is closest onto Heaven, that can be seen as an insult to Celestia. Therefor, she is likely planning to fight them.
i actually thought the threath she is scared of, was the Statue of the Thousand-Armed Hundred-eyed God, cause she fears that the awakening of this God (Much like Osial) could lay waste to Inazuma, thus going against her Eternal rule ideal, maybe she sacrifices Visions upon this statue so the statue is content, and doesnt awaken. We saw in the cinematic that Kazuha had, how that statue had actually eyes and was sealed in place, its not too far fetched that it grows arms in order to fight.
@@draconinja2728 Fair point. We have little information sadly and most of what we make up now is conjecture. I hold to my theories but yours does have some good merit to it. Although this implies a more benevolent side to Baal’s actions. Which sort of take away from things, an antagonistic Archon would be interesting to see. As her character has been portrayed as tyrannical. If what you say is true that it is to keep the statue sealed I wonder why this is only being employed now. Possibly it could mean that the God is actually something from Celestia. Or we both could be wrong. Not sure. But I do like all possibilities. Makes it more interesting to see what it can be.
Unless is explained later on the new patch. This whay I understand about Baal's motives for the Vision Hunt Decree. *1)* She wants to reach Celestia or asencion to a new realm. (a.k.a Heaven.) *2)* Baal wants projects a powerful and untouchanble image for the Fatui and Habingers. *3)* Baal doesn't wanna be forgotten nor replaced. She wants for humans to dependant on her. Contrary Zhong Li's choice to leave Liyue's destiny at humans's hands. *4)* The One-Thousand Eye Statue is either a weapon against the Fatui or a boost for her powers.
Maybe because she is the youngest among the Seven, she thinks she needs to be eternalized? Insecurity reasons? What happened to the Archon before her, I wonder?
Or that, she wants to protect her people from celestia. I mean, from what we could see in the manga when Vanessa brought up celestia to Venti, he seemed uncomfortable about the topic. A lot of people had noticed this too(even youtubers), not just me-
@@silverjuly9339 Actually Dendro is stated to be the youngest Archon rising to the position only 500 years ago. Your point still stands with all of the original Archons now gone/retired. We know about Venti and Zhongli but what of the other five original Archons? What happened to them?
Before reading the lore, I always thought that Venti visited Baal, (drunk) told her that her beauty was not eternal which prompted the vision hunt decree so that she could retain her beauty

For Context to some people, it is not the archons who decide and bestow the visions to people of Teyvat. Since when asked about visions from Baal, She is surprised that no new Electro visions had been passed and reveals that she's not the one responsible in granting electro visions to people. Currently it's implied that the ones that grants visions to people are Celestials who are unseen gods above the archons.
Guys before anyone says anything about how she is super duper strong archon person I just wanna say this: we already know what the strongest thing in teyvat is, the thing that can kill batman, fatui harbingers and even archons. The Ground :)
Based on Venti's "About Baal" audio, he knows. So its likely Zhongli also knows. Its just that the regular people of Teyvat didn't really notice the change so he just refers to her as Baal for simplicity's sake.
yes Genshin, it is already clear to us that Mosntad is the city of freedom, Liyue the city of contracts and Inazuma of eternity, thank you for repeating it 32914 times
Its a year, not like hundred or thousand of year. Paimon is probably just wandering clueless town to town hearing stories from people. And for some reason drowned in the coast of modstat while she could float 24/7. Btw have we seen paimon sits or stand up on her own?

from what i understand the "eternity" part is the current state Inazuma is in and she wishes to have it forever, but she either doesnt care or doesnt understand that a rebellion will form up eventually.
I mean there already is a rebellion at tatarasuna. I wonder what ayaka would do. Given her famous status, if she were to ever revolt she will indeed have a lot of supporters whether or not it's the raiden shogun she's revolting against. I'm also interested in knowing why tatarasunans dislike baal. Considering the fact that they don't even pray to the raiden shogun as told by an NPC at Kujou Encampment is also worth noting.
Guys remember when mona mention a certain book given to the disciple/descendant of her master's friend (wich probably Alice) in her story quest? In my theory, that special book might have something to do with God giving vision to someone who's probably doesn't fit the criteria that much In other case, it's mentioned that Lisa also read a certain forbidden book in sumeru that have mysterious power. I assume the power of the book is probably the reason why Lisa can have a vision with a single thought, but unfortunately it gave her backlash everytime she use her vision. And like, her sentences are quite sus "...hmmm maybe a vision would do." Bruhh what if the book can actually grant you at least one wish but there's a price to pay for it. And what if that book is the same as the book that Mona mentioned? (Sorry for my bad english, and again, it's just my theory based on some clues that I know"
I think the criteria to get a vision varies a lot. I think I remember reading somewhere that Lisa was sumerus best mage and while in the middle of her research she realized it’d be in her favor to have a vision. I think the “desperate time” is just one example of getting a vision.
Every conflict in each region of teyvat Monstadt: dvalin got corrupted by the abyss Liyue: the death of the geo archon, fatui, osial Inazuma: baal who seek eternity despite the cause for the people Sumeru: the wisdom itself, the "resurrection" Fontaine: the god of justice turns unjust, fatui (ll dottore) Natlan: secret of the pyro archon, ancient deity Snezhnaya: you guessed it the fatui and tsaritsta herself
SPOILER: The current electro archon is not Baal, it's Raiden Shogun (the existing archon in Inazuma) or Ei (the real Raiden Shogun). Baal was the former electro archon which is also Ei's twin sister.
Just imagine Paimon is a being from celestia or even another world and she’s already gone on this journey with lumine before and is now going on another one with aether. Like she’s a god judging them …..
There's a leak claiming Signora's going to be the next weekly boss. I had a feeling that the reason Raiden Shogun "Baal" made The Vision Hunt Decree is because the Fatui influenced the Raiden Shogun with their view of Eternity
"In his long life, he has met countless people, and shall meet countless more still." "As they say: waters change course, but mountains move not." - The Raiden Shogun.

-A guy in the inazuma quest
Pretty sure Lady Yae said that..
1:03 that animation played at such a perfect time 😁
Unless is explained later on the new patch. This whay I understand about Baal's motives for the Vision Hunt Decree.
*1)* She wants to reach Celestia or asencion to a new realm. (a.k.a Heaven.)
*2)* Baal wants projects a powerful and untouchanble image for the Fatui and Habingers.
*3)* Baal doesn't wanna be forgotten nor replaced. She wants for humans to dependant on her. Contrary Zhong Li's choice to leave Liyue's destiny at humans's hands.
*4)* The One-Thousand Eye Statue is either a weapon against the Fatui or a boost for her powers.
It kinda seems like Baal is doing this for herself and the Fatui. That’s even more reason to kick her ass
Maybe because she is the youngest among the Seven, she thinks she needs to be eternalized? Insecurity reasons?
What happened to the Archon before her, I wonder?
Mei Senpai
Or that, she wants to protect her people from celestia.
I mean, from what we could see in the manga when Vanessa brought up celestia to Venti, he seemed uncomfortable about the topic. A lot of people had noticed this too(even youtubers), not just me-
@@silverjuly9339 Actually Dendro is stated to be the youngest Archon rising to the position only 500 years ago. Your point still stands with all of the original Archons now gone/retired. We know about Venti and Zhongli but what of the other five original Archons? What happened to them?
Before reading the lore, I always thought that Venti visited Baal, (drunk) told her that her beauty was not eternal which prompted the vision hunt decree so that she could retain her beauty
Lol that honestly sound like something venti would do
Imagine you bring zhongli to fight her:
That's what I plan to do
And venti?
@@harshittikka5705 she's not s weekly boss BTW just bring zhongli solo one time. She's like the abyss herald in the 1.4 archon quest, can only fight in quest
It wouldn't be a fight. Baal is an Archon with her Gnosis... but Zhongli has been clapping gods before he became an Archon.
Edit: Good God, what have I done!?
@@Fire_of756 we don't know the full story of the Electro Archon. Zhongli only threw a spear created an island while she literally cut Inazuma in half fighting a serpant god with no difficulties
TLDR:
Zhongli: dat bitch cray
Literally XDD
"Seven ideals for seven gods and of these eternity, is nearest unto heaven"
Sustainer of Heavenly Principals.
As someone who played Honkai first I am screaming with the theories.
Zhongli: The Anemo Archon is the God of Freedom
also Zhongli: more like God of Drunkards
Its taken from last Liyue's last archon quest... but I will take it anyway
Well am glad someone upload it because I forgot about this conversation
"That's the name of the Anemo Archon takes these days, is it? Truth be told, from the moment I met him, I could somehow sense that we were not going to get along. Also, he sure does drink a lot."
-Ei talking about Venti
"I had an opportunity to feast with him once, when I was just a kagemusha attending a gathering of the gods. So he's made his choice. Be that as it may, I don't believe his story is anywhere near finished."
-Ei talking about Morax
I hope the rumors is true about baal banner . Will come out after 2.1 end. So i have a lot of time to farm Primogems...
I hope it comes soon since I have guaranteed limited, 74 pity, and 16 pulls waiting.
I think you got a the very least 60 days to save
@@dohalimilqarasdeldemenanci8483 it's enough.. i farm 11k in a month i want to at least have 20k for baal since i will use ny guarantee pity for ayaka.. already 73 pull on kazuha banner... Hope it not a hard pity.. 😅
@@CaelusXFirefly69 what do you mean you farm 11k in a month? Thats not how primogems work, you aint gonna find 11k in the world doing quests or opening chests(there is a limit to them, pretty sure i openened every chest in the game and did every single quest but still dont get 11k primos in a month).
@@dohalimilqarasdeldemenanci8483 I'm not 100% f2p
For Context to some people, it is not the archons who decide and bestow the visions to people of Teyvat.
Since when asked about visions from Baal, She is surprised that no new Electro visions had been passed and reveals that she's not the one responsible in granting electro visions to people. Currently it's implied that the ones that grants visions to people are Celestials who are unseen gods above the archons.
I like how his last sentence is just him mocking the shogun
“ The electro archon Ball” - Zhongli
"can't wait to throw a rock at her" says the Zhongli on my friends team
Keith silverstein really said ball LMFAO 😭😭
Guys before anyone says anything about how she is super duper strong archon person I just wanna say this: we already know what the strongest thing in teyvat is, the thing that can kill batman, fatui harbingers and even archons.
The Ground :)
It is surprising that Zhongli doesn't know that
Baal is not Raiden Shogun/ Ei but her twin sister Makoto.
Ei's real name is Beelzebul
Based on Venti's "About Baal" audio, he knows. So its likely Zhongli also knows. Its just that the regular people of Teyvat didn't really notice the change so he just refers to her as Baal for simplicity's sake.
I bet baal respects zhongli the most like his strenght wisdom and how hes the oldest archon hes the strongest archon for sure
Remember you non lore readers she may be the current electro archon but she isn't the electro archon from the original seven.
Yes.
baal be like : hippity hoppity your vision is now my property
*"The electro archon ball."*
"The electro Archon's ball"
Zhongli didn't mention that ball sword came from her opai
yes Genshin, it is already clear to us that Mosntad is the city of freedom, Liyue the city of contracts and Inazuma of eternity, thank you for repeating it 32914 times
HOLD UP, HOW DID PAIMON KNOW INAZUMA "ISN'T THAT BAD" "LAST YEAR"?
Its a year, not like hundred or thousand of year. Paimon is probably just wandering clueless town to town hearing stories from people. And for some reason drowned in the coast of modstat while she could float 24/7.
Btw have we seen paimon sits or stand up on her own?
@@redracoon1322 I get what you're saying but when i picture paimon sitting or walking or staying on the ground, it seems...um...weird(in a creepy way) and plus she'll be too small for her and the traveller to be in the same screen panel lol
from what i understand the "eternity" part is the current state Inazuma is in and she wishes to have it forever, but she either doesnt care or doesnt understand that a rebellion will form up eventually.
I mean there already is a rebellion at tatarasuna.
I wonder what ayaka would do. Given her famous status, if she were to ever revolt she will indeed have a lot of supporters whether or not it's the raiden shogun she's revolting against.
I'm also interested in knowing why tatarasunans dislike baal. Considering the fact that they don't even pray to the raiden shogun as told by an NPC at Kujou Encampment is also worth noting.
Judge by the standards stated by Zhongli, I still cannot gasp why Klee got her vision? :-?
Maybe her mom is the Pyro archon or something
Yep. And non other than Murata the god of war was the one who gave Klee a vision
And apparently Lisa was just given her vision when she asked for one.
Guys remember when mona mention a certain book given to the disciple/descendant of her master's friend (wich probably Alice) in her story quest?
In my theory, that special book might have something to do with God giving vision to someone who's probably doesn't fit the criteria that much
In other case, it's mentioned that Lisa also read a certain forbidden book in sumeru that have mysterious power. I assume the power of the book is probably the reason why Lisa can have a vision with a single thought, but unfortunately it gave her backlash everytime she use her vision.
And like, her sentences are quite sus "...hmmm maybe a vision would do."
Bruhh what if the book can actually grant you at least one wish but there's a price to pay for it. And what if that book is the same as the book that Mona mentioned?
(Sorry for my bad english, and again, it's just my theory based on some clues that I know"
@@theheadguy1212 Baal simps too ya know
It is quite telling rex only trust venti with the knowledge he is still alive
Good to know, didnt realise that. So ZL stepping down is also a smoke screen for him to go incognito..
Becuz they're both is the only original of the seven who still alive
@@波多野凛-i8c
But wasn't the previous archon of storms killed? Morax and baal are the only ones we can be certain are from the original 7.
She carries around a boob sword.
Zhongli: *CRUMBLE*
Zhongli carries got himself a long schlong, so we're even
I really hope we get some kind of interaction between Baal and Zhongli/Venti in future content.
They say you get visions during your most desperate time but didn’t Lisa just ask for hers-
Well lisa is gonna die anyways so doesnt that count as the most desperate times?
@@ksjejejririehruehr9738 that came from nowhere
I think the criteria to get a vision varies a lot. I think I remember reading somewhere that Lisa was sumerus best mage and while in the middle of her research she realized it’d be in her favor to have a vision. I think the “desperate time” is just one example of getting a vision.
@@shadowninja2338 No no, they have a point - Lisa is gonna die soon so
@@blahajahaj but where did that even come from
I just love listening to Zhongli Storytelling
He might be the next Morgan freeman..
Zhongli should just narrate everything.
I like thinking that baal is that strict kohai but has a big crush on his senior zhongli
Every conflict in each region of teyvat
Monstadt: dvalin got corrupted by the abyss
Liyue: the death of the geo archon, fatui, osial
Inazuma: baal who seek eternity despite the cause for the people
Sumeru: the wisdom itself, the "resurrection"
Fontaine: the god of justice turns unjust, fatui (ll dottore)
Natlan: secret of the pyro archon, ancient deity
Snezhnaya: you guessed it the fatui and tsaritsta herself
How you know thisstuff
@Sora Jin the manga is a prologue to the genshin impact story
Where they actually got this from was the travail chapter trailer
@@-Genki yea
"But you know, there is no such thing as eternity if you end it, is there?"

3:05 "Eternity nearest unto Heaven" sound like Close to Contact Zeus for me
just a bunch of grandmas and grandpas talking about their prime days
*the electro archon ball*
-zhongli
Now I know where I heard zhongli voice before, he's also agent 47 va
POV: you switched over to dub just to hear Zhongli’s voice
Soooooo she is afraid to pass away like rex lapis "did" and is searching for a way to prolong her life and make her self immortal?
SPOILER: The current electro archon is not Baal, it's Raiden Shogun (the existing archon in Inazuma) or Ei (the real Raiden Shogun). Baal was the former electro archon which is also Ei's twin sister.
"Only through eternity, are you closes to the heavenly principles"
Hi first person
Change my mind zhongli really seem serious-
i dont know why but it feels like paimon is interviewing zhongli
Just imagine Paimon is a being from celestia or even another world and she’s already gone on this journey with lumine before and is now going on another one with aether. Like she’s a god judging them …..
She is from celestia. I mean, just look at her feet. It has celestia ornament
He didn’t even hesitate! And straight up said *“the electro archon ball”*
Please!! LMAO
We need a Zhongli Boss.Imagine spending hrs trying to break his shield just for it to be renewed 💀
What did Zhongli see in Gorou
There's a leak claiming Signora's going to be the next weekly boss. I had a feeling that the reason Raiden Shogun "Baal" made The Vision Hunt Decree is because the Fatui influenced the Raiden Shogun with their view of Eternity
sounds like one of those fake or misinterapted ones
It's a real leak. I've seen the whole footage. Two phases. 1st phase is cryo, second is... Another strong element.
Who else is here after the raiden shogun's nightmare? (I wish zhongli has a cutscene with raiden shogun in the future and share his wine lol)
Meanwhile venti: I need wine
Shot in the dark... Someone already stole her gnosis and she's now paranoid.
No one can beat zhongli in coolness
I’ve been pronouncing it Ray-den for ages now I feel dumb
for now zong li is freaking wise of them archon. sounds and act like it
Thank you for this! You the MVP
Am i the only one that thinks Raiden Shogun sounds awesome?
Nah, m8.
Next ep we will learn more about new update with zhongli
Who here also planning to pull or collect all the seven Archons?
Just me? Ok...
Bro I got ayaka while building my pity for Baal 😭😭. Got her within 30 pull. F*ck.
Me too, that’s why I’ll get Baal around her first te run since I want other characters currently and yeah collecting the archons seems fun
So far i only have big dong zhong, missed venti in the windblume.
Good thing he is not a boss that we have to fight, otherwise...
"I WILL HAVE ORDER."

They are twin electro archons
Yes the electro archon ball
Me when i heard the ball:
"In his long life, he has met countless people, and shall meet countless more still."
"As they say: waters change course, but mountains move not."
- The Raiden Shogun.
I wonder what they think of each other. I know zhongli is old buddies with venti but what about other archons like her. I wonder what he thinks about the state of inazuma and I wonder if raiden respects him or wanted him dead lol
Zhongli calling Barbatos
The first time I've heard about this, I was thinking of are there going to seize the visions of my friends as well?
The electro archon 𝓑𝓪𝓵𝓵 🏐
1:00 miniature man walking by don't mind.
1:03 that dude looks so small lmaoo
In Inazuma, Paimon accidentally said she is an ancient.
hm pretty interesting that the first two archons we meet in the game are both the weakest and strongest ones, yet probably the only ones who wouldn’t put up a fight
What? Weakest and strongest Archon..?
@@gabrielaarons6102 sorry if it sounded confusing, I meant Venti and Zhongli being the weakest and strongest archons respectively
@@mellynelly8348 Wait, who's the strongest? Pretty sure it wasn't confirmed that Morax was the strongest.
@@gabrielaarons6102 ah, sorry for the misinformation then
@@mellynelly8348 It's fine.😁
It seemed like zhongli has some history with baal
Cant wait, I lost 50/50 on Kazuha Banner to Mona, gonna skip any banners until Baal!😉
Same, i got mona in kazuha banner
Me too except i lost it to mona on Ayaka banner.
I lost Ayaka to jean 😓
I lost Kazuha to Jean...
