IX THE HERMIT CHONGYUN upright contemplation search for truth inner guidance reverse loneliness isolation lost your way With all the secret arts that I have learned my goal of banishing all evil from the world is finally in view I will never forget how much you have done for me Maybe now I even have what it takes to face the flames of my positive energy and see if I can take the heat Chongyun is something of an oddity within his exorcist family due to the excess of yang energy he possesses he has never been able to encounter a single evil spirit This had led him to worry and contemplate on what it means to be an exorcist and how he should conduct himself through all of it The Hermit centers around introspection and reflection in order to attain a deeper understanding of oneself Its arrival signals that perhaps it s time to take a moment for yourself and clear your mind of the anxieties that have accumulated with time With all of that out of the way you may gain new insight into the path you truly want to take in life Illustrated by linvaniin twitter linvaniin In reverse the Hermit usually indicates its more literal meaning to seclude oneself away from others Long periods of keeping to oneself can lead to overthinking and paranoia possibly culminating in feelings of being trapped and alone without anyone to help Find a balance between introspection and social connection

XI JUSTICE XINGQIU upright cause and effect clarity truth reverse dishonesty unaccountability unfairness There is a cause that I seek to champion yet few in Liyue share my aspiration This I have known for a long time for it is a path I have walked for many years Xingqiu is both the second son of a highly influential merchant and a young genius of the Guhua Clan s sword arts Unbeknownst to Liyue s high society though he hides a mischievous and daring spirit fighting to uphold justice where others in his position might rest on their laurels The Justice arcana is fairly straightforward it stands for truth lawfulness and fairness It may appear at a time where you need to put your foot down and stand up for what is right or serve as a sign that past decisions are about to catch up to you It may also instead be a sign that justice will prevail when you feel that you have been wronged In reverse the Justice arcana is a warning of the denial of justice Be it from past actions or attempts to run away from feelings of guilt without fixing your mistakes it signals that it is time to face your reality and hold yourself accountable Illustrated by shohje twitter shohje

XIV TEMPERANCE MONA upright middle path patience finding meaning reverse extremes excess lack of balance Divination is about precisely foretelling one s written destiny Over embellishing that fate only leads to misconception The astrologer Mona Megistus performs her divinations through the still reflections of water Her attitude towards readings revolve around absolute balance and impartiality and she never makes any attempts to veil the truths that she sees The Temperance arcana centers on the core values of balance and harmony as represented by Mona s hands held out like scales Any extremes should be avoided if you meet this card during a reading and you may want to consider patience a virtue to be put into practice In reverse Temperance points towards the presence of discord and imbalance perhaps reflecting rash spending habits or a lack of longterm foresight Some short bursts of happiness may not be worth the emotional or financial burden they place on you in the long term Illustrated by PAI twitter PAI

XVII THE STAR BARBARA upright hope faith rejuvenation reverse faithlessness discouragement insecurity Tada giggles Barbara is here Leave the healing to me I will not disappoint you Barbara is a deaconess of the Church of Favonius but she may be better known as the Shining Idol of Mondstadt Her aim in life is to bring joy and hope to people but she sometimes falls into self doubt wondering if she is truly making any difference The Star arcana is a beacon in the darkness lighting a path through the universe It stands for hope faith healing and blessings of the world a positively wonderful card to meet in a reading On a deeper level it can be a sign that this is a moment for great personal growth and that your faith will be greatly rewarded In reverse the Star speaks to a sense of despair and hopelessness Often it signifies that you may be going through a test of your faith or being too harsh on yourself and can be seen as advice to hold fast to the belief that things will get better that at the end of a rainstorm comes a rainbow Illustrated by Toorurii twitter Toorurii

GIANT HYDRO SLIME If you could get one of these to stay still it would make a very comfortable water bed Still not safe for human consumption GIANT CRYO SLIME These large slimes form a protective shell of ice around themselves which can be chipped away by using heavy weapons or melted down with Pyro Now if only we had a claymore using Pyro Vision having vigilante of the night handy SMALL HYDRO SLIME SMALL CRYO SLIME Do not use as emergency food Do not use as emergency food Do not use as emergency food Important things have to be said thrice Hydro slimes are not composed of plain water but the Hydro element in such concentrated doses they are lethal to most living things if consumed ARTIST CHRISQI Usually found chillin near rivers and lakes If you push one along the surface of a lake you too can have the powers of the Cavalry Captain of Mondstadt Well his ice bridge making abilities at least ARTIST CHRISQI

GIANT DENDRO SLIME Battle music intensifies GIANT PYRO SLIME Wow can we use it to go fish blasting Klee probably In reality Pyro slimes lose their explosive capabilities when thrown into water making this an effective way of dealing with them safely SMALL PYRO SLIME SMALL DENDRO SLIME In the event of being set on fire stop drop and roll Preferably very far away as these guys will chase you for quite a while Rumor has it that Yoimiya has been trying to make a new kind of firework with Pyro Slimes as a major component ARTIST CHRISQI It s a beautiful day in Liyue and you re a traveler looking for your lost sibli Why is battle music playing ARTIST CHRISQI

Page 30

GIANT ELECTRO SLIME Albedo once considered making use of these monsters as an energy source but the idea was immediately shot down by Acting Grandmaster Jean Not because of any arguments on slime sentience or ethics mind you but because where Albedo goes Klee follows and Klee being within a five mile radius of anything even moderately dangerous is a surefire recipe for disaster GIANT GEO SLIME For some reason its armor is weak to the element that it is made of Ningguang will absolutely never reveal whether one of her hobbies is breaking and collecting pieces of their armor to look for interesting crystal formations SMALL GEO SLIME SMALL ELECTRO SLIME Generally serene like their Archon Will still try to attack you if you get too close Noelle once moved one aside with a single hand while harvesting sweet flowers and Amber tried to do the same The latter soon found out that one Geo Slime weighs about as much as a fully loaded cart Only a little less electrifying than love at first sight Try to keep them away from grouping up or you ll get something significantly more electrifying ARTIST TONE ARTIST TONE

Page 31

GIANT ANEMO SLIME If you strike it hard enough it turns into a burst of wind Perfect for harvesting dandelions reaching Anemoculi that are floating just out of reach or knocking away a Deaconess s overly clingy fans SMALL ANEMO SLIME You ll look strong if you use it as a volleyball However please be aware that Teyvat Ltd is not liable for any sudden bursts of wind that may blow sand into your companions eyes leading to a chain reaction of Vision holders panicking and causing a state emergency VISHAP HATCHLING Not particularly dangerous but extremely irritating to deal with Zhongli once handled one with the exact energy of a battle hardened parent waiting out a small child s tantrum sitting behind a shield and drinking tea as the Vishap zipped and thrashed about until it crashed into said shield and knocked itself out ARTIST TONE ARTIST GARDENSVEIL

Page 32

HILICHURL GUARD If you look closely enough you might realize that some of their shields are in fact pot lids One man s trash is a hilichurl s treasure HILICHURL GRENADIER HILICHURL BERSERKER Despite their low physical strength these monsters are clever enough to make use of slimes as rudimentary explosives They have enough strength to knock a person off their feet so it is prudent to stay cautious These monsters often run straight at their targets swinging a blazing stick manically at anything in their path However Razor s glare will usually send them running back in the opposite direction at once HILICHURL GANG These monsters usually attack any humans on sight but there are groups with calmer dispositions that are open to peaceful communication and even gift giving However they do take insults quite seriously so be ready to run if Ella Musk got her translations wrong ARTIST RMMADEDIS ARTIST RMMADEDIS

Page 33

ELECTRO HILICHURL SHOOTER The Electro energy infused into their arrows isn t particularly dangerous alone but they often show up together with Pyro Hilichurl Shooters Many a Traveler can attest to the sheer frustration of repeated Overloaded reactions knocking them off their feet four or five times in a row PYRO HILICHURL SHOOTER Due to their repeated handling of Pyro energies these Hilichurls are often also the designated cooks in their tribes as they have what humans cooks would call asbestos hands CRYO HILICHURL SHOOTER Wounds caused by arrows from a Cryo Hilichurl Shooter bleed less but are also slower to heal due to the slowing of the target s metabolism This can be dangerous to more inexperienced adventurers who might shrug off the initial injury ARTIST RMMADEDIS ARTIST RMMADEDIS

Page 34

ANEMO SAMACHURL In combination with its other element wielding brethren the tornadoes summoned by this Hilichurl can cause very sudden and widespread destruction It s a good thing then that they tend to stay on floating platforms in the middle of the ocean far from anything else GEO SAMACHURL One of these decided that it was a good idea to taunt Diona up on top of one of their Geo constructs In response the young bartender hurtled a cold brew drink right into its face causing it to topple off its perch rather ungracefully and right into arm s reach of one highly aggravated feline DENDRO SAMACHURL It may seem counterintuitive for these Dendro summoning shamans to keep the company of Pyro Hilichurl Shooters but get surrounded by walls of flaming vines once and you ll understand why they do that ARTIST FLUTTI ARTIST FLUTTI

Page 35

STONEHIDE LAWACHURL The strongest and usually oldest of its tribe Lawachurls are battle hardened Hilichurls who often seek solitude away from the prying eyes of their younger clansfolk After many years a hard carapace made from absorbing Geo energies grows on its body making it even stronger than before BLAZING AXE MITACHURL Making use of the properties of Pyro Slimes these Mitachurls imbue their weapons with the ability to cause fiery blasts around the point of impact FROSTARM LAWACHURL SHIELD BEARER MITACHURL STONE SHIELD Even more aggressive than its Geo counterpart The Frostarm Lawachurl will charge headfirst at foes to crush them underfoot Interestingly records have been found of a Lawachurl named Ukko who served as a beloved companion or pet of some kind to a princess from a long forgotten nation These Mitachurls fight with a style centered around their shields This is because they are status symbols used only by hilichurls who have survived for long a long time enough to grow into a big and strong fighter capable of using the hulking mass of stone as a weapon ARTIST FLUTTI ARTIST FLUTTI

PYRO ABYSS MAGE CRYO ABYSS MAGE For some reason these monsters are often found carrying ancient flowers around Could they be searching for something or somewhere These mages have to be dealt with quickly otherwise they start a series of Pyro eruptions from the ground that become difficult to dodge when several Hilichurls or Fatui Agents are also after you One safe tactic discovered by Reconnaissance Captain Eula is to swim out into deep water oftentimes the Pyro Abyss Mage will teleport after you falling into the water and fainting in the process HYDRO ABYSS MAGE Gan gan woo ARTIST CHRISQI ARTIST CHRISQI

EYE OF THE STORM That s not fair It is not a question of fairness Barbatos Certain elements or weapons are simply not effective in certain situations Big words for someone who throws rocks at their problems It is a floating entity The first course of action would of course be attempting to knock it out of the air a conversation between Morax and Barbatos which shortly preceded the invention of the bow and arrow Allegedly UNUSUAL HILICHURL Often found looking across the horizon or taking a nap in all sorts of strange locations Then again if you went straight from doing a degree in engineering to running a multimillion dollar company wouldn t you also be perpetually short on sleep ARTIST GARDENSVEIL ARTIST TONE

Page 38

ANEMO HYPOSTASES A mighty force of nature thought to be an amalgamation of the world s memories and energies at clogged ley lines concentrated into a single destructive entity It is capable of generating multiple tornadoes flinging Mitachurls around like ragdolls and even resisting some attacks from the Anemo Archon himself A young lady has successfully replicated it in a laboratory flask She now uses them to advance her research on sweet flowers GEO HYPOSTASES You would imagine that tucking oneself away into a corner of an island far from the mainland and being surrounded by countless monsters would dissuade adventurers from hunting you down Alas Ningguang needs topaz gemstones and there are no Travelers capable of refusing her ARTIST TONE ELECTRO HYPOSTASES A core crackling with Electro energy surrounded by an impenetrable outer shell Every time Bennett recklessly goes off to hfight it alone an accidental explosion or two somehow always gets the job done Don t ask him how he doesn t know either ARTIST TONE

PYRO REGISVINE CRYO REGISVINE Thought to be an ancient Pyro Whopperflower the Regisvine possesses an astonishing volume of elemental energy likely absorbed over long periods of time from its prey and environment This monster is capable of flash freezing living creatures into a state of stasis overcoming the passage of time and the natural laws of decay Amber regularly harvests ice crystals off it in the summer as Lisa enjoys iced tea during that season PYRO WHOPPERFLOWER Capable of launching over a dozen fireballs in rapid succession Pyro Whopperflowers are regarded as one of the greatest dangers to common folk due to both their destructive potential as well as their camouflage abilities Many adventurers or traveling merchants carry around a small Hydro Slime not for drinking please see the entry on Hydro Slimes In the event that they encounter a Pyro Whopperflower they throw the Slime at it as hard as they can to stun it and then beat a hasty retreat ARTIST GARDENSVEIL CRYO WHOPPERFLOWER These monsters were once feared across the land but after the discovery that their nectar could keep desserts and drinks cool adventurers started hunting them down It is thought that the cooling syrup is the reason for the explosive popularity of Fantastic Summer Serendipity Coral Sparkling Tea in Mondstadt ARTIST GARDENSVEIL

GEOCHANTER ANEMOBOXER ou would be correct in thinking that Geo shields are usually resistant against Pyro attacks and this is what a certain Geochanter once thought as well However he proved no match for the strongest person in Mondstadt and her treasures Their massive build is offset by ingenious Anemo based technologies allowing them to float like a tiny wind sprite sting like a cicin ELECTRO HAMMER Once upon a time a little zombie girl was out gathering herbs for the pharmacy that she worked at An Electro Hammer spotted the Vision pinned to her hat and thinking she would be easy pickings attempted to take it from her He quickly found out why all the Treasure Hoarders in Liyue knew not to disturb Qiqi ARTIST FUSPANDAH ARTIST FUSPANDAH

CRYOGUNNER Often posted to cold or rainy regions such as Dragonspine and Inazuma This is an arrangement that neither side likes Travelers stress over how to not get turned into a popsicle while the Cryogunners have to spend every evening chipping bricks of ice out of their weapons PYROSLINGER Only the best of the best marksmen in the Fatui ranks get to become Pyroslingers That being said they are curiously avoidant of lowering their aim Kaedehara Kazuha is unsure of how to feel about discovering that he s considered short through this fashion HYDROGUNNER The medic of a Fatui Agent field unit They heal their comrades using superior Snezhnayan Hydro technology Some have discovered a method of providing moral support with their gear being a huge hit at pool parties ARTIST FUSPANDAH ARTIST FUSPANDAH
