2) Columbina appears as the Statue of the Seven in Nod-Krai

The Statues of the Seven in Nod-Krai all across the regions are shaped like Columbina, the Damselette who is also dubbed the "Moon Maiden." The statue in Paha Isle is encased in steel, possibly indicating the Fatui are using it for energy extraction or sealing purposes.

This steel casing might also serve to limit public access for the people of Nod-Krai, suggesting the statue is no longer a symbol of reverence but of control. The Fatui may have altered the statue’s function entirely to serve their plans in the region.

3) The Abyss seems active with a purpose in Nod-Krai

There are strong hints that the Abyss Order has a growing influence in Nod-Krai. The Wild Hunt faction might be behind this activity. Their goal and reasons remain unclear, but something is being planned by them, which will be revealed in the upcoming version 6.x of Genshin Impact.

Given their history, the Abyss could be aiming to corrupt the region’s ley lines or unseal ancient powers buried beneath Nod-Krai. This might eventually lead to a large-scale conflict involving both the Fatui and the Traveler’s party.

4) The Adventurers' Guild icon in Nasha Town resembles Khaenri’ah’s

The Adventurers' Guild icon in Nod-Krai strongly resembles the 8-pointed star used by Khaenri’ah. The icon of the guild has always been portrayed as an 8-pointed star, but this one in Nod-Krai specifically stands out with its unique design and similarities to Khaenri'ah's star.

This symbol is also known as the Star of Ishtar, representing the ancient Mesopotamian goddess Ishtar and her Sumerian counterpart, Inanna. This guild in Genshin Impact still stands as one of the most mysterious factions in Teyvat.

5) The Nameless Ruler is Nibelung

At the end of the event, a message appears referring to the “Nameless Ruler” who raised the three moons in ancient times of Teyvat. This ruler is referencing the Dragon King, Nibelung, as per the history of Teyvat in Genshin Impact. This sets up Nod-Krai as a place shaped by the forgotten history of Teyvat and the purpose of the three moons.

It hints that the region may hold secrets tied to Celestia’s history and the origins of divine power. With Nibelung now appearing in the main storyline of Genshin Impact, future updates may explore his legacy and how it connects to the moons and the fate of the world.

Nod-Krai is shaping up to be one of Genshin Impact’s most pivotal regions. With the long-buried history of Teyvat gradually surfacing through the Archon Quests, this new chapter promises revelations that could redefine the narrative. As the journey unfolds, players can expect Nod-Krai to become a turning point in the game's evolving lore.
