Archon Quest

OverviewGallery

The difficulty of enemies in Archon Quests as well as the level of trial characters (up to 90) is calculated based on current World Level.

Teyvat Storyline

We had no time to say goodbye, so let's not call it that.
—Traveler, Teyvat Chapter Storyline Preview^[1]

The war has already begun. It is just a continuation of past battles. The gods goad us on with the promise of their seven treasures. Rewards for the worthy. The doorway to divinity. Yet buried in the depths of this world lie smoldering remains, a warning to those that dare trespass. "That throne in the sky is not reserved for you." But mortal arrogation never stops. None will escape the flames. See for yourself.
