Blind Pygmy: Baal/Beelzebul. Inazuma is a region that is very vertical, and the Blindness probably symbolizes how Ei was blind to what was happening to her country while she was trying to pursue eternity. She wants to keep the sinlight with them forever, signifying her quest for eternity.

This book is a quest item, you cannot progress further into the story without completing this quest and getting the book first. That means the book is important to the story. Volume 1 The Prince claims to be from the other side of the world, the "Kingdom of Light". He was full of vitality, leaves flourished and people grew stronger around him. He accompanies the Princess to fulfill her dream of bringing her people to the other side of the moon. But this requires them to first go through the Land of Night. Also, this just raises more questions about the Gnoses. Is this why the archons are so unhesitant on handing over their Gnosis? And is this the “misfortune” of holding the Gnosis that Skirk was telling Neuvillette? They walked into the cave where the Nightgaunt resides and saved another pygmy, who was timid, from the top of a stalactite. Deformed Pygmy: Morax. He made a contract with the Tsaritsa to rescue his brothers and to accompany the Prince and Princess to the Kingdom of Light. When betraying the prince, he felt guilty because he cannot uphold his contract because Celestia's evil nature forced him to betray them.As we can see we the current events, the Tsaritsa is collecting the Gnoses, as she prepares to rebel against celestia. Zhongli is by far the only archon that gives the Gnosis peacefully, and this is because he made a contract with her before.

It is said that Rex Laps was yet young, the sun was a chariot that raced across the earth. When the three sisters of the night sky were martyred in a calamity, the solar chariot fell into a deep gorge. There are already a lot of people asserting that the Archons are the six pygmies in the book series "The Pale Princess and the Six Pygmies". The Night Mother/Phanes is Genshin Impact's Demiurge. They have the 7 archons under their employment and Before Sun and Moon states that Phanes/The Primordial one created humans, much like the Demiurge. Consumed by fear for the rising tide of delusion and breakthroughs' further indicates that people were becoming aware of a world outside of Teyvat, which Phanes, as the Demiurge would not allow, dropping nails to reset the world, aswell as killing any witnesses. The princess was already in chains. The moonlight kingdom was destroyed and the people were cursed in front of her eyes. "They will be in an undead state, lingering at the point between life and death forevermore."

The Pale Princess and the Six Pygmies (IV)

https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Lore/comments/zi5wzf/revisiting_the_pale_princess_and_the_six_pygmies/ However, a question remains. If indeed, it is the Archons, then why are they Pygmies specifically? He had come to save them. He would eventually save her from the darkness and take her to a kingdom free from all shadows. Although the Prince didn't say it explicitly, the Pale Princess had sensed the possibility of his arrival through her years of meditation. I personally think everyone is reading way too far into the tree hole sentence. If the Prince is a descender, that means he wouldn’t have been in the Irminsul records in the first place. And if we’re assuming that Irminsul has already existed prior to this event, I’d be willing to bet that the last quote just means that the guilty pygmy somehow integrated the Prince into Teyvat and Irminsul, binding him to the laws of Teyvat, which is suspiciously similar to our abyss twins situation that Nahida told us about. We could infer that a short adult is a character who is not whole. It's a character who's lost a part of themselves. The Primordial One and one of its shades created the birds of the air, the beasts of the earth, and the fish of the sea. Together, they also created flowers, grass, and trees, before finally creating humans

The poison had sent the Prince into a coma as the Pale Princess slept. The six pygmies' scheme started to unfold. Fear gave root to malice, and out of malice grew evil scheming. The six pygmies started to devise their nasty plot. I'm not entirely sure if others have come to the same conclusion as me, but I can't seem to find any. Most people believe it to be the story of the Tsaritsa and other Archons, or the story of Khaenri'ah, but I will try my best to explain why I don't think this is possible for anyone who still has doubts. I speculate she is the Tsaritsa, and she is also the princess of the Kingdom of Khaenri'ah. Her dream is to see the real world, beyond the fake sky. Her skin was also as white as snow. The cover of the book also have hearts, showing that the Tsaritsa was previously the Goddess of Love. This tells that all these events occurred around 2600-500 years ago. the Prince's broken soul used up all its remaining power to curse the pygmies. For the rest of their lives, they were tormented by a curse that made them feel as if they were being cooked in a huge cooking pot, unable to ever see the light of day again.”We then suffered the torment of exile. Stripped was our connection to heaven, to our powers of enlightenment…” https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Lore/comments/mz4len/theory_the_pale_princess_and_the_six_pygmies/ Princess of the Moonlight Forest, please save my five brothers. We will vow our loyalty to you in return for your kindness,” begged a deformed pygmy who had just popped up from behind the branches. Second Possibility: Fake Sky is the ""walls of darkness". This is highly likely as well, because the book clearly says, "occasional moonlight that made it through the clouds". Clouds??? I first thought this place was in the abyss, but this statement confirms that this is Teyvat.

So, having sworn to save her people, the Princess and the Prince left the Moonlight Forest and walked hand in hand into the dark forest of the Land of Night. What's interesting here, is that in the case of the original Seven, all these events of loss and trauma happen exclusively before the khaenri'ahn incident. In Ei and Rhukkadevata's case, it is these very losses that eventually leads them to take on the role of Archon. The Prince shone with an extraordinary light. The people of the Moonlight Forest had never seen such vitality. For as the Prince strolled through the forest, life flourished around him: new leaves sprouted and the Princess and her people grew stronger. The Pale Princess lived in the moonlight forest, the only place free from the night mother's rule. Similary, Seelie were known to have lived in palaces in the Dark Sea, outside of the dominion of Phanes,

This wasteland is said to be a land beyond the dominion of the deities, inhabited only by the grotesque ghostly remains of fallen gods, where the former palaces of the Seelie now stand empty. She looked at the moon in the night sky, it almost looked like as if the moon was a hole, and on the other side was an entirely different world. She said to herself, "Will I be able to bring my people there one day?" And a prince out of nowhere answered, "You will." The Pale Princess A fairytale story that has been told throughout Teyvat for ages. The final installment brings everything to a conclusion, and includes the Night Mother's prophecy. I destroyed the Moonlight Kingdom and cursed her people before her eyes. They will be in an undead state, lingering at the point between life and death forevermore. No soul and no moonlight.
