The mystery behind the Four Descenders of Genshin Impact has been one that captivated many for so long. However, following the release of Fontaine’s Act V Archon Quest, Masquerade of the Guilty, I think I have enough information to solve the secret behind the Primordial One and the Descenders… And the answer starts with the dragons of Natlan.
Thanks for watching!

I am Kokoconfused – too much information! But it is good information, great video! RIP my Genshin elves 😭
Hmmm…given all of Hoyo's convolutedness is there a chance of Kokomi being a dragon as well? 🥺🥺🥺
This theory is so cracked it deserves a million views. More excited than ever for Natlan!
I swear the travail trailer has alot alot of information for a 4 min video…
This is simply INSANE , I love this video . Genshin lore is amazing and these theories make it even more so .
The amount of effort put into this video can't go unnoticed btw so well done honestly !
What if we get a dan heng type character in Genshin
kokomi really taking huge L, coz now everyone klee is a dragon lol
What a masterpiece of a video, I am in awe. How do you do it? You truly understand this game. I'm prepared for your subs to go from 7.6k to 1mil+
The primordial one did hatch from an egg right? So it makes sense that’s they are part dragon. It’s just that the wings and halo bit makes me definitely believe they are outside of Teyvat.
Bruh what if the Travler sword is Mjolnir
Damn… my mind is blown. So then is Dainsleif also King Deseret? Because we know that the Goddess of Flowers is the Seelie sister, and she was in love with Deseret. I mean it makes so much sense, that Khaenri’ah are people from the third descender, therefore not subject to the curse that primordial one. Ohhh I also think that the primordial one that Primordial One might be a Kevin Kaslana expy. Also I think that Deseret is an Otto Apocalypse expy. Kiana Kaslana being the four shades also is makes alot of sense. Mihoyo loves Kiana, and obviously the sustainer of Heavenly principles is an expy of the Herscher of the Void. But I’m confused to who the hell the sinner is? I was thinking it’s the consciousness of the Third Descender, but also think it could be the dragon king. You definitely deserve more subscribers because your theories are amazing.
How do you explain dain having khanriaeh eyes if he is the third descender?
It makes me think about the fact that traveler never asked Nahida about information on Dainsleif or his information in Irminsul. Or even the other Archons
ITS POSSIBLE DAINSLIEF DOES NOT HAVE THE REAL EYE OF THE FIRST FIELD TILLER !!
During a quest in sumeru, the traveler and an academia researcher go to an appraiser in search of an item but the appraiser showes us something else instead, thinking its what we were looking for. They claim that its the ruin core from the ruin guard ontop of stormterrors lair, siting the battle scars all around it from its fight with the great wolf of mondstat. Does that mean this is genuine? When we saw the eye of the first field tiller at the end of the dainslief quest we see no claw marks around it, does that mean it was switched out? How did it end up in the posession of the appraiser, does dainslief know he does not have the real eye of the first field tiller ? Are the ruin gaurd core and the eye of the first field tiller not the same thing? Paimon was the one that asked if dainslief could have a fake, i feel like this is something that was just glossed over considering the quest isnt voice acted. Could someone please tell me what you think of thiw.
This is canon
what if the primordial one is/was a dark snake? akin to an imoogi, a snake wanting to grow into a full-fledged dragon after waiting a thousand years and forming (or stealing) a dragon (genesis) pearl?
i love how with fontaine release genshin lore community just descended straight into the madness mode
Never stop cooking because I’m convinced!! Also to add to your Kevin being the primordial one theory, if I remember correctly the twins intro cards in CN are told by KK aka Kevin
DUDE we had a same brain moment I /just/ put a video explaining the five suns, I'm so glad someone else pointed it out too❤
bro just went
"Dainslief is the third descender. This isn't a prediction, this is a spoiler" 😂
your brain is so huge
what does this mean for the tsarita collecting the gnoses though? dainsleif's divine half will be resurrected? does the tsarita have any connection to the seelie dainsleif fell in love with? I guess dain may not have his descender memories cuz like bro she be collecting your remains like pokemon, but if his divine half does get resurrected in natlan it's gonna be crazy 😂
14:05 you need to start playing the vsauce music every time you do that "or is it" thing
Bro cooked gourmet 😭
I really really like seeing the shades as kaslanas and the primordial one as kevin himself. That would make me extremely happy because honestly it fits so well? Especially with what welt said in star rail how the same people tend to share similar fates in different universes: kevin the finality, and kevin the usurper 😀
This theory just mind-blowing!
Bro really cooked this time
I do think Kevin would be pretty fitting to be a Descender or the Primordial One. Dude's determination to fufill his obejctives is insane in HI3. And I think it would be a match for the will of a descender since his plans would affect the whole world of HI3 as well.
I also don't think Celestia or whatever, is evil. Just doing what they can to preserve Teyvat, since from the Narwal's descriptions mentions puts the idea that there's something that impedes outside stuff to contact Teyvat. And there's also the K.K mentioned in the Travelers' descriptions.
I'd love for the Primordial One and his four shades to represent different Kaslanas. Like Kallen, Kiana, Kevin, Bianka, Siegfried. Maybe even Cecília, who is Siegfrieds wife.
