Art of Khemia

The Art of Khemia is a form of alchemy that was developed in and primarily used by the people of Khaenri'ah. Because Khaenri'ah was an underground nation with little natural fauna, the Art of Khemia focuses on the creation of life; its capabilities are vastly different from those practiced in the Seven Nations of Teyvat.
500 years ago, the Art of Khemia was a major factor in the fall of Khaenri'ah during the cataclysm.

The star-shaped mark on Albedo's neck was left after sealing the area where life force was infused into his vessel. He likens it to a birthmark and a left on glassware made through .
Before she created Albedo, Rhinedottir produced another "abandoned experiment" during her Primordial Human Project. After deeming it a failure, she apparently had him devoured by Durin, allowing him to eventually re-emerge after Durin's death over Dragonspine.
