4.2 archon quest spoilers

~~~

i love the idea of furina getting herself a plushie collection after she steps down as archon. it wasn't something she could allow herself when she was still seen as a god (beneath her station) but now she can indulge in cute, comforting things.

There's something to the fact that Focalors and Zhongli gave up their role as archons in wildly different ways.

Zhongli fakes his own death, meaning he chooses to give up his authority, not necessarily his power. Once he's given up his authority and role as archon (and traded the gnosis), Zhongli no longer helps his people. The Adepti and the Qixing defeat Osial and his wife entirely without his help. Arguably, that's fair. If he's no longer acting as the archon of Liyue, it is no longer his responsibility to defend Liyue, any more than it's any citizen's responsibility. But again, Zhongli has given up his position and his gnoses, but not his power as an archon. For all his talk about letting the people of Liyue govern themselves, Zhongli does nothing to prevent another geo archon from taking his place or to shield his people from Celestia.

Focalors, on the other hand, completely surrenders her power and divinity. She makes the decision to sacrifice her own wishes, life, and power for the good of Fontaine. When Focalors gives up her power, she well and truly gives it up. She doesn't cling to it and fade into the background, leaving any future problems for the citizens to deal with- she ensures that the people of Fontaine have a guardian who loves them with the necessary power to protect them. It comes at a tremendous cost to both parts of herself, Furina and Focalors, but she doesn't hesitate. And even though we know Furina is exhausted, lonely, terrified, and would step down in a second if it was possible, the thought never crosses her mind. If her suffering was weighted against all of Fontaine's there's no question which way the scales would tip. Focalors gives up her archonhood as an act of sacrifice, a completely selfless decision to protect Fontaine and return the hydro archon's power to its rightful owner. When Zhongli gives up his archonhood, the geo archon's throne is still fully intact. Zhongli's choice is partially to let the people of Liyue rule themselves, sure, but it's also because he's tired of doing it himself. So when Zhongli gives up his archonhood, he takes his power and leaves his people to deal with the fallout.

Focalors sacrifices herself for a "sin" her predecessor committed, while Zhongli lets his people deal with the consequences of his rise to power. I think it's a really interesting comparison between justice and law/contracts and the different ways they would tackle the same problem. To me, the quest really cemented the issue I had with Zhongli's character and the way he's discussed. Basically, if he was acting selflessly, with the people of Liyue's best interests in mind, he would have carried out his "death" more like Focalors', with a proper successor ready and waiting (or at least the government informed), all of his remaining duties handled, no giant vortex monsters waiting to jump out at his people. Focalors made sure her people were protected and the head of government was (to the best of her ability) informed, and she was under way more pressure than Zhongli. There isn't a particular point to this, I just think it's really interesting how differently Focalors and Zhongli handled giving up their positions.

#this isn't even getting into how much older Zhongli is #and how he was around before the archon war #and probably around for the dragon situation #or at least some of the fallout #the law and justice are different I guess is what I'm getting at #always thought something was just a little off with Zhongli's whole deal #thank you focalors for helping me put my finger on it #focalors #furina #zhongli #fontaine #4.2 archon quest #genshin lore #genshin rambles #liyue #archon quest #genshin impact

So, I've thinking about this. Focalors saying the line "Farewell, Neuvillette. I hope you enjoyed the part you played these five hundred years" wasn't just a farewell from the divinity-self for Neuvillette, but it is a farewell from both aspect—the divinity and humanity side—the whole Focalors the Hydro Archon.

It is a good bye from Focalors' divinity because after that, the divinity would completely perished.

It is a good bye from her human side, because after that, her role has already finished.

After she lost her divine part of herself along with the destruction of the hydro archon's divine throne, she's no longer the archon. After the prophecy fulfilled and everyone saved, her role has already finished. And it's time to get off from the stage, putting off all the facade that shown before.

She's free. And now she is a human again.

It's a farewell because the Furina he knows, the Focalors he knows for 500 years would really left him alone in that "stage".

(Oh, and his part he played also over now. And it is up to him to decide what he want to do next—either stay or not. But we already know his decision, right?)

It is a bye-bye because after that, the Hydro Archon will no longer exist.

But Furina still there, right? Yes. She's there. But she's no longer the same. Because this Furina doesn't need to wear her mask and act again.

So the next time they meet, the next time their fate will be intertwined again, I would say that's a whole new chapter. A new beginning. Because this time, Neuvillette will be able to see and know the real Furina. The one that's not disguise as anyone.

Today I finished 4.2's Archon Quest. I have to say, I'm not totally satisfied with the plot of Fontaine, but some of the cutscenes were too pretty and angst not to draw ç_ç

Remember when Focalors said, “Hydro Dragon, Hydro Dragon, don’t cry” to Neuvillette right before she died and then he tried so hard not to cry before she died right infront of him…

Things Mihoyo didn't answer?????

like i have so many questions regarding the latest archon quest and they all involve Childe?? like, for example-

Why was he in Fontaine in the first place? what did it mean that "he felt restless" and "needed to fight ppl to get rid of his foul mood" ??

Why did his vision malfunction?? was that Focalors' doing?

Where is his vision story??? how did he get it???

why was he declared guilty by the oratrice? was that also Focalors' doing? was it all part of her grand scheme

how was neuvillette's one punch strong enough to knock him out but he had to fight the narwhal for who knows how long

how tf did he awaken that narwhal that is somehow really connected with him?

How did he even get to the primordial sea, or whatever plane of existence the all devouring narwhal lives in? how long did he fight it?

Why did he have to be yeeted back to snezhnaya?????? like he was yesterdays trash or smth😭 skirk even does the hand clapping thing after that??? and then 5 seconds later she completely forgets about having a disciple??

Why did mihoyo have to pull this bs again where they give us such a lore important character but dont give us any lore on them at all 😔 one kaeya was alr enough they needn't pull that shit again come on. and i swear if we have to wait till snezhnaya to get all of these answers i'm gonna shrivel up like a raisin : )

#im just salty about no chilumi interaction okay #but srsly though how can this dumbass be the indirect root cause of the great flood and reveal almost nothing about himself #genshin impact #childe #neuvillette #4.2 spoilers #4.2 archon quest #btw i'm new to tumblr #pls tell me this is how youre supposed to do it TT
