I’ve never been here before but noticed nobody pointed that out

Some things I’m not really sure how they’ll fit into the larger picture like all of the new snezhnaya cast but I believe most of this is almost guaranteed to happen

1 - 2 is basically just the teaser and I doubt those plot point won’t continue similar to other teasers. I’m sure there will be more nuance to it, also I’m assuming always that the respective banner characters have their story arcs within the chapter

3 - 4 continues the discourse this time more information floods out, I believe Childe will hear the true nature of project stuzha and as a plot twist to transition us to the second phase of this aq

Im sure a new model will be unveiled this patch I think It’ll be pierros, as for pantalone banner I believe it could fall under this patch as all active harbingers have their banners on the month number they are in ranking, 4th harbinger April, 7th in july 9th in September? Also dendro cryo reactions would drop around then and he looks pretty dendro, he could always get a linchpin that fixes his lung problems

5 - 6 might sound like a stretch to say that we will be going or another nation in the middle of the snezhnaya aq but I have plenty of reasons. The main one is capitanos involvement, he most certainly will show up in the quest as the Tsaritsa kept his rank and mistilteinn the Norse mythology weapon heavily associated with thrain, capitanos old name is a key word in the project. The top harbinger and the key word have to show up but for him to show up a bunch of other things need to happen. Someone has to take his place as master of the ley lines

This brings me to simulanka, the mare jivari and how this all connects to the pyro gnosis. In simulanka a series of events very similar to natlan happened before natlan, but it didn’t end when Capitano sat down it continued and the “Capitano” fought something similar to the bakunawa monster in a place similar to the mare jivari and I saw a theory that when he gets defeated they could use his special flesh as a placeholder for capitanos immortal body. The pyro gnosis is also missing somewhere and it only makes sense that it’ll be connected to Capitano and the mare jivari seems like the perfect untraceable spot for it to be.

The archon meeting is self explanatory, I believe it will be set up by either nahida or neuvilette, probably nahida who seems the most interested in having this finally happen. I don’t think neuvilette will actually judge any body or lock anyone in prison but he will likely find the Tsaritsa guilty of ruining her nation. I could see fights happening, I think Childe but locked in vs neuvilette would be a nice full circle moment

7 - 8 their is a chance the quest is 10 chapters but I doubt it, I don’t think the Tsaritsa will succeed in reviving her loved ones, mainly cause her child has an npc model and I could see her husband not showing up until way later, like 9.0 or something.

Ronova will die, people are acting like just cause she is a hot woman she is free of death but signora is right there. If your the enemy of an archon you die, zhongli is there too and all the harbingers will have their own unique roles in and out of the fight. It only makes sense this chaotic group ends in a bang.

I saw a post correcting miss information about Ronova and it was largely accurate till I saw one part, she did not genocide khaenri’ah. I tried to argue but the trend I noticed happening is countless fans would jump in call me a fatui fan boy and start to list the crimes of the fatui like I don’t know them as if that’s a gotcha moment when NOT ONCE did i justify the sinners actions or the fatui’a (literally no correlation with the convo) and especially Capitano, someone deadass said what Capitano did in natlan was worse than the curse of immortality 😭

Now my points against “Ronova didn’t genocide khaenri’ah” were such. First and foremost even if she didn’t she certainly did to many other nations by just being part of the heavens she is directly responsible for EVERY nail that has touched the earth. No matter the justifications you can come up with nailing a nation guarantees innocents die and it’s lazy for a group with so much power just individually murder each one.

Now khaenri’ah, what happened there is arguably WORSE and it’s still a genocide, genocide doesn’t always entail mass murder it could just be bombing infrastructure, cutting off water supplies, cutting of mortality definitely counts as the intentions were mass punishment and the fall of khaenri’ah. It definitely counts as genocide and even if it doesn’t you can call a murder a bully even if they never build and defending the murderer saying “erm she’s actually not a bully” is stupid and irrational. PLUS IT IS A GENOCIDE don’t get it twisted it definitely is one.

After I “convinced him” he stubbornly refused to admit she’s evil and started giving justifications…. 😭 the op of the comment kept on brushing it off because “the sinners acted like the cure is no big deal” he kept spamming that one point and god it pissed me off. THE SINNERS HAVE BEYOND GOD LIKE POWERS. Dain and Capitano are both incredibly powerful yet even to them it is unbearably painful. Imagine the children. He would jump through so many holes just to defend this action and it was crazy. Not even good points either like maybe the primordial one manipulated her?

The most frustrating part was all the times he would bring up the fatui this and that and that and tell me how terrible it is (I KNOW THIS AND IM NOT DEFENDING IT) it’s clear his mindset is if you like a character you MUST condone all their actions, tf no I’m not you don’t lump me in with you.

I feel like putting Capitano as my pfp has put a target on my back, it feels worse then that time I put my face ( im black ) as my pfp on instagram reels 😭, If I had a diluc pfp then we would have had a civil conversation not my genocide > yours 😭😭😭

Not that it’s a bad thing, I think the Tsaritsa and most of the designs are overall not a flops, but they are not perfect, some characters rock that look like vodianitsa looks great but some are not as perfect as they could have been, like well… the Tsaritsa… she would just look infinitely better if you just filled in the gaps.

I skipped her, I didn’t know Fontaine was the peak of genshin female design, I am eagerly awaiting the next arlecchino. Playable Ronova? So long as they don’t sand her down an make her less evil Ronova is a tyrannical evil god and should stay one.

This guy has a very similar neck pattern to albedo who was created by gold rhinedottir, he is connected to them in some way, it also looked like he was talking to someone about how much times changed over the eons. Could be our captain he’s lived a long time?

I made some assumptions on some of them based on their personality like everybody in natlan at least likes him cause he saved them twice,

Shehe is suppose to be the Tsaritsa btw, she cares enough to let him do whatever so top tier

Dottore hates everyone

Ronova is indifferent towards humanity,

I also put lumine as the abyss twin, they likely have a very positive opinion on him and knew him well most likley, they are fighting for victims like him.

This ideas probably been done before but it’s just my take✌️

Tsaritsa will be peak, she’ll have a dress similar to Emily or Nicole, long and modest and she’ll look ethereal, she will be kind and sweet…. But it’s all a front, a mask she wear.

She will essentially be a reverse Raiden, instead of peeling back her layers to reveal a kind god we’ll reveal a cold and broken god. Her lover long gone, the tsar whom she served under brutally murdered before her, she can never go back to being the loving person she once was but she can heal.

She isn’t a pure evil monster like dottore nor a saint like flopbina rather in between. Her relationship with flopvler is strictly professional. Her character demo is her recruiting all the fatui and she is a universal support who reverse powercreeps like furina while still working with Stellar and having dps capabilities as well. Also she’s an og character not a bronya or anything else.
