Some of you got to the end of 3.3 and were like, "What's a 'scepter'?" Which is valid. Scepters were kinda only talked about in Simulated Universe Expansions and those are very long and often a bit vague. But don't worry if you skipped those text walls, this video is a thorough recap of Gold & Gears + Unknowable Domain - both of which are now VERY important to Amphoreus.
Why?
Well, stick around til the second half of the video to find out.

I do not like time travel, so despite all the latest indicators pointing towards time travel as the source of timey-wimey-weirdness in Nod-Krai (and Teyvat in general), I would like to provide an alternative.
Allow me to introduce you to a new type of time: Book Time!
