living dead thing !!

not to keep posting genshin thoughts but i always only see like half baked thoughts about how venti is a remarkably different archon from everyone else. he cares very deeply about each and every one of his people on an individual level, consistently going out of his way to keep these people safe and bring them home, forming relationships and alliances with all sorts of powerful groups to ensure he's able to keep protecting these ppl. all in exchange for literally nothing. he doesn't want to be worshipped, the church has literally nothing to do with him. and originally ppl thought it was bc of a few things like venti being the only one really living along his ppl or even being dependent on his ppl due to being "weak" but now we've seen all the seven and like. mavuika is maybe the closest in terms of personality to venti and even then she is hardly a god mavuika was human first while venti wasn't. but then we see zhongli also lived among his people and has a much more hands off approach, he's basically an absent father. nahida is keen on alliances and building her own strength, but she still doesn't have the same relationship with her own people and often sees them all as a whole. focalors has the same self sacrificing traits as venti, she wants to save her people, yet she's also deeply selfish because of this want and was perfectly fine putting furina in the line of fire, meaning the hydro archon could literally never have a casual relationship w her people. then there's the tsaritsa, and while we haven't seen much of her yet, it's clear that she is willing to sacrifice her people and maintains distance from them purposely, she is a queen, a god, untouchable by literally everyone. she seems nothing like venti but my theory is that she... used to be. i think the tsaritsa and venti used to treat godhood the same way before the tsaritsa lost literally everything and then became withdrawn.
