In Enkanomiya Īfter Enkanomiya fell into the depths, their pleas and prayers went unanswered by the Primordial One and its other three shades. In Inazuma Įi believes that Istaroth may have assisted Makoto, with or without her knowledge, in manipulating time to plant the Sacred Sakura, as both her and Yae Miko were unconvinced that Makoto would be able to do so herself. After the fall of the aristocracy, the Mondstadt Library - once the largest library in northern Teyvat - was reduced to a sixth of its former size following the Great Fire of Fall Equinox. Two notable incidents may have contributed to loss of information pertaining to Istaroth: During the Mondstadt Aristocracy's corrupt period, the Lawrence Clan suppressed knowledge about Mondstadt's history and destroyed historical records and relics to hide their own degeneracy. Somewhat ironically, Istaroth was forgotten over time and people came to believe that Barbatos was the sole deity of worship in Mondstadt. The worship of both gods was primarily conducted on a tall clifftop facing the eastern sea, likely at the Thousand Winds Temple which shares its name with one of Istaroth's epithets. During the formation of the new Mondstadt, at least three of its prominent clans - the Gunnhildr Clan, the Imunlaukr Clan, and the Lawrence Clan - all worshipped both the Anemo Archon and the God of Time. Istaroth herself is known as the "thousand winds," but no direct relation between the two has explicitly been made.Īfter the fall of Decarabian's Mondstadt, Barbatos ascended to godhood and became the Anemo Archon. ![]() ![]() Before he gained power, he was a "single thread of the thousand winds that roared through the northern lands," an elemental spirit without any divine power. Istaroth's direct role in Mondstadt's history is currently unknown, but in the early days of Barbatos' Mondstadt, she was worshipped alongside the Anemo Archon himself.īarbatos amassed power during the Archon War as a result of the Gunnhildr Clan's worship of him, and he later participated in the rebellion against Decarabian. In the midst of the massive destruction, the land of Enkanomiya sank below the waters and was cut off from Teyvat. Istaroth may have contributed to the new world the Primordial One made.įollowing the arrival of the Second Who Came and the catastrophe that followed, Istaroth presumably participated in the war on the Primordial One's side against the Second Who Came. 40 years after the Primordial One's appearance, the Seven Sovereigns were vanquished and the seven nations submitted to its authority. To that end, it created four shining shades of itself, one of which was likely Istaroth. Later, this worship faded following Orobashi's appearance, and disappeared completely after the move to Watatsumi Island.Īfter the arrival of the first throne of the heavens, the Primordial One appeared and fought against the Seven Sovereigns of the old world. ![]() However, the worship of Istaroth or even the knowledge of her existence has been all but forgotten in Teyvat, though her legacy has been subtly preserved through phrases related to "the winds of time." The Enkanomiyans continued to worship her after their island sunk beneath the surface world, seeing her as the only one who had not forsaken them. She has been worshipped in Mondstadt and Enkanomiya both before and concurrently with the rise of The Seven. She is known by a plethora of titles, including the God of Moments, the God of Time (alternatively, Master of Time or Ruler of Time), Kairos, the Thousand Winds of Time (or simply the Thousand Winds), the Undying Wind, and Tokoyo Ookami. Istaroth is a god with control over time and wind, and is likely one of the four shining shades of the Primordial One.
