Genshin Impact Origins
At the beginning of her journey through Teyvat, Lumine arrives in Mondstadt with Paimon, guided by the wind and the hope of finding her lost sibling. What begins as a first simple encounter with the City of Freedom soon draws her into events far greater than expected events that test trust, loyalty, and the meaning of choice.
Along the way, Lumine meets Noxira, a girl burdened by fractured memories and a presence that subtly unsettles the world around her. Though quiet and uncertain, Noxira's existence seems tied to forces older and deeper than Mondstadt or Teyvat itself. As she travels beside Lumine and Paimon, fragments of her past surface through strange reactions, echoes of voices, and moments where the elements hesitate around her.
While the traveler faces an unseen threat and familiar figures move in the shadows, bonds slowly form between companions who do not yet fully understand one another. Some seek answers. Some seek redemption. And some are driven by loss that has long since turned into resolve.
This story follows Lumine's early journey through Mondstadt, weaving canon events with original elements, while exploring themes of memory, identity, grief, and chosen family. Not all wounds are visible, not all enemies are obvious and not every mystery is meant to be solved at once.
Sometimes, the wind does not guide forward.
Sometimes, it pauses as if waiting.
