"Focalors: Ultimate Sacrifice" | Full Cutscene - Genshin Impact

focalors saying "hydro dragon, hydro dragon don't cry" made me cry😭

I love this archon quest's name so much. In Chinese it's 罪人舞步旋 (Masquerade of the Guilty), pronounced "Zuìrén wǔbù xuán" and if you read it backwards you'll have "Xuānbù wú rén zuì" which means "Declared no one Guilty"

I love how this entire video is focalors explaining why farina matters to her so much and then out of the blue she just says “and so I cursed her”

I love Focalor's detachment when she talks. Despite the little characterization she receives, the inhuman morality is not hidden. I'm glad they didn't follow the pure, kind-hearted anime maiden trope. Like, pureness and good intentions don't mean you will behave in a good manner. There is this subtle lack of empathy that reminds you we are not dealing with a human.

seeing furina just sitting there, crying and not responding anymore is really sad tbh

I feel so bad for Furina, the way she just sat there tiredly, not even responding anymore and just crying silently.

"She was the person I always wanted to be.... anyway, so I cursed her" I died💀

It's ironic that we learned from the Teyvat storyline that the Hydro Archon is one "not to make an enemy of the divine." And yet here she is blatantly destroying the Hydro Archon's throne returning the power to one of the Dragon Sovereigns.

She REALLY believed in Neuvillette so much that she decided to go with this plan. She invited him to take on the role of the Iudex, HOPING that he would understand the ways of humans and sympathize with them enough to 'forgive' their sins. If Neu got his power back and decided to 'nope' out of all of this, her plan is doomed.

Dang. So Furina was just forced into carrying Fontaine on her small back for 500 freaking years.

if anyone's wondering, the text in 16:57 said "its been tough for you, furina", then "pray, live blissfully, as a human, for that is what i wished for"

This was even sadder than Rukhadevatta's death. Neuvillette's heart must have shattered watching her die. And he will lose Furina too in no time. Why must he suffer like this? At least Nahida could forget what she has lost.

First makoto, then rukhadevatta, and now focalor. Just how many more sacrifices are needed to defeat and wage war with heavenly principles.

Can we not talk about how Rukkadavata and Focalars literally killed themeselves for their people? Rukka for Irminsal and Elzar. But foca just did it because the power was stolen therefore injustice and for the original sin from Egeria. Focalars was forced to die she didn’t have a choice.

It hits me hard that Neuvillette cries like I know that he's a cool dude that when he's sad it will rain, but now we witness that his crying with tears.

she has no choice with neuv, without neuv her plan doesnt exist. but she really put a FUCKING TONS of trust in Furina! Furina is a mere mortal yet played role successfully for 500 years!

I feel so bad for Neuvillette in this entire quest seriously, fitting in with humans, Carole dying a terrible death, realizing Vautrin went to prison for him, witnessing focalors die, now Furina will age and die on him, all while being the chief Justice and protector of the nation. If anyone is left weeping alone on the throne it’s him 17:45

I was wondering why Furina's hair didnt glow while using her elemental skills like the other archons! Things make so much more sense now.

This is so sad. But goddamn Furina really got that dawg in her. Imagine being a "human" taking in a role of fooling everyone for 500 years. 500 years dawg. Such mental strength, and fortitude. Even when she went on to dance on the thin line of breaking mentality (and risk going insane), she still toed on it and marched forward with nothing but a pure goal. Hell, I could say Furina got the determination like that of Otto Apocalypse. I tip my hat to Furina's absolute guts. The freedom she got after the Finale is truly long due and deserved. And Neuvillette saying he'll be supporting Furina financially. Talk about a full-fledged successful retirement. No wonder the Archons basically says nothing but praise for her. Now I want to see Furina later chilling in Mondstadt, drinking with Venti.

Imagine pretending to be someone you're not for that long... All those many, horrible, and torturing years... All in the skin of a human... And to witness how after all that effort and fight, despite feeling alone, despite being that fragile... everything comes crushing down. Everything you've done, all the pain the world put you through, changed nothing in the end... Not only her soul, her whole existence shattered at that moment. The only hope she had, the only, ONLY thing she could do, just faded away... The only purpose of all the countless days she decided to keep going forward, ceased to exist. So she sat down, and cried. Nothing matters anymore, nothing else can be said, nothing else can be done... She just cried. With this, I here shall declare, Furina... My favourite character.
