After finishing the main story of four regions in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Genshin Impact before reaching Fontaine, you might think that the game couldn't possibl🐽y surprise you anymore. However, this game is known for hitting it out of the ballpark when it comes to the main story, and Fontaine didn't disappoint in that regard.

Fontaine's story has a total 𓂃of five main acts, and each one of them is quite long. However, ꧅the revelations and cutscenes between them easily make them worth it. Here's everything you need to know about this region's story if you're looking for a quick recap.

The First Trial

After bidding farewell to your friends in Sumeru, you reach the shore of Fontaine where you overhear two people talking about a thrilling story. However, when you ask them about it, they mention that it's from a real case that was heard not long ago. Here, you already learn three important 👍thing📖s about Fontaine:

• The trials in Fontaine are treated like some sort of act, and even the court is named the Opera Epiclese, which means the Opera House. Their reasoning is that they don't want to waste the beautiful story behind these cases.
• After the trial ends, Chief Justice Neuvillette gives the final verdict, which is then confirmed by the Oratrice Mechanique d'Analyze Cardinale. The machine's verdict is final, but it has never given a decision opposing Neuvillette's before.
• Furina, the Hydro Archon, hardly takes part in the matters of Fontaine, but she's still quite busy since she's the most famous celebrity in the nation.

You then meet Lynette who is reminiscing about their childhood where they played on top of a hill, which is now submerged under water. Lyney also joins the gang and shakes hands with the Traveler while patting Paimon on the back. After that, he speaks about a pr🅺ophecy t💖hat has been circulating, but before he can tell us what it is, the main character appears on the scene.

Finding the Hydro Archon wasn't hard, but dealing with her will be. Furina appears at the scene and accuses the Traveler of breaking a Fontaine law since the citizens aren't allowed to release any flying objects, which is Paimon, du♑ring the first three days of the month. Furꦺina brings this up in hopes of having a duel with the Traveler at the court.

However, Lyney saves the day by flaunting his magic trick and revealing the thread that he connected Paimon and Traveler with back when he greeted them. This made Paimon some sort of a balloon and defeated Furina's ent♓ire allegation. She leaves the area after saying that she's looking forward to Lyney's performance.

Only then is Lyney able to tell you about the prophecy, which mentions that every person in Fontaine is born with sin. No amount of trials will take this sin away until one day, the water rises and destroys the Fontainians. This prop✃hecy had one important line that you have to remﷺember:

The people of Fontaine will all be d⛄issolved, and only the Hydro Archon will remain, weeping on her throne.

You also get to witness a thief trying to steal essential items from an NPC. Both Lyney and the Traveler go separate ways to find this thief, but the search comes out fruitless.

You then take an aquabus where you meet Charlotte, a journalist who tells you about a serial disappearance case that's currently the talk of the town. You also get to meet Freminet at Lyney's house when it starts raining. At this point, Freminet mentions that people believe it rains in Fontaine when the Hydro Dragon cries, and they repeat the following words to calm it down: "Hydro Dragon, Hydro Dragon, don't cry".

You also hear some talks about Lyney, Lynette, and Freminet's "Father" coming back to Fontaine.

Finally, you head over to a shop to deliver some materials where the shopkeeper mentions that the Oractrice harvests people's beliefs during a trial to create Indemnitium, which is used to power everything in Fontaine. You a𝓀lso get to meet Childe here, and he recounts some special incidents from his past.

He mentions that when he was young, he fell into the abyss and woke something up. There, he also met someone called Skirk, who trained him meticulously and told him that he'd need all this training in the future.🍒 It turns out that Childe's Vision has been acting up lately, and he wonders if it's related to the past and the giant whale.

Before you enter the Opera House to see Lyney's performance, you see a couple of people praying for a child near a fountain. When you get close to it, however, you hear someone saying "Vacher..." continuously. After that🀅, you head into the hall and get to meet the Chief Justice of Fontaine himself, Neuvillette.

Lyney's magic show then begins, and everything goes smoothly until the final trick. In this trick, he puts a girl in a box near the audience, and she's supposed to get teleported to the box on stage. However, at the end of this trick, the box gets smashed by a water tank above, and the victim inside it is changed to Cowell, one of Lyney's assistants.

Amidst the confusion, Neuvillette asks the Opera House to be sealed, and the investigation begins. Furina accuses Lyney of being the prime suspect in the case and the Traveler is assigned as his lawyer. ༺During the investigation, you meet with Spina Di Rosula's president Navia along with her two assistants, S🐻ilver and Meluse.

The personality of these two NPCs easily makes them one of the best NPCs in Genshin Impact.

The Traveler and Navia investigate the ins and outs of the case, but it all renders useless at the start of the trial as Furina reveals that Lyney wasn't in the box during the trick, and that both he and Lynette are members of the House of the Hearth, which is the Fatui. Lyney didn't menti♒on any of this to the Traveler before, so they get wary.

However, they still decided to listen to what he had to say, and Lyney mentioned that he used the time between the trick to investigate the core of the Oratrice. There, he heard someone talk to him, and he instantly we🗹nt back out. Even after all🍌 that, Traveler decides to fulfill their role as Lyney's attorney and break the case wide open:

• The true culprit behind the murder was none other than Cowell himself. He intentionally made it so a young lady from the crowd gets picked, but that lady was supposed to be from Fontaine.
• When the box descends during the trick, this lady was supposed to be submerged in Primordial Seawater and get dissolved. However, she was the same thief that we saw at the start and actually came from Mondstadt.
• This led to fighting between Lilliane, the girl, and Cowell. Lilliane came on top and shoved Cowell back into the box. At the end of the trick, Cowell had already tampered with the rope holding the water tank to remove the traces of Primordial Seawater.
• However, when the tank fell, he was the one in the box, and he became his own last victim. Lyney was investigating the Oratrice during this and didn't hear the thud created by the fight, and was declared innocent.

During the trial, there was a guard who brought some Primordial Seawater in his hand and said that it was found in Lyney's belongings. However, it was later revealed that he was Cowell's accomplice, and they were both working under the true culprit behind the serial disappearance of young women.

Before he can reveal the identity of his boss, he gets dissolved into water right in front of the entire court. You might have solved Lyney's case and saved him, but there's a much bigger mystery ahead. In the end, Lyney also reve൩als a heart-touching story that was the reason for them becoming a part of the House of t🍸he Hearth.

The Serial Disappearance Case, Explained

After winning your first case against the Hydro Archon herself, you head out to lunch with Navia where Paimon accidentally drinks her Fonta. You then set out to meet the Hydro Archon again, but the Traveler's🦄 sucked into a different domain near the same fountain and meets an Oceanid longi𓃲ng for someone named Vacher, that name again.

You realize that this Oceanid is one of the dissolved women, and she asks you to find Vacher and ask him to move on. She also suffers from memory loss, one of the effects of the Primordial Seawater mentioned by the guard in court. When you become cꦑonscious again, you see Navia and Clorinde fighting an army ꦍof Gardemeks.

After the battle, Navia tells you how Paimon was actually the reason she's still alive. The Fonta that Paimon drank contained Primordial Seawater.

It seems like the person behind the serial disappearance case is now after both Navia and the Traveler. It was also revealed that Navia's father is called Callas, also known as Callas the Unfaithful all across Fontaine. He was blamed for ༺murdering his own friend back in the day, and chose to go for a duel with a champion instead of a trial.

However, in this duel, he forcefully kept going until his death even though the result could be declared much before that. It was also revealed that Clorinde was the champion duelist who went against Callas, and ꦓhe also asked her to take care of Navia as his final wish. Navia investigates the records but doesn't find anything for Vacher, and the party decides to head over to Neuvillette's office.

At the office, Navia tells Neuvillette about Vacher and why they're looking for him. However, he doesn't find anyone of that name either. Neuvillette also expresses his disappointment in the treatment of Navia's father, but she asks him why he didn't just let her stop the duel that day even though he thouꦕgh🅘t there was something fishy with the case.

As the party heads back out of the building, it starts raining (Remember what Freminet said?). This rain, however, gives Traveler the idea that the Primordial Seawater could be involved with Navia's father's case. Back at Spina Di Rosula's main base, we got to know a lot more about the case involving Navia's fat♓her:

• Her father was trying to locate the main person who started the business of a drink called Sinthe. This drink gave people pleasure the first time they drank it, but made them lose control over their emotions as they kept going.
• He met up with one of the Sinthe dealers, and one of them named Jacques agreed to give him the information because he regretted the effects of Sinthe.
• However, on the night when they met, people heard two gunshots and found Jacques dead with a gun in Callas' hand.

At the time, they hadn't paid much attention to a set of clothing that was on the scene, but it became imp🧸ortant evidence after the introduction of Primordial Seawater.

In the same conversation, Melus reveals the main reason behind Callas' doings. He found out that the mastermind's next target was Navia herself, and he was also diagnosed with a disease and had only five years to live. He also landꦆed on the crucial information of the main base for the mastermind, but decided to use the information as a means to protect Naviꦚa.

He made it known that a few members of Spina Di Rosula know something about the Sinthe business, but also said that the truth will never come to light if Navia remains unharmed. As Navia decided to mess with the mastermind again, she instantly started being targeted. Melus' rec꧋ent investigation also revealed that one of the three people is a mole in Spina Di Rosula:

• Florent, senior advisor
• Marcel, Navia's uncle
• Thierry, the connection between Spina and Fontaine guards.

After investigating all the targets, the Traveler and Navia think that Marcel is the most suspicious. However, before they can act on that, Thierry appears and tells them that the Fontaine court has charged Childe as the culprit for the serial disappearance case, and he's about to be trie𒁏d in court. At this point, the two decide to split up in their investigation.

While Navia accuses Marcel at the Opera Hou✱se, the Traveler heads into the mastermind's lair and discovers many secrets:

• The person named Vacher, and his lover, Vigneire, used to go adventuring through ruins together until the latter came into contact with some Primordial Seawater and dissolved. However, Vacher couldn't have the same fate because he wasn't from Fontaine.
• He then started experimenting on various women that were the same age as Vigneire, and dissolved all of them into water without any success of reversing the process. He even kept their belongings in the hideout.
• To get the money required for this process, Vacher started the Sinthe business, and tried to execute Callas when he got in the way. However, the execution didn't go as planned, and he ended up dissolving the assassin and placing the blame on Callas that day.
• Finally, you see a piece of paper with Vacher and Vigneire's favorite baby names written on it, and what do you know, one of them was Marcel indeed.

After Marcel is charged as guilty and the verdict is confirmed by the Oratrice Mechanique d'Analyze Cardinale, Neuvillette then asks Childe to step on the stand as he still has to get a verdict since he was initially accused. However, he also mentions that the mastermind has been convicted, so it's obvious to assuꦰme that Childe is innocent.

To everyone's surprise, for the first time, the Oratrice goes against Neuvillette's decision and shows Childe as guilty regarding the serial disappearance case. Childe doesn't a🔯ccept this and tries to fight back, but Neuvillette quickly subdues him and promises that he'll investigate what happened with the Oratrice thoroughl🅰y, but till then, Childe has to respect the rules.

Furina, however, says that it was all according to her plan and the Oratrice didn't do anything wrong. As Vacher is being taken out of the court, he learns from the Traveler that Vigneire is in the Fountain of Lucine, and Neuvillette permi꧂ts him to enter. However, it wasn't quite a heart-touching reunion as yo☂u'd expect.

One of the first lines mentioned by t💛he Oceanid in this domain is:

But Vacher... 🦩🔜If you ask me, this world would be better off without you.

The Oceanid in the Fountain of Lucine revealed that it wasn't Vigneire, but all the sacrifices that lost their lives at the hands of Vacher.꧋ They all turned into water and merged into one consciousness. They said that Vigneire despises him, doesn't want to see him, and her saying that he shouldn't come to the Fountain was her last drop of pity for him.

After that, Vacher's victims surround him, and back in the real world, you find out that Vacher lost his soul and died of fright.

This case has shaken Neuvillette's belief, and he came to meet Navia to display his grief. He said that he believed an innocent man would never throw his life away, and let Callas have his duel because of that.

The Fortress Of Meropide Arc

The crisis of Fontaine isn't nearly over even though you've solved the serial disappearance case, a new problem arises in the form of a Fatui Harbinger. Neuvillette calls you to his office and informs you that Arlecchino a.k.a. The Knave, who's number fourth of the Fatui Harbingers, requested to confirm Childe's health in the Fortress Of Meropi❀de.

He also reveals that Childe has suspiciously disappeared from the Fortress, and he needs the Traveler to investigate their whereabouts. You head down to the Fortress with fake criminal charges and meet with Lyney and the gang there to learn that they have their own goal of investigating the forbidden area down there.

You also learn of some Forbidden Rules where you're asked not to do specific things if you want to be safe.

After a few long and treacherous days in the prison, you learn that the rules were created by three people who were serving Childe to keep the tunnels empty at night and allow his escape. However, the tunnels that Ch🎉ilde used to escape are filled with water and he couldn't have possibly gone out. Lyney then sends Freminet to investigate Childe's whereabouts and Lynette to investigate a hatch in the Infirmary🌠.

However, it turns out that the Duke of the prison, Wriothesley, is ahead of everyone and already captured Lynette while Clorinde saves Freminet from the waters. After a showdown between Lyney and Wriothesley w♕here Sigewinne has to intervene, you learn some very important things about the surroundings of the Fortress of Meropide.

An important thing that's easy to miss is Childe's underlings saying that he left because he heard a certain "call".

Wriothesley first reveals that he let Lyney continue to dabble into the Fortress' issues because he also wanted to know what happened to Childe. Moreover, it seems that the Primordial Seawater is somehow getting leaked into the sea and increasing its concentration around the For♔tress of Meropide, which almostꦿ took Freminet's life.

Next, he takes you to the infamous Forbidden Area where he shows you a meter that's constantly rising. He reveals that the meter calculates the level of the Primordial Seawater itself, and the prison is built above none other than the Primordial Sea. He also sh🌳ows you a ship that he's creating in case the prophe💎cy is true.

The next day when you wake up in prison, you realize that Primordial Seawater has already broken through the meter shown before, and Wriothesley is holding it off temporarily with Clorinde. You head to the surface and ask for Neuvillette's help, but he also mentions that The Knave is about to meet with Furina and the Traveler needs to be there to protect her.

While Neuvilᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚlette shows his true power and pushes the Primordial Water back down before casting a seal over it, he says an important line:

T𝄹his sentence is too severe,ౠ forgive me for overruling it.

Back up in the chambers, an earthquake is witnessed by Arlecchino, Furina, and the Traveler. Knowing that this is a result of what happened in the Fortress, Arlecchino seriously starts mounting pressure on Furina and asks her just how she's going to save the Fontainians from the prophec🦩y. You then witness a side of Furina never before seen where she stands up for herself and refutes Arlecchino's claims.

Arlecchino asks the Traveler to walk her out where she reveals that she already tried to assassinate Furina and take the Gnosis. However, not only was the Gnosis not held by her, but it also seemed like she wasn't the Hydro Archon at all. It seemed like she was under some sort of curse. Seeing her pitiful state, Arlecchino leaves F♋urina alive.

You also talk to Neuvillette right after where he hints that he's none other than the Dragon Sovereign of Water. However, he doesn't have the full power of the dragon since some of this power was stolen by the first Usurper, and that power is what gives the Archons their autho𝓀rity.

Keep in mind that Neuvillette isn't like the other dragons that we've met across Teyvat. He's the first Dragon Sovereign we meet in the story.

Dragon Sovereigns were the beings that ruled over Teyvat bef🏅ore the first Usurper.

The Truth About The Primordial Sea

Just before leaving the Fortress, you have a dream where you see Childe in an ocean with a giant whale. Things start going downhill super fast from this point as you hear another tremor as you leave the Fortress. Turns out this tremor came from a surge of Primordial Seawater in Poisson, which was the base of Spina Di Rosula.

As you head over there, you learn that Silver and Melus, the best NPCs in the game, have unfortunately lost their lives to save the other people. You alꦓso learn that The Knave provided support to Spina Di Rosula and evacuated everyone much faster. She also asks you to investigate some ruins nearby that could be linked to the prophecy.

Navia requests to come with you to these ruins, and The Knave doesn't mind it either.

However, a bridge breaks down in the ruins and Navia falls into the Primordial Seawater. The game then takes you to a court where some people, specifically, the people who lost their lives in Poisson recently, ask Navia to join and become one with them. However, Melus and Silver protect her and defend her against the crowd. Amidst ꦡall thisꦍ, Neuvillette appears in court and drags Navia out before her consciousness dissipates.

You then head over to a room where you find four slates resembling the prophecy of Fontaine, and the slates are mentioned as "the history of the future". There are four slates in this area:

• The first slate is missing.
• The second slate shows the previous Hydro Archon, Egeria, praying to the Heavenly Principles, as if confessing her sin.
• The third slate shows the Hydro Archon falling into the water herself.
• Finally, the fourth slate shows the Hydro Archon weeping on her chair by herself.

While the order of these slates seems wrong, Neuvillette mentions that they need the first one to decipher the prophecy fully and decides to confront Furina about it.

Some Old Voices, Some New

As you head back to Spina Di Rosula's hideout, you meet Mona there who came to Fontaine to be a part of The Steambird interview. However, she also mentions that only a Visionary could make a prophecy of this scale. You'll learn thatꩵ a few mages in the Hexenzirkel are also Visionaries, and the Traveler wil🌊l ask for their help to ascertain the prophecy.

On the other hand, Furina will still refuse to tell Neuvillette any of her secrets, and the entire Fontaine gang will make a plan to corner the Hydro Archon. Between that, you'll get to meet someone named "N" from Hexenzirkel. She'll have the same voice that you heard at the very end of the Sumeru Archon Quest, and she'll give you some usef𝔉ul information as quoted:

• "What has been prophesized will be fulfilled. You may view such things as 'the history of the future'."
• "Could things be happening in the hidden corners where the gods' gaze does not fall?"

In the end, Nicole said tﷺhat you can just play your part in this story, and fate will handle the rest.

Cornering The Hydro Archon

As the plan to corner Furina comes to fruition, you end up in a small building with her. There, Traveler tries their best to get the secret out of her, but just when it seemed like she's about to break down, the building opens up and you suddenly find yourself in The Opera Epiclese. It's finally tim✃e t🥂o judge the Hydro Archon herself.

Before the case starts, Furina asks eve💧ryone about their role in this humongous plan:

• Navia mentions that she placed actors from Spina Di Rosula to act as rioters and corner Furina into the building with the Traveler.
• Lyney's job was performing the biggest magic box trick possible by carrying an Archon from Poisson to the Opera Epiclese.
• Neuvillette and Clorinde were responsible for setting the stage and being ready for a fight so the trial can start quickly.
• The Traveler, however, was asked to give Furina one last chance to open up.

As the trial starts, the Traveler raises a serious allegation on Furina of her not being an Archon, but an impostor all along. Furina🌞, being the god of justice and all, refutes all arguments easily, but the true test comes when they ask h🌌er to dip her hand in the Primordial Seawater. If she is the Hydro Archon, the water wouldn't have any effect on her.

The group wanted to use this as a tactic to scare her into saying the truth, but Furina dipped her hand in without hesitation, and she indeed didn't dissoওlve. While this would normally mean that she won, Sigewinne came to the stage and revealed that the Seawater had been diluted spec𓆉ifically because they thought Furina would go to this extent.

It turned out that she did show signs of being in contact with the Primordial Water, confirming that she's not the Archon.

Once it's confirmed that Furina is guilty of the charge of not being the Hydro Archon, Neuvillette turns to the Oratrice for the final verdict. However, the Oratrice's respo𓃲nse shocks🍌 everyone:

The Hydro Archon, Guilty, to be puni♈shed via the Death Sentence.

The allegations against Furina were that she's not the Hydro Archon, and yet the Oratrice referred her with the same title. Moreover, the death sentence has never been given to any Fontainian before this.

The Truth About The Prophecy

Before everyone could recover from what happened, Freminet comes into the court with the missing slate from the ruins. Neuvill🎉ette then deciphers the stages as follows:

• The first slate refers to the previous Hydro Archon, Egeria, turning Oceanids into humans using the Primordial Seawater, which became her "Original Sin" and started the prophecy. That's also the reason why Fontainians dissolve when they come in contact with the Primordial Water.
• Since Egeria didn't ask for The Heavenly Principles' permission before creating another human race, the second slate shows her kneeling to Celestia and asking for forgiveness.
• The third slate, however, was misjudged by the Traveler in the ruins. Instead of showing the Hydro Archon falling in the water, it shows her being judged by her own people and refers to the current situation. It turns out that we ended up contributing to the prophecy instead.
• Finally, the fourth slate is as it looks, the Hydro Archon weeping on her throne to complete the prophecy.

As soon as everyone deciphers the slate, a giant hole opens up in the middle of Opera Epiclese, and the familiar whale that you saw in the dreams, the All-Devouring Narwhal, appears out of it and tries to eat up the people of Fontaine. However,𓆏 Childe also appears from the same hole and fights the Narwhal alongside Neuvillette to send it back ꦆinto the hole.

He mentions that Narwhal has been devouring the Primordial Sea and growing bigger, which resulted in the rise of Fontaine's sea level. Moreover, in their current state, the Traveler and Neuvillette cannot destroy it because of how big it'd gotten.

The Truth About The Hydro Archon

Amidst all this talk, the Oratrice starts up and starts executing Furina's death sentence. Traveler tries to stop it but both the Traveler and Neuvillette are transported to different domains. First, you get to see the true Hydro 𝐆Archon, Focalors, talking to Neuvillette and revealing the true past and the present of Fontaine.

Focalors mentions that she was given the task of saving the people of Fontaine by the former Hydro Archon, Egeria, but that was no easy task. The prophecy had to be fulfilled, and if she wanted to save Fontainians, she'd have to deceive the world including the Heavenly Principles that the prophecy went as it was supposed to. It was quite a predicament.

To combat this, Focalors devised a plan. She brought herself into the Oratrice with the Gnosis while she left her "human" counterpart out in the world by the name of Furina. The human counterpart was told that she needs to play the part of the Hydro Archon if she wants to save all of Fontaine, and she's been doing that, ever so meticulously🐎, for the last five hundred yea🐟rs.

All this time, getting ridiculed by Arlecchino, getting judged and betrayed by her own people, when all she was trying to do was save them.

Meanwhile, only a portion of the Indemnitium created by the Oratrice was used to power Fontaine, and the rest of it was used to create a sword powerful enough to execute the Hydro Archon and her throne. Yes, Focalors' endgame was to remove the authority of the Hydr🔯o Archon and transfer it back to the Dragon Sovereign of water, Neuvillette.

As the plan came to fruition, Neuvillette got the authority of Hydro back and forgave the Fontainians' sin, and Furina finally got her freedom while the Hydro Archon, Focalors♓, was executed. As you defeated the All-Devouring Narwhal with Neuvillette's authority, the water level did rise, and the flood came to pass, but Fontainians lived on without getting dissolved.

You also met Childe's trainer, Skirk, who mentioned that All-Devouring Narwhal is her master's pet, and the master's name is Surtalogi.

The Fontaine Finale

During the final few dialogues of Fontaine after the flood had passed, you learn a few important things. The first of them being that the Hydro Gnosis is now with Arlecchino, and she's taking it back to Snezhnaya. Moreover, Childe is 🎃also now safely back in Snezhnaya and recovering from his injuries from the long battle. You give his Vision to Arle🅠cchino for delivery as well.

Neuvillette also tells you that he used his authority as a dragon to convert the Primordial Seawater inside Fontainians' bodies into pure blood, and that's how they survived the flood. You also learn that the Visions are nothing but thꦫe remains of the Thi🦹rd Descender in Teyvat.
