Genshin Impact - Durin's Story Quest «The Magic Known as Storytelling»

Durin's story quest is BEAUTIFUL 🥹

Durin was born in the storybook world of Simulanka created by his mother to rewrite his tragic fate as the corrupted dragon of Dragonspine.

Anye Marie ("M" of the Hexenzirkel) leaves him her magic pen on her deathbed:

"You alone can defy the fate of this world and write the perfect ending to my story."

She fought against destiny to give him a happy future.

In this story quest, you enter a book filled with magic ink, choose different paths and work your way toward the perfect ending for Durin. If you reach a bad ending, you're sent back and each outcome reveals layers of lore.

Now Durin is a Pyro dragon / human in Mondstadt (thanks to Albedo, his "brother") and has good friends like Wanderer who encourages him to fly, the people of Mondstadt who welcome him, and the Traveler and Paimon who support him.

The true found family.

Genshin Impact «Soulblazers' Snowbound Journey» Story Event

The main plot of this event is a wholesome story set during the Dragonspine International Cross Country Championship in Mondstadt. It revolves around the Soulblazers team, a group of passionate fans of the comic "The Soulblazer Saga" by Yae Publishing House, inspired by heroes such as Fietena, Mavuika, Wanjiru, Menilek and Tupac.

Minnie's arc is the heart of the event, a young and determined girl, passionate comic fan who dreams of traveling beyond Mondstadt and becoming a comic artist. At first, she doubts her physical strength and artistic talent due to family pressure but she grows through the support of her team, shows true heroism and earns her parents' approval to pursue her dreams.

Main Characters

Soulblazers: Varesa (captain from Natlan), Xilonen (vice captain also from Natlan), Minnie (local Mondstadt girl, aspiring artist), Alrani (student of the Sumeru Akademiya), Tang Yigang (comic enthusiast).

Traveler and Paimon (actively involved).

Supporting characters: Amber and Heinz (organizers), Draff (referee), Lisa (librarian), Minnie's parents (Moritz and Sherilyn), Patton (Minnie's brother), Kenzou (runner in danger).

Part 1: The Shining Warriors Take the Stage

The Traveler and Paimon receive an invitation and arrive at the camp. They meet Amber and Heinz, members of the organizing committee from the Knights of Favonius. They visit the Soulblazers' camp, where Alrani and Yigang dramatically quote lines from the comics. Xilonen explains that it is a fan club proposed by Minnie.

They find Varesa enthusiastically welcoming them and Minnie training exhaustively with Varesa to fulfill a pact with her parents of winning the race in exchange for permission to travel. When she sees the Traveler, she idolizes them as a "real life comic hero". Varesa praises Minnie's progress, emphasizes proper nutrition and motivates her.

Later, the Traveler and Paimon read an excerpt from the comic in which Fietena learns battle timing alongside Mavuika.

Part 2: Now's No Time for Tears

The team visits the Mondstadt Library. Xilonen falls asleep at a table, Yigang and Alrani discuss mecha spin offs, Varesa recalls how she bonded with Xilonen through comics and Lisa lends them books.

They have lunch at Good Hunter (Varesa orders like +30 plates, astonishing Sara). They quote Fietena to encourage Minnie, who doubts her artistic talent due to external pressure.

On the way to the camp, Minnie's brother (Patton) and back at the camp her parents (Moritz and Sherilyn) confront her for being away. They question her future in comics.

Varesa and Xilonen defend her passion by showing fan art from Nepecha. Xilonen compares it to Mondstadt's bards. The parents give in and Minnie may compete but must return home every night.

Part 3: Go, Fietena, Go!

Race day arrives. Yigang falls ill with a fever and the Traveler joins the relay:

Xilonen - Traveler - Varesa - Minnie

In the final leg, Minnie finds Kenzou (a runner from Inazuma) lost and in danger of being attacked by a Frostarm Lawachurl. She helps him reach safety, delaying the team (who arrive to help with Amber's assistance).

They don't win the race (they had been leading) but Draff awards them an honorary medal for prioritizing lives.

Proud, Minnie's parents allow her to travel to Yae Publishing House, as part of a family vacation.

This story emphasizes perseverance, friendship, the pursuit of dreams inspired by comics despite difficulties, as well as helping others above winning and family reconciliation. It is nostalgic, festive and motivating.

(It includes minigames such as hide and seek, snowball battles and combat challenges. Rewards include 780+ Primogems, the 4 star bow "Rainbow Serpent's Rain", a Crown of Insight and more).
