The Boar Princess & the Consumption of Friends! | Genshin Impact Lore
With Imaginarium Theater right around the corner, Genshin Impact will finally get a new permanent combat-oriented game mode for the first time in 4 years at this point.
What's even better about Imaginarium Theater is that it is entirely themed around the Hexenzirkel... Specifically Andersdotter's book "The Boar Princess".
So, what better time is it than now to talk about The Boar Princess and all the moral lessons it teaches us regarding the consumption of friends!
Also, Norse Mythology, Bronya, and the Legend of Shattered Halberd too...
Thanks for watching!

The Great Sin of Khaenri'ah's Six Pygmies | Genshin Impact Theory

The Archon Quest: Bedtime Story has finally given us an almost complete picture of what historical event is described in The Pale Princess and the Six Pygmies.

I found the newest Archon Quest in patch 4.7, Bedtime Story, to be quite an interesting one on many levels. The quest primarily revolves around Caribert and the Abyss Sibling and it brings a hefty amount of World-Building with it. The quest also sets up a new group of antagonists known as The Five Sinners of Khaenri'ah who we will likely be facing off against later down the story, with a specia...

    Paimon will side with the Heavenly Principles, who will promise her that she will forever be married to the Aether and will continue adventuring together and hanging out with their friends, living a lie. Lumine believes she has found their home, the sea of flowers, and she will use the Abyss' power to terraform her new home and absorb anything that stands in the way of the siblings new world. The harbinger fools think that they will survive the destruction that Aether will wrought. If they succeed there will be nothing left, not even land for mint to grow, so I am not sure what makes then think THEY will survive. Paimon, Lumine, Archons, Dragons... all will perish. Is this what it all amounts to? Is this what Zhongli refers to when he says that the Aether is the best witness? Because he will be the only one left? The only one to remember?

    I just finished Aranyaka: Mysterious Clipboards where Traveler finally opened the last path to hidden treasure(s) No. 9 and was greeted by Aranara. The striking conversation between them: ???: " Eek! It's Golden Nara! There is the taste of the wind, the taste of earth, and the taste of Aranara!" ???: "Golden Nara has figure out the Ararakalari of Arayama?" ???: "How dreadful! Obstructions are useless, anyone can break in, and the "happy nest" of Araminali will be "broken!"." Paimon: "Um... Paimon guessed so! (Traveler) and Paimon are on Aranara's Side. We want to be Aranara's good friends." Traveler: "Paimon is gluttonous, but not bad in nature." Paimon: "Hey! That's technically not wrong, though..." Later they recovered the seed they found in the Chasm, watered it into Aranara. The said Aranara then went into journey to "gift" treasures into the "empty chests" so Traveler can open it as rewards...?

    Some random thoughts on the Boar Princess: 1) No, the Wise Fox and the Old Turtle aren't the Boar Princess' true friends. They very clearly attempted to drive her to suicide, by suggesting that the Boar Princess herself should sacrifice herself to Andrius. But the Boar Princess tricked them and came out as the winner. 2) Andersdotter being a daughter of Andrius? It would make sense, if she was like Razor. 3) I think the wolf pup being Andrius the Wolfinator gives us a key to unraveling the rest of the mystery. This tale is a record of the Archon War in Mondstadt, written in an Irminsul-proof way. Boar Princess is Venti, Turtle is Decarabian, and the fox must be an ancestor of Yae Miko and Sucrose. After Decarabian was slain in a rebellion, Andrius mysteriously warmed up and gave up on fighting for the throne of Anemo Archon. The tale suggests this is because he consumed some of Decarabian's essence, and it allowed him to overcome whatever caused him to fight in the Archon War (which, I think, is Forbidden Knowledge that the squirrel possessed) and back down from the fight, becoming a mysterious ghost he is now. And the fox's followers had to escape to Inazuma, where they took control of the Sacred Sakura from tanuki. 4) If the above is right, this fairy tale might be our biggest clue on the nature of gods and the archon war. It's not gluttony - like Oceanids, they can become much greater by consuming one another. And then they can split apart, like when Makoto created Ei, or when Venti split from the rest of thousand winds.

    Tsaritsa is the Boar princess. Traveler is the wolf. From Tsaritsa perspective she is saving the world the Traveler is consuming it. Traveler kills the Doctor, the wise fox, and then the Jester, the old Turtle. Signora is the evil mage. She was cursing the Traveler before her end.

    @fringedpink 17 годин тому

    amazing video! i'd like to add another point i think will help your argument ^^ hans christian andersen also wrote "the snow queen" (see?), and the boar princess' overarching storyline most closely resembles the snow queen. a kid gets his heart pierced by a shard of glass/ice and becomes bitter, skeptical, and is essentially abducted by the snow queen. he sees nothing but bad in the world and in people. his best friend, a young girl, goes on a journey and meets various people and helps them out, and they help her in turn to find her friend again. at the end, with the help of a magical old lady whom she helped earlier on her journey, she manages to melt away the ice shards stuck in her friend's heart, and the story ends happily. at least this is what I remember of the tale. the titular snow queen actually has very little part in it... make of this what you will!

  • @3u760
    @3u760 18 годин тому

    I can't believe you're not mentioning the Snow Queen by Andersen one bit? (which is the reference for The Boar Princess book) Actually, you know who else read the Boar Princess book? it's Nahida. And I think Nahida is one of the example of Boar Princess's character in action because for some reason, Wanderer reminds me of the wolf pup (and Ratatoskr would be Dottore or something). But after thinking about it again, her Homecoming SQ is more fitting to the whole scenario (Nahida = Boar Princess, Apep = Wolf pup, companions = Apep's family, Ratatoskr = Deshret) Also, something about the namecard for the Imaginarium Theater achievement reminds me one of the characters from the Snow Queen, Kai, which the Queen promised him if he is able to spell "eternity" correctly, she would free him. "There must be an eternity forged from "memory" at the end of this path."

    • @3u760
      @3u760 18 годин тому

      Now, I think, factions of Teyvat's rebellion kinda had this thing about trying to be the best one on saving humanity's humanity (?). Controversial but by this, I might think that Tsaritsa would be the wolf pup than she's being the Snow Queen if somehow she's like Kai? Because she's trying to make the good ending (eternity) for human beings (?)

    • @3u760
      @3u760 17 годин тому

      ^ That under the premise if Tsarista < who ever the real Fischl is. Because of this namecard: Snowy Land (Snezhnaya Does Not Believe in Tears) And Fischl novel's ending: "Indeed. A Prinzessin does not shed tears.That was merely a natural secretion from her royal eyes, affronted as they were by the untimely intrusion of those impudent grains of sand." (Unless if she's somehow the real Fischl though) - (And it's actually ironic because technically Fischl would shed tears because of the dust) (But also keep in mind that the game have their own lore agenda, I keep forgetting that they like to swap things from irl reference, whatever it would be) Sorry if that doesn't make sense, just trying to throw things around about what I think the potential connections are 🙏

    • @3u760
      @3u760 17 годин тому

      ...still in a intrusive train of thoughts, The physical depiction of Boar Princess kinda reminded me of Rosaria, and the wolf pup is Razor. It seems like they have no connection to that book (which so far, it is) and Rosaria seems to be the cold hearted one but someone pointed out that Razor's last birthday art having him playing with a wolf puppet that looks like the wolf in Imaginarium Theater. I don't know if that's anything but I think about it.

    This story is like 100% allegories, all these characters are representations of actual beings that behaved in the same way. Not so much gluttony but the overarching sin which is greed, just the wanting of something. Representations in the most evil way where you completely disregard the negative effects on others while you get what you want. The boar princess is about the satiation of desires (for power, for sustenance, for anything) without consequences. Given that we know that godly power in genshin can be consumed and gained (consecrated beasts, lectors) and used it certainly brings it to a different light. Who did the 5 sinner's consume then?

    Speaking of origins. Did you know that the name "Erinnyes" is a mistake? The original name is "Errighenth", which means "High female ruler". It was misread by the modern citizens due to the ancient text being obscure, the "gh" looked like "y", so the name was mistranslated by error.

    i feel like the boar princess might be the previous cryo archon. not the tsaritsa, but her predecessor (so cocolia?). the wolf pup could be pierro, and what they're working together on now might be because of whatever happened to the prev cryo archon. whichever archon the princess is, i could almost see tartaglia and pulcinella being the fox and turtle, who might get sacrificed for the fatui's plan. but that's probably crack.
