==Story==
When the Traveler and their sibling attempted to leave Teyvat, the unknown god blocked their path. Calling herself the "sustainer of heavenly principles," she denounced the "arrogation of mankind," and engaged the twins in battle. It is possible that she believed they were refugees from Khaenri'ah seeking to escape the cataclysm by traveling to another world, thus preventing their escape.In the original Chinese text, she says . It is unclear whether she is referring to a single character or speaking about humanity in general, as the term on its own does not specify singular or plural. She summoned swarms of dark red cubes to attack them (similar to the dark red cubes that ravaged Khaenri'ah)YouTube: Genshin Impact Story Teaser We Will Be Reunited (Contains spoilers) and trapped each twin individually within the cubes.
Upon being completely engulfed by her powers, the Traveler fell into a deep sleep and experienced countless nightmares. Once they awoke five hundred years later, their powers had been sealed away and they found no trace of their sibling. Unbeknownst to the Traveler, their sibling had awoken from the unknown god's imprisonment long before them, and eventually became the leader of the Abyss Order.
