  1. Let me tell you a story, the final story arc of Honkai 3rd part 1: There was once a scientist who lost her entire planet in a disaster where an entity from the Abyss preyed on the dreams of her civilisation, she became the sole survivor and continued the final work of her people, to find a way to bring back her civilisation and world. She suffered in loneliness for centuries only accompanied by the backups of the brainwaves of her people she hopes to bring back if possible, these "people" exist in a dream like data space, continuously playing out in an endless cycle as she fails to find any solution for countless centuries.

    One day she came to a conclusion, to be able to bring back a whole planet and civilisation, she has to become comparable to the entity that destroyed her planet, she has to become a god. So she made a clone of herself to take care of the ongoing work as she prepares to undergo a process that will transform her as she absorbed power from beyond. This second who came retained as much humanity as possible, but was not allowed to be human, she was merely there to sustain the principles and processes to keep the entire project alive.

    After even more centuries the newly made god reawakened, she checked on the work of her sustainer, who has now prepared a planet for her to bring back the civilisation. The god has lost nearly all her humanity in the process of becoming a god, becoming more about logic and authority, which she believes is needed to reconstruct an entire world. She was unsatisfied with the lifeless planet even as she seeded it with new life, it's a mere imitation of what she intends to achieve, so she continuously destroyed and reseeded the world for countless cycles, all while her more human-like clone watched in despair, herself slowly losing her own humanity over time.

    Each time the world was destroyed and awaiting rebirth, the god would enter hibernation and meditation to save energy, but this time she awakened to a different scenario, an interstellar traveler and her ark which contained seeds of life and technology to terraform a planet had crashed landed on her planet. This 3rd descender herself was in hibernation, so the god took advantage of the ark's technology as well as the traveler's unique ability, the ability to shape reality as she paints with the colours of the rainbow.

    The god decided to split what remains of her own humanity left into 7 colours, making 7 clones of herself of different authority representing different aspects of her personality to govern the planet and further advance the process and experiment of bringing back her world. Even with the 7, she was unsatisfied with the world she has made, she continued destroying and rebirthing the world in countless samsaras.

    Then a 4th traveler descended on this planet, summoned by a mysterious entity, met the 7 as well as the 2nd who came, turns out she was a comrade of the one who descended before her. Now we as the 4th and 3rd who descended on this planet is working with the 7 and the 2nd to defeat the god and make her realise where she has gone wrong in her desperation to bring back her world.

    And the person who summoned us in this story is also a comrade of the 3rd Descender Griseo and 4th Descender Fu Hua. Btw this person who summoned them is called Su, creator of the bubble universe "Sumeru", has the ability to view and interact with bubble universes across the Hoyoverse; In Genshin he is Alhaitham, but Alhaitham definitely has nothing to do with summoning the Siblings. Su summoned Fu Hua(4th) to help Griseo(3rd) and in the process save the world from the 1st's mistakes. What happened in the end? 1st was defeated and the 2nd took all her power, leaves the planet to let them flourish on their own and she finally gets freedom.

    There's too much parallel with this current Honkai 3rd arc and Genshin to ignore, in fact the 3rd descender in this story Griseo, once had a long speculated and debunked theory to be the Primordial One in Genshin as she had the power to manipulate reality and terraform worlds with her ark and mission to travel the stars to be the backup of Earth and humanity.

  2. About Beastly Rifts, if you're interested, there was a discussion of it some time ago on Lore subreddit and i have made a post there compiling the most prominent info from all the discussions. The post called "Analysis of Beastly Rift" and should be under "Lore Resource" tag.

    And if you're only interested in translation and want to look stuff up from 0 on your own:

    Outer circle: Lux se effundant in mentes dei, Ex Culmine lucis in magno elementorum

    Middle Circle: Messor Phaos Pater Corax Lympha Miles Leaena

    Inner Circle: Opera Rotas Sator Arepo Tenet

    It's really interesting, especially since they never really came into play and you can find a separate one on the institute territory (near one of the southern waypoints i believe) with camera setup right next to it

  3. doesn't irmuinsel have records of lumine because she was part of the previous Samsara/cycle
    this will explain why dispute traveling the world , no one, especially the archons don't know lumine
    the siblings finished their journey, their cycle/samsara already .

  4. Aster please, when you know everything, make a video and explain this:Our main character said that he/she was wandering around 2 months before we fish out paimon.(and how can we fish paimon when paimon later on tought us how to fish)but before we started traveling with paimon we didn't know anyone?So I have theory that our mc memory is earsed or something like that

  5. SATOR, AREPO, TENET is an ancient mystic square of letters that was discovered in it's earliest forms at Pompeii. Sator Square on Wikipedia. The Genshin Lore subreddit correctly identifies the Corax, miles, lympha with Initiatory ranks in the Mithraic Mysteries

  6. I wonder if the events in the opening cut scene took place long before the summoning, and the summoning only awoke one twin from being sealed. If the keeper later depleted her power fighting the cataclysm, then it might only be a matter of time that the seal on the second twin would fail. Are both twins preparing to take down a keeper, not knowing that she is powerless, each by their own and opposite means? Did the keeper use the last of her power to release the seal on the second twin to try to fix things, and become paimon?

  8. I've got an idea 😀 WE are travelers .. that's basic thing 😀 we are just witnesses in this world… when game ends final note will be something like that'' Thanks for being with us, you are not as powerful beings as you think'' .. it's so funny.. my advice will be just enjoy with this game and stop fabricating these theories 😀

  9. I'll just assumed that at certain point Descenders cannot enter Teyvat again. So Kaenriah sent outside a bait to form a connection, kind of like a fishers throw a bait into a river when fishing.

    And then when Lumine back to Teyvat she knows she'll get cubed by the Unknown Goddess. After she got cubed, she immediately wake up and run to Kaenriah, only to saw the city got wrecked.

    Meanwhile Aether only wake up 500 years later since he's not from Teyvat so the cube effects took longer than Lumine.

  10. The three rings of Latin have been adequately addressed elsewhere and I'm sure someone will go over the details, however, it's one thing to translate them with Google and another to figure out the real meaning. Well – having said that the smaller two rings are just magical sounding harry Potter nonsense.

    But the third (which I recognized from the original runes) is the same message as appears on the Lector's prayer book, which is a modified version of the words on Mona's circle, the hydro seal on the door of what became Mona's house and the Hypostases when they cast spells. It is (in Latin)

    ex culmine lucis in magno elementorum

    lux se effundat in mentes dei

    and the Abyssal version is:

    Ego sum fatus Abyssi ergo mondo

    ex culmine lucis in magno obscuritatis

    lux se effundat in mentes Abysso

    And at first I though these words were just some magical sounding filler, but as the years have gone on, the overall plot has kinda made these statements more and more relevant because they speak of, or pray for, either the Primordial One or the Second Throne to absorb the elemental energies of the Light Realm. There are many translations from the Latin and here's mine:

    From the most perfect radiance within the supreme elements

    let energy pour into the minds of god

    Abyss version:

    I am the fate of the Abyss, therefore I say

    From the most perfect desolation within the void

    let energy pour into the minds of the Abyss

    Now at this time we also have the Primordial One gathering the authority of the Sovereigns ("most perfect radiance") of the 7 elements ("the supreme elements") into thrones presumably using the absorptive quality of Celestial energy and it's higher tier status over elemental energy with "the minds of god" a reference to the will of higher tier energy.

    Some similar sort of energy collection plan appears to be going on in the Abyss, where there are "dark currents" the equivalent of Ley Lines (according to Enkanomiya).

    You can see that the two statements are like mirror images except the Abyss version has the added first line, "I am the fate of the Abyss, therefore I say" which is a pretty obvious thing for an Abyss Lector to say but also reminiscent of the "Fortune Lector" from Caribert.

  11. The beastly rifts remind me of when a melusine said that traveller appeared to be a huge monster that can devour the world (forgot the quest name, probably the one w/ the artist melusine) Melusines have a special sight, so maybe they could sense something abt the traveller?

  12. How Rene describes what he wants out of becoming a descender sound like each descender
    Protection of the world would be the player character.
    sustain the world would be the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles
    create the world would be Phanes who came first.
    and destroy the world, the third descender. who tried to take down Celestia

  13. "It is mentioned that Aether fall asleep in ages"
    Is it possible that the 3rd descender is Aether and the current Aether is not the real Aether? (I'm not trying to make a theory, I'm just curious.)

  14. I understand all of the Celestia hate, but I feel like 99% of the people of Teyvat just want to live out a normal life and the other 1% get nukes dropped on everyone because they tried too hard to become Honkai characters. I guess I’m questioning the morality of the righteous few, like the descenders, to take it upon themselves to try and shatter the illusion that, let’s say, the people of Mondstadt and Liyue are straight chilling in. 😅

  15. I still very strongly think the abyss sibling was summoned into teyvat, while the traveler arrived to the world on their own. The abyss sibling didn't descend upon teyvat, they were rather summoned into it, so they do not classify as a descender. The fact that they made their first appearance in khaenriah supports this too. So the process of summoning, I think, somehow binds them to the laws of teyvat. It's sort of similar to how rhinedottir's summons "do not belong to this world" yet they are not descenders. I think the art of khemia might be summoning things from outside teyvat into teyvat. The riftwolves are very invasive species (the golden wolflord is described as a twisted beast from another world), and the all devouring narwhal literally makes an appearance in a cutscene in honkai star rail lol.

    As for the beastly rifts, funnily enough that's not the first time we're hearing of the word combination "beastly rift", as the event introducing the golden wolflord was also named that. The tutorial for the beastly rifts in fontaine state that it will summon monsters from another world (those being riftwolves) which will then try to destroy the crystals that are restraining the formation. So those crystals are there to suppress the formations. So because of that, I think the beastly rifts are just the riftwolves' methods of invasion, and there was a beastly rift all the way in tsurumi island which summoned the golden wolflord. I don't think it has anything to do with the travelers, or khaenri'ahs methods of summoning.
    One thing worth mentioning though is that the beastly rifts on Elynas aren't the only ones out there. There's two more, with one of them being towards the east of the experimental field generator on the mountain, and the other being in a locked room located in the underwater ruins near narzissenkreuz ordo. This one is special, because this room also features the purple goo from the chasm, and the red crystals from dragonspine. Both of these rifts have a camera near them, so this leads me to believe these are Mary-ann's experiments.

  16. sator arepo tenet are three of five words thac compose the "sator square", that was a latin woldplay found on many old roman buildings, the meaning is unknown exactly, but many think it was just a woldplay, since the full square is composed by "sator, arepo, arepo tenet, opera, rotas", wich can be read the same way backwards, and also, if composed in a square putting each of the five letter words in a line and lining them up, you can read the exact same sentence if you read the columns of the square, both forwards and backwards.

    Sorry fo any spelling errors, english is not my first language.
