Bluepoch why

Liyue: the one I have the least to say about since I think "the cruelest archon of them all" says everything (also the idea of adepti being debt collectors is kinda funny in my head)

Inazuma: I don't think I've ever seen anything more terrifying than that desing, not even in my nightmares 🥲🥲 what is that, why is that, why is it stiched together 😭😭🙏 I love how much it scared me. Also, the whole pulls the corpses/half-dead? Bodies through the cities by tugging on the threads of their veins to stimulate a populance? Fhjdjdkwmd terrifying, how did you come up with that op 😭😭

Sumeru: first things first, rukkhadevata's hair?? Or is that straight up her head speared on the tree?? The symbolism of her design is sooo hfhdhkwl like she still has alta on her hands (her hands being red) which symbolises devinity and purity but the eyes... The eyes would tell you otherwise. She has Shiva's eye of destruction, a crown of skulls surounded by rotten leaves... I don't know how much of the religious symbolism in the design was intentional but it's so gooddd. Also the offering people forbidden knowledge in exchange of her release? Hchhdqo

Fontaine: neuvi's eye... It's so pretty also how do have you managed to make an oceanid look that scary 😭😭 furina's design caught me off guard, I thought she was straight up a meca doll at first but after reading I realised that no, it is not that simple. Of course not that would be too tame, it's meca joints and parts fused with her flesh, thus the blood dripping from the joints and stuff 😃😃 also the whole "fontaine lives for the spectical of the court" times 2799 horror edition 😃😄😃 focalor being the first archon corrupted?? Furina being forced to watch the "trials"? the way the mentions of liberalism, fraternity etc gave me french revolution flashbacks since that was kinda what introduced those ideas to Europe and the rest of the world in the first place

Natlan: the people being so consumed by war and bloodshed that not only do they not know what the war was for, when or why it began or who it's against, they don't even know the name of their land (or atleast that's what I thought the blacked out name meant) probably one of the, of not the most horrifying situation of the lands people, maybe second to Inazuma. Also the whole idea of "mavuika's fingers" made my skin crawl

And I don't wanna say anything abt nod krai... I don't want any of the negative energy those designs are very much giving 🥲🥲
