    I have feeling that Genshin or Teyvat is like the Beginning of everything in the universe followed the Honkai Universe...Since Genshin - Chinese transalation YuanShen - Yuen meaning Orignal and Shen God - Original God or the Primordial. So it safe to say that Teyvat was the Genesis of Honkai Universe.

    let's see if I can explain this one. Teyvat means arc in Hebrew so it implies that it's a vessel of sorts in an unknown universe carrying the last hope for life. After what we saw in Natlan it appears that the rest of the universe is broken. Teyvat than becomes an embryo for a planet that is why it is said that it's sleeping. The firmament around Teyvat can be seen as an eggshell and the primordial water as the lifeforce it nurtures itself on, in Fontaine it's even named as Amniotic fluid. To create this world Lumines will has been used to form this egg. The dragons are a manifestation of Lumines will to crush the Heavenly Principles. This connects to Lumine fighting to liberate the thrones with the dragons authority her authority. The archons represent the will of the gods. All of that is taking place within an egg that is in a dream state. But Theyvat was made for a reason that is not revealed yet since it's an arc heavenly principles had a plan with it, possibly to fight something much larger in that universe that they are having troubles with right now.
    I think this is the Genesis story to Honkai Impact, and how Herrschers came to be so powerful, the reason why they say it's not "connected" it's because it pre dates the honkai universe. "The arrogation of mankind" refers to what happened to earth and this is the reset button we experience in Genshin. Abyss and honkai energy are probably very much related to each other
    It's even possible that Irminsul is the imaginary tree in the future

      In hi3 on a certain planet, honkai is not called "honkai" but "The Abyss" instead :) Part 2 is a treat for genshin x hi3 crossover enjoyers. Also, knowing Otto saw the Dvalin in Teyvat not too long ago, it is safe to assume that the timelines are not too distant from one another. If they ever wanted to connect Genshin to the other games or have more collabs, making the timelines really distant would kill that business opportunity. So I can safely tell you that it is VERY likely that the hi3, hsr, and Genshin worlds exist simultaneously, just really far away from eachother on the tree

    6:51 The most important dragon sovereigns were Hydro and Pyro. The Hydro dragon governed life in Teyvat. We don't exactly know how he died. Egeria was created from the heart of the original Hydro dragon and served as a means for the Primordial One to seize Hydro authority and prevent the hydro dragon reincarnation. As long as Egeria was alive the hydro dragon could not reincarnate. That's why Neuvillette was born following Egeria's death in Sumeru.

      The most important was nibelung himself, the rest are very likely to be all equals
      Hydro made life, but dendro very likely controlled what were essentially proto leylines (in chinese leylines translate to dragon veins) which are the world itself.
      The pyro sovereign controlled phlogiston which formed the base elements as we know them.
      Im like decently sure the anemo sovereign controlled time.
      All 7 sovereigns are likely all on equal measure

    19:35 They do not. They seem to align, yes, and the resemblance is uncanny, but they do not until we know for sure that they do.
    Also, and this is a personal opinion, I don't think that the Primordial One and the Heavenly Principles are the same. And the reason is simple: How they treat humanity. In Before Sun and Moon, we read how the Primordial One held humanity as its dearest creation, and that only the breaking of the covenant between humanity and the Primordial One could make it regret and disdain humanity, but that "the path to Sin was long sealed away" (not verbatim), and that "If humanity felt hunger, the Primordial One would send food and rain, if humanity felt sad, the Heavens would sing, [...]", but after the war that made Byakuyakoku fall to what now is Enkanomiya, the Primordial One stopped responding to its people's prayers, along with the Shades of Life, Death and Void, as the only Shade that helped them was Istaroth. I think that the Primordial One lost or was "assimilated" to the Second Who Came, but they formed a "pact", by which the Second Who Came was deemed victorious and the new ruler, becoming the Heavenly Principles, and the Primordial One would be able to keep its creations alive. How does this make sense? Humanity never sinned during the war, as far as we know, and we know for a fact that the people og Enkanomiya were sinless, but after the Second Great War, the attitude the Heavens showed to humanity changed DRASTICALLY, and to this day, we see the Shining Shades going against, in subtle ways if anything, the Heavenly Principles and its rules (Istaroth helping Enkanomiya and planting a new, healthy and young Irminsul in Inazuma (the Sacred Sakura), Ronova helping Natlan with the Ode of Incandescent Resurrection, and Egeria transforming her Oceanids into semi-humans).

      Nah.. They kinda are cousins.. As they are the original from Long just.... Reincarnated.
      We know clearly that Genshin takes place in the Honkai universe.
      Firstly from HI3.. Which directly shows Otto looking at Dvalin while he was looking through other worlds.
      Then through the devs.. And we know that from HSR expanded lore.. The imaginary tree is an universe and a multiverse.
      A Universe in spatial terms. And each leaves being star systems.
      And in multiversal terms.. With branching timelines.
      Bubble worlds are fallen worlds in the sea of quanta.. That are doomed to be destroyed.
      So yeah.. There is no doubt that the dragons of teyvat are the descendants of Long the permanence.
      To say otherwise would be to see a boulder and call it water.
      Unless you can drink the boulder then you are just coping.

    This idea that the Light Realm and Void Realm (=Abyss) are paired opposites has been around a long time despite the game saying it's Celestia that is paired / opposite of the Abyss and that the Abyss energy is alien to Teyvat the same way Celestial energy is alien, as early as the Chasm, where we got a Chasm loading screen message saying two forces battle in the Chasm and both came from "beyond Teyvat". Clearly this means Abyss and Celestia.
    But in 5.1 we got two more pieces of data confirming this view and negating the idea that the Abyss has always been a part of Teyvat, or is older than the Primordial One. First the new KFC wings that confirm that the 2nd Descender or 2nd Who Came or 2nd "customer" is the world devouring demon that is the Abyss. Second the comment by Mavuika with Yohuatxxxxxx where Mavuika says that the Abyss invaded Teyvat around the same time as the war with the 2nd. "Invaded" meaning coming to Teyvat from outside.
    So the idea imported from the Honkai games of an Imaginary vs a Quantum doesn't exist in Genshin, and if you insist on matching a pair up like that then it would be Celestia as the Imaginary and Abyss as the Quantum. Also the Honkai universe is not the Genshin universe. The whole Imaginary tree / sea of quanta concept itself is not one universe but many and Genshin and Honkai haven't been linked except in this "we get a peek at a different universe" Easter Eggs in Honkai. All that Honkai stuff is within the one Honkai universe which is not the Genshin universe. The various Honkai games are linked to each other but not to Genshin, except in the most tenuous sense of the wider Hoyoverse "multiverse" and Easter Eggs.
    Besides which we're told in game that dragons of Teyvat can and do appear out of nothing, or nothing but a concentration of elemental energy. Just the same as slimes and crystal flies spontaneously appear. We're also plainly told that dragons generally (and Apep specifically) don't like humans precisely because of their separate origins through the "Usurper" PO, and that they are not the same at all. Again it's not like only dragons resurrect in Teyvat. In theory so do gods and we see Guoba and Nahida losing and gaining energy.
    Plus your theory would make dragons a lot more powerful. In Teyvat the PO takes out seven Sovereign dragons, and who knows how many other dragons, easily and all by himself. Then when Nibelung goes off to get outside help (because the dragons are just too weak) they lose a second time. And it's not like the dragons even come in second place because the Abyss would be 2nd place. The dragons can't even contain the power of FK and stay sane.

Did Phanes want to make the Katzlien Race, the Yokai, we know that the Jinn and Aranara race were made by gods, even the Fontainians. Venti was an elemental Lifeform, so those can apparently gain sentience. We even see the Dendro Sovereign make that Fungi Species thing that I’ve forgotten the name of.
    So, a Dragon Sovereign is capable of creating life to some extent, even the Primordial Elements of the world can shape humans, it just needs a Dragon Sovereign to turn the Primordial Element into Blood- Oh!!
    With that being said … was the Katzlien bloodline from a Cat species that wanted to live like a human, and was granted this desire by a Dragon Sovereign? If this is the case, there should be a Dragon Sovereign who isn’t that upset with the human species if they had enough of an understanding to accept such a desire.
