Won’t say the f slur

Can’t say the f slur Can say the f slur

Would say the f slur

Can’t say but would say it: decarabian

He’s not homophobic he just recognizes that this word is super insulting and he wants to mentally and physically hurt the revolutionaries so he’s going to be saying “silences f*ggots your king is talking”

Can’t say it, won’t say it: deshret

He’s smart enough to not be homophobic, his two girl friends are gay. The only time I can ever see him saying it is when Remus keeps him up at night with defying gravity so he mutters “this f#g” under his breath

Can say it and would say it: Remus

He’s out gay man with a dragon husband and four adopted human children. He can say it, it’s his birthright at this point. So If it rhymes it’s going in the poem

Can say it won’t say it: Och kan

My spirit is still stuck at the day of flame's return…

Pic 2 “That treacherous Xbalanque…👁”

(btw this design of Ronova had been thought before the official version was released yet I still think it may be interesting to draw her like Mictlantecuhtli so I did)

no way we got an och-kan glazer

... yes way. we got an och-kan glazer. and more ochkanatlan lore.......

is this what och-kan was telling his followers. omg. your god is dead. anyway, it seems this lady disagrees with och-kan being a tyrant and calls those who believe so "traitors"?

and also they call xbalanque "the true god". yay.

(also, um, the blazing sun should be xbalanque, even more implied by the last line. did he really tell people to do what she said in the first line here?? or is it och-kan telling his words through the grapevine, but either way...)

lady ixquieh did not die for this. in the ineffa quest and ring of yaxche, it's clear she was against och-kan.

but, this also lines up with what manqu wrote in the third page of his memo. they were telling that she "gave her all" for the alliance despite the fact that she literally died to oppose it.

lastly - this isn't the first time the titles amoxcihuatl uses for och-kan have been used

My disorganized current thoughts on the new main quest

OKAY. Istaroth!? What are you doing????? How many times has it been now? First with the ancient Sakura, the before sun and moon parable, and now this? Also samsaras but I don't know if thats actually Istaroth's doing.

Its so interesting. Also i wish we could have found out a way to not start the loop.

Istaroth has done so many shenanigans now! Also lowkey this kind of mildly meddles with the boxed time theory of Teyvat. But also not.

Also Surtalogi and Dain were classmates!? And and! It was probably the sibling's power the five sinners stole. It was pretty much spelled out for us by Haden but like also we shouldn't take things at immediate face value too? I mean its Genshin.

Also Vedrfolnir is the reason Dain doesn't rot!? (Lowkey forgot they were siblings) He gave him a ring!?? I wonder if Pierro is the same. This also has a lot of fun hints with The Ring Cycle which Khaenri'ah takes a lot of inspiration from.

Dain really out here knowing all the sinners personally. Like it was assumed since his hatred was so strong but its funny. His classmate, his older brother, I don't quite remember if he has close ties with the other 3 but like this is funny right? And then being a personal companion to our sibling the prince/princess. Dain out here as a main character man.

Also maybe the fact that our sibling forgetting their memories is part of the reason why they're not a descender because they consider themselves part of the world. One trait I find really interesting is that our Traveler genuinely doesn't care that much. The moment the sibling says "let's go", the traveler wouldn't even hesitate they'd be out of there. Traveler just wants to leave, the only reason why they're still here is because of their sibling. But its our Twin's pride and connection to the world that makes us stay. Like we're a trapped star.

Also technically there's three hibernation keys at one time sorta. Imagine we use the third for Paimon.

On another note

Also 3 of the four Samsaras being named after locations in the game Hyperborea, Remuria, Natlanese ect. is interesting. And Khraun-Arya sounds awfully close to Khaenri'ah. Ya know what's interesting about all 4 of these locations. They had some sort of major revitalizion/rebrand(?). For example, Hyperborea is the original location of the Frostmoon Scions who relocated to Nod Krai. Remuria had the Grand Symphony and turning people into machines. Natlan relocated from Ochkanatlan to current Natlan. Now Khaenri'ah is being remade whereever our twin places the Atlas. Maybe this is why we're in the fourth Samsara because Khaenri'ah hasn't been remade yet.

Or it could be time travel

U guys get to see a WIP draft of my ochkan design when he ruled cinder city IDK
