It was the day I invaded Teyvat and reshaped it to my liking... I created four shadows of myself to manage Teyvat in my stead. Back then, they seemed so loyal and obedient. But after I fought Nibelung, the Dragon King and original master of Teyvat, I fell into a slumber for thousands of years. When I finally awoke, Asmoday had vanished, Nabe—no, Rhinedottir—was still conducting her bizarre experiments, Istaroth looked as lethargic as ever, and Ronova was standing stiffly at attention.
Endowed with the authority over Death. Personality: Cold and blunt. However, seeing as she shared her power with Xbalanque, the first Pyro Archon, she isn't entirely heartless. Characteristics: The Shade of Death. She tries her absolute best to show no weakness and maintain unwavering loyalty in front of Guest, the Heavenly Principles. This is because, as mentioned in the personality section, she was severely scolded after being caught secretly sharing her power with the first Pyro Archon.
Possesses the authority over Life. Personality: She looks like a diligent worker on the surface, but she's actually a mad scientist who cares for nothing but her experiments. She has a subtle, sly side. Characteristics: The Shade of Life. She fused herself with the previous Shade of Life, Naberius, and has now taken over the position. She used to create strange things with alchemy, but now that she has divine authority, her creations have become even more bizarre. Naberius lives within Rhinedottir, and they can communicate with each other. She calls Naberius "Ms. Nabel." One of the Five Sinners, known as "Gold" (the sin of desecrating life), and codename R of the Hexenzirkel. She is the mother of her creation, Albedo. Everyone is aware that Naberius and Rhinedottir have fused.
Endowed with the authority over Time. Personality: Quiet and gentle. Characteristics: The Shade of Time. Unlike Ronova, she distributed her power to many—such as a wind spirit (the current Anemo Archon) and the priestess of the moon (Sibyl)—but because she gave it out in small increments, she managed to avoid being scolded. She lacks motivation and finds everything bothersome.
Endowed with the authority over Space. Personality: ??? Characteristics: The Shade of Space. She is currently missing.
The former Shade of Life who can now only exist within Rhinedottir. Personality: Surprisingly kind and gentle. Characteristics: Because she resides within Rhinedottir, she can only communicate with her and is unable to speak with the other Shades.
After thousands of years of slumber, Guest finally awakens. Sensing that presence, the three remaining Shades have all gathered at Celestia.
