Speaking of animations, I got to work on a SUPER cool animation with Genshin Impact and HoYoVerse and you can check it out here! kzhead.info/sun/fKlthbZlpph6YGw/bejne.html It's a summary of Genshin's EARLIEST history!
I will definitely check it out. Also just FYI I came to ur KZhead just now page because I’ve been wondering about you and if u had new content. Ur my favorite Genshin related “KZheadr” which says a lot cuz I watch a lot of em. Congrats on getting to work on the animation. I look forward to seeing it.
@@imikokodama3054you’re super sweet thank you so much!!! I hope u enjoy it 🥹🥹 and thank you so much that means a lot to me!
Yep she is the best
"People may think paimon, Traveller and Lunime are moon sisters." Ah yes, Aether, my favourite moon sister.
🤣 he's my favorite shishtar
Wdym? Aether is the best sister you'll ever see
Even hoyo drew him as a fem boy in a Collab so it works
Aether is the best girl of them all wym ✨
💀
It's crazy how a fan animation can lead up to Genshin's lore, It's like HoyoFair is giving us more information about Genshin's story without knowing.
right~!!!!! my dream is that one day they'll animate Pale Princess and the Six Pygmies! ; - ; my favorite book so far!
@@MinsleifIs that the book with the boar princess? Or is that another one?
@@ATMEIDAREYAIDOUBLEDAREYAanother one
@@motemo8413 I see
I mean that fan made animation is literally just story based on genshin book (moonlit bamboo forest) so yeah if you used your imagination while reading the book then you will interpret it too just like on the animation.
three moons the sky moon the dream moon the abyssal moon
Welkin moon lady Teyvat's moon Abyss moon
I love this theory bc it still leaves space for Paimon to be the 4th shade
it gives her an option to be other shades too instead of just istaroth!
Now what if, this is just a theory During the ancient calamity, when the 3 sisters fought, the 4th shade got caught in the conflict, the carriage destroyed and the 4th fell from the carriage We fish paimon out of a lake(?) Near the the unknown island associated with time(aka aria aka istaroth), if aria was the only one alive, then maybe she made so That the 4th fell near that island to make sure she could watch her? Therefore paimon could be the 4th shade BUT HEY THATS JUST A THEORY AND GAME THEORY
@@90_percentshroomNot only that, we as the players know that Istaroth is capable of Kronokinesis (i.e halting, fowarding, reversing, and traveling time). Whenever we use the time function PAIMON is the ONLY thing that moves. Not even the traveler. Kinda proves that she's keeping an eye on her...Remember after the Summer Archon quest when N(? I don't remember the letter😭) told the Traveler and Paimon that even if the memories are altered in Irminsul, their overall fate can not? If I'm speculating correctly maybe Istaroth decided to spare Paimon out of pity or some greater purpose, leading her to engage with Sonett and Canon in the Final Composition. I feel like there's a Fourth part of the Aria, Sonnet, and Canon trio. Maybe... Harmony? Not to mention Harmony brings everything together. Perhaps she will face Aria in the Final Duet. Now hear me out, Paimon said she "fell" into the lake (And we all know Genshin *loves* to add splashes of angels and the Ars Goetia into the mix) and "falling" refers to an Angel(Paimon) getting kicked out of Heaven (Celestia or the Silver Carriage which we know is in the sky floating above Teyvat *Which is Hebrew for Ark* 😮) and losing their powers and becoming Demons. Everybody Major from Celestia has an Ars Goetia name which is Filled with Demons that have fallen from heaven and some had their memories which is intrinsically linked to Power, corrupted. The Law of Erosion is not only losing your power but your *memories* as well. When I read your comment I had the mental image of Paimon getting pushed out of the Silver Carriage (if it's a Literal carriage at all) and falling ☄️ through the sky, burning her memories and power up, reducing her to the form we know today. In real world astronomy comets are asteroids that reach extremely high speeds, causing them to ignite and burn material for short periods of time and reducing their overall form until there is nothing left. Paimon was nearing the end of her "short" period of time. Her memories and power burnt away, her Divine Flame only extinguished by the waters near her sisters island where the traveler found her. Not to mention the Ars Goetia description of Paimon says the Paimon can stay underwater indefinitely if so choosed to do so. There's also no Indication of how long Paimon was underwater. Her memories would have been erased as her power diminished so she probably has no idea how long she was underwater. In genshin we know that when a Divine Being loses their power they get reduced to a child like form. This would explain why NO ONE in current era Teyvat knows who or what exactly Paimon is. If we look at the description that the melusine gave Paimon her string *could* be compared to as the reigns of the carriage.maybe it was paimon's turn to drive and after Aria defeated Sonett and Canon she casted Paimon down without killing her. The *Body* of Aria that we see could just be an illusion. Like she faked her death after exiling paimon and killing the other. Perhaps she did this so paimon's memories wouldn't be triggered to come back by knowing Aria was alive subconsciously. I don't remember anyone mentioning Istaroth directly by name in front of paimon either so she wouldn't make the connection. Leaving her there at the lake for the traveler to find knowing that he was there and could fix the grievances of the world. Thus Paimon still fulfills her role of Harmony. Sorry for the regurgitation of speculation 🙏🏿😅
@@90_percentshroom i love this! but also a funny little detail, the image of us fishing her out is actually the ruin guard island in guyun stone forest! you can check it out yourself, i think its pretty strange they took the image there instead of in mondstadt..
What if aria transform into paimon because when we click the i con she the only one moveing and when we meet paimon for the first time she already know about the teyvat@@Minsleif
A quick little thing on the Moon Sisters, though I'm unsure how it will fit in... If you go into your teapot, and cycle it through night several times, you will find there are 3 different and distinct skies there. Only one of those skies is the one we see at night in Teyvat proper. Are we seeing the homes of all 3 sisters in the sky there?
which realm is this in? the ones I use don't have a day/night cycle
@@marismoments39 i think the island and mountain realms cycle thru day/night iirc
@@marismoments39 I'm using the Emerald Peak realm currently. I discovered this trait of different skies by accident, I wanted a night sky picture with the moon at a specific point, but set the time passed that point. Imagine my surprise when I set the time right, but the night sky itself was not a completely different one! (we won't go into how the night sky doesn't move either lol)
@@fitchlekvoda8721 oh what!!! that's so cool??? I'll check that out when I can omg
The statue in Inazuma looks oddly like the Welkin Moon girl. The wiki also says that the character portrayed in that statue went by the moniker “Thousand Armed, Hundred Eyed” which may be a reference to a real-life figure named Guanyin who apparently is also LITERALLY named Kannon in Japan which blew my mind a bit Also, personally i’ve always thought Paimon, the Unknown God (Asmoday), and Welkin Moon are the 3 moon sisters
I love how you make these videos so people understand Genshin lore
it's my pleasure :')
@@Minsleifbestie..it’s my birthday soon..another KZheadr said there could be a relation between the perinheri series and ei due to her baleful moon abilities also sort of of tying her to the moon sisters..maybe you could a video on this
@@Minsleifand also..I think ei is connected to the moon sisters since she also possesses a moon in her realm of consciousness..and in every other game she in…like Acheron of honkai star rail and Hersher of origin in honkai impact all having moons in their domains
The kairos achievement is also achieved by doing time trials furthering the possibility of it referring to the goddess of time.
"neuvilletes great great grandpappy" 💀💀💀💀
7:40, i think its because of perspective, from the eyes of the enkanomiyan people ( and Nabu Malikata ), "The Second Who Came" brought destruction to teyvat because of pure will of destruction, they never meet and know nibelung, thus, they categorize Nibelung as a new entity ( Invader ), different from Neuvilette, that call the war "The War of Vengeance" since he's looking through the lens of the dragons.
Wait this is so interesting, but do we know who actually won cause they came together to fight the third descender right ? I think that's why nuevie and furina are not on murderous terms?
Just making sure, this is NOT official lore ,or officially released by hoyo. The book are ofc and the animation is splendid,but hoyofair is a community based event that " collects" a variety of fan animations. They are all amazing and professionally made, sure, but its always worth taking them for fan animations and never as confirmations of anything. The canon appearance of the moon sisters is still unknown. This has the same lore weight as Navia and Xiangling opening a bakery in a cyberpunk Fontaine
Ok the faded out Resplendent Female Corrin splashart and Veronica splashart being used to represent moon sisters is kinda amusing to me.
..... I used to be a HEAVY FeH add*ct... I +10'd every single copy of Marth it was bad
@@Minsleif Respect, I'm insane and still play it, so I ain't judging, besides its good art.
Omg! I thought I was the only one who noticed! Don't forget Seidr is there too! 😊
@@Minsleifto be honest- that’s fair. Fire emblem has some good games lil
Interestingly enough, at night you can clearly see the stars converging to a dome. Never noticed it until running around through the Sumeru desert at night. Welkin Moon lasts 30 days similar to the Enkanomiya achievement. Not to mention that Welkin is offering us guidance in form of primogems.
The second who came was not Nibelung. According to Neuvillette, the first throne and "one who came after" joined forces in the great war of vengeance involving Nibelung.
Does that paragraph really imply that though? It only mentions the creation of the gnoses with 'the one who came after' not necessarily that they were present during the War of Vengeance nor that they fought together against Nibelung. If anything, it seems like the usurper fought in that war, got wounded, and afterwards got help in restoring peace. "Severely wounded in the great war of vengeance, the usurper had their functions ruined, and could no longer use their absolute authority to suppress the original order of this world. To continue to subdue and control the resentments and loathing of the world, the usurper and one who came after created the Gnoses together."
@@awesomemilkshake6612 The 1st descender and 2nd descender creating the gnoses "together" implies at least an alliance, it would make no sense for them to be Nibelung. Also, Neuvillette refers to the 2nd descender as "one who came after" in reference to the "usurper" (1st descender), meaning they are both usurpers. If "the one who came after" were Nibelung, Neuvillette would've referred to him as such as would have used a more adequate title such as "Dragon King".
Neuvillette stated that first and second descender made the gnosis together ..so they tagged team... Third descender have more chances of being nibelung
@@soujiokita6062 I think so too.
It’s “one who came after”, not ‘THE one who came after “. To me it implies that after the war between the first and second, which the first won, the first and the third created the gnosis together (the third sacrificing himself to do so) in order to subdue whatever changes were brought about due to the war and the PO being weakened.
could arle be a reborn version of sonnet/the abyssal moon? her title in the card is dire balemoon, she has a lot of crimson moon references and her ult looks like an eclipse (also looks like the moon in spiral abyss but not sure if this is a stretch) edit 26/04/24 : GO LOOK AT ARLE'S OUTFIT DESCRIPTION OH MY GOD the outfit itself is called moonglare but the second sentence says "The ancient balemoon rises once more from dreams" HELLO????
No… 😂 most likely candidate for Sonnet is Columbina… her hymm’ing/singing is the most obvious give away.. not to me too mention her thematical drip is arli x3 😂 arli only got the 4wing drip Columbina got the 6 wing.. plus childe immediately noticed something terrifying about her aura.. remember I’m that Italian play.. Arlecchino and Columbian are secretly lovers..so if we stick to that theme… Columbia is the Probability sonnet and the crimson moon herself.. and thematically again it makes sense why arki would be associated with the balemoon.. aka crimson dynasty where sonnet followers… 🤔 and thus built their legacy and bloodline aren’t Sonnet.. NOTE maybe sonnet/Columbia actually is indeed sleeping in the same bed as arli.. aka helped arli learn to suppress and control her power?🤔 also “note” no pun intended . Sonnet would be the “ mother” of the three phases “maiden.. mother.. crone” the mother nurtures life.. aka arli is basically a mother like sonnet.. so there’s a potentially link there and fits with the Italian lost of Columbia and arlecchino being “lovers” again not their themes.. both WINGED.. phanes was described as having a crown and winged… celestia is clearly associated with the crown… aria/Piamon has a crown as she’s suppose to be the current phase ruler.. Canon is the current “ruler” but her turn is suppose to be over thus NO CROWN… note we the twins lost our wings when we lost our powers yes? probably why pismon and canon have no wings either cause they are shells of themselves.. probably why sonnet also has no wings but six wing symbolism.. thus why arli has 4wings symbolism as she’s lowkey in bed with sonnet/Columbia.. arli probably knows Columbia is the actual moon sister.. and the crimson moon sister the dynasty followed.. BUT I could be wrong cause Columbina could also be canon and thus crone aka god of fate aka angel Id death this the words the ppl said when passing the the trial “ are u dead?” 😂💀 that would make unknown god Sonnet instead of canon… NOTE when unknown god appeared 3 diamond portals opened.. she came out the MIDDLE which was also the biggest and it was GOLD while the other two where black.. Piamon has a black star on her too.. I’m convinced Piamon IS aria the maiden.. unknown god is Canon or Sonnet.. Columbia is Sonnet or Canon.. and ishtor as a concept is the SPACETIME the 3sister travel/move/rotate thru.. past present future aka maiden mother crone 🤔 all 4 are the heavenly principles and Celestia AND shades of phanes who they “usurped?”🤔 conclusion.. arlecchinos story as cool as it is.. is way to shallow to be a moonsister… 💀
The amount of time it must take you to make these videos… this is SUCH a good theory!! Everything adds up and and makes sense, new sub!!
thank u so much! ; - ;
I cant get tired of these lore videos. So much to learn. Its awesome the amount of effort put into the lore. Adapting a huge amount of folklore and folktales from all over the world is no easy task. And then we have people like you translating it to us. Thanks for all the effort.
Another fantastic video Min!!! Thank you :)
bUT, it is also called BLESSING OF THE WELKIN MOON
love your vids min! keep it up ❤
Great theory with a lot of lore to support it. One of my favorites that you've done.
This is crazy omg! I love this u did a great job ! Also i want to point out to you another that might be a hint idk you tell me. So horse being associated with time huh ? It remind me of one of the Sumeru Darshan, their logo is a Horse with a time piece/Hourglass if I remember things correctly. And we know some of these symbol represent real genshin creatures as another darshan symbol is a peacock and match the description of Simurgh both the real life myth and the ingame Simurgh that the 2 out of 3 goddess of life created
AHHHHHH I never knew that 😭😭😭 what an awesome find!!!!!! And Kaeya’s constellation being a peacock too, I wouldn’t be surprised if he has correlations with Simurgh since she was mentioned in the Khvarena quest!! 😍😍
@@Minsleif Exactly ! Your video reminded me of that🎉
I really love your theories, They always help me understand the lore a little better even if they are just theories💗✨
10:11 what the hell, this gave me chills, i just remembered DMC3 boss that was a Horse drawn carriage who controls time
Crazy overlap 😮💨
OMG, this video is such a big step forward in the lore imo, also amazing references
Wow, Minsleif, what an incredible video! Your exploration of the Three Moon Sisters in Genshin Impact's Moonlit Bamboo Forest is both insightful and captivating. I've been eagerly anticipating more lore content surrounding these mysterious characters, and your analysis did not disappoint. Your attention to detail and thorough research shine through in every aspect of the video. From the historical context to the intricacies of the Sisters' relationships, you provide a comprehensive understanding that enriches the Genshin Impact experience for fans like myself.
More lore and theories on moon sisters from Minsleif?! Lesgooo
Nice fire emblem heroes silhouettes x3 very good taste! Thanks for catching me up on the latest lore!!❤
I think paimon is none other than istaroth/kairos...one of the four shining shades... The rest two hesperous and phosphorous are the other moons... The proof to this is that paimon gave us the power to change the day and night time duration of tevyat.. More over we found paimon all alone in the sea.. May be she shrinked to this form just like nahida did and lost her memories... And as minsleif said she killed her other two sister... So according to this the only two remaining shades are paimon/istaroth/kairos and the asmoday(sustainer)
I am not sure about Nibelung being the second who came. Becuse one of Neuvilette's character stories imply that The Usurper and the one who came after made gnoses together. Well Nibelung may also tried to harvest the power of other dragon soveirngs and indirectly helped making the gnoses but for me that seems unlikely.
That is true! That’s one inconsistency I found as well cause Skirk implies the First and Second Descenders worked together to make the gnoses out of the Third Descender’s body, so it’s like hmmmm
I really love the fact that you used silhouettes of fire emblem heroes ❤
YAY NEW VID !
If Aria is Istaroath then it maked sense why Aria's sonnet was played in Venti's character demo
Fun things to consider. Thanks for this.
This was such a good theory !!
amazing vod
bro twist after twist after twist this is such good food for lore players ive been fed good
random but i need you to voice a character in genshin omg, someone like nicole would fit you so well
Another thing to consider is that maybe the "Horse Adeptus" wasn't actually an adeptus! Over the years, characters traveling acoss Teyvat have repeatedly mistook various entities for their home varient, such as mistaking Inazuma's Youkai as a Liyue Adepti! Even Kirara mistook Diona to be another Youkai living in Mondstadt! If the writer of the Moonlight Bamboo Forest were to describe an entity they've never seen before, that bears similarities to something more recognizable, they would likely call it such! Just think about the Leviathan in the Bible book of Job, or the Dragons of Eastern Asia! Neither are the regional names of these creatures of mythology, but both "Leviathan" and "Dragon" came from a European translation since those creatures were of familiar description to the people it was being translated for! If a person from Liyue were to see Yae Sakura walking through the hills of Liyue, they'd mistake her for a Fox Adeptus instead of a Kitsune (a.k.a. a Fox Youkai)! So why not this "Horse Adeptus"?
Well a lot more information can be extracted from lores in Chinese language, the three moon sisters were refered as "空月” “渊月” and “赤月”, 空月 is also the same name as the "welkin moon" in Chinese, and “渊月” is the same name as buff in the spiral abyss, so we assume these two are the ones who were dead from the catastrophy in ancient time, and the other one "赤月” (red moon, blood moon, crimson moon) is usually assumed as the god who prevented you from leaving when you first enter this game. I also think it is so hard for mihoyo to take care of all the lores in the 4 different languages available, but since they are china based, I suggest the naming in Chinese language might be very crucial to understand the lores.
Also one of venti's talents is called "Skyward Sonnet"!! Idk if he has something to do with them but it's very interesting nonetheless
Yeah i was thinking that, Sonnet is basically a poem, and Venti is an aspect of Istaroth, so that likely means Istaroth is Sonnet.
I needed this rn
Minsleif and her soothing voice returns 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
This actually makes sense, the moon in abyss and the one we see are both different. They both don't move much, nor have eclipses, meaning mostly their position is stationary.
7:33 YOO i've actually written a theory about this all the way back in 4.2! I think that nibelung isn't the 2nd who came, but the third descender, and that PO and SWC fought together against him. I made a post on r/genshin_lore about it, here's what i wrote: " First off, "before the sun and moon" only states that, after the SWC arrived, war was rekindled, but it was never explicitely stated between who. Neuvillette character story even implies that they worked together at some point (unless "the one who came after" is not SWC but third descender). So, who was the war actually against? It was against the dragons again. Neuvillette's character story calls it "the great war of vengeance". What would vengeance have to do with PO and SWC fighting? Unless they've met before which would be a whole other can of worms, their fight wouldn't be described using the term vengeance. Now, someone who would seek vengeance against the throes, are the dragons. But wait, if PO defeated the dragons by itself, why would PO and SWC fighting the dragons together be any sort of challange? Because Nibelung only used the power of the abyss in the second fight. Nibelung came back at some point (since the dragons seem to naturally reincarnate), and harnessed abyssal powers to fight. I think this would make more sense than Nibelung managing to summon forbidden knowledge during the fight. But if this were correct, then who is the third descender? How would PO and SWC even defeat a descender when they were so weakened after the fight against the abyss-buffed dragon king? The end of the 4.2 narzissenkreuz ordo world quest adds a big hint to who it might be. I think the third descender is actually just Nibelung. So, we know Narzissenkreuz/Rene wanted to become a descender. It was his end goal and it might have actually been possible. Which just means that even those originally from teyvat can become descenders. So, Nibelung actually went into the abyss to gather forbidden knowledge. When he came back, he was classified as a Descender. PO and SWC just barely defeated him for the second fight and used his corpse to make the gnoses."
9:15 istaroth being aria actually makes enough sense. Because istaroth is know for not letting people in what you could call “dangerous situations” just like when she helped the people in enkanomya, so her helping the boy in the book series has sense. But is she’s known to help those in need, why did she kill the other 2 moon sisters? What bought her to do such an act against them? Plus we don’t even know WHERE istaroth is, it’s almost like so poofed out of teyvat! Hopefully she’s alive tho because she has to be my favorite unreleased character in genshin. Also I hope she’s not paimon tbh, would kinda ruin her character for me…
actually not makes sense bc istaroth and the other shades are morning stars the lovers of the moon sisters that whose the cause of the killing each other the kairos is morning star and also phosphoros and hesperus represents the morning star and evening star the light bringer and the dawnbringer the primordial one is lucifer(demiurgos the false god of gnostism) and 4 shades are also morning stars
This is amazing lore!!!!
I can't remember if it was mentioned in this video, so if it was please ignore, but the Vahumana symbol is also a yellow horse circling an hourglass. Its just interesting that the horse symbolism has been linked to the passing of time/historical events more than once in various mythos.
early! let's go for more lore~
I think that maybe the unknown god could be aria considering that when the outsiders (us) came, she immediately stopped us because she knew crap was gonna go wrong if we fell in live w a seelie. Also, paimon might be the one that was “killed” but not tured into the moon (i forgot which one i think it was canon?). But what if she was just fatally wounded, fell in the sea, and forgotten? Even forgotten by her own self? Just a thought :)
You are just amazing as usual , please we need more theories I really missed this kind of video from you 🥹💜💜
AYYOOOO FINALLY
5:27 ayo it's our Lore Archon Boy Wei, the one who makes cracked theories
You exploded my mind with this theory
I love the fire emblem's glowing shape/shadow to describe the 3 sisters 😂 seior, veronica and corrin (artworks from fire emblem heroes)
the feh silhouettes for lvero, respcorrin, and seithr im cryiiinggg
Yay! Another video from Min! ❤❤❤❤
“Neuvillette’s great great grandpappy” 💀 but being serious I loved this video
Its so cook that you know Chinese and can operate your knowledge to extract more information. I hope someday I will learn chinese, I feel that asian languages carry more meanings in every word. Absolutely masterpiece. Thank you for your work!
Ok unrelated but, 17 years of piano experience?? Girl can we hear you play🥺💖
I recommend to check stories of Honkai Impact 3rd called "Beyond the stars". Phosphorus and Hesperus are actual places at there. Lore was amazing for me.
Okay, lemme cook. What is Paimon is Aria, since she's the only one left behind and since she can CONTROL TIME (The clock in Paimon's menu that can move time forward) Also Paimon is a demon from the Ars Goetia who has the knowledge of past and future events! EDIT: ALSO if you look up the sigyl of Paimon in the Ars Goetia it's 4 PEOPLE ON A CARRIAGE
i think nibelung is the 3rd descender, not the second who came. remember those words for the descenders? they can create, sustain, destroy and protect the world? According to Neuvillette's vision story the Primordial one and the second who came somehow came together to create the gnoses, and what better reason to unite two previous enemies than a vengeful dragon that came to take back his world with forbidden knowledge? the first descender created, the second sustained (idk if its the unknown god but given her title as the sustainer of HP, it checks, the third wanted to destroy, and now we as the fourth are going to protect the world. Unrelated but I lowkey have a feeling that the abyss sibling being summoned to Khaenri'ah was an attempt to create an artificial descender, don't know if it's the reason for the cataclysm
I think Hesperus is the Welkin moon sister since she gives the primogems, and we can also gather primogems through chests, and to unlock the achievement in Enka, we also need to open chests. Boons are also known as blessings or gifts afterall. But the fact that she might or might not be the moon in the sky since Welkins means "Sky vault", counters this theory itself. Idk just a speculation. Another Interesting and fun lore video tho!!!
Minsleif, I have a theory, Do you think that Dainsleif and Tsaritsa could be canon in Genshin? Cuz you know they have so many similarities with the light prince and the pale princess. And especially you can find this similarities when you read the book ‘The Pale Princess and The Six Pygmies’. It’s going to be so cool if it indeed is them 🥰
I don't think so i don't believe the tsaritsa being pale princess thing the book literally tells us the story of khaenri'ah, the pure blooded khaenri'ahns have blue eyes and the books says there's monsters on the edges of the kingdom and we knew that from perinheri book the khaenri'ah kingdom was located among the abyss and the teyvat (the flame of the 2 world)
i thinl Light Prince is the third Descender
Honestly I like the idea that Piamon is the descendent of one of the moon sisters or a fragment of one of them considering with Nahida we’ve seen them use that kind of idea
Kairos is the god of fleeting, decisive moments. Not sure if that is helpful. Moon goddesses often come in threes, so I've heard of the Greek moon goddesses being represented by Artemis (crescent hunting bow moon), Selene (full moon), and Hecate (goddess of magic, dark side of the moon)
This is very interesting, the concept of moon sisters doesn’t even went into my mind or ever, i just thought they were completely separate people
6:19 i saw a theory that says that paimon is isaroth , i really like this theory tbh
Very late but kudos to Minsleif's team for using outlines of FEH characters like Veronica to represent the moon sisters kek
"yo i brought back some forbidden knowledge"
shout out to Lan for THEIR showing
The 4 shades and 3 moon sisters make up 7. And teyvat seems to function in numbers of 7. So them being separate entities makes sense to me
also the 4 shades are represents the morning stars the lovers of the moon sisters they can't be the same persons
@@Enochnes oh it's even more pathetic when you idiot's profile doesn't even work. Did your pathetic self forget that you have to keep the fake profile for long enough for me to see it? Now go and take your broke bitchless ass, touch some grass AND STOP SCAMMING PEOPLE
if columbina ends up being the 4th shade the lore is gonna go crazyyyy
Veronica, Corrin and Seior representing the sisters is so fun!
Kind of a random choice though lol.
5:53 A PROGENITOR GOD HAIL- wait wrong channel
ok but like, the ABYSAL MOON?!?!?! OH COME ON!
I've tried to connect the Golden Eyed Woman to a seelie or even Rhinedottir, but honestly there's nothing to imply she's a Moon Sister and its pretty clear that she is a horse adepti. That said, in Journey to the West, the chinese saga that has many beings that are similar to Liyue Adepti, has a White Horse character. But in that story, the White Horse is actually a transformed Dragon. Which would be very interesting if applied to Genshin.
Cecile corbel. related to genshin?! OH MY GOD YES
Aria has white hair ... Paimon has white hair ... coincidence??? I think not.
Ok, so Canon: Basically being a composition that has a melody that is followed by the same melody but in a different key. Sonnet: A sonnet means little song, but it can also mean, a poem with 14 lines. Aria: Is a solitary voice, a solo. What i think is Aria is the moon currently in the sky, the dead sister who hangs overhead all alone. Sonnet is Istaroth, as she's the goddess of time and who Venti, a god who is known for his poems and songs, is apart of. Canon is the goddess of flowers who is implied to be a former seelie and was exiled to earth, leading to her leaving a trail of flowers that resembled the moon in her wake wherever she stepped and who spawned the Jinn who also followed her. Basically, she's constantly followed by echoes of her self.
5:39 Phosphoros’s Guidance suggests this figure had more to do with Seelies than the other two, Hesperus’s Boons suggests possibly being a wealth god of some kind, and Kairos’s Constancy is fittingly linked to Time Trials, since we know Kairos is Istaroth, the god of time. I lay all this out to draw connections to the Archons; Venti is the Anemo god and the god of freedom as a concept, Zhongli is the Geo god and the god of contracts, etc etc. Phosphoros, Hesperus, and Kairos could’ve been moon gods and gods of things more specific to them as individuals as well.
Thank you for making these videos so i don't have to look for and read the books❤️
i love aether being moon sister
The word blessing is in the welkin moon too tho
Cross finger Aria is tied to Liyue cuz of the bamboo forest thing lol. But it seems stranger that Aria/Istaroth is connected to both Inazuma and Liyue. Inazuma because of Ei and Makota and the whole idea of “Eternity”, basically stopping “Time” and Liyue….. the sighting/liyue tale in the bamboo forest and yes. A possible “sun god” is in Liyue too and he’s the eldest god so far *cough in golden old man with secrets he doesnt want to share and so he acts innocent and doesnt tell us anything purposefully*
I'm here to stan Minsleif using Navia as her expy. Thank You.

If there is indeed relation between the moon sisters and horse figures, it really makes me wonder then about something. The moon sisters have names related to music, and clearly Istaroth is more intimate to humans than the other two are because of Enkanomyia, so what is the deal with the new world boss coming in next patch? Remus wanted to make a "perfect symphony capable of putting all minds together" or something among those lines, and now we have a half horse and half human boss that fights using music. There's no way it's just a simple coincidence right?
It's been so long since I actually correlated Primordial One and the Four Shining Shades with the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Makes me wonder if the five figures are also parallel to the latter one. • Flower of Life = Pestilence • Plume of Death = Death • Sands of Eon = Famine • Goblet of Eonothem = Conquest/War • Circlet of Logos = Apocalypse
That's what makes me stay in Genshin. The lore is just so big and interesting.
While I don't agree with a lot of this video, making crazy theories is half the fun of it all. And I always have associated the Moonlit Bamboo story to the Mondstat story Drunkard's Tale, which also has a mysterious woman playing music for seelies and reminiscing about the past, to a wolf (wolves being among the few that remember the Moon Sisters)
I love lore Archon Wei hehe
Did anyone notice that the priomodial dude has Aether’s Hairdo but with a hood? Also freaking Lil Mis Istoroth looking like Lumine for some reason?
those are fanart
Thoose are fanarts ,we don't have any primordial one(phanes) official art we just have description and domain fresques.
After a seelie fell inlove with a Descender blessed by the Moon sisters, Celestia cursed the seelie race. The Moon sisters suddenly turned against each other then Celestia casted the seelies out of heavens and transformed them into mindless sprites we see today. Teyvat's moon, Welkin moon, and the Abyssal moon, may or may not be the remains of the sisters.
