- *IMPORTANT*
There's been a lot of new information since this video was made that have shifted some events around, and it needs an update. PLEASE take note of the assumptions below and don't take everything in this video as 100% factual.
---
If you ever wanted to get into the lore of Genshin Impact but wasn't quite sure where to start, you're in the right place! This Beginner's Guide to Liyue is part of a series of videos where I will be covering the lore of Genshin Impact in a nutshell. Excellent for beginners and new players to get a very quick understanding of kinda complicated histories, and also useful for experienced lore enthusiasts who just want a quick refresher.
This guide is NOT a comprehensive one. It's meant to be used as a framework upon which you can deepen your understanding. Therefore, there are a lot of things left unmentioned.
I have also made a couple of assumptions which will be outlined below.
*TIMESTAMPS*
0:00 Introduction & Disclaimer
1:55 Ancient Liyue
5:55 Guili Assembly
9:50 Liyue Harbor
17:27 Post-Archon War
22:00 Outro
*ASSUMPTIONS*
1) Morax has at least three instances of fighting water-based dragons. The descriptions of each are REALLY similar so it's very difficult to tell if they're all from the same "family," different depictions of the same encounter, or entirely different entities. I'm opting for the latter because there are suggestions about other events in the descriptions of the fights that place them at different times. Also... Qingce(Chi) would be kinda hard to fight multiple times since it was split into pieces and sealed.
2) I'm assuming the Guizhong Ballista has never been moved... if it has then that makes things really confusing. It does say that she placed it at the base of Mt. Tianheng but that's a big mountain so... it could be anywhere.
3) "Old Liyue Harbor" is my assumption based off the description of the battle against Baqiu and the description of Morax's first actions upon his "assignment" to Liyue.
4) I took my best guess at when the events for Marchosias' sacrifice and Xiao's rescue took place. We don't actually know when these events occurred.

**VIDEO NOTES**
- *Amendment:* I failed to mention it in this video, but the founders of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor were also responsible for helping cleanse the lands of plague alongside the Yaksha. I should have at least name-dropped them there, but I didn't because whenever WFP comes up I go on very long theoretical tangents. We'll talk about WFP in another vid, promise. Same for the Exorcists of Liyue.
(truthfully, while we do have Hu Tao and her whole quest to go on, I still don't feel like I know enough about the plagues that time OR the Exorcists.)
- *Correction:* I was unaware of this prior to releasing the video, but some of you in the comments pointed out that there's a translation error in regards to Azhdaha's discovery. I placed him at around 2,600 years ago, but some of you said that in CN he should have been found closer to 3,700 years ago. I CANNOT FIND A SOURCE FOR THIS so if you have one, please @ me.
Hey so uh this isn't to do with the video, sorry, gonna seem a little random but I didn't know how else to message you. But a good few months ago I kinda made a big stink in a comment of one of your live stream vods about your view on Thoma and I just wanted to apologize for that. My behavior was unacceptable and , not to try and defend it but just as a point of explanation, I have issues with anger that have been getting steadily worse alongside my trying to cope with other issues and sometimes I let it get the better of me. Tryi8ng to work on it. But anyway , again I'm sorry for acting like a jerk and just want to say I genuinely do really enjoy your content. I know a crazy amount of work must go into making them I'm sure some random guy giving you a hard time about something meaningless is the last thing you're wanting to put up with.
Thx for the video! :)
Do you still play Genshin or are you mainly creating lore videos?
Just found your channel today and love the content so far.
3700 years? That's older then Morax already 🤔🤔🤔
Btw ain't during 2022 Lantern Rite, Zhongli said he wasn't the one bestowed Azhdaha with sight of something like that? I don't really remember but he did say not everything the story teller said were true
@@alfredomanalo4107 Zhongli is around 6000 years old, though; and 3700 years ago Liyue Harbour was founded 🤔
I know it’s a bit reductive since this video is about all of Liyueto, but Morax threatens to be one of my favourite characters in fiction. I’d gladly watch a movie about him going from young “meat-head” Morax to the wise lead adepti we know as Zhongli. There’s a real character arc there, and even a dark side as well.
Zhongli is not a meat head, he's a rock head
@@rivalifritdarc2481 Dongli
Liyueto? I’m assuming you’re using the Japanese name, if so it’s “Liyue Kou.” “Kou” is “harbor” in Japanese.
You know, I’d argue he’s still a little bit of a meathead with his rambling! I think a lot of his wisdom and knowledge was gained with age. He’s more like a living book than an analytical genius
@@ollieisarat I definitely agree but I also feel like he has mastery over his knowledge and knows where to draw the line. He also learns from his own story and that’s how he became to be the balanced soft and well spoken Zhongli the people of Liyue (and us) know today.
Maybe I’m biased tho, I do love this character a lot
Guizhong has such an incredible role in liyue history and zhonglis growth, I wish we'll have dedicated event for her or see what she looks like :(
I think that the Archon Quest of Liyue doubles as both our introduction to Liyue as well as a Memorial to Guizhong. My headcanon is that after the dust settled and the people of Liyue came to Mourn Rex Lapis's "Death" Zhongli attended the Rite of Parting to Mourn Guizhong, he used his alter Ego as Funeral Advisor and Director to arrange the Rite such that it would seem like a one dedicated to Rex Lapis, but in reality, he meant it to be for Guizhong.
This comment aged well, given Lantern Rite year 3.
There's a teaser about Guizhong, Cloud Retainer and Madame Ping relationship. It shows their youthful human form and how to interact with one another. To which Guizhong was to Zhongli like what Makoto was to Ei. Zhongli was the warrior who do all the fighting while Guizhong was like the brain of the operation with all the tactics, which was exactly how Makoto was to Ei. And not too much surprise, both Makoto (Ei's older sister) and Guizhong died cause they ventured into battle with the very little strength they had, both Zhongli and Ei failed to protect their tactical partner and was both immensely personality changed by that same failure
Yanfei is the best character to tell about every written record of Liyue, so the impersonation really fits.
As a Yanfei main, I just think that the tone and cadence of Ash's dialogue matches Yanfei's English voice to near perfection. 😘
I love this series because Genshin's Lore is too scattered for me to piece together properly and this helps me understand it very easily
"Name your government after your favourite ship... i guess" had me lmfao - you put so much work into this, thank you !
Yessssss. I love this series, bc I'm too lazy to go find the lore myself, even though I love Genshin lore and plot. Ashikai goated with the sauce.
Same!
Heh the sauce.
Indeed
5:44 Based on what the recent archon quest with Makoto, I believe that we'll also help Zhongli open the memory of dust. Hopefully. I can't imagine the Zhongli eroding and not being able to open that. His story is already so painful so I think this will either be a bittersweet closure or just a truly depressing event/story. I AM SO HERE FOR IT.
I'd just like to point out, "Adeptus" is the singular, "Adepti" is the plural. I also see this mistake when people talk about "-oculus" and "-oculi", Anemoculus, Geoculus, Electroculus, etc.
yess this was bugging me too 😅😅
For real
Homunculi Homunculus, Calculi Calculus, Zhongli Zhong- wait a minute..
I call it electrolytes
-uli sounds nicer
butchering english is also fun
Ah Liyue... history so fragmented that it was referenced in Zhongli's first story quest. How erosion and people often warp the records of history.
Kinda surprised you don't reference the fact that the Hu clan/Wungsheng Funeral Parlour were the ones responsible for quelling the plagues while the Yaksha dealt with the dead gods and curses. I think its note worthy because Zhongli chose to work for them most likely because of their history, capability of working with the supernatural and their sense of boundaries. But I understand that its diving into the more comprehensive/specific side of history rather than general history. Just thought there was a lack of acknowledgement on the human contributions on the history of Liyue like the Exorcists and the Millileth.
Excellent catch. It’s also likely that the Staff of Homs might be from one of the said supernatural beings such as the Yaksha.
Yeah Exorcists and the Hu clan played a big roles in Liyue history
Yeah I thought about it. In the end I decided not to because I couldn't find a good way to include it without straying heavily into theory territory. In hindsight, I probably should have at least mentioned they were involved even if I didn't go into detail about what that entailed.
Guizhong has such a significant role in the lore and I really wish we could meet her :(
I'm really thinking that after guizhong gone. Most likely Cloud Retrainer is the one who guide Zhongli , even Zhongli admit her as his teacher.
Fact
In terms of lore there was way too much in Liyue. This was very well done. Everyone should like and subscribe.
awesome video! i’d like to point out that adeptus is a title given to one that has made a contract to protect Liyue, with Rex Lapis. It isn’t a category of beings, like illuminated beasts or dragons. Ganyu is half human, half qilin, but she is still an adeptus since she made a contract with Rex Lapis. I believe her “adeptal lineage” talked about in her story quest is a mistranslation, and references more her illuminated beast side. This is similar to how Yanfei’s father is an adeptus, but Yanfei is not, since she hasn’t made a deal with Rex Lapis, but she’s still half-illuminated beast. And through her work as a lawyer, she’s considered an “honorary adeptus” to some.
Qiqi uses adeptal arts, techniques used by illuminated beasts and adepti, but she is not considered one herself.
It’s a little bit confusing, but I thought it was worth mentioning.
Morax is the “Prime of the Adepti” because he is the leader, and the Archon, the most important protector of Liyue.
Yeah this is kind of the issue with the English translation. IMO, it's a lot easier to convey the concept of "adepti" than "illuminated beast" so I went with the former. Ultimately you are right, it is just a title.
I just realized something and thank you so much for your Mondstatd, and Liyue Lore summaries that I saw a parallel between Decarabian and Havria. Both wanted to protect their people, by their own ways but these people they had cherished eventually killed them back.
I just can't fault the two gods doing those things such as creating a wind barrier or creating an underground city, they really meant good will so seeing how they ended up, I just feel sad. I think until now Decarabian is still a Tyrant King from Mondstatders while Havria had her small peace from her remaining believers but on the wrong perspective.
Again, Ashikai doing everything. Really nice paced storytelling. Keep them coming!!! Loving the series so far
at the start when u assumed that the old liyue harbour was most likely at the current harbour's location. i think there's also reason to speculate that old liyue harbour could have been further inland. in the liyue section of the teyvat travel guides, Alice had speculated that jueyun karst was initially submerged underwater (suggesting that zhongli had raised the earth in some form). Zhongli, who was accompanying her as a guide through jueyun karst, didn't confirm or deny this speculation but alice's recounting of the event suggests he was at least amused by Alice's statement. just something to think about :) I love ur videos!! thank you for all the great lore content
Another good catch but I think most of that was speculation and so it was left out.
@@Zarozian yea i understand i just thought it might interesting to discuss it in the comments if anyone else had extra things they could bring up about this topic :)
@@kazooboi8001 a lot of lisha is still submerged to this day, but there's reason to believe that hydrological basin was submerged, but current Liyue's harbor area wasn't at the same time, most likely due to some God's actions or activities at the time
Lisha is such a strange region, but part of why I put in the assumption about "Old" Liyue Harbor is because the Guili Assembly specifically says it stretched from Mt. Tianheng to Stone gate. If they wanted to include the Lisha area, they would have said like, from the CHASM to stone gate. And if that was Morax's old settlement, then why abandon it later? Seems weird. Not impossible by any means, but it does feel weird and wouldn't explain why the original followers of Morax went to sea so often.
wait a minute, that might explain why theres nautilus fossils everywhere in liyue. yknow, the ones where we get the geo sigils?
Wow Liyue really has a long history. I wonder if we'll ever get to see the yakshas or even witness these past events
You will get what you want in 2.6- THE CHASM!
The leaked artifact set for Xiao looks like the purple yaksha that disappeared so maybe we will learn more about him :)
Hopefully we will. There's that leaked artifact set that looks like the purple Yaksha so yeah, I'm really excited!
Wow.... They weren't kidding when they say Morax put down lots of Gods back then. Back in his day he wasn't just any God to f*** with.
Memory of Dust
"This is the mark of our pledge, and it is also my challenge to you."
"All my wisdom is hidden within this stone dumbbell."
He remembers meeting the young woman with the billowing sleeves, remembers the way she acted solemn, yet seemed joyful when she presented him this token.
What a silly notion. There was no formal contract between them. They were merely two people walking the same path for their own reasons...
But he remembers the scene of their first meeting anyway, when the Glaze Lilies were still in abundant bloom.
He also remembers those words she spoke at the end - again, amid the Glaze Lilies.
"Those little people are as small and fragile as dust."
"Because they are so small, they know not when they will lose their lives to disaster or strife, and so they are afraid."
"Because they are afraid, they try so hard to become more intelligent. This I understand."
"So I thought that since there is such a gulf between us in strength, I should use technique and wisdom instead."
"With your brawn and my brains, this city would surely become a great one."
Her final smile was a lonely one, even as her form dissolved into the finest dust.
"It seems that our journey together has come to an end. As for that stone dumbbell, forget about it, would you?"
"This is the mark of our pledge, and it is also my challenge to you."
"All my wisdom is hidden within this stone dumbbell."
"If you can unlock it-"
Many years passed, and he was never able to unlock that dumbbell, nor would he ever learn what might have followed that sentence.
Over the years, the wild Glaze Lilies, too, dwindled till at last they were no more.
Correction: There were more yakshas than only the 5 you mentioned. We met one of them, Pervaces. The 5 yakshas you mentined were the top5, the very best of the best.
Didn't she mention that already? "Morax gather the 5 most strongest yakshas"
Thank the heavens you made something cohesive out of all you went through
I love how you deliver the story, especially the "name your government with your number1 ship" thingies LOL 😂 and the Rex Incognito at the point of Morax getting his resolve
Damn, if guili was a ship name, we could’ve had ZHONGZHONG 😭😭😭
When you mention long slumber, I'm thinking about the twin sibling slumber. Did they lost their memories too while in sleeping state? Is she/he sacrificing herself/himself before? (like maybe on their previous journey or maybe thing that already happen in Teyvat timeline -maybe they did something in Tyvat history which resulted one of them asleep). I'm still wondering why they could wake up at the same time that Khaen'riah being attacked and planning to leave Teyvat. We're already at Inazuma and going to Sumeru soon, but this is how much information we got about the twin's story, just an itty-bitty sized.
You are by far my favorite youtuber to listen to on my drives to work, from work, and anytime I’m heading somewhere that is like more than an hour of a drive. Keep up the amazing content!
Imagine having a teacher half of fun and interesting as Ashikai back in the days... man you would have a very swell brain by now XD
Love you, keep it up!
Liyue certainly is an interesting place, and I look forward to learning more about it, and the other places in Genshin Impact.
Loved this! Liyue is my favorite region. So happy that you were able to fill in my spotty ingestion of the game's lore. Idk why but I've always been drawn to Guizhong and the history of the Guili Plains. Definitely meant more of that.
Keep up the amazing work!
adeptus is the singular and adepti the plural (similar to cactus/cacti)
I remember thinking guilli sounded like a mix of guizhong and zhongli's name, didn't know it was canon😂😂
this channel is awesome! congratz on the amazing work
Such an amazing series and video! Thanks for putting in the time and effort, can’t wait for Inazuma and eventually, Sumeru.
Absolutely awesome! Well put together, comprehensive, entertaining. Looking forward to Inazuma!
Thank you so much for making this! It takes so much effort to compile Genshin lore, especially from a nation as rich as Liyue. Many thanks especially for including the sources, I'll be sure to reference those in the future. I truly appreciate all of the work you put into this, it's so useful and comprehensible!
i still remember the research livestream for this. i glad that you're ok after all of that research. good stuff as always. this made things a lot clearer for Liyue
Watched both your Guide to Mondstadt and Liyue videos. Very well done. I enjoy the lore and they helped clarify some doubts. Thank you. You’ve got a new subscriber.
I'm a new subscriber to your channel and I'm having a lot of fun going over your content! These beginner's guides are really useful to those of us who enjoy the story and like to see it depicted in a more linear way, so really looking forward to the new ones, as new regions come along!
I've particularly enjoyed the attention you put to the original Chinese text, as that really helps keep the story true to how it was intended! So thanks! :)
A round of applause for this woman´s incredible work from research to analysis to writing, recording, editing and posting. Maybe I forgot a thing or two of those steps and even that got my mind tired. What a delight to watch every video.
Thank u so much for these videos introducing us to the lore of the regions! I have recently gotten into Genshin and these videos have been incredible. Thank u so much!!
20:05 I like how you said "Stabilize" right when Zhongli put up a pillar. This has to be international lmao
MEATHEAD morax is back. i laughed so hard in the stream already, this is so funny skfjakdfj
After seeing your latest stream, chasm and lesha do need a separate video... As always awesome video.. Keep up the good work
Very great video! Liyue is my favorite region so most of this is familiar to me but this was a great refresher (not to mention its nice to have a timeline)👍
Inazuma is a region I can't really wrap my head around lore-wise so I'm really excited for your video on that!
yayy a new favourite ytb serie unlocked!
thank u so much for the effort and time you put into this amazing content!!
Truee...marathon all her video and be amazed by all the detail n theory that she sum up. Very recommended
Im not gonna lie, your line of "yea, guoba's a god" broke me for some reason
Wow, I just found your channel, and I love your voice, theories, and enthusiastic delivery in your videos!!
Fantastic video! I’m really excited to explore The Chasm and learn even more about Liyue’s history, but hopefully it won’t change too much and make Ashikai’s head spin again.. oh who am I kidding of course it will!😅
Zhongli has gone through so much, and it’s why he remains to be my favorite character ever.
He doesn’t fall into trauma- he may have gone through much grief, but he doesn’t give into it.
I love videos like these because they gather all the scattered lore bits Genshin has into a nice, easily digestible pile. Thanks so much for making them!
Although for some reason I’m thinking about the Yakshas being super-scary, ancient Chinese Power Rangers now
It was worth the wait. Thanks for constant dosage of lore and theory Ashikai
hi ashikai! brilliant video as always i really love learning teyvat's lore through you ;o; you research so well and manage to articulate it back to viewers in a cohesive and well-structured manner, and i also love your disclaimers :') thank u so much for this series and all your other ones! ive been binging and rewatching your videos like crazy lately
Thanks ashikai for the genshin lore videos. Especially your narration is amazing and interesting. Love you keep up 💖🤗 your videos are amazing.
I'm so happy about the existence of this series
Did you mention the fishy squid disaster that Morax had to deal with by doing some door to door clean up and that's why he hates fish now,?
I didn't because it doesn't really matter to the history of Liyue. It's more of a Morax-specific thing.
@@Ashikai oh yeah this wasn't about morax
even tho i already know everything about liyue and mondstad i just love hearing you talking about the lore
Im really loving these series.. so excited for inazuma and enkonomiya and hope we can get more story/lore on a upcoming chasm in version 2.6
this was geniunely so interesting and i am so thankful for this video! would love more videos like this :D
Thanks for your time and effort, I loved the video.
Solid Summary once again Ashikai! Nice work!!
*also, just came back from your liyue livestream & I feel your pain. There’s so much stuff about liyue that doesn’t have answers. Praying the chasm lore drop is as good as ekanomiya’s >_
love this video series! Thanks for Making it!
Zhongli radiating main character energy-
I love these videos and would love to see more... I'm so bad at reading in the game and I feel like a miss a lot so this is the first time Im understanding the background for each place and it's so cool
Thanks a lot for the video! I definitely have fun watching imagining you are adult Paimon giding us into Teyvat history (^_^) is nice to have this quick recap to keep track of what is coming in the game in near future.
The way you use tone and verbally annotate the stories of this series is everything I'm here for. Also, the way you piece and deliver information is definitely captivating.
I would LOVE if you had the time to do summaries for the chapters in Honkai! (I'm not trying or wanting you to increase your workload or anything but.. none exist!) 😅
Love your work as always Ashikai, please continue to do what you do 😊
I'm not really qualified to do Honkai summaries.... mostly because I'm not really invested in the stories of the individual characters so much as I like the higher-level plot stuff. I wouldn't be able to do them much justice.
@@Ashikai That is no problem at all.
I for one would just like to hear your summary of the story (incase i've missed pieces of information) so then I could ponder any crossovers between Honkai & Genshin but in all fairness.. I think you've covered them in one or two of your earlier videos. (Thank you for those btw!) 😊
& Also, thank you for your reply! 😊
Bless you I love your commentary
I love this series!! I have a tendency to skip a lot of lore especially at the start of the game when I wanted to reach AR 40 so bad. Now at AR 57, I realized I have no idea how deep the Genshin lore is. So, thank you! It’s beautiful!! 😭😭😭
I love coherent narrative timelines.
Thank you for all your hard work miss ashikai!
Yes I have been waiting forever for this
Thank you for sharing Ash... enjoyed it
Another great (and digestible) video, the side effects of producing this quality in-depth content was on full display that last live stream lol. Appreciate your efforts.
Nice video! Can't wait for the Inazuma.
lmao i love that you put zhonglis E right as you said stabilize
great video as always
I found ur channel last week and I'm obsessed 🤍
Thank god this came before the chasm drops. Excited to explore it
You would make a great professor. You make everything so much easier to grasp LOL
WAIT SO GUIZHONG AND GUOBA ARE THE ONES WHO SHARE THE MEMORY OF OZMANTHUS WINE. IVE CRACKED THE CODE
[SPOILERS?]
Zhongli spoke of Qiaoying Village in northwest Liyue (apparently famous for its tea industry) in Mondstadt's most recent event, and the fact that we can't seem to go that far yet (best we can do are the wetlands west of Qingce) would all but confirm that expansions after the Chasm are in the works for Liyue (likely in the leadup to Fontaine, but that's a ways off).
Many many thanks for this video! It’s not the most recent, but it’s still a great summary and explains a lot of things of Liyue’s Lore that are hard to grasp otherwise. I’d like to ask the source for the claim that Morax’ title of ‘god of contracts’ stems from Guizhong’s broken promise and her death. Thanks a lot!!
Dude I just love your videos.
A beginers guide to - Oh boy I cant wait to watch Ashikai try to make this lore simple this will be hilarious. Love your vids!
idk why but i had literal goosebumps at your line here 8:53-9:05
If you want to know how many Adepti were in Morax's Legion at the prime of his conquest here is a fun fact for you.After the war ended most of the Adepti asked Morax to turn them into Stone Statue so that they could see Liyue grow and develop for eternity.
All the animal statues we see around Liyue are Adepti who asked to be turned in Statues.On top of that there were countless that fell in battle.
Though only a few of the battles are mentioned.Several hundreds might even be a thousand battles that took place over the soil of Liyue.
so far, enjoying the lore videos by far... since i mainly considered playing genshin for the lore... sub
i LOVE YOUR VOICE AND THIS VIDEO IS AMAZING, I HOPE YOU WILL DO MOREEEE
I must say I'm really glad you're doing this series and that I found it around the time I saw the Honkai video.
I have never played a game like this, with a deep story, and lore. I mostly play sports video games and watch anime if I want a story. But I must say I love watching vidoes about past Limited time stories. I had no idea about 60% of what you have brought up in these 2 vidoes because I never understood the timeline or order. I kind of just assumed the seven , the wars, and stories were from 500 years ago or after. Thank you for spending time doing the research and making theses vidoes. (Ps. Idk if you already did this but I think if you put your theories from your research you could make a separate cut if you have alot of them. Like a "thoughts on Liyue's Lore" or something. If you don't already have that)
There's a video about this going up as I write this comment lol
Hey this is super off topic but, have you ever noticed the bard girl that wears strange clothes in Mondstadt? When you ask if she's seen anyone that looks like you, she gives a really interesting answer.
Wait, where is she? I haven't seen anyone like that
what does she reply with tho
@@mxxnsmelxdy I only noticed her this week so I don't know if she's always been here or not her name is Sansa and she stands outside of the goth hotel near the fountain.
@@ziqdam1396 it seems like she seen us before as protagonist in a picture book from her childhood.
Early gang! Awesome lore video!!! I def understood it all clearly and im fully caught up on it now. Still wanna know if the missing yaksha will ever return or is confirmed dead
Missing yaksha seems tied to the Chasm so maybe we'll get lore there.
I love this series and waiting for Inazuma one.
So I know it didn't relate to this video but there is something I discovered out of no where.
Did you know you can draw Perfectly liyue characters' constellations on liyue Waypoints?
Seriously you can draw xiao constellation
from his inn.
if your Teyvat world theory is correct, the star are fruits of the world tree and so does the the constellation and you can draw constellation on waypoint
then the waypoint serve as the holder of the fruit, the long rod that keep the fruit not to fall, for this case the waypoint serve to hold the stars or constellation.
There's a star event in 1.1 and the follow up in 1.3 in The quest" We'll be reunited"
There's a stolen archon statue which might be served as the stars older.
since it's stolen,it cannot control the stars,and then stars falls.
But stars fell first in 1.1,and the stolen statue in 1.3 which is not in order ,i don't know why.
Thank you for clarifying the timeline murkiness of the Guili Assembly, and the toll the loss of Guizhong took on Papa Zhong. I adore that man
I think it was mentioned in Zhongli's history that Venti and him used to meet regularly during the period between the Archon War and roughly 500 years ago. (Possibly with the other original archons) So when Venti met Xiao and saved him, it might have been while he was coming back from an Archon meeting
Stabilize azdaha
While footage of him doing his e
As a zhongli main this is pure gold
More Lore, YEY!
your voice sounds like yanfei, its beautiful and IM HERE FOR IT
Still waiting for the Inazuma one, i love this series so hoping you do one for inazuma!
Amazing video !! Zhongli's evolution is quite incredible
I have a question tho, do you think it would be possible for azdaha to be one of the seven dragon sovereigns the primordial one fought against, or one their heirs (like the baptismal vishaps) ? Would it be a stretch to assume that?
I don't think it's a stretch. It's possible, but we know so very little about the dragon sovereigns that I'm not sure what camp I'm in.
OMG IT'S HAPPENING, THANK YOU ASHIKAI
YEAAH! new episode!
Some of these things I didn't even know..., I knew most of it but I didn't know some.
Thank you.
