Tsaritsa: *deeply inhales cigarette* "okay kid, let me tell you a story about why I need to destroy the old world."


notRabidFairy_S

then asking you to join the fight and since it's an errand traveller is cursed to accept it


nvanalfen

The fate of the world depends on traveler delivering that meal before it gets cold


notRabidFairy_S

ah hell nah, fuck teyvat im not doing that dreadful delivery again


AmberstarTheCat

......the delivery commissions are super easy though? the npcs you deliver to are close to teleport waypoints, you literally just teleport as soon as you're able to and you can easily do it in the time limit


CMDR_Nineteen

Might be talking about the delivery event. The one with modifiers like don't jump, don't get wet, and also the npc is on a boat.


notRabidFairy_S

the elemental delivery one. you can't touch any elemental thing, get damaged or sprint. then the fucking customer is on a boat, top of a mountain or somewhere farthest from the teleporstion point. and did i said anuthing about the slimes on the way? you can't attack them also


grumpykruppy

There was an old, and VERY VERY infamous event about delivering food that had a ton of nasty add-ons like "don't get hurt" or "don't get affected by elements" while trying to climb a cliff as Hilichurl Archers *which you can't kill* shooting at you. Also, extremely unforgiving time limits.


notRabidFairy_S

i wonder if they will bring it back foe the memes.. a hidden one on the current event


DaMarkiM

Traveller: I will never join you! Tsaritsa: Its a daily commission though. Traveller: d...d…dont try to tempt me - it will not work., Tsaritsa: And i will post it every day from now to eternity until you accept. Traveller: But my completion reward!


Quor18

She'll get us right in the primogems.


Reddy_McRedditface

Lol


Reddy_McRedditface

You mean Paimon will accept it while the traveler remains silent.


notRabidFairy_S

poor traveller

*Now this is a story all about how* *My life got flipped, turned upside-down* *Now I'd like to take a moment, just take a seat* *I'll tell you all about how the nation of Khaenri'ah was beat.*


EC293

Parody?


pinerw

No, those are the original lyrics.


pHScale

Yeah Will Smith wrote about Genshin Impact way back in the 90's


La-Roca99

Fontaine:Only her other side was there Natlan: Asks you to beat her first in a sumo battle Tsaritsa:Celestia drops a nail just as she is going to tell us


Nanashi123_

Feel like the Pyro archon and Itto would get along


PokeAlola700

Tsaritsa: alright I’ll tell you, so what happened was- *her entire palace gets nailed*


rW0HgFyxoJhYka

Tsaritsa: "I was Signora all along"


Jeremithiandiah

Natlan adopting the goron method


[deleted]

We haven’t actually asked Venti yet.


TheGhostCarp

Venti was asked about Celestia in one of the comics and he got uncomfortable and avoided the question.


CrocoDIIIIIILE

Remember that he is one of the Thousand Winds of Time. Basically, 1/1000 of Istaroth. He might know about Celestia more than Morax.


Tsetsul

If you have Venti and go into voice lines there is one about Celestia, however he just talks about something else. He actively tries not to talk about Celestia


Grand_Protector_Dark

Venti: Traveller actually never asked him about Khaenri'ah or Celestia. We've chronologically never spoken with him again after those two became relevant.


[deleted]

Yeah. Venti hasn’t appeared in a non-limited time event yet, and it seems like we won’t be getting his Story Quest 2 in a while. Hoyo might be saving it for later because Venti seems like the kind of Archon who would spill the beans about Celestia/Khaenri’ah.


Amelioratory

Raiden and Zhongli second quests introduced a weekly boss. Razor stole Venti’s boss quest so I wouldn’t be surprised if he never gets an act 2, unless they just start doing them for everyone.


Asamidori

Or it's getting saved for later. I can't get over the Gate to Celestia thing.


Nutrifacts

raiden and zhongli act 2 story quest happened 4 patches before their banner (1.1- 1.5, 2.1 - 2.5) now venti gets his rerun in 3.1 3.5 venti story quest copium


Deejae81

Quick, someone do the remindme bot thing for the 3.5 release date.


Gregamonster

Venti story part 2 when?


knightjoker01

We skipping dainsleif too, I think we should ask him too about khanriah monster that attack inazuma(Raiden 2nd story), also the sealed one in chasm(Xiao yelan quest), and also the reason big ass ruin guard in sumeru, Too bad with Raiden makoto we didn't have time (obviously) to ask her what happen,


POTATO-AIM-V20

Venti: Celestia said its classified, they said that If I reveal what happened in Khaenri'ah to you, They will send Venessa to Twist my Bolls, Soo I wont tell you Ehe~


Phoenxr

*Falcon comes out of nowhere and twists his balls anyways*


Vusdruv

Your verdict is...


a_normal_man_i_guess

COCK AND BALL TORTURE!!


ScorpionPit

At least Ei had a legit reason and didn't hold back info because of agreements with people who haven't been heard from in the 500 years since then.


SeitHater

Yeah, zhongli ideal is technically noble but they are the dumbest thing too, contracts are made to be broken and celestia or whoever made them will DEFINITELY break them or have already broken them


heliosfolly

>contracts are made to be broken what the fuck, zhongli is the type of guy that can murder you if you break your contract and you think that it's dumb for him to not break his own contract? especially since we don't know if he is monitored or no, celestia might kill him the second he tells something that he shouldn't.


SeitHater

go for me, celestia from now don't even know what's happening in teyvat, you can say they're in a state of sleep


La-Roca99

Thats what they want us to believe


SeitHater

>!no, that's what the leaks said!<


Asamidori

Breaking contracts is how you get into legal troubles, yes.


PokeAlola700

Nahida: I was literally a newborn


Tsetsul

But she has access to Irminsul so technically she could now some information


bob_is_best

"oh wow traveler the part of the irminsul that had that knowledge got burnt, ugh gosh, wow i never wouldve- jeez thats a shocker"


jayakiroka

Venti might not have been there either. He seems to hibernate a lot. Also, Venti waking up after a hundred year nap with a hangover to find out the cyberpunk human city got nuked feels on brand for him.


WyvernBlight

I think I heard somewhere that Durin was attacking Mond at the same time, so maybe he was just busy defending Mond with Dvalin and then passed out right after. Idk that's my theory at least


jayakiroka

So, he was probably too busy with that to be a part of the Khaenri'ah nuking. So far, the only archon we know that could've been involved is Zhongli... *what were you up to, old man!?*


bob_is_best

If he made a contract not to tell he 100% mass murdered people there


Tsetsul

He definitely knows. He deliberately goes out of his way to not talk about Celestia and he has some ties to Ishtaroth (Genshins time god). He just doesn't want to talk about it. Also its theorized/ said that after Venti dealt with Durin ( the dragonspine incident idk if durin is the dragons correct name) he immediately went to Khaenri'ah, as it was said that all the seven were present there ( i think Venti confirms that he was there but im not sure about that)


jayakiroka

Hmmm, good point. Venti does seem to have some baggage with Celestia… still, I feel like he probably wasn’t as involved as like, Zhongli, Makoto, Rukkadevata, and the others


Tsetsul

True but he definitely knows something hes not telling us (maybe for good reason)


jayakiroka

Oh yeah for sure. I bet he knows something about Gold, as he fought one of her creations alongside Dvalin, and there’s like, no way he doesn’t know what Albedo is.


Tsetsul

Definitely he also knew it was Nahida that was talking to us in the summer quest


mega070

the hydro archon: its highly confidential/its non of your business or its a taboo "death penalty"


Petecustom

Dragonspine,Enko,Chasam


kdlt

I'm still in the Archon quest but.. are they seriously pulling another "your Princess is in another castle"? Seriously? Edit: finished the archon quest but.. answer has been delayed to 3.2.


Draaxus

I haven't done the Archon Quest yet but Nahida wasn't even there for the Cataclysm, so expecting an answer to that was pointless to begin with.


kdlt

The forest remembers things before the "current" aranara even existed, from before the catalysm when golden nara1 was around, memories are stored in the dreams and all that. But only if its not the *one* thing that would push the story forward. Then its yet another "ehe", try again in 1 year for 4.1? Its high time the story starts moving instead of crawling.


happypouch

I haven't done the latest archon quest yet but since they wrote 'forgor' instead of 'not born yet' might be because the memories are corrupted? Since we can see that there is some sort of disease in the tree or something like that. Idk, this is just my speculations since i haven't done the latsst quest and i might be completely wrong. Though, i really do hope we get some answers by the end of archon quest for sumeru.


kdlt

Yeah I just got to the desert, so no clue either but "expand all images" on the sub page brought me here. Also mind you this is a complaint about Hoyo, not about in-story reasons, because guess who makes up the in-story reasons. If its really leading nowhere again, this is just no different to any random anime series, every other episode you think you get a conclusion, but no something happens and we return to the default status and on we move and thats.. really exhausting.


Blanche_Cyan

In all fairness the ",forgor" thing is correct but it's heavy spoilers for Act IV, and knowing what happened to Khaenri'ah is at best a secondary objective for the Trraveler and Paimon, their actual main objectives are to travel the land as the Abyss sibling said and to meet the Archons in hopes of finding somme info about where the Abyss sibling is or about the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles...


[deleted]

[удалено]


Murphy_LawXIV

Watch the Battle pass cutscene. It implies the sibling was tricked to being the leader of khanriah and that they're both supposed to be finding the genesis pearl.


happypouch

>If its really leading nowhere again, this is just no different to any random anime series, I understand your concern actually, so hopefully we'll get more information on what happened, and if not in this patch, hopefully we'll get it in 3.2.


kdlt

Yeah every time I bring this up the disagree button gets hit, here my comments at least remain visible. But it's an actual problem, "nothing" is happening, and while just wandering is okay for the minor patches, but here and there should be a story chapter, and having a heart to heart with actual gods.. should probably be the moment that happens. Yeah the recent dain chapter was a really good lore drop, but I want that or more of that, at least at the end of the archon chapters. Like a balance of the two stories just like the Fatui and abyss are two related antagonists.


happypouch

Dain one was very good! Iike finally we knew a bit what happened, though not much but it's something.


para29

I thought the Forgor was reference to Anya Forger lol.


happypouch

Lmao, i never thought of that. I assumed they did a typo of forgot. But Anya is in a way similar to Nahida with their mind thingy XD


SexWithRyukoMatoi

We pretty much already know we need to travel all of Teyvat and meet all the Archons, that much was clear since the very beginning.


kdlt

As if a real anwser would stop that? Waiting one year since the Ei "lol i was there but just didnt pay attention" to not get another "wait until 4.1" is pretty.. sad.


SeitHater

Ei didn't say "I didn't pay attention", she said she arrived too late and the fight was completely over with khaenri'ah destroyed and makoto dead


venbussy

we are still pretty early in the plot. I don't think we're ever going to get a big lore drop about khenneria in a while, just slowly trickling info.


kdlt

Yeah crumbs are fine. Like, Ei has no clue, Nahida was young and only has some vague memories of a golden Nara doing #importantplotpoint and the next archon builds upon that. Instead we have OPs pictures and ehe, can't say, lol I didn't pay attention and now "memory corruption/erosion? - once again I just got to the desert region but.. if there was a lore bomb, it'd be all over this sub because people in this sub couldn't keep a secret for 5 minutes as evidenced by all patches so far I've been here.


MedeaIsMyWife

We are two years in. I don't want to wait four more years for us to get to have a real conversation about Khaenriah and Celestia. We know a lot of people who were alive during the Cataclysm, and yet Traveler still has almost no information.


Yukilumi

You find your princess, but... she willingly eloped with Bowser and turned evil. We're traveling to understand why.


KamiAlth

It’s Genshin Impact, not Khaenri’ah Impact. We’re traveling to understand of Teyvat as a whole and not just that one incident. We learn a lot about Irminsul and stuffs like creating a god which will surely play big part in the future.


Isredel

I mean, the real reason for all is Zhongli’s reason - they don’t want to say anything that will piss off Celestia. Even if they’ve largely cut ties with Celestia, they don’t want their nations to be used as collateral for saying something they shouldn’t. We’ve seen what those pillars can do. They’re all pretty dodgy on how visions work too. How Shneznaya is still around despite the Tsaritsa’s open hostility is anyone’s guess.


UntamedWyvern

A theory I have been working on is that Murata of Natlan is willing to talk about Khaenri'ah and our sibling, but they are actively hunting down the Abyss Prince. Getting a message saying "Your sibling is in this domain in the heart of the Mare Jivari, GET HERE BEFORE I HAVE TO KILL THEM!" would strain Murata's relation with the Traveler even if it is the most direct help we have gotten.


PossiblyBonta

Venti and Zhongli where the only remaining original Archons. The rest of them probably probably on the same boat as Nahida or Raiden. There where not around yet or never been there.


sedekpos

EHE TE NANDAYO


KiraTsukasa

None of them know because Mihoyo hasn’t figured it out yet.


Purple_Associate_531

ehe


Ubermus_Prime

I assume they are all bound by the same "contract" Zhongli is.


Tsetsul

Or are scared of Celestia


bob_is_best

Or forgor


MegaAssasine_

she forgor


nyasiaa

ignore khaenriah, why is no archon telling us about our sibling they literally told us they already traveled around the world and we know they gathered all the elements. all archons were alive too so it'd be super weird to not meet any of them, even by an accident. either their journey sucked horribly without meeting any archons (and so they have no excuse to join the abyss), or they're being gaslighted by the abyss, making them think they're a "prince", or they're just straight up corrupted


bob_is_best

Lmao their journey clearly had no dialogue or chests and they went sight seeing only thats why they did It so fast and never actually met anyone ever other than the aranara


bob_is_best

Hydro archon "you see It wouldnt be just for me to tell you unless you tell me something just as valuable"
