** Perinheri eventually becomes one of the mightiest figures in the kingdom, known as Perinheri the undefeated.

* >2000 years ago ― A diplomatic team from Khaenri'ah, including Oogura and Ooshima, travels to Enkanomiya.The Khaenri'ah diplomats appeared in Enkanomiya shortly before the move to Watatsumi Island was completed.

==The Cataclysm (500 years ago)==
* Dainsleif, known as the "Twilight Sword," is a royal guard of the Eclipse Dynasty. He is unable to protect the people of Khaenri'ah and is cursed with immortality, wandering aimlessly, and forced to watch the people he was meant to protect turn into monsters of the Abyss and hilichurls.
*Khaenri'ahns who are of pure-blood descent are deemed as "the greater sinners" and punished with the curse of immortality, while all other citizens (those who are half-blood or hail from other nations entirely) are punished with the "curse of the wilderness," transforming them into monsters such as hilichurls, Abyss Mages, Abyss Lectors, Abyss Heralds or The Black Serpents.
** Of these, Pierro, a royal mage, Capitano, a commander, Chlothar, a noble, are afflicted with the curse of immortality.
* The Traveler's Sibling witnesses Khaenri'ah's destruction. They return to where the Traveler still lay unconscious from their crash-landing on Teyvat, wake them up, and briefly takes them to Khaenri'ah before attempting to leave this world and move onto another one.
* The one-eyed king Irmin grew weak. The Alberich Clan stepped in as regents.
==Post-Cataclysm (500 years ago to Present)==
* At some point after the cataclysm, the Traveler's sibling wakes up and travels the world of Teyvat with Dainsleif.
* ? years ago ― Pierro, having become embittered by the "forbidden principles of the world," meets with the Archon, the Tsaritsa, and decides to support her cause, forming the Fatui.
** ? years ago ― Capitano joins sometime afterwards as the First of the Fatui Harbingers.
** ? years ago ― The Crimson Moon Dynasty continues to have descendants after their fall from power, and one of them, Arlecchino (though unaware of her heritage at the time), joins as the Fourth of the Fatui Harbingers.

*? years ago ― Near the end of their journey, the Traveler's sibling realizes the "truth of this world" and parts ways with Dainsleif. Eventually, the Traveler's sibling aligns themselves with the Abyss Order and declares Dainsleif to be their enemy.
*? years ago ― After Chlothar is driven fully insane by the effects of the curse of immortality, he disappears and is presumed to have died within the realm of the Avidya Forest after finally finding a way to break the curse. The Abyss Order continues operation, now under the control of the Traveler's sibling.
*? years ago ― Klingsor, a refugee from Khaenri'ah, joins the Order of Skeptics. However, he becomes suspicious of their teachings and eventually embraces the Abyss, though his plans unleash the Abyss are foiled by the remaining members and the Pari. Despite the setback, he attempts to find ways to break the seal, eventually convincing the then-head of the Order, Nasejuna, to work with him.
**The two later attempt to convince a Pari named Sorush to sacrifice herself to break the seal, but the plan is foiled by the Traveler, who Sorush had made her Yasnapati.
*? years ago ― Halfdan, an elite in the Royal Guards, is cursed and transformed into a Black Serpent Knight: Windcutter. Despite having been severely eroded, he remembers Dainsleif's face and orders, leading a group of The Black Serpents to protect several hilichurls entering The Chasm: Underground Mines, recognizing them as Khaenri'ahn residents.
* ~10 years ago ― Kaeya's father takes him from Khaenri'ah to Mondstadt and abandons him near Dawn Winery, calling him their "last hope."
