What is wrong with the Moon in Teyvat? Why does it not act in the way we expect? We will begin to scratch the surface of this mystery in this video as we investigate fables of the Moon from mysterious figures, murmurs of a false sky from Scaramouche and mentions of a Sheltered Eternity from Dainsleif. What is Celestia’s goal? Is it suppressing humanity? What could it be hiding.

This is the first part of a series of videos, so I will expand upon things relating to the Moon, the Goddesses, the Firmament as well as all the books I mention.
There appears to be a bit of artefacting with my voice audio, this only occurred after being uploaded to youtube. I'm using new equipment so I'm still trying to work out the best way to master the audio, hopefully it wont be too noticeable/distracting for people.
BGM list in in the description if anybody is curious.
Something else I noticed is that the moon passes INFRONT of the floating island. I always thought that was a little strange too
Off-topic: I noticed now, in the Venti sidequest, Venti was just a wisp, possibly a anemo spirit. It was the companion of the Nameless Bard, and when it became the Anemo Archon Barbatos, it took the form of the Nameless Bard. So it got me thinking, Venti as the wisp kinda reminds of the pet the Traveler will get that is Endora. And Endora will be the Traveler's companion. Is it possible that Endora might become the next Hydro Archon and would take the Traveler's form?
I will once again point to the fact that even their chinese titles, refer to demons, their names, are demonic, including paimon's, teyvat derives from the hebrew name for noah's ark.
The archons aren't gods, they are demons who tried to destroy humanity and teyvat is the last place that was saved.
"The moon cracked open and a humanoid being fell from it. It fell into the water. seconds later, an entity appeared, dubbed the Moon Beast…"
12:11 isnt it heavily implied that kingdom of Khaenri'ah was destroyed by the archons because of their technological advancements? might be wrong tho
In gnosticism the archons are the angels of the demiurge, charged with keeping up the ilusion of the material world, also that place in celestia were Vanesa found herself when she ascended was very sinilas to a panopticon, a particularly oppresive kind of prision
Wait. Are you see in the wish character animation??.
oh damn ive never thought about most of these
12:21 "Celestia resembles what some have pointed out as a prison with a tower in the center."
There is a name for this kind of prison: Panopticon.
So this is what an actual good genshin impact video looks like? Hmm
Interesting, subbed.
I' ve been waiting for someone to actually go through the books in Genshin and to come with entertaining videos like thus. Bravo man!
Makes me think about the dome/firmament irl
Fascinating
Very interesting. Think you could be onto something. Celestia is sus. I noticed the moon is always full and I read about the three moon sisters. Was there originally 3 moons? or did they reside over the one moon?
now that Teyvat is a snowglobe submarine submerged in the depth of a dark endless sea, i wonder how our Traveler twins got into Teyvat in the form of what looked like a pair of shooting star. did they pierced through the sky barrier to get through Teyvat? did they got through the endless sea to get to Teyvat? were they aware of that? since they travel between worlds, did they also found another snowglobe world like Teyvat before travelling to Teyvat?
I think you should play the patch 1.4 archon quest and re evaluate your theory about the abyss
Nice analysis. And i see that you are an avid ff8 and ff9 player too!
I remember someone mentioned that the moon covers Celestia if you stood by the Anemo Hypostasis location, and they were right.
And another thing worth mentioning is, if you go to the Qinge Village, Celestia would be little tilted and way closer. But if you go to the Golden House domain, it'll look way further, more tilted, and shorter, in other words, rotated.
They officially destroyed Khaenriah. Your theory is holding strong. Celestia sus
I'm impressed, and mind blown,
If this is all true then Mihoyo must of done this on purpose, and they must have thought of this, since the very beginning of the game, and for you to be able to figure this out, or even make a theory about all this, is mind blowing
After the last chapter, I think we are in Celestia right now. Because we can find the ruins of the old kingdom that was there where we are, including the ruin guards. And I remember when someone mentioned that the island where the spiral abyss is located now was actually the top of the wold. So we are in Celestia and the entire old world is below water.
The two main characters could be the other moons
Teyvat is the Ark and the Flood is Honkai.
This video: "Noah's Snow globe because moon corpse."
Me about a week ago: "Oh, Moon! Pretty picture opportunity with Keqing, best waifu!"
sits at a beach in Guyun Stone Forest
Me holding Kamera: "Moon is always so bright and pretty, makes for GREAT PICTURES!"
My brain now: Slurp Serotonin
I guess this channel is the my name is byf for genshin impact
Isnt the old anemo archon called decarabian not carabian
Did you take the idea from IslandXD?
Not being rude but if you did you should atleast give him credit
idk why when i watched this i got chills
Paimoon
Thats some grade A Content here. You got my sub.
You really giving me fate flashbacks
Didn't the destruction of K'HAENRIAH cause the world to turn upside down!? Maybe that has something to do with the moon being the way it is
Im guessing we'll discover more about Teyvat's world formation when we reach Sumeru at least. It's the region of wisdom and knowledge (and Paimon mentions Sumerians can read the stars in the protag's voicelines).
Wow, this was really interesting! Didn't know there was so many possible Hebrew influences in the game, like I knew about the Hypostasis names but didn't think about the name Teyvat and them having similar design to Biblical Cosmology. 🤣 Again, really interesting and an amazing video!
"as the common saying goes 'celestia sus'"
The scene in 4:14 with the cloud slowly disappearing to reveal Celestia just when he mentions a great catastrophe…. Bruh, the level of cinematography
Why is this so Interesting, you're talking about a moon in a game but i still can't stop watching
I really love your genshin theorys!!! Since with the new quest being available now, will you include in the next video as well?
