Now that's interesting

You guys know I'm a big fan of looking back at the story we've already played. It's the premise behind my whole Archon Quest release schedule for my youtube channel. Getting a fresh look at old quests after a long time let's us take brand new information we learned since then and apply it back to these older experiences.


I got up the VS Ei Round 1 fight recently but I've got another one already.

This is a panel from the Genshin manhua. I'm sure we've all seen it before. Only now after so much time it reads differently. With my big theory out now and also my idea on who Paimon is this picture tells a slightly different story.


Vennessa here is asking Venti about Celestia. So in the next panel it's pretty clear this is what Venti thinks of. Three ominous shadows on a red backdrop. Three. What's missing here?


Since Enkanomiya we know that Celestia is the HQ of Phanes who created 4 shining shades. That would mean 5 gods should make up Celestia. But Venti only thinks about 3. So based on my theory that's because Istaroth was the only shade to help the Enkanomiyans and also co-ruled Mondstadt with Venti for a while. And Paimon is part of the other plan Phanes has for us so she can't be up there either.


Back when this came out it would have just looked like an arbitrary illustration of shady figures. Now that we know more it looks like MiHoYo specifically depicted the only 3 gods left in Celestia. And I already have an idea on who those 2 shades would be if you remember. Will we actually fight them? I have no idea. I suppose if MiHoYo wanted to drag out the Celestia chapter of the game we definitely could. It would play out like any game where the final boss has lieutenants that get in the way during most of the game before we embarrass them enough times that the big guy decides to do it himself.
