Miaoyin tinha tudo para ter uma vida de luxo. Filha única de uma de empresários ricos em Xangai, a jovem foi mimada desde o momento de seu nascimento como uma verdadeira princesa, com as roupas mais extravagantes e os melhores brinquedos, e principalmente, a presença frequente da mãe, que preferiu trabalhar em casa para criar a menina perto dela, apesar da ajuda das empregadas. Ainda quando pequena, Miaoyin ficou doente, precisando passar por uma série de cirurgias, desde o olho direito até um transplante de fígado, o que criou uma superproteção dos pais, que mal a deixavam sair para brincar depois que conseguiu alta. Foram anos estudando em casa, resultando em frequentes crises de ansiedade e obsessões que mudaram a cada três meses, tudo porque seu tempo não era bem ocupado. Ficava entediada, se sentia presa e precisava descontar aquilo nas suas obsessões: começou com a coleção de Barbies, então foi para a dança, depois a coleção de roupas, então o vício em filmes adolescentes, até chegar no k-pop. Oh Deus, o k-pop… Aquele se tornou a sua maior e mais frequente obsessão. Pessoas bonitas, músicas marcantes, um idioma que para seus ouvidos era melódico. Miaoyin passou a adolescência gastando o dinheiro dos seus pais com álbuns e mais álbuns, já que não a permitiam ir para shows. Seus amigos? Todos virtuais, mas que compartilhavam a mesma obsessão que ela. Miaoyin se sentia completa e compreendida com suas amizades online e sua coleção de produtos coreanos, mas no fim da adolescência, viu que não estava satisfeita. Cansada de ficar presa em casa e ser superprotegida pelos pais, mesmo com uma saúde estável, Miaoyin fez um escândalo, pegando uma boa parte do dinheiro dos pais e fugindo para Coreia aos 19 anos, onde se juntou com algumas de suas amigas virtuais para viverem em um apartamento conjunto. Ali na Coreia, Miaoyin gastou e gastou com seus ídolos, participando de shows, os seguindo em turnês e entrando no fanclub oficial, até que a grana começou a sumir. Percebendo que precisava de mais dinheiro para manter seus mimos, entrou em contato com os pais, mas diferente do que pensou, eles se recusaram a enviar dinheiro para que ela continuasse com aquele vício, como uma forma de punição pela fuga. Os pais decidiram ajudar pagando apenas pela sua parte do aluguel, enviando o dinheiro diretamente para a senhoria, obrigando a jovem chinesa a procurar estudar e trabalhar. Irritada e sem querer fazer uma faculdade, Miaoyin preferiu fazer um curso para banho e tosa, onde pelo menos trabalharia com animais, coisa que ela gostava tanto quanto o entretenimento coreano. Foi assim que conseguiu um trabalho como tosadora e tenta se manter até hoje com esse salário.

Translating the navigator/songstress's songs from CN:

"Listen with me to the deep groan of the great whale, and to the sound of the waves. When the current and wind direction are correct, set sail towards the deep sea. To the long-dead gods, to my old master, Please let me weave the chaotic ocean currents into a chart, Guide every soul to return to his hometown safely."

"Walk with me into the abyss of the storm, and listen to the deep groaning of the underworld. When the current and wind direction are correct, sail slowly towards the maelstrom. I heard the whispers of my late mother, blessing her heirs: Let them survive the dance of fierce winds and whirlpools, Let the lair of the sea beast shake the harpoon of the warriors. "

Also, about the Skipper: "through his small eyes, the sea beast saw a heart darker than the abyss" (and that is before losing his navigator)

I have questions. Who the hell is this guy. What's his deal. Why the dark heart.

"Sing with me the departure song of the ocean, the song of my joy. When the current and wind direction are correct, I will leave him. I heard the old Lord's call, and the source is waiting for me to return. Please remember me and the lost master, repeat this melody. One day, you will find me, sleeping at the bottom of the abyss… ——Perhaps at that time, you have also been swallowed by the deep dark vortex. "

Who is the navigator's old master? Orobashi? Phanes? The narwhal? Chi themselves?

Watatsumi had a tradition of whale songstresses, but this is happening in Liyue waters (although Inazuma is near enough).

And it makes me think of Angelica from Perinheri. As Karl Ingold mentions in the footnotes, "her name may have been "Lady Miaoyin" (Lady of Wondrous Sound)" and her god is supposed to be dead.

There's no mention of whales but Perinheri is based on Orlando innamorato and Angelica is offered as a sacrifice to a sea beast there (although she gets saved).

About Foul Legacy's blade looking like the Narwhal's tusk (someone on Reddit found it). I think it's a Gae Bulg reference, Cu Chulainn's spear made out of sea monster's bones.

Since, you know, our boy is a Cu Chulainn reference anyway.

That monster, Curruid, was killed by another monster, Coinchenn. I don't think Coinchenn was a whale (the name means "dog-headed" and I don't remember a description in any legend) but Lovecraft later borrowed her name for a being combining whale, fish and octopus traits.

Which sounds exactly like the monster Parsifal and the Skipper were hunting. According to the Serpent Spine sword description, it could also be a Chi, or the Chi (although unlikely), or just a thing rumoured to be a Chi, since Genshin is full of unreliable narrators.

And then there's that weird thing with the sea/whale songstress that the tentacled monster ate. I don't know what was her deal.

I don't know what to make of it.

ohhh or maybe Gong Yu and her excruciating crush, god the scene where Mei Changsu visits Miaoyin Court and Yujin inadvertently reveals that she's laid on all this special treatment for him, and then she has to pretend to meet him for the first time while very clearly dying inside

another NiF rewatch, another minor character to grow unreasonably attached to. I think this time it might be Yan daifu

这番对话墨燃也听见了，听得直想笑，又不敢笑，目光追逐着楚晚宁的背影，心想这个一本正经的人，怎么就会喜爱自己呢？怎么就会愿意跟自己在一起呢……

他胸腔中又是温暖又是苦涩，酸甜交织着，散了课之后，授课的青书殿内，他就忍不住抱住正在收拾宗卷的楚晚宁，把人拥在怀里宠溺地亲吻着。

楚晚宁恼怒，拿竹简敲他的头，边敲边说：“都是你想的好主意，妙音池……这下好了，我成什么了？”

墨燃忍着笑，鼻尖蹭着他的耳根，声音低缓温柔，明知故问道：“师尊成什么了？”

楚晚宁没有想到他竟然这么无耻，不由瞪大了眼睛：“你——！”

梨涡都要酿成蜜了，墨燃又亲了亲他，笑道：“那些师弟也真是扯，狐狸精？采……那什么……哈哈，采阳补阴？”

“你再说我杀了你。”楚晚宁差点把竹简塞他嘴里去。

墨燃笑道：“唔……那能选死法么？被妙音池的狐狸精采阳采到死，也是很好的一件事……”

“墨微雨！！”

自此之后，楚晚宁就再也不肯跟墨燃去妙音池沐浴了。- Ch. 197

Mo Ran also heard this exchange. He really wanted to laugh while listening, yet he didn’t dare, his eyes tracking the back of Chu Wanning’s figure. He thought, this type of proper person, how could he like me? How could he want to be with me...

Warmth and bitterness filled his chest, sour and sweet intertwining. After class was dismissed, he couldn’t help but hug Chu Wanning in the teaching library, who was in the midst of organizing scrolls. He held him in his arms and kissed him indulgently.

Chu Wanning was furious, knocking a bamboo slip against his head. As he hit him, he said: “This was all your great idea. Miaoyin Pool... now, what have I become?”

Mo Ran held back a smile, rubbing the tip of his nose against his ear, his voice soft and tender, intentionally asking though he clearly knew the answer: “What has Shizun become?”

Chu Wanning didn’t think he was actually this shameless. He stared at him with wide eyes: “You—!”

His dimples almost oozing honey, Mo Ran kissed him again, smiling as he said: “Those shidi were really reaching, a fox spirit? Extracting... what was it... haha, extracting yang and replenishing yin?”

“If you keep talking I’ll kill you.” Chu Wanning almost stuffed the bamboo slip in his mouth.

Mo Ran said, laughing: “Ohh... can I choose the way I die? Having the Miaoyin Pool fox spirit extract my yang until I die is a pretty good thing...”

“Mo Weiyu!!”

After this, Chu Wanning never again agreed to go with Mo Ran to Miaoyin Pool to bathe.

“Shixiong, shixiong, let me tell you, there is a fox spirit in the Miaoyin Springs.”

“Ah? What do you mean?”

“Yesterday, after I finished bathing at Plum Blossom House and was about to go back, I heard a faint sound of something in the distance… Uh… There was such a commotion…”

Qué vergüenza. 🤣💔

Hmmm...

1. The Blossoms of Meiling - Snow, Fur, Blood: “It ended quite quietly. “

2. The Blossoms of Meiling - The Most Mysterious of Poisongs: “I said I couldn’t eat them,” Mei Changsu protested, “not that I didn’t like them. “

3. The Blossoms of Meiling - Warhorses: “On good days Nihuang can just about get around without a cane, and so she does, ambling almost smoothly around the garden of the Mu residence in a little town in eastern Yunnan.”

4. that once bent bows - Miaoyin Court: “Yan Yujin was a frequent visitor to Miaoyin Court, to their great events of dancers and rank on rank of musicians.”

6. True Things: “For the last time,” Jingyan snarls, “that Mei fellow is not welcome here.”

7. Old Soldiers: ““They say the tendons will heal,” Wei Zheng said, resting his head back against the brocade pillows that propped up his upper body.”

8. for most this amazing: “i thank You God for most this amazing day:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees and a blue true dream of sky;and for everything which is natural which is infinite which is yes...” (e. e. cummings)

9. Banking Fire: “Xufeng watched Jinmi’s hands as she picked up small bricks of charcoal with delicate tongs and fed them into the burning heart of the little firepot. “

10. Lone Dumb Husky and Cub: “Chu Wanning woke to darkness, and warmth. “

Patterns, patterns, patterns... I’ve done a lot of Very Short Fic, lately, that’s one. (And a lot of c-dramas.) Probably that I try to get a main character announced as early as possible, and with a relatively short sentence to imply what they’re doing there.

I think my current favourite is #5, which sums up both Lin Chen’s dickishness, and his care. (He goes through a lot, in Nirvana in Fire. Give him this.)

vol.2

That day, the orphanage welcomed a new member. She was a beautiful young lady from a foreign land who claimed to be a noble princess. Her nation had been defeated by Deus Auri, and yet the daughter of a priestly line she remained, and would not submit to the new god, and so she had drifted, wandering through the gates of their Kingdom. She called herself Angelica (Note 1), meaning "one who is as a divine emissary."

Note 1: Note that the ancient people of Liyue did not use such names. Now that I consider it, her name may have been "Lady Miaoyin" (Lady of Wondrous Sound) or "Tianwang Nu" (Servant of Tianwang).

"The golden god/God of gold". Zhongli? Or heavenly principles? Or The Primordial One? Istaroth who built the artificial sun? We have so many moons but no sun gods.

In the midst of that most merciless of pursuits, the three left the Kingdom's borders. At that very moment, Hleobrant clutched his face, and the words escaping his mouth gradually grew more like the howling of a wild beast. The witch, Angelica, explained thus: "Hleobrant is the descendant of those who forsook their god and came to the Kingdom. This is why the Kingdom's obstinately pure-blooded aristocracy persists. This is the price of betraying your own god." "As for you, Perinheri, you are one who drifted there. Thus, you bear no such curse. You may not have the nobility to shoulder a world, but you too have your own destiny." "And as for me? I betrayed no one, not for a moment, until my god died, so I too bear this curse not. But you now see who I truly am, yes?" The sun rose over the horizon at that moment, and Perinheri's blade slipped from his fingers, exhausted from the night-long battle. Covering his forehead with the back of his hand, he looked upon the sun for the first time. And when he glanced back at Angelica, he saw that she was neither a beautiful woman from Liyue nor a wicked witch. "I am freedom, that which has broken free of fate. This is what Hleobrant sought in agony, but that which is now yours for the taking." There was nothing before Perinheri, only vast, empty land.

I can't say if it's a metaphor or not. Apparently some Khaenri'ahns can't go to the surface? But some can and have done so in the fist tome. We also have met some at this point.

Also, hmm, they weren't godless to begin with, they betrayed their god somehow.

Hezenzirkel members being invisible to the eye. The dog in Canotila's book being a rifthound sometimes, depending on who looks. Not following gods coming with a price for some reason.

Also.

Njord, who walks with the Darksprites (Note 2) Note 2: The black wolves of the first edition. Archaeological work on Khaenri'ah indicates that this must have been a type of warbeast created using alchemy. Alchemy and the Beastmaster Knights were a mainstay during the Crimson Moon Dynasty, but interest in mechanical engineering during the Eclipse Dynasty would cause it to fall behind.

Rifthounds, I assume, but also see my post on Surtalogi and wolf symbolism.

Excerpts and thoughts under the cut

vol.1:

"In those days, a crimson moon shone down upon the subterranean realm, and not the dark sun of latter days."

Something something Eclypse dynasty.

Due to the Kingdom's unique position, things from outside this world were always leaking into it. The Kingdom's weapons would wipe out the calamities slipping in, but what of all the other objects? Such as, say, a child who may have come from some destroyed world?

What the hell what the hell what the hell

"Oh high lord of the nobles, a child once told me a tale of another world: Once upon a time, there were sea people who believed that the gods came from the sea. Each time they discovered a shipwrecked person, they would treat them with the utmost honor, for they believed that the gods would take the form of the shipwrecked to investigate the mortal realm."

I can't connect it with anything but I feel it's important. Parsifal's and Skipper's story mention a shipwreck. Two, actually. In some sense the twins are shipwrecked and Paimon was fished out of the sea.

The ocean and the sea were often used as a metaphor for the space projected by the stars.

Why sea and Abyss get conflated with it sometimes: Khaenri'ans were more familiar with the Abyssal stars than the sea.

In anticipation of the arrival at their Kingdom of gods from beyond the so-called ocean — or rather, the arrival of beings who could transcend the gods — they founded an organization, an orphanage to take care of such children. In latter days, the orphans of the Kingdom and those who wandered in from outside were accepted as well.

Everything fun in Teyvat is made by kids in orphanages.

The young Perinheri's first memory was that of being asked by the grown-ups to crawl through a dark corridor. This passage might have been a chimney for winter fires, for it was filled with coal ash, and there was not a single crack in it through which smoke or light could pass through. As he crawled, he would sometimes stumble in the pitch-black darkness. Fortunately, the corridor appeared designed for the passage of children in the first place, so the falls were not very painful. It also lacked any annoying cobwebs. When Perinheri reached the end at last, the exit had not opened yet. He knocked, only for the grown-ups to coldly ask: "Are you dead?" Well, how was he to reply if he was dead? But the grown-ups did not like this response. They kept asking the same question, until he at least shouted, "Yes, I'm dead!" The adults then asked, "Did you see it, then?" Perhaps it was the fear brought on by the darkness combined with hunger and exhaustion, but Perinheri did indeed see an illusion. The crimson moon, hanging high in the pitch-dark night sky, suddenly turned around, revealing itself to be a titanic, horrified eye. The adults opened the door and embraced the soot-covered Perinheri: "You have traversed the fire of two worlds within the hearth, and here you are reborn."

Moons being goddesses' corpses, the fake sky, whales, the rebirth ritual in the narcissenkreuz notes. Again, I can't connect it.

Though the crimson moon set, and the dark sun descended into a yet darker dusk, that transcendental person from beyond who the Kingdom orphanage was awaiting never arrived. But unusual individuals they had aplenty, and many of those who strode forth from the gates of that orphanage became great knights of the Kingdom. Perinheri was, in his time, the leading figure amongst their ranks — that is, unless, he were forced to compete with his best friend, Hleobrant.

tl;dr: Khaenri'ah casually welcomed travelers from between worlds, visitors from dead worlds especially. or at least hoped to but didn't get many
