Liyue Areas
High above the mortal world lies the Sea of Clouds, where islands of stone float like forgotten thoughts suspended in the sky. Peaks pierce through drifting mist like the spines of sleeping gods, and the horizon dissolves into endless white silence. Here, the world feels unreal, softened by altitude and myth. It is said that those who walk these heights are no longer entirely bound to the earth, as if Liyue itself begins to loosen its grip on reality.
Below the soaring heights rests Bishui Plain, a land of quiet abundance. Golden fields ripple beneath warm winds, and rivers carve patient paths through villages that seem untouched by urgency. Life here is steady, cultivated, and harmonious. Every harvest feels like a continuation of an ancient promise that the land will provide, as long as it is respected in return.
At the edge of Liyue, rivers surrender themselves to the sea in the Qiongji Estuary. The tides shimmer like liquid glass, reflecting both sky and stone in a constant state of becoming. Ships drift through misty waters carrying distant fortunes, while seabirds trace silent arcs overhead. It is a place where all journeys converge then quietly begin again.
Minlin is a wild tapestry of forest and cliff, where nature and ruin entwine like old companions. Ancient trees rise through fog-draped valleys, and waterfalls fall like silver threads stitched into the earth. Hidden within its green depths are remnants of forgotten ages stone carvings, broken pillars, and paths that seem to lead both forward and backward in time.
Lisha stands as Liyue’s unyielding foundation, where jagged peaks and deep ravines carve the land into solemn geometry. The earth here feels deliberate, as if shaped by hands that valued permanence above all else. Mineral veins glow faintly within the rock, and echoes travel strangely through the canyons like the land itself is still speaking in the language of old agreements and forgotten vows.
