[3.2] What is a "Descender"? - Genshin Impact Theory - [Project:Teyvat Ep 2/5] 

Another fun fact about the traveler, before getting an element traveler's normal attacks are named "past memories".

Ashikai mentioning resin reminded me of how Nahida actually acknowledges the existence of resin in one of her teapot conversation. It was fascinating for me.

14:45 She CAN read Venti's but venti himself notices it and says NOPE, I can hack you back.

Finally, someone mentions THE WINGS. I was staring at the wings on the mural in Sal Vindagnyr and at wings in the first cutscene forever, and I was like "those are too similar to not be the same". And that ascension to the throne of Gods and everything. FISHY, FISHY!

cutting to a clip of kaeya just as the narration says “the true king” was smooth as hell. i see you ashikai, i see you

13:45 Ok, Mona might not be able to read the traveller, but if he is a blackhole of information, then Mona just have to record everything around the Traveler. It just mean she cant lock into his fate and look into it, but can sorta predict the traveler as he is a moving blank of information. So Mona is observing the traveler as a moving anomaly basically. Very difficult, and very unpredictable.

The word descender also has an interesting double meaning - it could mean descender as in to descend from a parent or ancestor. The four descenders could be the four remaining beings from the original civilisation that survived the arrival of the second who came

A Genshin lore video on an Genshin patch day. Thank you, Ashikai.

SPOILER: the new artifact set explained that the second throne DID NOT win against primordial one. in fact, it was primordial one who got panicked and then nuked teyvat with nails also exiled the seelies from celestia

The Traveler having developer accounts makes sense if you consider that they can overwrite others data (purification), they can connect easier with Irminsul and are susceptible to the corrosion of it since their account are rooted in the system.

Reminder to what Albedo said at the end of his story quest when he did those tests on us. *"When you're sick, a doctor can diagnose you because they are you. When something goes wrong, you can ask people who've made the same mistake for their experience, because you are them."* Albedo said that the traveler isn't that different from a regular human or himself so traveler is similar to the citizens as well as a human made of chalk. I think we should keep more in mind what Albedo says especially since he's trying to find out the truth and similar to the Archons and Mona he understands things about them that others don't.

I actually have a theory about the "Abyss Twin" that ties to an older theory of yours. You once mentioned that Albedo was possibly an attempt to recreate Aether and Lumine, which I think you called the "Primordial Human" project. Well, what if Gold succeeded? The Abyss Twin might not actually be our twin, but the successful *clone* of our twin. This would explain why they went on two different journeys, only one of which featured Dainsleif, and it would explain why they're so closely aligned with Khanriah and regard it as a homeland. Plus it explains why their account with Irminsul suddenly appeared in Khanriah of all places, since that would be where and when they were created. It raises the question of "what happened to the missing sibling" but I think the Traveler's actions help explain that a bit. They don't regard their sibling as having defected, but as having been "taken by the abyss." And they keep putting up missing person posters and having people help search for their sibling despite their sibling supposedly being able to join up with the Traveler at any time and choosing not to. If they suspect, even only partially, that the Abyss Twin isn't their actual sibling, then they may believe that their actual sibling is still out there somewhere, and if they were "taken by the Abyss" then I think that the Abyss itself is the most likely location.

Someone beat me to it, but maybe mona can predict the travellers actions in the same way astronomers can't see black holes, but can see the EFFECTS of black holes and predict their movement

You mentioned the angels being divided into choirs, now this is interesting, the 3 moon sisters names all have to do with music (aria, sonnet and canon), which could mean maybe the 3 moon sisters are 3 of the shades of phanes

I had a little epiphany, what if the story of the Battle Pass is actually an encrypted story that someone made to prevent it from being erased like Nahida did with Scaramucci and ended up in the hands of Venti?

The Paimon from the start will always be my favorite, her voice is so calm and gentle, like a true friend who understands your situation.

I was going through Mona's voiceovers so they were fresh in my mind while watching this video, and when the 'Lucifer' section of the video came on, I suddenly remembered one of her voice lines. Her voice line for her last ascension, that is, Feelings About Ascension: Conclusion states that, "In the reflection of the water, I see the ascension of the morning star."!!!

I think the reason I was caught off by them being a descender is that this is the first time an Archon has used that term to describe us? Or did that happen before? I don't think even Zhongli said that but man I don't remember. Yeah I also forgot the explicit hints. Also I actually discovered that traveller not having constellation thing during one of my replays before. Found it pretty interesting. Also also am I smokin' or where is uh... Part 1? Edit: Got it btw. I was indeed smokin’

With the last segment of this video, I think it would make a lot of sense considering how Traveler is the only "non-archon" character who has themselves as their constellation. Not a dog, not a butterfly, not a piece of textil, not a leaf, not Paimon, but themselves. (Maybe Wanderer is also something like this but in his case I think it makes sense because he was a manually created puppet, just like how Albedo has an "baby within a flask" as his constellation)

I’m so glad that you have the same line of thinking that I do. I think the twins are directly from the the civilization created by the Primodial one. If you notice the ruins at Dragonspine and on Ruu’s island, there is always three main figures, a tall man, and two crowned figures below him, being worshipped by other humans. IMO Khanriah were survivors of the war between the Primodial one and Celestia that fled underground, the way Enkanomiya was sunk into the ocean, and was removed from Celestia’s sight. Difference is that Khanriah knows Celestia overthrew or imprisoned the Primodial one, while Enkanomiya didn’t. I also think that Celestia created the Abyss. We know that they cursed the Khanriahian to become abyss beasts, but we also know pre-curse from the Ruin Gollem that Khanriah was fighting the Abyss, so who were the people who were cursed before Khanriah? I think it was the Primodial Ones people. I also think that the twins were cast out of Teyvat, either by the Primodial one to save them, or by Celestia. The Traveler has nightmares about falling in darkness. I think their world traveling was to find Teyvat again. What if the opening sequence is actually when Celestia showed up, in Teyvat thousands of years ago, and not 500 years ago like the traveler thinks? Anyhow just my thoughts.

3:37 Actually there is one other entity that can use multiple elements: Andrius wields both Anemo and Cryo in his boss fight and both of them seem natural abilities of his, not due to external apparatus

ASHIKAI I REALLY REALLY HOPE YOU READ THIS COMMENT cause I found it interesting when you said that Kairos could be a Moon and later I found some fascinating info: (It's quite long so I actually thank anyone who's willing to read the hole thing and tell me what they think about my theory) Kairos in Greek mythology is a God of Time, but it's not the only one, Chronos is another very common name that everyone knows already and there is also Aion (actually there is a 4th one, but it represents a year on Earth so I think it's slightly out of place in thsi context). Kairos represents time in the form of a specific moment, it's “the right moment for something to happen” it's like a section of time in which there is a focus for something important or specific to happen and that you have to grasp, otherwise you just miss it. Kairos is “The Present” Chronos represents time in its chronological order, it's the passage of time, the sequence of moments, if you were to record it you would call it “history”. Chronos is “The Past” Aion represents the eternal time, the concept of eternity and the ciclical nature of this eternity: the cicle of life and death, the cicle of seasons, the units of time repeating themselves second after second, day after day, year after year, ecc. Aion is “The Future” So Kairos, Chronos and Aion, 3 Time Divinities and Aria, Sonnet and Canon 3 Moon Divinities who also happen to have names tied to the world of music. Moons and Time are connected, the phases of the Moon, or in this case Moons, form a cicle, this cicle is used to measure time, even in the game there are moondials and it's also what influences other cicles, the tides of the sea, the cicle of life for plants and animals, ecc . Music and Time have, for obvious reasons, a strong connection, (I know someone could easily say time has strong connections to anything, but the point is music is all about time, its structure is based on time) not only irl, but also in the lore of the game, for example Venti has to do with time, but he is also the god of poetry, of ballads, he is a bard and knows all songs from past, present and future, he sings the history of the world which means that he turns the history of Teyvat into apparently fictional works that can't be changed by Irminsul. (This detail I think it's actually super important and I'm sure it will play a big role in the story. I thought about it when you said that fictional works like light novels could be more reliable than actual history books). So now what do Aria, Sonnet and Canon's names mean? (I don't really know a lot about music or poetry so I hope I can describe the basic concept of these terms without triggering someone, if I'm wrong on something please let me know) An Aria is a piece of the performance that's defined as “closed” because it's somewhat independed from the rest of the piece, it's the part for the soloist, the part in which the singer has to demonstrate their ability. In this context the Aria is “the right moment”, “The Present” so Aria is Kairos or Istaroth. A Sonnet is a metric composition which means that it has a defined structure, an order to follow: a defined number of verses with a defined number of sillables, distributed in a certain order and with rimes that pair in a precise way. In this context the Sonnet is “the sequence of events”, “The Past” so Sonnet is Chronos. Finally “Canon” literally means “rule”, “norm”, “principle”, it's used in all kinds of contexts, it can mean a fixed measure of something, like a fixed measure of time, in a drawing canons can the the proportions of the image and another easy example is the english term “canonically” which derives from the Latin Canon/Kanon. In music a Canon is a piece in which two or more voices or instruments perform the same melody one after the other following regular time intervals. In this context the Canon is “the ciclical nature of time”, “The Future” so Canon is Aion. These I think are the identities of the Moons/Time deities and if I'm wrong I don't know what I'm gonna do honestly, I might cry. Anyway since Canon is “The Principle”, “The Rule” I also wonder if The Unknown God is actually Canon at this point, she would have a reason for stopping the twins and also a reason for stopping humans when they discover something they shouldn't or cause some problems with forbidden knowledge, she is just following her duty and trying to keep the “cicle of time”, the cicle of Teyvat's life going.

It was also very strange that the abyss sibling uses the title of "princess/prince". I mean it could have been anything else but why a royal title? Also why not queen or king? Maybe because they found the truth about themselves being the rightful heirs to the throne of Teyvat and now go by their title of birth.

Can’t wait to see Yanfei and Scaramouche together in these videos.

If we go by computer Analogy, I think of Travelers as a USB drive. Filled with the knowledge of the unknown language. The more they are in Teyvat, the more the computer decodes the language. This is why Zhongli wants us to be a witness. They want us to copy the entirety of Teyvat and keep it in the Drive. So in the case of any of the files getting corrupted there will always be a backup.

I didn't expect that you would go to this route of the traveler being originally from Tevyat but from a civilization that was yeeted from the Irminsul. Nice theory. It's sooo compelling idk why...maybe because you have presented your supports very well. One thing that strucked me the most is the fact that you mentioned about Traveler able to use waypoints, resin, and was given a constellation when resonated with the Statue of the Seven.

It has always been my idea ever since waaaay back in 1.0 when they addressed the sibling with an honorific that the only way to explain that is they ARE from this world, the MC just doesn't know it yet. Like the ending to Planet of the Apes, their travels through "the sea of stars" has lead them back full circle. That one clue starts whole chain of other clues that can only work if this is true.

I think a major point to be noted that argues for the point that the are twins actually related is that in the opening cut scene, the unknown God recognises both of the twins as outlanders. Specifically plural. Whether they secretly are from Teyvat or not, it's an argument that their status was the same before they got separated and are thus related

I remember a crackhead theory from Wei, so funny and mind-blowing, and Ashikai got to the same page as him, now I don't think that Wei's theory is fully just for fun purposes ahah

i have a whole theory that the twins are unique because they defy teyvat so much that they are able to have many different fates, hence why both aether and lumine are both canon players despite having the same journey structure. which would explain why the traveler can't be recorded by the irmisul because there is no set journey for traveler but rather a bunch of different varieties. and something interesting would be that the twins are both the 4th descender because they're considered one person. most likely not true, but i think it would be really cool if aether and lumine were considered one entity because they're twins. it would make the detail of us being twins a necessity, when they could've just made them be older/younger brother and sister.

God I want the Sustainer to appear again so much. Only 3 nations are left and we haven't seen her once since. The design, the voice acting of the Sustainer is top notch. I just want Hoyo to shake us up a bit with a chaotic Fontaine storyline. Imagine the Fatui attempt human arrogation, and she comes down in a cutscene saying "Human arrogation ends now" and then her cubes capture a Harbinger😱

Ashikai . You are a GENIUS . Those little things that everyone thought that they were irrelevant you linked them and made a theory that is 99 percent chance of becoming an actual endgame of Genshin .

Omg that's crazy, I stumbled upon Aster's (Chilling with Aster's) theory a year ago about the twins being Lucifer. And now I'm rehearing the same theory on this channel. I absolutely love this theory.

Lets go more lore!

Given that being on another plane of existence (the abyss) allowed Ei to not have her memory rewritten to include the Sacred Sakura tree, if the twins were a part of the unified civilization could they have been either sent away from Teyvat during the downfall of the unified civilization specifically for the purpose of preserving their memory of it or chased away from Teyvat which coincidentally preserved their memory of it (at least in part)? It’s a pretty big what-if, but it makes sense narratively speaking. (Of course, given the total destruction they were facing if the twins existence meant the continuation of the unified civ either literally or symbolically they could have just been evacuated but the “the tree just kinda appeared, actually no it didn’t” scene being the set up for a later payoff would be pretty cool.)

okay but when i was playing the archon quest and nahida told us about the descenders, one of my first thoughts were "boy i cant wait for ashikai to talk about this! " and here we are! thank you 💕

zhongli hinted at descenders waaay back in his story quest (not sure which one, was towards the end though) but he didn't directly name them. a personal theory is that the archons know OF them, but dont want to get in trouble with the principles, OR they think descenders r dangerous based on their interworldly knowledge. feel free to add on to this, lol

This is easily my favorite Genshin channel. The lore and hints/threads in this game are by far one of its best qualities.

I just had this convo a few weeks ago on twitter about the traveler being lucifer. A LOT of very interesting connections. God I love the lore and world building of this game.

Ash, you are undoubtedly the most valuable member of this community. Great job as usual. Looking foward to catch up with part 3.

This also makes sense as to how the traveller is the only one that seems to be able to restore power to the waypoints and archon statues.

Without ashikai i wouldve never known genshin lore is this deep

Kinda off topic but I think the Book of Enoch has some interesting parallels to the fate of the seelies, specifically the part about a group of angels known as the Watchers who are sent to live among humans and guide them. The Watchers rebel against God by taking mortal wives, sharing forbidden knowledge with them (including weaponry and cosmetics for some reason) and having monstrous hybrid children that wreak havoc upon humanity. These angels are expelled from Heaven and the damage caused by their actions is what triggers the hard reset i.e. the great flood. Giant monster kids don't really fit into the seelie narrative but IMO the rest does, with seelies guiding humanity but being cursed for falling in love with humans, the myth that such an event leads to disaster etc.

Words cannot express how excited I am for part 3. I have a personal vendetta against the "Paimon is the god of time" theory but Ashikai has said (I think in a livestream) that she doesn't think that so I'm really excited to see who she thinks Istaroth is.

Now that I think, the ruins of Khaenri'ah in the trailer are similar to those at stormterror's liar, and if you go in the central tower and try to go down as you can, then at some point paimon's waring will appear and we can't go further or we get teleported, I think that Khaenri'ah is under Mondstadt, if you think here we start the journey, we meet Dainsleif, and even Kaeya was found in Mondstadt.

the fact that all of this is possible just makes my mind blown at *how* much worldbuilding genshin has... like the sheer amount of research needed to make this possible is literally insane

Watching the wish animation while talking about descenders got me thinking about how the twins were "summoned". Maybe they were "wished" to this world.

I wonder if the older archons are experiencing erosion because their "hard drive" has been messed with and reformatted by Celestia too many times.

Something I noticed that adds to the Lucifer motif is the 'Cake for the Traveler's from the first anniversary of your submitted birthday. The second sentence starts: "Here's to you, the brightest star in the night sky." After this video that line hits differently.

someone had gone through the domain where the traveler "meets" Irminsul and a little out of the way from view were nearly identical 'boxes' to the ones used by the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, so Celestia having direct access to Irminsul holds up pretty well as a theory

The amount of goosebumps I'm having because your theories really make sense and is well-crafted. I'm looking forward to the next one! 💖💖💕

Overall, I think there's a lot of merit to this theory! However, I noticed one small issue with a part of it, which would, if taken into account, probably alter it ever so slightly. If the Traveler indeed has records stored within Irminsul, but their dataset is just marked as classified, then there's a major problem... and that is Rukkhadevata. The Traveler still remembers her, meaning that her existence as well as the Forbidden Knowledge related to her couldn't have been completely erased from Irminsul. That leaves us with a couple of possibilities if we still want the theory to work: 1) What happened in Sumeru was just a stopgap measure and we'll have to erase Rukkhadevata even more thoroughly at some point or find some other way to deal with the Forbidden Knowledge. Considering that Nahida still seems to recall a very vague impression, a warmth, during her first Story Quest, there seem to be some slight hints supporting this. 2) Irminsul was brought/created by the Second Who Came and didn't record the Traveler Twins before they fled. We'd have to explain their elemental powers as well as the appearance of their Constellation some other way, though. (Of course, there are probably countless other ways to resolve this issue, but these are the two that came to my mind first.) Thanks a lot for the hard work, Ashikai! Your videos are always a pleasure to watch \o/

Ashikai, I just want to say I love your work so much. Best genshin lore and theories channel ever! Your videos are always so interesting, and the amount of research you do for each of them is astounding. I'm filled with joy every time you upload. I'm so impatient for the future content, and for part 3 in particular!

14:35 in Mona voicelines she trying to read his constalations but Venti himself prevent her from doings so, his constalations exist and can be read.

Thank you for your hard work, I always look forward to your videos! and good luck on your Skrunkly pulls 💙

I'm an incredibly huge lore geek and finding your channel was a blessing, I watch every single second of your videos and I love all your theories, lore explantations, everything, you explain it all so well and the fact that it all makes genuinely so much sense when it comes from you just shows how dedicated you are to this and how much work you put into every information you get!

Can’t wait for part 3 ❤❤❤ Thank you for your hard work, Ashikai and editor ❤

awesome as always and giving me things to think about!

I really love your videos, your theories are always so interesting.

IT'S AMAZING. Really it's so simple, but so difficult to get it. I love this theory so much

I honestly believe, by pure logic, that if Teyvat has descenders, beings that descended in Teyvat from other worlds, then it should have ascenders aswell, beings that ascended from Teyvat to other worlds

this was fascinating to watch. thanks for posting on maintenance day! also the outro music was very cool too

Ashikai, your theories and lore dives along with creators like chill with aster and teyvat historia give me a love for this game that won’t fade until the games finish and likely after, keep up the good work, your fans love your dedication to this story

i love thet you put every single thought that i had about the travelers in one video, this satisfies my brain so much, it's so organized dshdfkduweugw thank you ashikai 🙏🙏🙏🙏

omg i was literally looking for a video to watch while eating. came out at the exact right time

Great video as always, Ashi!

Another amazing video! Thank you for all your hard work

This video was amazing!! I'll keep looking for this series finale !!

I love this theory. I like to wait for your videos to insure I'm not going crazy and overthinking some stuff and to lead the way in theories.

I'm so glad I came across this channel. You have a gift for story telling and your pace and speech is perfect for for kind of video and theory/lorecrafting. Looking forward to your future content!

Giving a like before the add even stops playing! I love Ashikai’s lore explanation.

I was looking forward to Ashikai's new video and boy I wasn't disappointed, this theory blew my mind yet again ! Thanks for sharing all your data collection and hard work :)

The chills I got when you put it all together in the Lucifer section of the video omg!!

amazing job as always i cant wait for part 3 my lore loving self needs more lore/theories to feed my brain till we get more areas to explore

Amazing video, I loved the editing

I love this deep dive Theory Crafting and that it seems you are fully immerse yourself in it :)

in the video you talked about the moon sisters, aria, sonnet, and canon. this reminded me of one of the genshin menu tracks. it’s called “dream aria” and it’s the one with the woman singing that plays during the night menu. I find this connection fascinating since aria is one of the moon sisters, and you said that the seelie race liked to sing. also, the other menu tracks have interesting names like twilight serenity, remembrance, beckoning, eternal anamnesis, and reminiscence. kind of strange that the MAIN THEMES have references to the sky, one of the moon sisters titles, “remembering,” “beckoning,” ect, since this imagery is reflected throughout the twins and paimon (especially if paimon is a seelie). even aether and lumine’s names have connection to the sky. eternal anamnesis (the remembering of things from a supposed previous existence) lines up perfectly with how the travelers remember things erased by irminsul. also their connections with teyvat, like resin generation, resonating with the statues of the seven, gaining a constellation, ect seem to feel like a beckoning call from the world structure itself. I don’t really know where I’m going with this, but I just thought it was cool. another random point that the menu screen is speculated to be located in celestia itself, or some type of sky-heaven. again idk how all of this connects, but it seems eerily connected in some vague sort of way

honestly, bringing up the idea that the twins were once heirs, took me back to the battlepass cutscene, for a while there, i think many of us thought it wasnt the twins in the cutscene for various reasons, but rewatching the cutscene after watching this, makes me feel like it actually is them. of course it might still not be (i personally think it could either be the twins/paimon as the girl in the dress/ or people we havent seen yet) but who knows, maybe its too obvious to have their story out in the open like that, or maybe its been under our noses this whole time. some points of connection that it could be the twins: - one of their heirs was tasked to find (genesis pearl, whatever that is lol) in the Kingdom of darkness, (i feel like this could be their original homeland/place before the time of gods, or khaenriah, or maybe theyre all one in the same) - heir tasked was deceived/memories erased, could be applied to twins - heir has no idea of their origins, and now is the commander of the darkness (abyss order?) - second heir obviously is the traveler as mentioned by venti (but maybe traveler =/= aether??) maybe all this is just mumbo jumbo idk, but i had to rewatch the trailer and i feel like there were many things i missed that i could pick up on now im also always keeping in mind the theme of "crowns" in relation to phanes and his shades, dk if it applys here but its interesting to think about the possibilities

You mentioned you read all of your comments a while ago so I just wanted to say you are loved and appreciated!

After every new archon quest, the plot only seems to quicken...Thanks for the amazing vid Ashikai! I look forward to part 3 :)

Interesting when you mentioned twins being stars, I remember when you download the pre game files. You get aether and lumine sitting near the monstad fountain in day and night version. Like the morning and evening star.

okay so i watch your videos all the time, ive seen almost all of them. But when you brought up the connection to paimon's ars goetia connection to lucifer and traveler??? im sold. THIS is THE theory

the end of this makes me feel better about paimon. if she is a seelie or moon sister or angel or kairos/ishatroth, then her sticking by traveler's side is helping them regain their throne

I love how well put together this is! was so enjoyable to listen to 💖I do want to point out that the before sun and moon book specifically said that the primordial one is androgynous and only referred to them as an "it", not a he

Amazing content, can't wait for the next vid!!

I always thought that the Traveler’s old “home world” was actually just a past Teyvat…Like the Twins left/fled that “version”, traveling around for who knows how long, and during that time something happened to the old “home world” to “die/reincarnate” into the current one (maybe even taking more than one “cycle”?). The dragon one would just be the most recent “cycle” before the current one.

Thank you for this video Ashikai ❤

Usually I tend to agree with about 50% of each of your theory videos while disagreeing with the other 50%, this time I agree with 50% while not just agreeing but actually having theorized before the other 50% of your video, which makes me really excited to see where this theory will go next considering it should fit very well with what I've been thinking of for months now... What a great video!

this is the reason i came back to genshin. your videos are the best part of this game

So the reason why Abyss Sibling exist in Irminsul record is because he/she tapped into the Ley Lines or some kind of device with function similar to Statue of The Seven in Kahenriah. How about the Traveler? Why Irminsul still has no record about him/her despote they have interacted with the Statue? My take on this is after the Cataclysm, Celestia is aware of The Twins ordeal in Teyvat thus modified Irminsul to not record any new data of The Twins nature. Since the Abyss siblings tap into Ley Lines before the Cataclysm ~before Celestia is aware of their existence in Teyvat & modified Irminsul~, Irminsul still has some record on em. The question is then, how far can Celestia modify or affect Irminsul's operation? Can they simply erase existing data or add fictional data into it? I guess they can't do the erase part, because if they can then they can just simply erase all data about Abyss siblings instead of just obscuring new data and leaving pre-existing data untouched.

MY GOD THIS IS DEFINITELY ONE OF MY FAV VIDS NOW

This is really interesting! I like it a lot and how it ties things up. (also I was really surprised to see my name on the scroll at the end, lol)

Maybe Azdaha can use multiple elements because he's a dragon. The 7 elements belong to Teyvat, but what if the energy of the laylines has alien origin? Maybe was created by the Primordial One to control the elements and that's why the Traveller can control it (and the other elements thanks to it). You remember the drawings underground in the fog island where the gods gave humans a gift? The Abyss tryes to destroy the laylines because they want to set free Teyvat from the "slaving energy" of the god.

OMG OMG as soon as you Said Primordial one and mentions demon gods I literally screamed omg I READ THAT AND THOUGHT THAT.. yooo. I'm losing it. You are the reason I always stay lore crazy . I've always been obsessed with it but you have accelerated it. ty Ashikai

ngl I always get a bit giddy and excited when a new ashikai video pops up in my recommended, can't say the same for many other channels lol

One thing I think could also be a possibility is that the traveler and the sibling are the primordial one split in two. They could have been split in halve forcing them to travel across worlds without them knowing that they were actually looking for Teyvat so when they finally arrive back in teyvat the plot starts happening.

Excellent video again!

Im here impatiently waiting for part 3 😀

wow this was hella amazing..... thank you!

I really like your theory about the twins. I need to to rewatch your video and then I need to ponder your info for awhile. I give you two 👍🏻up! I also think the Archons know who the twins are and how powerful they are so, they tread lightly with the conversations they have with the travelers. I’ve seen many times during archon quests when Jhongli stares at the traveler on several occasions. I’m a bit curious to find out what he knows about the twins. Anyway. Ty for video, you gave me a lot to think about. 😊
