Lore
The Inverted City is the remains of Lang-Gan, a city that was governed by Zibai during the era of Teyvat's unified civilization. The city was corrupted by the Abyss following the war of funerary flame, and subsequently destroyed by the impact of a Celestial Nail sent to purify the corruption.[1][2]
Within the city is an upside-down pool, which weakens the effect of Dainsleif's curse when he is nearby. Dainsleif believes that the pool is also a relic of the more ancient civilization and is part of the city's structure.[3] Upon visiting ??? in Fontaine, the player can look through a crack in a wall to see the upside-down pool, though the altar below it is missing.
