Last time I talked about Fischl's personal growth which could factor into the final Act of her story. But that was the surface. Now we go deeper.
This is everything the "narrator" said during the Domain. So we start off with Amy possibly first starting her own region during "the Time of Chaos" about 600 years before "the Era of the Saints." So based on Fischl's weapon chaos is maybe a reference to the Archon War? And Era of the Saints is likely the current era of the Seven. This would line up if Amy was an Ars Goetia demon name for an Archon. Also the fact that she was sympathetic to creatures and decided to protect them works towards the task of the original Seven meaning she could even have likely been a Sovereign Archon. (Now you might be thinking wait that's confirmed! Oz calls her the Sovereign of the Immernachtreich! Nope. Well not in the same way at least. The word he used isn't the 王 for Sovereign like the other Archons.) Then the migration part is exactly what we know both Venti and Zhongli did with their people. The night ravens would then take on the same role as the adepti, the knights, the youkai (and more recently the Tenryou) for the Immernachtreich.
As for her ideal it's pretty clearly art. She could have gone by the title of God of Art, God of Theater, God of Culture something to that effect. Which btw actually brings her close to both Zhongli and Yae who are interested or even directly related to art themselves. Zhongli loves telling stories and sharing his vast knowledge. Yae set up a whole publishing company to jot down everything notable about Teyvat that she can. Whether or not Amy held her ideal for the same purpose as those two remains to be seen BUT in the end it really did help didn't it? Thanks to her passion for theater her history was recorded and then human Amy was able to read all about herself. Plan B is working like a charm!
And then there's her other names. As we know all of these Archons have different titles and different names. Zhongli is also Morax is also Rex Lapis. That's his human name followed by his Ars Goetia Archon name followed by his Sovereign Archon name/title. Fischl technically has the human name Amy but that's also her Archon name (she's actually at the same rank as Morax) but then there's Soteria. So another path we can take here is something like Istaroth whose name is from the Ars Goetia Astaroth but that's based on the Greek Aphrodite. Soteria is actually a Greek Goddess too the Goddess of Deliverance. It's actually an epithet of Persephone one of the Gods of the Greek Underworld. Remember how Evernight at least in English is also another name for Tokoyokoku the Okinawan Underworld?
I haven't found any direct connections between Amy and Persephone but there is this: Amy in lore was banished but will eventually return and claim the 7th throne of Heaven. Persephone ate the fruit of Hades so for half the year she's banished to the Underworld. In terms of our Amy she was defeated and the Abyss are now seeking to return her to her original self which they think is the Night Mother.
Soteria is also 1 of 3 Aspects of Justice namely Redemption which relates her to the angel of mercy Zadkiel who is responsible for taking on the sins of humans a gimmick to encourage prayer. Fischl is said to do that too in the books. (Also her Constellation 2 is literally "Devourer of All Sins")
And that Abyss thing goes a long way too. First Amy is a demon of fire and the way both Fischl and the Night Mother were supposed to restart the world was to burn the old one away. (But burning also seems to be a common theme on how the world was supposed to be destroyed to be remade so it could be nothing. In the books Asura Khan also burns the world after defeating Fischl.) On the other hand we go back to Persephone as the God of Deliverance and we can see how that relates to the quest we just played. Oz created the prophecy that Fischl would eventually save everyone in the Immernachtreich after it was destroyed.
But it's also weird right? Fischl is for sure Electro and even in the fiction her Burst is the Thundering Retribution. But in the books she's burning the old world so wouldn't that be Pyro? And finally she also has command over darkness which isn't even a known element so what's going on? Well that's probably my other theory about Celestia and elemental purity. I said that the reason the Seven Sovereigns were chosen was that they specialized in only a single element. Decarabian had Anemo and Zhongli has Geo. Anybody not fitting into that mold was eliminated, forced to flee back to the Dark Sea or ended up dead like Andrius who could use both Anemo and Cryo. Amy and Oz aka Naberius were among the eliminated. So it could be that Amy was able to use both Electro and Pyro and maybe even some Dark element we no longer have access to. (I would say it's different than the kind of dark magic the Abyss uses though. I would also say the Abyss might not realize that either.)
She may have even been struck down rebelling against Phanes once the Archon War started the selection process for the pure Archons. She says, "may my people be freed from the shackles of ancient decrees." What ancient decrees? Maybe like the Heavenly Principles? It could be something like this that got the attention of the Abyss.
Anyway we also have a shoutout to her Archon level powers because how did she build her Immernachtreich? That's right. She carved out mountains and oceans and then gave her people castles and towns. Just like Venti. Just like Zhongli.
Ok that's all still up in the air until we get more specifics.
What we do have more specifics for is the monster she was fighting. This is pretty interesting because while sure there's the human Amy version of the Tasraque which is a metaphor for her personal struggle there is very likely a real Tasraque that Archon Amy fought.
Side Note: Could her supposed Pyro powers have come from the Tasraque? It turns out there was no big reveal with her eye color change. The monster just hit her in the eye with its flames. But maybe this part of the story actually played out with Amy absorbing the flames into her Auge der Verurteilung and just like a Geovishap it infused Pyro into her.
Anyway this thing is most like a French dragon monster called the Tarasque.
What are the details about the Tasraque? It invaded by swimming through the sea right? The Tarasque is also a dragon that dwells in the water and lurks there waiting to attack. And in French folklore it was eventually subdued by a saint, Saint Martha.
With that in mind in terms of Genshin there's a likely candidate for this Tasraque thing.
In the Wishful Drops event we learned that the original Hydro Archon wanted to connect all nations on Teyvat. To do this she sent Oceanids to all the freshwater lakebeds in each region. But as they referred to themselves as spies even we were suspicious of their intentions. Who's to say Amy wasn't too? It could be that Amy was informed of the appearance of "a creature that hides in the waters" in her region and decided to attack. We may even know exactly who this specific Oceanid was.
According to the description this Oceanid named Urania (the one in Liyue is named Rhodeia) was separated from her freshwater dominion so she lashed out in the Vagabond Sword event.
And the misunderstanding could even have a mythological tie-in. The Tarasque was a vicious monster that the French couldn't defeat so they called on Saint Martha for help. And since this is all Christian all a saint had to do to quell a vicious beast that all of France's armed forces couldn't stop was sprinkle some Holy Water on it and say a prayer. The Tarasque immediately repented and became docile so she took it back to greet the French. But because it was this scary monster that had threatened them for so long their immediate reaction was to kill it. And of course then Martha scolded them and told them to repent their sins and they all became good little Christian boys and girls.
So we've got an Archon, her history in the Archon War, creating her own nation to protect people just like all the original members of the Seven did, why Phanes might have targeted her, why the Abyss think they need her and even an old enemy of hers that could have all been a misunderstanding!
And Mona said Immernachtreich didn't really have a history. What kind of genius astrologist are you anyway?
