He event explains that morally grey nature of the world. Childe lives for battle and proving his strength. Both he and Shiki Taishou are in a similar situation. What’s especially interesting here is the awareness Childe displays. Which means a more jovial and, dare I say, friendly experience. But once someone starts the Genshin Impact Labyrinth Warriors quest, we’re on equal footing and apparently have goals that align. Now we see him at a point where we’ve had some time to let things settle. When he appeared during the Liyue Archon Quests and his story quests, well, things weren’t always straightforward! Granted, there’s always an element of mystery surrounding him. Meanwhile, the new interactions with Childe give us a chance to see a different side of him than we have in Genshin Impact. She expresses an incredible amount of insight and understanding when talking with people. But her interactions with Sara, Childe, and Shiki Taishou further define her and make her more memorable. She constantly is friendly with the player for obvious reasons. She even expresses concern over him when he remains trapped in the domain after her and the traveler get out. When she meets Childe, she quickly takes to him too. Which also means occasionally defending him and standing by him when he seems uncertain. Based on his response, her judgment leads her to trust him. When she meets Shiki Taishou, she plays her music to determine her intention. But, and it’s important to note, she doesn’t ask for additional payment or help. When an opportunity to help arises, she offers in exchange for a permit. She’s heading to the Tenryou Commission to deal with a travel permit issue after an event ended up canceled. Xinyan comes across as someone who not only wants to do the right thing, but to be a good friend. She always seemed passionate and dedicated to her music. With her introduction, we see how Inazuma is reacting to outsiders finally visiting with the region opening up again. Even then, she only offered additional insight for Xiangling.

Honestly, Xinyan didn’t show up until the Moonlight Merriment event after the Genshin Impact 2.1 update. Other characters’ voiced lines that discuss her make her sound great! But she didn’t feature at all in the Liyue Archon Quests. Xinyan, well, is someone who’s been overlooked! She’s a great character with an amazing design. Both Xinyan and Childe continually feature prominently in this Genshin Impact event. It becomes about more than just accruing enough Aged Tokens to get a Crown of Insight, Primogems, and other rewards from the Event Shop. But the event keeps adding additional quests. After all, going into the Mystic Onmyou Chamber to aid the Shiki Taishou shikigami and halt the escaping monsters for its Abyss-like floors would be excuse enough. After that, perhaps you’re left to your own devices. The initial mission sends you in the right direction. Familiar characters alert you to what’s going on.

The same goes for the entirety of the Genshin Impact Labyrinth Warriors run, and its story offers an opportunity to see Xinyan and Childe in a new light.Īs the Labyrinth Warriors questline kicks off, it almost seems like it could begin like many other Genshin Impact brief event quests. A brief quest might occur to kick it off, like what happened with the Floral Zither. When it comes to events in Genshin Impact, there’s sometimes an underlying motivation for them.
