ăćźźćž OF THE â©ïžđŠ·đ° NARUKAMI SHRINE
Denki the pokemon trainer!
I always imagined kaminari as a pikachu, and finally put pen to paper! He's in ash's sinnoh fit, when I saw that liko had ash's original pin except as a pin and not on a hat, it kinda reminded me of the spider mask and how each spider had their own take on it, so I tried that with the green arrow. As for the pikachu, inazuma, she has no tail cause she wasn't born with one (totally not cause I couldn't draw it)

This! As a person, obsession with mythology and religion playing genshin is like a minimalized version of becoming an archaeologist, which was my dream when I was little.
Everything is amazingly complex and scattered like some of the most amazing stories in real life.
I love genshin, even though the representation could be better, the lore is fascinating and so immersing
ok, so no one talks about it, but i truly adore how genshin presents its in-game lore as real life mythology and history is! you discover tevyat's history, culture, mythology by actually going through scattered texts you find while exploring, or reading descriptions of items you find, or in namecards, and even in tcg card descriptions! and a lot of these sources aren't fully reliable, are hard to make sense of, and are given to you in absolutely no chronological order.
EXACTLY LIKE REAL LIFE MYTHOLOGY. most cultures' mythologies are passed down orally until one wise person decides to actually write it down! and those become our only sources of insight into those myths and ancient stories. norse mythology, for example, has only like two viable texts and those were written after roman christians took control over the area. like the sources are scattered and one tale has many interpretations and endings. you have to become an actual scholar to decipher all of it.
and the fact, the mere fact, that genshin has been able to mirror this in a game is absolutely insane to me.
like, oh, you wanna learn about nabu malikata, the goddess of flowers? here are your sources: an artifact set, a weapon description, a npc dialogue, a world quest, the description of a flower (padisarahs). and all of these are scattered throughout the world of tevyat.
you have to work, like a damn archeologist, to figure what the fuck is tevyat truly and understand its history.
like god, i have never played a more lore-rich game. from old mondstadt, to the hexenzirkel, to dragonspine and durin, to the yakshas and adepti, to baal and beelzebul, to watatsumi and enkanomiya, to the chasm's civilisation, to khaenriah, to elynas, to remuria and remus, to apep and nibelung, to deshret and nabu malikata, to the combined civilisation before the second descender.
it is SO fleshed out. and i haven't even mentioned like 40% of wtf is going on in tevyat.
anyway, this was my love letter to genshin lore!
A/N: This is an idea that suddenly popped out of my mind so I decided to write it. The reader is gender-neutral and this is a fluff. Enjoy reading and have a nice day!
Oh and there are some curse words cause it's Scara.

Being a harbinger is something you canât be fully proud of. At least, thatâs how you feel upon staring at the badge the Tsaritsa gave you. But you donât really have a choice, you canât just pass an opportunity of making your life a bit easier. Even if you try to deny the offer, your head would be a target for the Fatui. Surviving in the cold weather of Snezhnaya is already a pain in the back, you donât want to make it worse.
Your job as a harbinger is really simple. You seldom cut someoneâs throat as youâre more often assigned in âgathering information from the insideâ type of missions. When it comes to highly secured territories, youâre the one to take the lead. You donât need assistance or anything as you mostly take the act you also planned and set it in motion. Maybe itâs from the experience of once working in front of many people, wearing a mask to suit everyoneâs taste, pursuing them to trust you.
As the Tsaritsa told you, youâre competent. A people pleaser like you can read people so easily that one look can immediately give you an inference on the personality you will need to portray on your target. When it comes to finishing someone, you do it quickly. As soon as you got their trust, it was also the time to sing them a lullaby to their own doom.
A sigh escaped your lips, being a harbinger sets you in the boundary of everything. It always felt like youâre in between of opposing arguments. Itâs thrilling but also confusing, maybe itâs just your morals kicking you in the guts but itâs too late for that. The moment you bow down in front of the Tsaritsaâs throne, it was all gone.
âI never knew a deaf could be a harbinger.â
Your eyes shifted from your badge to the source of the voice. The sixth harbinger, casually hanging out in your officeâs couch. He must have entered your office while youâre busy paying attention on your thoughts.
âDo you have any idea how many times I knocked on your door? I wouldâve thought youâve been killed in your office if I didnât know you any better,â he continued.
âIâm thinking about important stuff, I didnât notice.â
He scoffed. âYou didnât even bother to apologize, how rude.â
You blinked at him, staring to his eyes. Scaramouche, or also known as Balladeer has been the one to always barge into your office like it was his own for the first months. The first time you met him was just like this, except the fact that youâre working on paper documents that time and he didnât knocked, he just barged in. You remember how he didnât ask your name and where you from, just straight up gave the file the Tsaritsa wanted to give to you, informing you with a bunch of small insults here and there before leaving and slamming the door.
Your first thought was maybe he didnât like you or your impression, not that it matters anyway. Until you found out that he also does that to other harbingers, especially when heâs having too much to work with in his plate.
âYou know, no matter how long you looked at that badge, it wonât disappear.â
You look at the balladeer with his statement. He stood up, slowly walking towards your table as he crossed his arms. âIâve been wanting to ask you this since itâs disturbing my thoughts, are you reallyâŠchickening out? After being here for so long, thatâs quite disappointing.â
You let out a scoff at his question, your eyes narrowing at his glinted eyes. You know how Scaramouche is, the way he works with his words to initiate tension. You wonât fall for it but still you wanted to admit how well he can cause tension and get away from it.
âYouâre askingâŠme? What happened to your âgood intuitionâ, the sixth harbinger?â You retorted, raising an eyebrow.
He chuckled. âThatâs more like you. I just hate how you always look at your stupid badge every time I see you, it irks me.â
âThatâs more like your problem, not mine.â
âI hate it still, so I will need an explanation.â
âWow, is this manipulation 101?â
âY/n.â He sternly called your name, his eyes softening a bit. âI wanted to know if something is bugging your mind, Iâll help if I can.â
You remained silent as a sigh escaped your lips. You reached for the file youâre supposed to read a while ago if only you didnât space out. âIt was nine days ago..â
He hummed urging you to continue. He sat down on the chair opposite to yours, waiting for your next words.
âWhen I learned something about a certain topic, itâsâŠquite bizarre.â
You looked at him seriously, his indigo orbs meeting yours. You can see how his trying to listenâŠhow his patience is slowly thinning out on your slow words and his own pretention.
A smile formed your lips. âGaslighting. Oh, what a bizarre topic and thing to do, right Scaramouche?â
You dramatically placed your hand on your chest as you gave him a look of pity. He clicked his tongue before standing up, fixing his hat in the process.
âFuck you and your stupid badge.â
You laughed. His visible frustration is entertaining, especially when he cussed. Something about his cussing words just hits deeply, you canât help but laugh.
âI waste my time for this stupid shit. I shouldâve known.â
As he took a step away from table, you quickly stood up, reaching for his hand to stop him. He looked back at you with an annoyed expression. He was about to slap your hands off him but he stopped as soon as he heard you talk.
âWait, alright. Iâm sorry. I mean, Iâm not half wrong but..I get the glimpse of what youâre trying to do. Just sit down. I promise, no more jokes.â
It took a couple of seconds before he spoke up. âNo more fucking jokes.â
You nodded. He let out a sigh before he propped down on the chair again. You sat again too as you compose yourself.
âWhat the fuck is your problem?â
You bit the insides from your cheek to prevent yourself from chuckling. Thatâs more like him, you thought.
âThis badge isnât mine, dumbass.â
He raised his eyebrows. âIs it from an agent? A traitor perhaps? Just say the word and Iâll finish them off-â
âNo need for violence, it was from a harbinger.â
His eyes widened a bit. âDid youâŠkilled a harbinger? Y/n, thatâs not how you raise your rank. Youâre a trai-â
âI didnât kill someone, why are you insisting that?â
He shrugged, leaning on the chair as he hums. He must have been playing with you as a revenge from earlier. What a child.
âItâs from a harbinger thatâs been bugging me. Not in a bad way,â you cleared out before he can even decide to say a violent statement again.
âBugging you but not in a bad way? What the heck is that supposed to mean?â
You mentally facepalmed, of course he wouldnât know. He probably never felt that way for someone too. Now, youâre rethinking your decisions on telling him. Time for a more direct approach.
âI think I like someone.â
Silence.
You were replied by silence for almost a minute before a chuckled erupted from him. You shook your head as you listen to his laugh.
âYou like someone? And you stole their badge because you like them? What a creepy move, are you a stalker?â
You rolled your eyes before you stand up, holding the file on your arms. âYeah, yeah, whatever. Iâll need to submit this file before dinner time, bye.â
As you held the doorknob, you can still hear his laughter from your back. Maybe, youâll tell him some other time but, you promised yourself. You even practice on the mirror on what to say, itâs ridiculous. Your eyes landed on the badge. Every time you look at it, it reminds you of the glint in his eyes then youâll see your reflection, making you ask yourself on how did you get yourself into this.
âHey, Scara.â
You turned around, his laughed slowly stopped as he looked at you.
âRemember the camp last month?â
His eyebrows furrowed. âWhy are you asking me about such a horrible day.â
âChilde accidentally took your badge then replace it since you were pretty mad that day. It wonât be a good result if youâve known he touched some of your belongings.â
He blinked. âAnd you didnât tell me? That rascal, good thing he know what will happen.â
âI actually found it so here you go.â
You hummed, taking a last look on the badge before you throw it to him. He easily caught it with one hand, staring at it for a second. You saw how his eyes widen a bit before glancing at you again.
âThis badgeâŠis mine and what you said about it earlierâŠâ
Your throat felt dry the moment you meet each other eyes. You tried to smile, forcing yourself to formulate some words your mind came up with.
âYouâre making me feel complicated things, itâs unfitting for a harbinger.â
Did it
I have an idea for an Abyss Tanya story, but I want more time to think it through.
My apologies for anyone that voted, I forgot about graduation and moving when I set the poll, so I wasn't able to start writing the winning option until yesterday.

Sorry Diluc, Thoma is gonna be my main Pyro user for now. And OMG his hangout event. It's a shame that 5 star characters don't have hangout events and only have story quests. Maybe that'll change in the future.
Pay attention to the last photo..... Aww and especially his voice lines regarding us and oath.
