Star Rails Aeons have their roots in Gnosticism, but Gnostic Aeons tend to come in pairs... so why dont Star Rails Aeons come in pairs? Or DO they come in pairs and weve just never noticed?

Did you know in some Gnostic sects there arent just seven archons, but twelve? Seven of them rule the heavens, and five rule the abyss.
Soooo... seven archons and five sinners in Teyvat? How apropos.

Somethings never really sat quite right with me in regards to the Primordial One... MAY have been Phanes? Why is there room for doubt?!
Well, in this video lets dig a little deeper and maybe we can answer that infamous question - Who exactly IS the Primordial One? Is it Phanes? Or someone else?

![[4.0] Archon & World Quest Recap and Analysis - Genshin Impact](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/jzENIVuvK2Q/mqdefault.jpg "[4.0] Archon & World Quest Recap and Analysis - Genshin Impact
This video covers Acts One and Two of Light Rain Falls Without Reason, the Narzissenkruez Institute World Quest and the Melusine World Quest. It also references Lyneys first story quest and a couple of exploration objectives available as of version 4.0.
These recaps are concise as the video primarily focuses on what we learned from the quests rather than going over exactly what happened. Please dont expect a lot of mind bendy theorizing in this video - while there are some mini theories towards the end of the video, most of the topics I want to theorize are will get their own dedicated videos, so dont fret if theres something not covered here. Chances are itll show up in a future video.
