Realm of Consciousness

A realm of consciousness is a domain built on a person's consciousness which is separate from the world of Teyvat; however, events that occur within a realm of consciousness can affect the outside world. Little is known about how realms of consciousness work, and Yae Miko describes them as "very abstract concept[s]" surrounded by chaos.
==Overview==
As its name suggests, a realm of consciousness is an abstract space which contains a person's consciousness. It can be accessed via an entrance, which takes on a form that relates to its owner. The interior of a realm of consciousness is also influenced by its owner's memories.
A person's realm of consciousness can exist even after their physical body perishes, and the person can maintain their sense of self even after their death. However, such a realm cannot be preserved indefinitely, and the owner is unable to perceive the state of the outside world or the passage of time.
==Story==
===Makoto's===
Makoto's realm of consciousness was preserved by Ei after the former's death during the cataclysm, and its entrance takes the form of a torii gate. Although Ei sealed the entrance, the Shogun eventually unlocked it when their wills opposed each other to allow them to fight each other at full strength (as Ei no longer had a physical body of her own). Unbeknownst to Ei, Makoto had used her realm of consciousness so Ei could one day understand her vision of "Eternity," after which her remaining consciousness within the Musou Isshin would be awakened to give Ei the seed of the Sacred Sakura. After Ei planted the Sacred Sakura in the realm of consciousness, it took root in Inazuma's past, allowing it to protect Inazuma by absorbing the filth from the cataclysm. Afterwards, Makoto's strength and consciousness was expended, and her realm of consciousness disappeared. The Dream Sakura, which the Traveler obtained from Makoto's realm of consciousness, continues to exist in a quasi-physical form that can be seen but is intangible.
===Lesser Lord Kusanali's===
As part of the plan to rescue Lesser Lord Kusanali from her imprisonment in the Sanctuary of Surasthana, the Traveler entered her realm of consciousness, as she had closed off her consciousness to prevent Il Dottore from accessing her mind via the Akasha. The entrance to her realm of consciousness took the form of a newly sprouted tree branch.
===Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's===
Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's realm of consciousness was left behind after her death in the cataclysm and its entrance took the form of a Knowledge Capsule, which was opened after Lesser Lord Kusanali used the power of the Electro Gnosis. The Gnosis provided some protection against the forbidden knowledge corruption in Rukkhadevata's remaining consciousness. Because Rukkhadevata herself had been contaminated by forbidden knowledge during the cataclysm, her connection to Irminsul meant that it could not be healed so long as the memory of her persisted. After Kusanali erased Rukkhadevata's existence and remaining consciousness, her realm of consciousness, which Kusanali now believed to be that of Irminsul from five hundred years ago, disappeared. Without Rukkhadevata's tainted existence, Irminsul was healed and everything caused by its contamination, such as Eleazar, disappeared.
==Trivia==
* The English localization of the Magatsu Mitake Narukami no Mikoto Materials' descriptions refer to Makoto's realm of consciousness as the "Plane of Euthymia," but it is never referred to as a "Plane of Euthymia" during the quests which involve it. The original Chinese text corresponding to it in the materials' descriptions is simply whereas Ei's Plane of Euthymia is almost always referred to as the proper noun 
* During the , Neuvillette meets Focalors in an unidentified space while the Traveler meets Furina in her inner world. Neither are explicitly referred to as realms of consciousness, but time in both spaces do not flow the same way as it does in reality, and they return to the real world at the same point in time that the preceding quest left off at.
