SEASON SEVEN
Our team provides travelers with visual and video aids every episode to help them better understand comparisons, learn more about topics, and follow what we’re discussing. While we strive to include links to official Genshin Impact resources, some may also be to third-party channels.
Below are some resources surrounding this episode about Nod-Krai, Moon Prayer Night that may be helpful to understand the talking points and lore better:
Who wants some moon juice? Columbina shares her pure, primordial form of elemental energy – AKA Kuuvahki – to help the Traveler during her Nod-Krai adventures.
The phantoms we see have a distinct look that makes it clear that they are from the nation of Hyperborea that existed 6K years ago. They also wear a stupid hat that reminded Feens of the candy guy back in the Sabzeruz Festival in Sumeru.
We finally get to meet the actual Alice during this part of the Archon Quest. And she is just as fabulous as you’d expect. She even made her own intro board!
Alice isn’t the only member of the Hexenzirkel we get to meet in Nod-Krai. We also get to meet the mute Nicole, who has to talk to us through our minds. And is very annoyed that she also got Alice’s intro board.
If you’re invisible, why wouldn’t you poke your friends in the face? Columbina takes full advantage and pokes Sandrone in the cheek while she’s talking.
We walk through the drawings found in the moon-portal ruins. This is a common storytelling technique throughout Teyvat. You can hear Nicole explain the three drawings in this video.
The whole gang is happy to see Columbina come back to us, but no one as much as Lauma is. She grabs Columbina and pulls her in for a tight hug and almost smothers her with her boobs.
Columbina is able to enjoy all the fun of Moon Prayer Night thanks to some smart thinking from Lauma. She comes up with the idea to have everyone dress up as the Moon Goddess which makes Columbina blend right in.
Just as it seems like Columbina is on her way back to the moon, Dottore shows up to ruin the day. He quickly traps Columbina, freezes all the heroes minus Traveler, and harnesses the power of the tri-moons.
The one piece of luggage that Columbina packs for her trip is the sentimental card all her friends made by drawing portraits of themselves and each other. Unfortunately, it doesn’t make it to her unexpected destination.
Tif likened the tight fist of Traveler to a Franklin meme, but she was incorrect. The famous meme is actually of Arthur. She apologizes for getting her cartoon guys mixed up.
Here are some helpful links if you’re unfamiliar with the pop culture references we mentioned during the episode.
Tif mentioned The Neverending Story, Bee sang Celine Dion, Tif quoted OPP, Feens sang Free Fallin’, and also mentioned Steve’s fall.
