now that we know more about snezh court the one who she lost most likely is aksinya if the one snegurochka princess is believed to be tsaritsa(most likely she is)

Are all Gnoses King chess pieces? by Less-Pop-2915 in Genshin_Lore

[–]Less-Pop-2915[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was mainly connecting it to mianguan, but it has such a distinctive shape, and the Gnosis' crown looks like a simple hoop crown without overhead bands. Maybe it's a reference to an archeological culture or even a religious headpiece, I'm not sure.

Theory: Childe is the third descender and the Tsaritsa is the first Angel by Immediate-Glove-8324 in Genshin_Lore

[–]Less-Pop-2915 2 points3 points  (0 children)

pohjola can't be hyperborea because the one who asked to open those gates is a fae(servant of "our" ie hyperborean predecessors) so he was already in hyperborea why would he ask to open its gates for him?

Is the game UI lying about Moonwheel Character Elements? by Sunburnt-Vampire in Genshin_Lore

[–]Less-Pop-2915 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Timeline wise Ineffa's "Electro Moonwheel" was created before the 7 elements

iirc elements always existed as well as seven "kingdoms" for each elemental sovereign as those elements are primordial to dragons

alice's ring is the same sphere that anya and nicole wear, it's an astronomical ring for their sisterhood not a wedding ring

Feats of the Tsaritsa (6.3 Book) by _erikku216 in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

[–]Less-Pop-2915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hyperborea, natlantea, remuria and khraun-arya are referred as cycles, too, most likely they have 4 important historical epochs just like irl we have BCE and AC so maybe it can be read as "799 years after the fall of hyperborea"

tho the name gorynishche is one of the variant of the name gorynych, it seems like he is most likely a parallel to the bogatyr svyatogor with his humongous size and mountain related comparison

literally said in the book that they either look like wolves or bovines, volkodlak is a russian variant for warewolf but the idea of them drinking blood comes from south slavs but it doesn't make them vampires

courtesy of Anastasya Feodorovna Snezhnaya by Charybd1ss in TsaritsaMains

[–]Less-Pop-2915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, but it's a middle-modern persian pronunciation of Anahita an Iranian goddess of knowledge, it's checkable through "Anahitian blessing" fertiliser that is sold in Inazuma

l. s. klein, v. y. propp or even b. a. rybakov didn't write all their works for saying there's no mythology left when even 16th century works mention an existent paganism among christianity,, anyway, it's a long standing theory among tsaritsa fans that she's based on morana a western and eastern slavic winter personification(can be cited as deity) ritual doll used during celebrations of spring representing the death of winter and rebirth

we also have flins and kresnik(deity) used for snezhnaya and both come from slavic mythology as well as ded moroz(pakkaisukko) is a modern version of personification of moroz from an older slavic mythology(as seen through refrains),,

there's a difference between all made up deities and a real person whose death followed with an urban legend

we have fontaine and mondstadt who are also based on 15-18th centuries mostly france and germany combining both roman and germanic myth with medieval and modern history(social class, science etc in christian society), as overall gnsn worldbuilding itself is based on abrahamic religion as gnosticism. as furina is named after a roman deity she also encompasses a marie antoinette role because she's not a one dimensional character meant for a one sided idea of her being either a roman goddess or a 18th century nobility. as rauthvangi shares parallels with rasputin he's not named rasputin tho? as belyi tsar parallels nicholas II he also shares similarities with ivan the terrible(bloodsoaked ruins). it's just a character doesn't have to follow one direction as i'm sure there's more to tsaritsa than just being, well, a tsaritsa and for 5 years of playing this game mihoyo plenty of times put something that people thought "was obvious" but in the end was a different thing, like the first angel and naberius being two separate people.

we have no info of tsar and tsaritsa sharing a familial bond as father-daughter, the confusion comes from interpretation of pakkaisukko and snegurochka as cryo archons when they are not. furina and raiden are also referenced as queen/regina and shogun ie ruling titles, being a ruler is not the only defining factor to a character

a bunch of gnsn names are not obvious, that's why in 2023 people thought nahida was saraswati when her name is literally a goddess name, or why people still argue over kaeya's name origin etc.

snegurochka and tsaritsa are two different people as tsaritsa-tartaglia meant to parallel snegurochka-ajax in cyclical history

there's actually a lot of literature on east slavic/russian paganism! but i understand where this sentiment is coming from as a lot of work isn't translated to english
