Khaenri'ah - Tumblr Posts

The Audio "I swear... I wont leave you/I don't believe you" but it's Diluc and Kaeya.

Kaeya has more or less lost his birth parents and has been taken in by Diluc and his father. While Diluc promises that he and his Dad wont leave Kaeya, Kaeya is pretty sure that Diluc would think differently if he knew about Kaeyas 'history' and that he is meant to be a spy.

Khaenri'ah secretly reformed through all the people that somehow managed to hide away, while Kaeya knows nothing of it and suffers because he cant really decide between his homeland and the land that has become his home, can he?

(Ik that thats technically very impossible, but it's an interesting Idea to me. Kaeya thinking hes his nations last hope, not knowing what hes even expected to do when hes all alone. Meanwhile the Nation is slowly growing again without making an effort of relieving him of the burden it placed on him when his father sent him away)

Paimon Theory

So I see people always saying why there are so many fans hell bent on not trusting Paimon, with all the theories about “who she really is” or what goddess she could be. Like saying nobody trusts Paimon. And I just wanna point out 2 things….

The main reason I have trust issues is THESE BITCHES

It’s not just about trust, it’s about narrative purpose and foreshadowing. Aside from speaking for the player we don’t know much about Paimon what she’s even for. Now the Kirby characters were just plain traitors. But in the cases of Chip from Sonic Unleashed and Mokona it wasn’t that these little dudes where evil. It’s that the cute little creature was more powerful than we were originally led to believe. Chip was a friendly god with amnesia who regained most of his memories near the end of the game. He wasn’t lying and was still an ally at the end. I suspect Paimon will be a similar case to that.

If she does have a relation to Khaenri’ah, it would explain why her and Dainseif have such similar Star aesthetics.

Of course plenty of other people have already pointed this out. K have a nice day.✨

If that is generally the dendro archon I can see why the Tsaritsa cut ties with Celestia. A continent wide disaster that crippled nations and killed two adult archons along with thousands of mortals and Celestia then thinks its a good idea to give a preschooler divine power and authority. That is incredibly unethical and a completely legitimate reason to give up hope with Celestia.

Like on top of all her personal losses, the likelyhood of her having kept a mental record of everything Celestia has done wrong throughout her rule as the cryo archon and the potential theory that she was romantically involved with the previous dendro archon. Celestia pulls that. That's enough reason to snap.

A Sinner’s dance

Bound by chains of guilt

Their thread weaved through fate

Used to a fault

Moving elegantly, unnoticed

Perhaps that’s the fate of a sinner

First time drawing in this style, I’m pretty happy with how it turned out

" the 'pride of humankind' was uprooted and crushed, like a weed removed from the garden of gods... "

Don’t get frostbite.

Absolutely gorgeous art

“no more red skies….”

alternative title: “ Chlothar and his son Caribert”, inspired by the painting “Ivan the terrible and his son Ivan” by repin, this quest just made me think of it :’)

Fischl lore slideshow complete! I tried to organize everything in a way that makes sense... You might have to click for quality to read some of the smaller stuff. (also warning this is a longgg post)

If you read all the way to the end of this, thank you so much! I'd love to hear any theories anyone else has about why and how Fischl is Like That™

Why I think Layla might be related to Khaenri’ah !

she’s the only other character who’s sitting down in their artwork aside from Kaeya, who, in theory, is sitting down because he’s sitting on his throne as a the heir to Khaenri’ah’s royal throne. Her hair and the tassels on her wrists as well as the back of her cape are the four-pointed stars we see on every Khaenri’ahn related character. Also her circlet, or crown (pointing to royalty) has some of the stars and the shading in her hair also is in the shape of the stars in a lighter, grayer color- like Kaeya’s streak of gray hair, or Pierro’s streak of navy hair. She shares a similar enough color palette to Dainsleif and Kaeya and Pierro and maybe even Albedo if you squint. What if she’s another member, or maybe even a sage, of Khaenri’ahn royalty- also sitting on a throne. Especially a royal sage or consultant of some sort, seeing as her pose looks like she’s advising someone to do something.

The four- pointed stars on Kaeya’s eye and clothes:

The four pointed stars on her:

The Official Genshin YouTube channel also posted this about her:

So she’s a sleepy character who apparently has never experienced sleepwalk, and by a stretch, has never had a dream. In the Genshin trailer: Travail, way back, the one where they show a small glimpse of the nations, Dainsleif mentions that “there are those who dream of dreaming.” He also mentions that “Some say a few are chosen and the rest are dregs.” Now I’m really stretching, but what if what happens to her here in this description is connected- what if the stars descending on her paper was her being ‘chosen’- she also calls it “The star’s blessing”. Especially with the fact that she had just woken up from a restful nap- what if she had a dream during that nap, and as a Khaenri’ahn, allowed her to be blessed by these random stars???

ALSO @genshin-impact-updates said that her constellation is apparently called ‘Luscinia’ so i googled it and (copy pasted from wikipedia) Luscinia is a genus of smallish passerine birds, containing the nightingales and relatives. It also said this:

Now who else do we know is one eyed-?? Dain, Pierro, and Kaeya- all of them not only related to Khaenri’ah, but related to Khaenri’ahn royalty. I googled what nightingales symbolize, and apparently they symbolize a LOT like creativity and nature and melodies and mystery even???

I’ve also never seen a nightingale in my life but apparently they sing a lot at night so maybe she’s really supposed to symbolize some sort of magic or dreaming or stars or whatever as a Khaenri’ahn. At this point I’m really stretching but MY POINT IS BABE WAKE UP NEW KHAENRI’AH RELATED CHARACTER JUST DROPPED

Edit; I have something to add on the visual similarities between her and the other Khaenri’ahns we know. her hoodie/ veil is twisted to cover the right side of her face more than her left side. Just like Kaeya’s hair and eyepatch, as well as Pierro and Dain’s covered right sides. I think it’s a more subtle way of pointing to how Khaenri’ahns cover their eye just like their King Irmin mentioned in Hidden Strife.

Edit2: jk she can sleepwalk my bad Idk if she can dream or not tho

Inktober day two: Roam ( From my own prompt list!)

Character/ subject: Felicia (Genshin oc)

‼️I AM DISCUSSING SPOILERS FOR THE GENSHIN QUEST “BEDTIME STORIES” BELOW THE READ MORE‼️

Day two is done!! Today’s story is our lovely Felicia, once the royal jester of Khaenri’ah, roaming the palace in her dreams post cataclysm where she stumbles upon a family portrait. Pierro, the royal mage, Vedrfolnir, his eldest son, the visionary and Dainself, his second son and the twilight sword. Once her dear friends who now she only sees in her dreams

This was made with the headcanon/ theory that Dain (and thus Vedrfolnir) are Pierro’s sons. I love it, I hope it’s true but I have no evidence besides “oh visual similarities” “well Pierro was a mage implying he has magic, Vedrfolnir as the visionary also has magic. Probably got it from his dad” so bam. Family portrait

Felicia’s story is LONG. long and not the time but she was close to Dain, Pierro and Vedrfolnir (Vedrfolnir being the reason she’s alive now) she just misses them because she’s unaware they’re all alive.

I know you can barley see the portrait but that’s on purpose I had to try and blend together a screenshot of Pierro from “A Winter Night’s Lazzo”, a screenshot of Dain in game and a drawn over screenshot of Dain that’s supposed to be Vedrfolnir. I wasn’t showing that off.
