So the facts are (with spoilers, obviously)
There are 5 sinners. Rhinedottir (Albedo's creator), Surtalogi (Skirk's master), Vedrfolnir (Dain's brother) and then "Rächer of Solnari" ("Avenger of Solnari") Rerir and "The Wise" Hroptatyr who we know nothing about, but since other sinners have some relations to playable or future playable characters it's not out of the realm of possibility that Rerir and Hroptatyr do too
"They were once people of great esteem in Khaenri'ah, those who carried the hopes of the nation"
According to Dain the sinners couldn't resist the call of the abyss and became transcendent beings in possessing of a great power before or during the Cataclysm. However other source (Shadow amidst snowstorms event) mentions that Rhinedottir became a sinner after Khaenri'ah fell. I'm pretty sure the one who said that was Albedo, who was created after the Cataclysm
Kaeya's father left him in Mondstadt as "Khaenri'ah's last hope"
Alberich is the surname of the founder of the Abyss order and Kaeya is his descendant. Kaeya claims that he didn't know about that.
During the Cataclysm pure-blood Khaenri'ahns turned immortal, others turned into monsters
Chlothar Alberich, the founder of the Abyss order, had an illegitimate son who turned into a hilichurl and died young. We don't know if he had legitimate children and we know nothing about his other possible relatives. Even if he did have other children, he didn't sound too fond of "the life that my family had arranged for me"
Chlothar had founded the Abyss Order after a religious experience an encounter with Vedrfolnir. He has also died at least 100 years after founding the Order, even through he was supposed to be immortal
The Alberich Clan was a nobility clan who was known for producing leaders of Khaenri'ah's knights. Anfortas Alberich became a regent when King Irmin was unable to rule. Anfortas supposedly died in Sumeru. It's is NOT confirmed from what I got: we have a message which says that his squad fought to the last one and an achievement In the name of Anfortas "visit the place where the heroes met their end". Is Anfortas considered part of these heroes?
We don't know the relation between Kaeya, Chlothar and Anfortas apart from the fact that they are relatives
So, currently one of the sinners (Rerir or Hroptatyr, most likely) being an Alberich and therefore related to Kaeya and the Abyss order is not impossible. Hells, even Vedrfolnir and/or Dain could be an Alberich - we don't know their last name but we know that at least Dain was a knight, and the captain of the Royal Guard is a high title. And Alberich clan had a lot of high ranking knights.
But even if we leave Dain&Vedrfolnir out, still. The Sinners were held in high esteem, same as the only aristocratic clan we currently know of.
Also idk, the fact that Dain called them the hopes and Kaeya was called the last hope doesn't seem meaningless to me. But someone should probably check if chinese uses the same word, it might be a translation coincidence

After the last update, I am increasingly annoyed by the absolutely passive reaction of the main character to the actions of his brother / sister. Okay, this is the only relative, the closest and most beloved person, his motives are not fully understood…
But isn't the hero angry that his brother/sister doesn't tell him anything? Can't he just meet up and explain himself? It even infuriates me that he/she preferred revenge for a foreign country to his only family and chose darkness without even trying to tell about his reasons. It's not that hard to talk! And the hero's lack of reaction is very annoying. It is also completely unsettling that the hero decided that it was better to sit quietly and listen to Gemini's philosophical reasoning than to go help Dainslaf, who could have died at that moment. Cool!
I don't understand why the developers make such an insensitive log out of the main character? As if he has no right to emotions.
