everyone wake up, new Dinga lore dropped

location (Pillar Hall Central Zone):

[earth-shaker]

Team Xbalanque is so funny as a concept like

so we have. a lady raised by a dragon who understandably loves dragons, a boy who dreams of dragons and humans coexisting, and a girl who wants to protect every being including dragons

and then there's her twin brother who hates dragons, and the self hating dragon hybrid who thinks all dragons must die/be enslaved

and there's also a foreign spy who wants to take over the territories of dragons (and probably others). her companion who's overall character is somehow more unknown than where my early Fontaine luck went. and a guy who's only coming along because his master told him to

and they like or at least tolerate one another enough to travel together, and theyre all following this guy who is the greatest in the entire universe (really, he's a little shady and good at brainwashing). most of them seemingly think themselves loyal to him to some extent (particularly the hybrid trying to kill all dragons and the girl trying to protect them)

and then. it ends badly because of course it did

Drawing idea that I have but don’t feel like drawing yet:

(Occurs prior to everyone killing Xiuhcoatl)

Och-kan “Brethren I have something I must confess… …I am attracted to men”

The sign says “dragons are okay!!” Lianca is wearing a shirt saying “my adopted mom is a dragon actually”. Ahpub did not want to come. Yupanqui is holding a cake with the Wales flag on it. Ixquieh, Uenuku, Hinelia, Dinga and/or the Starcaller are also doing something in the picture (I have not figured out what yet). Xbalanque is nowhere to be seen and no one knows where he is

Nah I found the thread abt that r*pist/gr*omer Xiuhcoatl.

Not gonna lie to you guys its just full of 'reaching' interpretations and lore misinfo.

There's too many to count but I take one example: "Starcaller might be Och-Kan's mother."

With all due respect, that is just the wiki speculation, and tbh an innacurate speculation at that.

The Starcaller is described as a young woman, and had filled her position ever since she was a child. At least young enough that Kukulkan thought her as naive.

...Let her ankles be blessed by a flint blade, so she shall not abandon her beloved comrades. In accordance with a ancient, exalted contract, the messenger of night selected a child with a star-bright soul...

Though she, in her naivete, should have seen naught when faced with the mist and smoke...

...Just as the self-proclaimed sage had predicted, the young woman, who had once kneeled before the dragons...

- Starcaller's Watch, Citlali signature Weapon.

And when she called Xbalanque to her tribe, she was still called a girl.

Yet this hero [Dinga], venerated by future generations, did not yet know that the young seer had long since discerned how the dream would end. Until the hero [Xbalanque] passed through mist and mirrors, guided by her flutesong — only then did the girl [Starcaller] who had lost her ankles embrace him [Dinga].

- Flute of Ezpitzal, page#1

Like, I think we all agree that Xbalanque and Och-Kan had similar or close enough ages. And if both Kukulkan and Xbalanque met the Starcaller when she was a girl...

Where in the timeline that Starcaller fits to be Och-Kan's mother?

"Well Kukulkan only took her dna! It doesn't matter if she was young--" I mean, Och-Kan must took some time to grow. How come his 'mother's' age stayed relatively the same then? Even up until she met his saviour, Xbalanque?

Look I could be wrong. Genshin has a habit of making vague ahh timeline, but please do remember that this theory is just speculation, and doesn't add up to the current evidences.

And Kukulkan's affair in the Starcaller tribe is more of him making a discord inside it. He was pushing the Starcaller and baiting her 'freedom' from her duties so the dragons there would lose their dreams and the tribe came into ruin.

None noticed the schemes of the one who claimed to be a sage [Kukulkan]. A covenant was established between the people of the valley and the noble scions, And it cut off the flames of the war-chiefs' bloodlust, leaving but the peaceful silence of death on the shrouded paths, Such that even the bravest warrior in that valley could only be servile to the star-caller. This was not part of some grand plan, but the decay of the fallen disgusted him still. As such, he used small tricks to incite her to rebellion against the dragons, all in the name of goodwill. As the self-proclaimed sage had thought, manipulating the hearts of humans had always been a simple affair. Add a little fuel onto the flames of suffering here, speak a few clever words about so-called "hope" there, And that young mortal woman [Starcaller], weak as an ant and foolish as a withered tree, hung upon his every word. For had he not once guided her through the perilous realm of night, to gaze upon those night-wind shrouded ways, Though she, in her naivete, should have seen naught when faced with the mist and smoke... [sic] All that was needed now was the gentlest push, and the laughable dreamscape would surely disintegrate...

- Starcaller's Watch

I don't get how this could read that he took her dna or something similar to that, genuinely.

Yeah sorry for beating the dead horse but... that thread has so many misinfo man😭

I've been trying out makeovers on some of my dolls recently. It's always seemed kind of cool to give like sad thrift store dolls fabulous new looks, but I've honestly been worried I'd just make them uglier.

My dolls tho, so it doesn't matter lol. If I hate it I can probably just redo everything anyway. + I've had a few ceramics classes and paint/draw so much that I should really have more faith in my artistic abilities. + I know everything takes practice.

After bingeing(binging?) some nice doll making videos, I felt confident enough to try some things out myself.

Both dolls originally just had a ring of hair pulled back into a ponytail to cover the rest of the head, so my original goal was just to give them hair I liked better, but I decided to try makeup too bc why not.

I also cut a barbie dress in half and made those stripy pants out of the bottom part.

I'm pretty happy with them considering it's a new medium for me. And I learned a lot from both dolls!
