[1.0] The Mara Struck - Honkai: Star Rail Lore Ashikai 2023-05-24 | Our first venture into the Xianzhou Alliance's Luofu ship took the spotlight off of the stellarons for a little while and gave us our first REAL taste of what it really means to live under the influence of an Aeon... or two. We barely touched on Qlipoth in Belobog, and we learned very little of Nanook on the Space station, but Lan and Yaoshi's presence can be felt everywhere aboard the Xianzhou Fleet. So in this video, let's take a look at the history of the Xianzhou Alliance, the birth of the Aeon Lan, the power of Yaoshi and those who believe in them.

[3.5] Who is the Sinner? - Caribert Archon Quest Recap & Analysis (part 2/2) - Genshin Impact Ashikai 2023-03-12 | [IMPORTANT]I'm so sorry you guys, something went wrong with the Youtube upload and there's about a minute of black screen towards the end. Unfortunately I was too late to catch this before most people watched it and I don't want to lose their comments. The only "fix" I can do is cut the section out because that's the only post-release editing Youtube allows, so I have done that. Apologies to channel members since it's their names that have been cut.Not quite a full-fledged theory, but too fleshed out to just be considered observations. In part two of the post Caribert Archin Quest recap & analysis, we'll be talking about the identity of the "Sinner" - and boy or boy, is there a lot to discuss.PART ONE: youtube.com/watch?v=Cv_F0bQItn4**TIMESTAMPS**0:00 Introduction1:00 Overview4:20 Irmin6:10 King of Dahri9:10 Samiel11:30 Forbidden Knowledge13:00 Khaenri'ah's Heirs16:50 Symbolism18:55 Historical References21:31 Final Thoughts (and tiny theories)**RELATED VIDEOS**IslandXD's theory on the Sinner: youtube.com/watch?v=wG64S5VqBtMLittle Onion that Could's theory on Nahida: youtube.com/watch?v=uTiSrmAHucE**CITATIONS & FURTHER READING**Related theory on Reddit: reddit.com/r/Genshin_Lore/comments/10t6pnj/why_king_deshret_might_be_irminDifferences in the perception of sound by age: https://decibelpro.app/blog/sounds-only-kids-can-hear/Queen of Sheba: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_of_Sheba Parzifal: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ParzivalPercival: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PercivalParsifal: genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Parsifal Fisher King: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher_KingDeshret’s Glass Goblet: genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Deshret%27s_Glass_Goblet Freemasonry: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreemasonryMasonic Order: http://www.knightstemplar.org/KnightTemplar/articles/masonictemplary.htm Templar Knight Mythology: thetemplarknight.com/holy-grail-templar-tony-mcmahon Iblis: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IblisPeacock Angel: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taw%C3%BBs%C3%AE_MelekSilver Twig: genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Silver_TwigDark Statuette: genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Dark_StatuetteKnights Templar: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knights_TemplarSamiel (Samael): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SamaelKnights Templar (freemasonry): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knights_Templar_(Freemasonry)Swan Knight: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knight_of_the_SwanSchwanenritter: genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/SchwanenritterFisher King: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher_King

[3.1] Lore Highlights - The Lore of Sumerus Desert and Weinlesefest Ashikai 2022-10-18 | I really love exploring these massive and incredibly detailed areas but WOW is collecting all the lore in them an absolute nightmare. The shortened patches are not helping either. Still, loved the desert. Tons of fun!Quick note - The only thing I didn't mention in the video was the crumb we learned about Capitano and Varka. It's because it was basically, "Capitano went to Natlan" and that was it, so I forgot all about it until after the video rendered. (apologies a couple of the transitions seem to have not rendered properly and I missed them during proofing)**TIMESTAMPS**1:10 Sandstorms and the Wall of Samiel3:21 The Mad Scholars5:05 Knowledge Capsules6:29 Rukkhadevata & Kusanali13:28 Eleazar16:55 The Golden Slumber (The Scarlet King)20:03 Rapidfire Round (Lorebits)**RELATED THEORIES YOU SHOULD WATCH**Purpose of the Celestial Nails - youtu.be/VnpgWjShKXUElemental Energy is Radioactive - youtu.be/s7re2udohzcScaramouche Videos - youtu.be/ATOI_yaN450youtu.be/3vNddrd1f7Eyoutu.be/Diiuf48wesc
