(or at least representative of these past figures if not reincarnated)
For me, it started with all the references to the scarlet king in Alhaitham's character design (listed below) + the theme of reincarnation in Sumeru's storyline (Nahida), then noticing Cyno was ALSO a copy of the Sun King's priest from the past & finally, remembering Nilou's comments from 3.0 after seeing her flower tattoo earlier today (while having the reincarnation theme in the back of my mind & it all came together). And it wouldn't be the first-time a character has been given preference parallels as a hint of their past, so that might be the reason behind her entire theme surrounding flowers & love of dance just as the Goddess of Flowers held.
With all of this in mind, it feels like the 4 friends are unknowingly being pulled back together in their second lives (Nahida, Scarlet King- Alhaitham, Goddess of Flowers- Nilou & the Desert Priest-Cyno)! It's super intriguing to think about!
I don’t understand why genshin fandom always throws their hatred toward straight ships. If you don’t like the ship just go with ever ships you like. It is as easy as that lol
It’s so cute how she does her hands on her hips in response to when everyone else puts their hands on their hips after she says we look like we’re up to no good lol

Reasons Alhaitham is Reincarnated Sun King:
1. Sun King represented by eagle headed Egyptian God Horus (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2-WKyGTUrM&t=130s, shown @ 0:32–0:35 seconds in)
2. Eye of Horus symbol is all over Alhaiatham's clothing
3. Alhaitham name translates to "young hawk/young eagle"
4. Eyes match color+pattern of eye symbol used to represent dead sun king above pyramid in King Deshret & Rukkhadevata Video Cutscene (5 seconds in)
let's see someone says nothing goes between nill and alhaitham now lmao
