Genshin Impact reveals concept overview for Nod-Krai region

Nod-Krai is one of the most anticipated regions in the game. It features iconic characters from the beginning of the story, including members of the Fatui organization, as we prepare to explore their homeland. Characters like Columbina are set to come to life soon, and we are just beginning to get a glimpse of what Nod-Krai will be like in Genshin Impact.

In the region concept overview, we get a glimpse of what Nod-Krai will look like. Our first stop is Paha Isle, the gathering place of the Fatui. Here, a colossal structure dominates the landscape, an otherworldly piece of architecture that resembles an alien spacecraft.

Just below lies the Blue Amber Lake, home to a massive vessel reminiscent of the great boats seen in Natlan. On the same island stands a towering tree, strikingly similar to the Wild Fairy of Erinnyes found in Fontaine.

Heading south, we arrive at Nasha Town, known as the "Elysium of Revelry for Explorers." This settlement leans heavily into mechanical design and innovation. However, the true jewel of Nod-Krai is Hiisi Island is where the Remnants of the Moonlit World rest. Bathed in a breathtaking blue-and-purple palette that evokes the glow of moonlight, its beauty is nothing short of astonishing.

Paha Isle serves as the gathering place of the Fatui, a powerful faction ruled by the Eleven Fatui Harbingers, the strongest individuals in the land. Throughout the main storyline, the Traveler has already encountered several of them, including Tartaglia, La Signora, Scaramouche, and Arlecchino. Recently, the Third Harbinger, Columbina, was unveiled as one of the upcoming playable characters in Genshin Impact.

In the first Nod-Krai teaser, we saw some parts of the Hiisi Island, as well as the upcoming character Lauma. We can see the island's deer, as well as its aesthetic and traditional outfits. Everything on the teaser is very ethereal and beautiful.

"The remnants of the far north still dwell among the ashen woods and tundras. Their golden city has long since turned to ash, their distant ancestral homeland consumed by the court of creation. Yet these proud descendants light primordial lanterns against the pitch darkness of a withering tide, spinning distant ancient hymns, praying for the New Moon's protection," the island description states.

For five centuries, the generations of Moonchanters thrived as a civilization devoted to peace, benevolence, and faith. However, their long-held tranquility was shattered with the arrival of the Fatui, who disrupted the harmony they had preserved for centuries.

Nasha Town is the most prosperous trading port in Nod-Krai, and the first lesson newcomers learn is: "Keep your Mora close to your chest." If you wish to buy a weapon, Nasha Town is the perfect place for it. You can also find multiple treasures and deals.
