The keeper is fading away; the creator has not yet come.
But the world shall burn no more, for you shall ascend.

Character Story 1

A boy and a girl stood amidst the tumult, under an unfamiliar sky.

You were a pair of traveling twins, passing through countless worlds during your journey.

Descending upon a continent named Teyvat, you hoped that you would be able to enjoy your time here.

But as you awoke among the falling stars, you saw the world in turmoil, a cataclysm raging across the land…

You sought to leave this place and move on to the next world, but then an unknown god stood before you, barring the way.

This deity was spotless, floating over a world of chaos.

Looking down on you.

The god took your only kin away, and you were sealed and cast into a deep slumber filled with nightmares…

When you reawakened, the world was changed.

The flames of war raged no longer, and nothing was left that looked familiar.

How long had you been asleep? You had no answers.

Thus, you began a lonely journey, seeking the deity that you had once laid eyes upon…
