I would really love a video about just the celestial nails and all their locations and potentially effects that they caused as I never heard of a nail being on tsurumi and it seems like a very fascinating topic. Please and thank you. Love your videos and I hope you will get more recognition cuz this channel is CRIMINALLY underrated.

Unlike Tsurumi Island, we do actually know where the nail on Mt. Damavand is. Ofc we can't climb it, but we can make it out. It's what the blue light inside the largest sandstorm at the center of Mt. Damavand is. When Deshret used the nail's power to create the Eternal Oasis, he built it atop the nail. I think from the Secret Keeper's Magic Bottle, we can also assume how the Goddess of Flowers died. In the description before she dies, she says: "I shall fashion you a bridge to allow you to slake your deepest wants. But you must fear not the *crystalline sapphire nail*..." Later comes the part where the bottle describes her death; "Wreathed in darkness, she guided her dearest friend toward the path to understanding all there was to know about the skies and the abyss. Using her body as a conduit and offering the oasis in trade, she let the dazzling radiance consume her to see his deepest desires be made manifest... Sandstorms swept in revelrous havoc across the paradise that was now missing one of its gods, folding the skies with yellow sand, swallowing all in calamity... King Deshret returned from the swirling sands that devoured the skies. The Lord of Flowers, however, was never seen again." I believe she was teaching Dehsret the forbidden knowledge about Celestia and the abyss atop Mt. Damavand in the dead of night, and after she revealed it, she stood at the very peak and center of the mountain. The "dazzling radiance" that consumed her was the nail, which came down and impaled her. The nail created the great sandstorm surrounding itself at the center of the mountain, as well as the other sandstorms we see across the desert of Hadramaveth, and Deshret emerged from the great sandstorm alone. Her dying there's probably also partially the reason why Deshret built the Eternal Oasis atop the nail. The final quote in the bottle further proves this is where she passed; "... I just dreamed of you... feeling your way through the walls of a *crystalline* maze... All that can be seen... is but sand..." I interpreted this as Deshret dreaming of the Goddess of Flowers' spirit roaming about within the nail itself, and looking out to see nothing but the sand that makes up the giant sandstorm that envelops it.

I'm telling you bro, the seelies are the eyes... in fact when you chase them back to their little nest to get your chest, they sit they're looking like an eye on a pedestal meant to sit there, observe and collect data

I'm really looking forward to Nahida's 2nd story quest because we never really got to see her talking about the other gods of sumeru, we've only heard of her thoughts and interactions with Rukkhadevata but that's about it And if the next weekly boss really was Apep who was more related to Deshret than Rukkha it would be interesting to see how Nahida would be involved with Desert stuff

This was a much needed distraction, along with Zhongli's pretty face. Thank you

A thought been brewing for long time. The chance Apep killed Nabu in order get at and manipulate Deshret out of spite or revenge(who knows). Since Deshret has themes of Ra, Horus, Solomon, and Osiris. Oh fun detail on Eternal Oasis, Deshret might have had help from Istaroth to make the Oasis. ❤

I love your videos! And the artifact series is super nice to chill and listen to with a tea or something😂 it’s still up for interpretation so it was interesting to hear yours, but I’ve always thought that when GoF warned Deshret that he is fated to lose much by learning forbidden knowledge- that she suggested she will die - and still he chose to continue anyway. while it doesn’t align with his love for her, it’s possible he truly believed he could bring her back, perhaps like how in the book “Vera’s Melancholy”, “the future saves the past”… but that’s enough of my crazy deshret theories😂 Thanks again for putting so much effort into these videos- I really like them!

I really enjoy your lore videos. The script is always well written and entertaining. You deserve so much more subs!

the death of goddess of flower is still a mystery(but for me possible she still alive just for a seelie husk form just like what happened to guoba, rukka, paimon(sus) and other gods that turn to small form). I'm waiting for patch 3.6 livestream tomorrow(philippines time 8pm) and what would be a next lore/story of it

Hello! Your lore videos are so good! As a beginner to all the lore stuff in genshin, you explanations are simple, to-the-point and help me understand the story in minues! Genshin got me hooked on lore after the Inzauma and Enkanomiya, as well as chasm quests--and boy, has it got me attached. You earned a new sub :D! Please also take care to take some breaks for yourself! Just really wanted to appericiate one of my favorite content creators :]

I clicked on the notification the moment I saw it. These lore videos are top quality and I love them. You've done great work on them :D

Just recently found your channel and have been binge watching most of your videos so thx for the amazing content!

I love your videos because they're very patient and calm!

Would you by any chance be willing to weigh in your own thoughts on the "Is celestia evil?" Debate in the future? Recently I watch a video which paint king deshret' rebellion along with others forsaken civilizations of the past as heroes who stand up to a force of tyranny (i.e. celestia) who want bend all in tevyat according to their will and rules and what the fatui and tsaritsa is doing now is the latest and best attempt to break this so called tyranny so it's best that we support it Sounds all well and good but for some reason it just doesn't sit well with me, I feel like the way the overall story has progressed to view things in such a plain way isn't the right thing to do. Something more complex is possibly at work here and blame for what had happened in the past is more equally spread than we might think.

i'm sure that the 3.6 update will contain more lore about them because there is a lot of unfinished facts

King deshret is..."him"

rukkhadevata is such a champ

Do you ever plan on having other characters that relate to the topic in the video, or only Zhongli?

I still think that Cyno, Nilou, and Candace are somehow reincarnations of King Deshret, The Goddess of Flowers, and Rukkhadevata.
