GENSHIN IMPACT; IRMINSUL

Welcome to learning all there is to know about Genshin Impact's world building!

So what is Genshin Impact and Irminsul?

Genshin Impact is an open-world rpg game that is developed by the company, Mihoyo. The game is centered around the travels of a twin searching for their sibling. The twin finds themself traversing through the seven nations on the continent known as Teyvat, with a floating fairy named Paimon as a traveling companing. Along the way, they meet the individual gods that rule over each nation, known as Archons. During their travels they face off with different kinds of enemies and learn more about the world the further they go.
In Genshin Impact, in the nation of wisdom and dendro (plants), Sumeru, the travel finds a large tree that essentially contains all information about the world and acts like a life source for Teyvat. The title of this website uses this little element as all kinds of information can be found within Irminsul, so it's a little nod to a piece of the story.
