Story Teaser: The Divine Damsel of Devastation | Genshin Impact

A strange tale that tells of adeptal affinity, where things are no longer what they once were, save for the thousands of threads of sorrow.
The opera sings about the feats of a heroine, with new lines added to the story, and told anew in many homes.

Yun Jin says in the character menu she likes rock music and goes to Xinyan's rock concerts, even though the other opera people scorn her for it. That makes the fact there's subtle rock elements in this song all the more fitting and awesome, since it really reflects her character.

Props to them for hiring a professional Opera singer and sticking with their culture, hope to see more like this.

As a kid who grew up in a family of Chinese opera singers, this was an amazing cutscene to watch in my first playthrough. Had me in tears 😭 it’s so beautiful

[hichatstopher]

Even after almost a year this song still sends shivers down my spine

[thermonuclearmememonke]

Beautiful cutscene, especially the vocals! Hoping that they’ll enable an option to replay cutscenes in-game

[EvanAdvent]

MiHoYo, PLEASE let us rewatch these scenes in the game itself. These are getting better every Version Update.

This song is so beautiful. Even after all these months, coming to listen again it brings tears to my eyes. I'm not even sure why but something about it really strikes a cord in me.

[kissingthehomies]

This cut scene was so well put together, I love the singing and the story quest.

Even as a Chinese, I don’t Normally listen to Chinese opera. But THIS, the way they combine traditional music with modern music, listening to the lyrics while remembering shenhe’s backstory, just beautiful. That last drop made my eyes run like a waterfall. Mihoyo just keeps on amazing me non stop

[lightronger]

My favorite part is how the song isn't just Shenhe's story but also Yun Jin's. The first half is written by Yun Jin's father and a traditional tale of the divine damsel Shenhe who joins the adepti. Yun Jin's new lines tell the story of a mortal Shenhe, where the human experience takes precedence over tradition and deification. The Chinese lines are also literally "The tunes are high, but there are those who understand her song and will harmonize with her music", which can be applied to not just Shenhe but also Yun Jin's music.

This is the Reason why a lot of us Genshin players actually play the game, The Lust for characters is for shits and giggles, but Moments in the game like this really make the game the reason we want to continue the Journey of Teyvat.

This story quest was so awesome, i actually cried when Shenhe saved the Traveler

[adamilrollecoasterdivorcee]

"From the world she seems apart, but there are those who know her heart"

This verse always gets me in tears especially till that scene when Shenhe is literally watching Yunjin as she tells her story. It was so beautifully made

[IonStormYT]

Incredibly well made. May all future character and storyline maintain this standard for the other regions too!

[trinamaeojendras]

After listening to Furina's song, I went back here to listen Yunjin's classical opera song. I really love it when Mihoyo includes different languages especially musicals ❤️

[lonely_in_gorgeous.]

as an ethnic chinese, and someone who is training to become a chinese opera singer, i am so so so glad that mihoyo hired a professional chinese opera singer to sing yunjin's part, used traditional chinese instruments such as the gong, guzheng, and pipa in this song. thank you for this excellent representation mihoyo. this brought tears to my eyes. 米哈游，非常感谢。<3

[necropepper]

her voice literally brought tears to my eyes. the way she delivered the tale through the song was simply divine. i really hope they make more of these.

[wrmz]

I'm so glad they gave her a chance to sing with music, it sounds absolutely gorgeous, and the animation is perfect as usual.

[vahntreorrproduction]

You know why this performance is so touching? It's because we've Learned Senhe's past, current struggle, and we've fought with her. After the grueling quest, this performance is the best reward to us, players. Also the best representation of Chinese literature.

[russull]

cutscenes in videogames don't often have me going to youtube right after to watch them again, but wow. what an all-around gorgeous piece of work.
