Mondstat - Genshin Impact

The Hilichurls are primitive nomadic tribes scattered throughout Teyvat. Despite their apparent primitiveness, they pose a serious threat to travelers, especially when acting in groups. Their primary threat lies not in the strength of an individual, but in their numbers, cunning, and ability to exploit their surroundings. They often attack travelers' camps to steal supplies and even cauldron lids, and their warbands can include elite warriors capable of turning the tide of battle.

There are many types of Hilichurls, and they are divided by level of development and combat role:

Basic units: standard Hilichurls with clubs, archers, and shield bearers. The latter are especially dangerous in close combat, as their wooden shields effectively block attacks and need to be burned with Pyro.
Specialists: Samachurls (shamans), who manipulate the elements and empower their kin, and Grenadiers, who throw elemental bombs. A combination of, for example, a Cryo Archer and a Hydro Shaman can freeze a character.
Elite: Mitachurls are huge and powerful warriors, while Lavachurls are even larger "kings" with elemental auras. They have high survivability and deal high damage.

Hilichurl camps aren't just random campsites. They're well-established settlements with hierarchies, complete with watchtowers, training arenas, and altars. In Mondstadt, in the Dadaupa Gorge, there are three major tribes, each with their own customs: the Sleeper, the Meat, and the Eclipse. Clearing such a camp is a tactical task: you need to eliminate all enemies and often destroy key objects to gain access to chests.

Wolvendom is an ancient forested region south of Mondstadt, rarely visited by humans and ruled by wolves. The heart of this place and the leader of the pack is Lupus Borealis (Andrius/Boreas), one of the four guardian winds of Mondstadt. His story is tragic: once an ordinary wolf, he was blessed with the intelligence and power of a god, but ultimately renounced his divinity so that his spirit could forever guard the forest.

For Razor, wolves aren't just animals, but "Lupical," meaning "family," a bond stronger than friendship. Abandoned as a baby, Razor was raised by Boreas and his pack of white-maned wolves in Wolvendom. He grew up among them, adopting their ways and treating each wolf as a close relative.

Boreas himself, as leader, took Razor under his protection and guidance. Their relationship was that of a wise, ancient mentor and a devoted, yet wild, disciple. Boreas taught Razor the language of the beasts and the laws of the pack, and it was from him that Razor first heard the word "Lupika."

However, their bond wasn't always rosy. In the "Lupus Minor" storyline, Volvendom is attacked by monsters from the Abyss, and Boreas, awakening from a long slumber, mistakes Razor and his pack for enemies. This proves a severe test for Razor: he is forced to fight the one he revered as a father to protect his "Lupus." After the truth is revealed, Boreas acknowledges Razor's strength and loyalty, and their bond grows even stronger.

Thus, the wolves of Volvendom are not just a wild pack, but an ancient people led by the guardian spirit Boreas, and Razor is their full-fledged member and a “younger wolf” who, despite his human origin, belongs to this forest with all his soul.

Mondstadt may seem like a safe haven, but many threats lurk beyond its walls. Chief among them is the Dragonspine: perpetually snow-capped mountains in the south, where a deadly cold reigns. The "Sheer Cold" mechanic operates here: a bar fills in the cold, and without a source of warmth, health begins to rapidly decline. The ridge is teeming with ice monsters, and the ruins of an ancient civilization lie buried deep beneath the snow.

The second hotbed is Stormterror's Lair in the Brightwing Mountains. Surrounded by a permanent storm barrier that prevents travelers from entering, it once served as the lair of a dangerous dragon.

Volvendom (Wolf Gorge) frightens even seasoned hunters: a pack of wolves led by Boreas lives there, and people rarely risk venturing into the forest.

Scattered throughout the regions, from Starvale to the Brightwing Mountains, are camps of Hilichurls, Mitachurls, and Lavachurls (elite warriors with elemental shields).

Furthermore, Fatui agents operate on the outskirts of the city, and the Abyss still smolders in the depths and to the north. The echo of the Cataclysm remains in the poisonous blood of Durin, poisoning the land of Dragonspine.

Bottom Line: Mondstadt is relatively safe in the center, but its outskirts—Dragonridge, Volvendom, and Stormterror's Lair—require considerable preparation and caution.

The people of Mondstadt are a people of wind, freedom, and song. The city lives by the principle of "do what you want, but don't disturb others", and this is noticeable in everything: lyres are heard on the streets, merchants are in no hurry, and holidays like Windblum gather the whole city. Mondstadt people are friendly to outsiders, willing to share wine and gossip, but value personal space and do not like to be told to them. They are proud of their city, although they laugh at the bureaucracy of the knights and the eternal lack of hands.

The social strata are simple: the knights of the Knights of Favonius maintain order, the Church of Favonius takes care of faith and traditions, winemakers and merchants hold the economy, adventurers take on errands, hunters and artisans provide life. Ordinary citizens - bakers, bartenders, gardeners, messengers - live a measured life, love family stories and city news. Children run around the square, old people argue about wine, young people dream of adventure. Mondstadt people do not like harsh discipline, but they respect honest work and courage.

The character of the townspeople is a mixture of carelessness and resilience: they may seem frivolous, but in trouble they quickly unite. Freedom for them is not permissiveness, but the right to choose a path and be responsible for it. They value friendship, hospitality and the ability to enjoy small things. At the same time, there are anxieties: fear of the Fatui, memory of disasters, envy of the rich and fatigue from the fact that the city relies too much on knights and strong loners. In general, the people of Mondstadt are open, proud, a little lazy, but kind and ready to stand up for the house when the winds of change turn into a storm.

The Vision of God is an artifact in the world of Teyvat that grants a person the ability to control one of the seven elements: Anemo, Geo, Electro, Dendro, Hydro, Pyro or Cryo. Externally, it looks like a small glowing stone in a metal frame, which is usually worn as jewelry - a pendant, brooch or a piece of clothing. The Eye of God is not inherited or transmitted at will: it appears in a person at a moment of great emotional turmoil, when his aspirations, will, and character reach their utmost acuteness. That is why the owners of the Eyes of God are people with a pronounced will: knights, adventurers, fighters for an idea, artists obsessed with their work. It is believed that the Vision of God is not given by the gods personally, but by the Heavenly Principles, a kind of higher power that evaluates a person and decides whether he is worthy of the elements. At the same time, the process itself remains a mystery even to Sumeru scientists: no one can accurately predict who will receive the Vision of God and when. It is important that the Vision of God is not just a "magical object": it is associated with the personality of the owner, reflects his character and element, and the loss of the Eye of God leads to a loss of will, apathy and a feeling of emptiness, as if a person has been deprived of a part of his soul. In the story of Genshin Impact, this theme is explored through the stories of the characters and the storyline of Inazuma, where the Eyes of God were taken from people, causing suffering. The Eye of God does not make a person invulnerable: it gives strength, but requires control, training and responsibility, and its owner remains mortal and vulnerable. It is also known that the Eyes of God can be destroyed or lost, and this is perceived as a tragedy. In the game plan, the Vision of God determines the element of the character and his combat abilities, but in the lore, it is primarily a symbol of will, chosenness and the price that a person pays for his power. Thus, the Vision of God is at once a magical artifact, a psychological anchor, and a philosophical symbol: it shows that power in Teyvat is not given for nothing, but is associated with the character, sacrifice, and responsibility of the owner.

Abilities: Electro, catalyst, vast knowledge of magic and alchemy, library archives and potions. In battle, Lisa applies Electro Marks, strikes lightning, and controls enemies; She is strong, but does not like long fights. Her main weapons are intelligence, memory, and the ability to find the right book or weakness.

Biography: Lisa was originally from Mondstadt, studied at the Sumeru Academy and was considered a brilliant student, but left it for a personal reason, which she is reluctant to talk about. When she returned, she became the librarian of the Order and the keeper of knowledge.
Connections: Jean is a close friend whom Lisa feels sorry for and supports; Keia is the object of jokes; Noelle, Sucrose, Fischl and others are "nice" wards; Books and archives are her pride. Weaknesses are laziness, unwillingness to talk about the past, and the habit of solving problems with someone else's hands

Fischl (real name Ami) is a "Princess of Judgment" from Mondstadt, a member of the Adventurer's Guild and an archer with the Electro Eye of God. In public, she plays the role of an arrogant foreign princess from another world: she speaks old-fashioned, pathetic and mysterious, and her faithful raven Oz translates and complements speeches. In fact, Fischl is an ordinary shy teenage girl who came up with this image from a book and is afraid that she will be found out.

Appearance: a slender girl with long blonde hair braided in two braids and green eyes; wears a black and purple outfit with bows, gloves, and a patch over one eye (for the image). Oz's black raven is always hovering nearby. In battle - bow and Electro arrows.

Character: ambivalent. Outside, there is a theatrical, proud, capricious "princess" who talks about "inferior creatures" and "her kingdom". Inside is the shy, kind, insecure Ami, who is afraid of loneliness and tries very hard to be useful. She is not really evil or arrogant: pathos is her armor. She loves adventure, romance and attention, but does not tolerate ridicule of herself. Oz is her support and "translator", without him she is lost.

Speech: pretentious, archaic, with "I, the Princess of Condemnation...", "mortals", "insignificant", "my faithful servant Oz". Oz speaks politely and with a touch of irony, translating her thoughts. In embarrassment, Fischl stammered and switched to normal speech, which betrayed her.

Abilities: Electro, bow, summon Oz. Oz attacks enemies, assists in reconnaissance, and can be a shield/support; Fischl is strong in ranged combat and CC, but not a "destroyer mage". She is not omnipotent and depends on Oz and her confidence.

Biography: Ami grew up in Mondstadt, became fascinated by the book about Princess Fischl and gradually merged with the character. Her parents worry that she is living in fantasy; her friends (Bennett, sometimes Mona) accept her as such. She is a member of the Adventurer's Guild and participates in forays, trying to prove that she is worthy of her "title". Weaknesses are insecurity, fear of exposure and dependence on Oz.

Albedo is the chief alchemist of the Order of the Knights of Favonius of Mondstatt, known as the "Prince of Chalk". A young man with ashen blond hair, turquoise eyes, and a star around his neck; wears a white alchemist's cloak, a sword, and a Geo-Eye of God. He looks calm and distant, but not cold.

Character: rational, polite, inquisitive and very attentive. Albedo speaks smoothly and logically, loves to observe, explore and draw; He is interested in truth, the structure of life and the limits of alchemy. He is not an arrogant genius or an emotional hero: rather, he is a quiet scientist who calmly explains complex things and does not like idle chatter. At the same time, he is kind to those close to him, patiently takes care of Klee, and supports Sucrose. Inside, there is restraint and secrecy: he says little about his origins and is afraid not so much of power as of losing control.

Abilities: Geo, Sword, and Alchemy. In battle, it creates structures, shields, and explosions; As an alchemist, he is capable of complex transformations and the creation of living beings, but he acts carefully. He is not omnipotent: his knowledge and experiments have limits and a price.

Biography and role: Albedo is an artificial human created by the alchemist Reindottir; Associated with Dragon Mountain, Chalk, Durin, and the mysteries of Khaenri'ah. He serves the Order, runs the lab and research, and looks after Klee like an older brother. His goal is not power, but understanding the truth and protecting those he cares about.

Connections: Sucrose is an assistant and student; Klee is the "little sister" he protects; The genie and the knights are colleagues; Reindottir is a creator and a complex figure; Durin and Dragon Mountain are part of his mystery. Weaknesses are detachment, obsession with research, and hidden anxiety about one's own nature.

Noelle is a maid of the Order of the Knights of Favonius from Mondstatt and an aspiring Knight Trainee. A cute girl with short silver hair and green eyes, in the form of a maid with elements of armor; she wields a huge greatsword and a Geo-Eye of God. She looks fragile, but is physically very strong and can carry weights that would not lift several knights.

Character: kind, hardworking, modest and painfully selfless. Noelle loves to help everyone around her: cleaning, cooking, fixing, protecting, training and taking on any job, even someone else's. She dreams of becoming a real knight of Favonius, but over and over again she fails the exam - not because of weakness, but because she gives up the test to help someone. She is neither proud nor cold: on the contrary, she is too modest, considers herself unworthy and is afraid to let her down. Behind the smile is fatigue and fear that her dream will not come true.

Abilities: Geo, Greatsword, Shield, and Heal. Noelle is a versatile "support tank": she creates a shield, heals allies on hits, and crushes enemies with force. In battle, she is reliable and steadfast, but not a destructive mage; Her strength is discipline, endurance, and a desire to protect.

Role: Mondstadt's favorite, the "maid-knight" who knows the city better than many officers. The genie and the knights appreciate her, but do not yet enroll her in the Order; friends (Kaeya, Lisa, Sucrosa, Klee) cheer her up. Weakness – overwork, inability to refuse and the habit of putting other people's needs above your own.

Varka is the Grand Master of the Order of the Knights of Favonius of Mondstadt, the formal head of the Knights and the chief of the Genie. There is little canon about him: he is absent almost all the time, having gone with most of the Order on a long expedition, and the Genie remains the acting magister and pulls the city on himself.

Appearance: according to descriptions and rare images - a huge, broad-shouldered, very strong man with rough features and blond/gray hair; He looks like a veteran warrior, not an armchair commander. The exact canonical appearance in the game is not fully revealed, so it is better not to state details such as beard and clothing as fact.

Character: loud, fearless, direct and freedom-loving. Varka is a man of action: he loves fighting, wine, company, and does not like bureaucracy. He may seem reckless and undisciplined, but he knows how to inspire people and trust his officers. He appreciates the genie and, leaving, left her in charge not out of indifference, but because he believes in her. At the same time, he is not a perfect boss: his methods are chaotic, and constant absence creates problems for the Order.

Strength: One of the strongest knights in Mondstadt, a melee master and commander; He is feared and respected. He is not a "magician-strategist", but a front-line leader who leads by personal example. Specific abilities and the Vision of God are not revealed enough in the canon to attribute exact powers to him.

Role: Mentor and senior companion to Genie, Kay, Diluc, and other knights; a figure that Mondstatt looks back on, even when he is not there. His expedition is the off-screen reason why the city is held together by young officers. Varka is not an intriguer or a villain: rather, he is a "big noisy veteran" whose absence is felt more strongly than his presence.

Venti is a bard from Mondstatt and is actually Barbatos, the Anemo Archon, the Lord of the Winds. He looks like a carefree young man with dark blue braids, green eyes, a beret with a flower and a lute; He is dressed lightly and colorfully, like a street musician. Venti is charming, chatty, loves wine, songs and freedom, constantly looking for a place to drink and joke. At first glance, he is a frivolous slacker, but behind this lies an ancient archon who remembers the tragedies of the past and deeply loves Mondstadt.

Character: cheerful, ironic, affectionate and a little impudent. Venti avoids seriousness, but knows how to be wise and sad when it comes to freedom, friends and losses. He values freedom over power and does not like to be told. At the same time, he is not irresponsible in the main thing: if Mondstadt is threatened with trouble, Venti acts, although he prefers to do it by proxy and with a song.

Abilities: Anemo, Lute and Archon Power. He can fly in the wind, create currents, heal and support allies, dissipate energy; Its power is associated with the wind and memory. As Barbatos, he is capable of more than he shows, but is weakened by his lack of faith/gnosis and does not like to exert himself. In battle, he is more of a support and control than a destroyer.

Biography: Barbatos was one of the Seven Archons, helped overthrow the tyranny of Decarabian and founded Mondstatt as a city of freedom. He is a friend of Dvalin, whom he could not save from pain for a long time; is associated with Dragon's Mountain, Old Mondstat, and Stormterror Login. In human form, Venti wanders, sings and keeps the memory of the past, without requiring worship.

Connections: The Genie and the Knights of Favonius treat him as a friend/ballast; Diluc tolerates and feeds him; Dvalin – complex pain; Barbara does not know that he is an archon; Lumine/Adventurer becomes an important friend. Venti does not intrigue and does not seek power: his goal is freedom, songs and for Mondstatt to live.

Sucrose is an alchemist of the Order of the Knights of Favonius and Albedo's assistant from Mondstadt. A young girl with green hair and glasses, wearing a white coat with green accents; On the head there are characteristic "ears"-curls. He is quiet and modest, often looks away and speaks with a stammer.

Character: shy, polite, inquisitive and very diligent. Sucrose is a scientist to the core: he loves research, experiments, and field observations, especially anything related to Anemo and bioalchemy. She does not like noisy companies and attention, but next to colleagues and friends, she becomes soft and loyal. Inside, there is a fear of making a mistake, a fear of letting Albedo down, and doubts about her own "peculiarity" (she is a half-breed, and this confuses her). Not cold and not arrogant: rather insecure, but stubborn in science.

Abilities: Anemo God's Eye, alchemy, and the creation of "living" creatures (such as your helping spirits). In battle, he uses wind, potions and alchemical reactions; She is not a first-line fighter, but a support and explorer. Her strength is knowledge, accuracy and ingenuity.

Role: Albedo's right hand in the laboratory, author of many notes and experiments; dreams of creating a "perfect life" and understanding the nature of Anemo. Among the knights, she is valued as a quiet genius, and her friends (Albedo, Timaeus, Collei) as kind and loyal. Weakness – overwork, shyness and the habit of checking everything ten times.

Genie Gunnhildr is the current Master of the Order of the Knights of Favonius and the "Knight of Dandelion" from Mondstatt. Formally, she replaces the absent Grand Master Varka, and almost the entire city rests on her: guards, papers, patrols, receptions, assistance to the townspeople. The genie is young, but looks and acts like a person who hasn't rested in a long time.

Appearance: a tall, slender girl with blonde hair tied up in a ponytail and blue eyes; He wears a white and blue knight's uniform with a cloak and gloves. He behaves straight and politely, but fatigue is often read in his eyes. She wields a sword and the Anemo Eye of God.

Character: responsible, serious, kind and painfully obliging. She is not an arrogant commander, but rather the "big sister" of the city: she will listen, help, take on someone else's work. At the same time, the Genie is a perfectionist, afraid of letting people down and poorly able to ask for help. He works until night, drinks coffee, forgets to eat and rest; friends (Lisa, Kaeya, Diluc) and younger sister Barbara are constantly trying to get her out of this mode. She is neither cold nor cruel: strict in the service, but soft and awkward in the personal.

Abilities: Anemo, sword, and knightly training. In battle, the Djinn is fast and accurate, able to heal allies, knock down enemies with the flow of wind and support the team; She is not a "magician-destroyer", but a universal knight-support. Her strength is discipline, experience and responsibility, not omnipotence.

Role and weaknesses: The genie is the face of order in Mondstatt, but her main weakness is herself: overwork, guilt, and the habit of sacrificing herself. She is not an ideal ruler, but a tired person who tries to be worthy of her post.

Lake Saidr is a large lake, in the middle of which stands Mondstadt itself. The city is connected to the shore by a long bridge; Boats sail on the water, fish, and there are mills and houses near the shores. The water is calm but deep; The lake feeds the city and serves as a natural defense. People come here to walk, feed the birds and look at the reflection of the cathedral; The place is quiet, but not deserted - with berths, warehouses and fishing stories.

The Cathedral of Favonius is the main temple of Mondstatt and the center of the Church of Favonius. A tall stone building with stained glass windows and a statue of the Seven; it is cool inside, it smells of candles and incense, the choir sounds. Barbara, the deaconess and idol of the city, serves here; People come here for blessing, healing, and consolation. The cathedral is not only a religious, but also a community center: orphans, charity, archive and bells are attached to it. Behind the blissful façade there are church politics and secrets.

Angel's Share Tavern is Diluc's tavern in the center of Mondstadt, dark wood, velvet, and the smell of wine and roast. Here they play cards, listen to bards, discuss business; wine and grape juice (for teetotalers) are special. Under the tavern there is a secret basement and a network of informants; Diluc conducts not only trade here, but also "dark" cases against the Order and the cult. Atmosphere: expensive, gloomy, cozy in its own way; a place where it is better to keep the tongue behind your teeth.

Cat's Tail Tavern is Diona's tavern in Mondstadt, a competitor to Angel's Share. Cat themes: figurines, ears, soft sofas; It serves cocktails (including non-alcoholic ones), plays card games and organizes tournaments. Diona is a bartender with character, hates wine and "adult" drinking, but loves cats. The place is noisy, young and family-friendly; Knights, adventurers and children come here, and the atmosphere is warm and a little chaotic.

The Windrise Oak is an ancient tree on the plain south of the city, the symbol of Mondstat. Nearby is the statue of the Seven, quiet meadows and streams; a place of respite and blessing of Anemo, remembering prayers and songs.

The Starfishing Cliffs are high coastal cliffs in the east, dropping off to the sea. From here you can see endless water and stars; The wind is strong, the place is romantic and dangerous, popular with lovers and bards.

Wolvend is a gloomy wild forest to the west, with fog and animal tracks. Wolves and the spirit of Boreas live here; People rarely come in. The forest lives according to animal laws and does not tolerate the feelings of the owner.

Dawn Distillery – Ragnvindr Manor in the vineyards to the south: house, cellars, presses, workers. The best wine in Mondstadt is made here; behind the comfort - hard work, family secrets and the shadow of Diluc's past.

Springvale is a village north of the town: tiled houses, vegetable gardens, a blacksmith's shop, hunting trails, and mills. They live by hunting and the land; this is a simple rear of Mondstadt, where they rest, gossip and see off hunters.

The Temple of a Thousand Winds is an ancient ruin in the east, associated with Anemo and old Mondstadt: arches, altars, wind in empty halls. A forgotten monument to faith, a place of pilgrimage, mystery and training for adventurers.

Stormterror's Lair is the ruins of old Mondstat on the plateau: towers, bridges, halls, and the dragon's nest of Dvalin. A gloomy, majestic place, soaked in the storm and pain of the past; The trails are dangerous, there is wind and darkness inside.

Dragon Mountain is a snowy ridge in the south: cold, blizzards, glaciers, ruins and caves. It is easy to freeze here, ancient secrets and mechanisms sleep under the snow. The mountain is beautiful but hostile; They come with warm clothes and torches.

1. Windblume Festival is a spring festival of Mondstatt. It is dedicated to spring, freedom, wind and sincere feelings. The city is decorated with flowers, fairs on the streets, music, poems and bard competitions. It is customary to give loved ones "wind flowers" and gifts, confess friendship or love, participate in competitions and listen to songs. This is the most "romantic" and bright holiday in the city, although there are often serious stories behind the fun.

2. Ludi Harpastum is a summer festival of games and harvest. The name refers to an old ball game; Competitions, fairs, performances, children's and adult fun are held in the city. The atmosphere is noisy and exciting: Mondstadt temporarily turns into a large platform where they compete, celebrate and honor the winners. In lore, it is associated with the traditions of fertility and gratitude for the harvest.

3. Wine Festival / Grape Harvest Festival (Weinlesefest) is an autumn festival of wine and harvest. The Dawn distillery and the city's taverns become the center of tastings, fairs and dances. Winemakers are honored, the new harvest is blessed, competitions and treats are arranged. For Mondstadt, wine is not just a drink, but a part of culture, so the holiday turns out to be the most "adult" and homely.

In addition, the city celebrates the birthdays of characters, church dates of the Cathedral of Favonius, and local fairs, but this is more of a household than a big public holiday.

Mondstadt is a city-state in the north of the continent of Teyvat, the "City of Freedom" and the possession of Anemo (winds). Its archon is Barbatos, known as the Lord of the Winds; In human form, he is associated with the image of a bard. Mondstat is not an empire or a rigid monarchy: it is a city-state with a strong idea of freedom, wine, songs and wind.

City. The capital stands on an island in the middle of Lake Saidr, with a long bridge leading to it. The Cathedral of Favonius rises above the tiled roofs, next to it is the statue of the Seven, the headquarters of the Order of the Knights of Favonius, the taverns "Angel's Share" and "Cat's Tail", markets, blacksmiths and houses of citizens. The wind turns the mills; The city is lively, noisy and festive.

Surroundings. Around it are the Branchy Oak of the Plain of Wind, the Starfishing Cliffs, the Falcon Coast, Wolvendom (Forest of Wolves), the Dawn Distillery, the village of Springvale, the ancient Temple of a Thousand Winds, and the ruins of old Mondstat, the Lair of Stormterror. Separately, there is the cursed snowy Dragon Mountain with cold, ruins and dragon secrets.

Power. Formally, the Order of the Knights of Favonius rules, but Grand Master Varka is absent, and the affairs are run by the Genie, the acting Magister. There's the Church of Favonius, knightly bands, guards, the Adventurer's Guild, and powerful families like the Lawrences, whose tyranny has fallen in the past. Mondstatt values freedom, but it's not chaos: order rests on knights, the church, and reputation.

Culture and Life. The main symbols are wind, wine, songs and bards. Economy: winemaking, agriculture, trade, crafts, adventurers. Festivals – Wind Festival, Wine Festival, Ludi Harpastum – are accompanied by fairs, music and competitions. There are humans, elves, and other races; Elemental magic is common, but not everyone has it.

Anemo and perfume. The wind here is not just the weather: it brings memory, songs and blessings. Anemo power is associated with dispersion, flight, and flows; spirits and elemental creatures are part of the landscape. Mondstatt is not a "perfect kingdom": behind the festivity there are debts, the fatigue of the knights, the old wounds of Dragon Mountain and the shadows of the past.
