Genshin Impact's most recent anime-inspired Sumeru promo has created additional excitement for the next major update. The video shows a couple of interesting scenes that include a number of new characters including the famous Dendro Archon Nahida.
A new post on the popular Genshin Impact subReddit points out an interesting interaction between Nahida and one of the game's most iconic characters, the Adventurer's Guild receptionist, Katheryne. Reddit user H4xolotl has shared a screenshot from the video in which Nahida seems to be hiding behind Katheryne's legs in her Adventurer's Guild booth.
Even though the scene only shows characters' legs, H4xolotl managed to identify Katheryne by her unique type of shoes. The reason why Nahida would hide in Katheryne's booth has become a popular topic in the Genshin Impact community and fans are convinced that the matter will get resolved once the new major update arrives. As Sumeru's Archon, Nahida will play one of the most important roles in the upcoming storyline. The game's official story has already confirmed that she's the youngest out of the seven Genshin Impact Archons which is also hinted by her child-like model.
Talking to Katheryne allows players to collect various rewards for Genshin Impact's Daily Commissions as well as send their characters on expeditions. Even though she seems like a regular NPC, a big part of the community has always been suspicious about this mysterious character who seems to be present in all the Adventurer's Guild headquarters at the same time. A recent fan-made theory claims that she could be related to one fo the Eleven Fatui Harbingers, Sandrone, due to the similarities in their appearance.
Fans claim that even though she seems to be protecting Nahida in the video, Katheryne could still be Sandrone's robot spy whose main job is to collect information from Genshin Impact's major regions. Katheryne even has a couple of voice lines which include the words "rebooting" and "error" which gives additional credibility to this theory.
When it comes to Nahida's release date, is expected to arrive in Genshin Impact Version 3.2 which would break HoYoverse's pattern of adding new Archons to the playable roster one update after a new region arrives. Going by the game's usual update schedule, update 3.2 should arrive around the end of November. Even though a big part of the fan-based claimed that they were disappointed by Nahida's overall design, a recent Genshin Impact survey confirmed that she is actually the by far most popular upcoming character.
