[ comes back to my genshin lore tags for a few more rounds and then sunday audiences now that i think i'm caught up ]
What sort of governments are you more familiar with..? [ bahamagama lore? but he taps the end of the spear on the glowing, golden eye before dissipating it again since he can't actually touch the weapon. ] That depends upon your aim, when you're in the midst of being fired upon by the machine. Would you like a demonstration of its weapon capabilities?
[ they're probably from earth. but he'll gesture at the ruin guard, and it goes through some fun motions for gamaliel. i had to convert these on ezgif to gifs because of webp i hate this file type why does it exist.
There's a sort of delay before they start... Distance attacks would probably be best, right? [ as they observe this. but also: ] Reminds me of a video game enemy.
Like the arcade..? [ sure why not, break the fourth wall gam. ]
- ah, yes to both. Archers and gunmen, along with those whose Visions can cast elemental attacks with greater range, often are better for taking down the automatons from Khaenri'ah due to how hard they hit but so that they might be easier to stun. They will continue to get up within a few seconds, if you're not prepared.
Unfortunate that it takes quite a few hits to their weak points to actually take them down permanently, but I believe they use them to track their targets.
[ at least a lot of this i ALREADY HAVE HANDY. he reaches back behind himself, unattaching the accessory that lays dormant on his jacket to show them. ]
Mine is a false Vision, so that I might blend in with the people of Teyvat without them questioning why I might manipulate Geo energy. But they're... elemental foci, in a way, bestowed upon a small number of Teyvat's population.
[ nodding. he's used to people understanding his terms but he'll circle around as he has so far. ]
Essentially. There are beings in Teyvat that are naturally attuned to the seven primary elements, such as adepti as myself, so being able to wield elemental energy without a Vision is a sign of otherness.
The elements are Anemo, wind; Geo, stone; Electro, lightning; Dendro, plantlife; Hydro, water; Pyro, fire; and Cryo, ice.
So you're attuned to stone. [ they sound interested but know that in their heart they keep going vimeo game ] And I guess it's bad to be seen as other in that way?

[ they nod along to the genshin lore that we continue to do to each other, and ask for More Lore: ]
That makes sense. It'd be stupid for their weak spot to be that weak. What's a Vision?

So it lets people do elemental magic, basically. But you can just do it naturally?
