Reflected in the gacha game mechanics with a detailed lore and a steadily revealed system of characters’ origins in Genshin Impact, as of version 5.1 new and old characters have emerged adding more depth and context to what the known lore contains.
Who or what is Ronova?
Of all the above-discussed characters, there is Ronova, the Sovereign of Death and one of the Heavenly Principles. Well, that brings us to an obvious question: who is Ronova in Genshin, and how does she participate in the formation of today’s Natlan in Genshin Impact? I have provided further details in the following sections, along with their theoretical assortment from my perspective.
Ronova acts as the Sovereign of Death and is one of the four members of the Heavenly Principles in the Genshin Impact game. She directed the creation of the laws of Natlan and helped to build the worlds for the Night Kingdom to stand against the Abyss with Yohualtecuhtin. The part played in framing laws for Natlan and in helping the establish the Night Kingdom was thus her way of expressing affection and making amends.
It was the first Pyro Archon, Xbalanque, who made an agreement with Ronova to set the law to govern in Natlan. Xbalanque used the Divine Throne to subjugate Ronova to put up with the metaphysical laws indicated in the land of Natlan. He also created a way whereby the people of Natlan may rise to the level of Pyro Archon through the process of Pilgrimage of the Return of the Sacred Flame in as much as get acquainted with the memories of their origin through the dichotomy of the Sacred Flames.
Even though Ronova stated that she would deny any allegations that she helped Natlan and stated that instead, Xbalanque stole her powers, she was seen as violating the expectations of a Shade and thus some of the Heavenly Principles became disgruntled. At this point, Yohualtecuhtin with this excess, says that she was disposed into ‘self-pity’ and was indifferent when others called her by tones of other heavenly principles unacceptable in society.
She had the powers that Mavuika used at the end of Act IV of Chapter V Archon Quest to fight off the Abyss invasion in Natlan as well as reveal the fake sky. Despite this, for being the Sovereign of Death, Ronova has her powers and it is not without a catch. For one to harness the strength of death he must also be prepared for his or her own death. In the event the user of her powers relapses in conquering the fear of death many innocent souls would be claimed as the cost for such conquest.
