Mavuika: talks about 13 characters, talked about by 18 characters. In the story, Mavuika has a “Defined relationship” with Venti, Kachina, Xilonen and 3 others. Every tie comes with the original line from the game, and the voice lines play right on the page.
- KachinaAbout Kachina
After you rescued Kachina from the Night Kingdom, I visited her family with Chief Pacal, and brought a few gifts to once again apologize for what happened. Kachina's time in the Night Kingdom left her with many scars she will have to carry into the future — scars she should never have had to bear... And for that, the fault is mine.
- MualaniAbout Mualani
In terms of personality, Mualani and Tupac are completely different, and yet both inherited the name, Umoja. Unity lies not in a particular action, but in a state of mind — a willingness to give your all for your nation, family and friends. But, I doubt Mualani was thinking about any of that back then. She knew one thing to be true — that Kachina's life was worth any risk to her own.
- KinichAbout Kinich
In addition to the Turnfire, Malipo has another meaning, "cost" or "price." It may seem less overtly heroic compared to the other Ancient Names, but in truth, Malipo teaches us to be calm and analytical — to ask the questions people may not want to hear. Without people who possess these qualities, it's just too easy for the rest of us to act on impulse and emotion, and make decisions we'll come to regret.
- XilonenAbout Xilonen
Xilonen is one of the best craftsmen in Natlan. She has the ability to forge Ancient Names and is well-versed in Secret Source technology. Not to mention, she never backs away from a challenge, even when it's completely uncharted territory. The process isn't without twists and turns — like design changes and other modifications — but the results speak for themselves.
- ChascaAbout Chasca
Being able to survive under the influence of Abyssal corrosion was already a miracle, but thanks to the people and Saurians of this land, she even found a reason not just to survive, but to live. I have every faith in her fortitude, but I will still do what I can to make this land a "gentler" place — even the strongest among us need a break sometimes.
- OroronAbout Ororon
In my opinion, Ororon's true personality is very different from what he projects on the outside — like lava covered in ice. His tribe and his friends bring him peace, but his drive to protect them and his need to become a hero leave him restless. It's inadvisable to act on impulse, but these are precious qualities all the same.
- CitlaliAbout Citlali
Many people find her strange or difficult to get along with. But, this is how I see it — Citlali doesn't concern herself with trivial matters, but she's always there when it counts. I'm sure you've seen that for yourself. She's someone who can easily tunnel vision and get herself embroiled in trouble, so I try to keep certain things from her. But, she can see right through me... She's too sharp.
- Yumemizuki MizukiAbout Yumemizuki Mizuki
Ah, she left a very positive impression. When she first arrived in Natlan, I heard that she had a great deal of interest in our hot springs and spent quite some time studying their properties. But, it wasn't for profit. She was interested in their role in improving mental health. Such a pure cause deserved our support and respect.
Speaking of which... Is it true that the current Archon of Inazuma enjoys hot springs as well? If that's the case, I believe I've found a good starting point for our next conversation.
- IansanAbout Iansan: Being Targeted
A lot of people underestimated Iansan during her first few Pilgrimages after receiving her Ancient Name, and singled her out during the team stage as an easy target. Even though she never lost, the constant challengers drained her stamina and affected her ranking, which only made people more likely to target her...
- IansanAbout Iansan: Proving Yourself
My advice to her was this — people are less likely to mess with someone whose strength is undeniable, so all she needed to do was to prove it. Well, she decided to do just that... by challenging me in the arena, hahaha. Yeah, I definitely didn't see that coming! In the end, she put up quite the fight, and no one underestimated her again.
- VaresaAbout Varesa
During the Pilgrimage, I cover all the expenses at the Weary Inn, and without fail, there's always an order for a party tray for eighty. I used to assume it was someone ordering for a large group of friends, but as it turns out... Varesa ordered it all for herself.
- IfaAbout Ifa
The truly great doctors often possess vast medical knowledge as well as great communication skills. And, when the patient and the doctor do not speak the same language, observation and empathy become even more important. That's why Ifa can make friends with just about anyone.
Suffice it to say, if someone is on bad terms with Ifa — human or saurian — I doubt the problem lies with him, haha.
- The CaptainAbout The Captain
For him, I suspect the past five hundred years felt endless. When someone is deprived of death, life becomes a journey with no end, and the human spirit easily grows weary. And yet, he managed to seize the only chance of victory to arrive at the end he sought all along. I have great respect for warriors like him.
- Traveler & PaimonAbout Us: Fighting Side By Side
A plan is a reliable guide, but it's not an unchangeable or divine decree. Five hundred years ago, I could never have anticipated your arrival. But, after meeting you, I knew factoring you into my plan would be worth it. Judging from the outcome, choosing to fight by your side was unequivocally the right choice.
- Traveler & PaimonAbout Us: Ancient Names
You may not have realized this, but your ancient name, Tumaini, will have a significant impact on Natlan for years to come. When future generations speak this name, they will think about this battle and the efforts of all our heroes. Our names — Tumaini and Kiongozi — are now linked and will live on in perpetuity.
- VentiAbout Haborym
This world sure is cruel, forcing generation upon generation of human heroes to become cannon fodder in the fight against the darkness. But, under Mavuika's leadership, they achieved a truly god-like feat... Hehe, starting with "her," I suppose the Natlanese have always been like that. Ah, right! I heard Mavuika likes to drink! Are you thinking what I'm thinking...?
- ZhongliAbout Haborym
Natlan's long history of struggle fueled its warriors to overcome the Abyss and transcend fate to forge a new future. Behind this triumph stands a leader who wields both time and history as her weapons, with a level of strength that rivals the gods. She is impressive indeed.
- Raiden ShogunAbout Haborym
When I arrived in Khaenri'ah five hundred years ago, I saw a battlefield of scorched earth on the level of Musoujin Gorge. The fury of the Pyro Archon... that was said to be the cause. Now, I have the opportunity to meet that human once again... Perhaps you could introduce me? We are both warriors. It would be nice to find a spacious place to engage in a practical exchange.
- NahidaAbout Haborym
The Abyss manifests its power in a manner that is most devastating to the place in question. In Sumeru, it was forbidden knowledge. In Natlan, it was monstrous creatures. Our experience combatting the Abyss is inapplicable to Natlan for that very reason, but I still regret that I was unable to offer aid. Thankfully, the crisis has now been resolved, and Mavuika said many Natlanese are planning to visit Sumeru. I plan to welcome them with open arms!
- NeuvilletteAbout the Pyro Archon
The Pyro Archon triumphed over the Abyss by leveraging rules and legacy — a truly commendable feat. Yet, holding an Authority seized from the dragons remains an unpardonable sin. I recognize, however, that Natlan has experienced great suffering, so I am in no hurry to act. Hm? You claim that historical records describe the battle against Xbalanque as a formal duel, and the victim's family was treated fairly? Complicated indeed, but a worthwhile consideration nonetheless...
- KachinaAbout the Pyro Archon
I never could have dreamed that the Pyro Archon herself would one day call me a hero of Natlan... She's the idol of every warrior in our land, so being recognized by her is like... *sniffle* I just get overwhelmed every time I think about it, sorry... *sniffle* Sorry, sorry! I shouldn't have started crying...
- MualaniAbout Mavuika
The Pyro Archon is the most respected figure in all of Natlan. I really admire her, not only because she's the Pyro Archon, but because... she looks super cool when she surfs!
I've challenged her to a race before, actually... Huh? You wanna know who was faster? In that case, let's race, and I'll tell you once you beat me!
- KinichAbout Mavuika
For most of my life, I've been getting others to pay a price. Then, the Pyro Archon used the Ode of Resurrection to bring me back from the Night Kingdom, and suddenly I was the one paying the price... Only then did I finally understand it from both sides. To the stronger party, the "price" is a bargaining chip, and to the weaker party, it's a sign of what's at stake. What matters is whether you have the courage to make the gamble.
- XilonenAbout Mavuika
Mavuika has approached me with quite a few ridiculous commissions.
For example, she wanted me to make her a heat-resistant sword that could withstand her flames and wouldn't melt in her hands. Oh yeah, she also asked me if I could make her a special pair of sunglasses that would let her better see enemies through the flames in combat...
But the most bizarre request was that bike of hers... At the time, she would keep coming to the workshop to talk about it and insist that I make her a phlogiston-powered vehicle. She even shoved a bunch of design schematics in front of me, and yeah, who even knows where she got those... I eventually couldn't take it anymore and gave in. It took me three whole months to complete it. I heard she's been driving it through the Natlan wilderness and that no one can stop her... So yeah...
Compared to all of that, I'd say forging an Ancient Name for an outlander is really a relatively reasonable task.
- ChascaAbout Mavuika
Some people compare me to the Pyro Archon because of my track record in the Pilgrimage. It's a meaningless comparison. If the Pilgrimage was a tree, and I was a vulture on the highest branch, then the Pyro Archon would be the sun in the sky... The stronger you get, the more you appreciate the sheer size of the gulf between you and her. I just won a few championships — she's the champion of an entire era.
But at least being on top with a clear view of the sky means I can see exactly how high I want to fly from here.
- OroronAbout Mavuika
I didn't really know the Pyro Archon before all this.
I mean, I knew of her, but I didn't KNOW know her, you know? I used to think of her like a totem engraved with the word "strength," like a symbol of total power and control. But, it never went deeper than that, so doubt started to creep in.
Now that I know her better, I feel grateful, but I'm also a little disappointed in myself... She seems so sure of her purpose. She has a fire inside her and knows exactly why it burns, so she won't ever let the flames go out. I want that... I want to be someone who can help Natlan.
Anyway, so there's that, and um... I also noticed her eating a lot of leafy vegetables at the victory feast. When I asked her about it, she said she likes to keep a balanced diet. Kinda surprised me somehow. I guess she's more mindful of the little things than I expected.
- CitlaliAbout Mavuika
Heh, Mavuika... *ahem* I mean, the Archon came to talk to me the other day. It wasn't until I was eating snacks in the middle of the night that I realized she was basically bragging the whole time! There's an ancient saying from another land that goes, "Saints are humble until you ask them about their duty — that's when their pride stands tall." I think that fits her perfectly.
- Yumemizuki MizukiAbout Mavuika
The Pyro Archon? Hm, how should I put it... Lady Mavuika is the kind of person who shines so bright, just laying eyes on her is enough to warrant sunglasses. Like the actual sun, she has a way of burning away haze and illuminating darkness, even with a simple handshake.
...Hm? Have I ever tasted one of her dreams? No, no, no, no, no... I wouldn't dare. She let me try once, but stepping into her dream was like jumping into a volcano, or choking on ash. All I could do was cough...
Perhaps my youkai powers simply aren't strong enough yet...
- IansanAbout Mavuika
Because of the childhood I had, I don't like relying on other people or needing their protection. But when Mavuika is around, even I feel comfortable letting her take the lead. To be clear, that's not because she's the leader and I'm intimidated by her. Quite the opposite. It's because I trust her as a close friend. Following her just feels right... almost instinctive, like moving towards the light when you're surrounded by darkness.
- VaresaAbout Mavuika
I heard that the plates Mavuika uses on her barbell lifts are five times the weight of her flamestrider! And that she uses ten plates minimum just as a warmup... I also heard a rumor that she can lift a boulder the size of a Long-Necked Rhino with just two fingers! If anyone else was crazy strong like that, I'm sure I'd be too self-conscious to lift weights in front of them. But with Mavuika, it's different... I find the sound of her voice so reassuring, and the look in her eyes is so inspiring and encouraging. It makes me want to push myself as hard as I possibly can every single day. Sure, I may never catch up to her, but that's no excuse to give up. I'm gonna believe in myself, and be the best Varesa I can be!
- IfaAbout Mavuika
The Pyro Archon gave me a ride once when I had to get to an emergency visit. Bro, it was so crazy. We get there, my head's still spinning at a million miles an hour, and somehow, I have to patch up this injured saurian... I pulled it off, much to my own surprise. I guess sometimes we don't know our own potential until we're pushed out of our comfort zone.
- VarkaAbout Mavuika
Whether as a human or as a god, the Pyro Archon is a formidable warrior worthy of respect. If I'd been born in Natlan, I wonder if I'd have had the chance to cross blades with her while she was still human... Hmm, but then I wouldn't be able to protect Mondstadt, would I? No, that wouldn't do... *sigh* I suppose it's just as well.
- Traveler & PaimonAbout the Pyro Archon...
Paimon: So it turns out they use this Pilgrimage to select the Pyro Archon!
Paimon: If Paimon was allowed to compete, maybe even she'd have a shot at becoming the Pyro Archon.
Traveler: Heh... That's the spirit, Paimon.
Paimon: Hey now, don't you underestimate Paimon! After all the gods we've come face-to-face with, you'd better believe Paimon's picked up a few of their signature moves!
Traveler: ...Like what?
Paimon: Like... A Buoyant Breeze, Slow-Cooked Bamboo Shoot Soup, Halvamazd, Pour la Justice...
Traveler: Ohh... you mean their signature dishes.
Paimon: Exactly! They should totally add a cook-off stage to the Pilgrimage! Once everything's settled down in Natlan, of course.
Paimon: Paimon can't wait to get a taste of the Pyro Archon's cooking!
