Who is Nukvah in Genshin Impact?
Story spoilers for Chapter VII, Act VI, A Yesterday Sent From Beyond.
Nukvah is the entity that speaks to the Traveler and the other visitors inside Celestia. It calls the system they have entered the Divine Throne, an integrated computational array. When its central database fails to respond, Nukvah switches to its default mode and tells the group why they were summoned.
Where do you meet Nukvah?
HoYoverse lists Adventure Rank 18 and completion of Chapter VII, Act V, Hour of Ruin, as the requirements for Act VI. Follow A Yesterday Sent From Beyond to the late-quest objective Go through the gate. The next objective is Talk to Nukvah.
What does Nukvah say about resetting Teyvat?
Nukvah says its default program calls for Teyvat to be restored to an initial state. It says the trials earned a suspension of the Holy Soil phenomenon, but still gives the group 42 days and asks each representative to choose one Vision bearer to preserve. The 42 days are part of the story dialogue.
That is why the group objects even after the trials succeed. In Nukvah’s plan, preserving a record of a civilization can happen alongside ending that civilization. The Traveler’s objection is about protecting the people and world they know.
What does the scene reveal about allogenes?
Nukvah says the chosen Vision bearers will guide the next cycle of civilization. When Venti asks about Vennessa, Nukvah identifies a light marking where she is stored. This gives Venti’s earlier explanation of ascension a new context and shows what Celestia means by preservation in this scene.
