Episode Fifty-Six: Azhdaha

Ad Astra Travelers! Welcome back to another episode of Tales of Teyvat: A Genshin Lore Podcast. Last week, we talked about the magical entities all throughout Teyvat, known as the Ley Lines. We’re waiting for Dainsleif to finally come back and give us more details on these curious balls of smoke.  This week, we’ll be talking about the ancient Earth Dragon and the Overlord of the Geovishaps, Azhdaha. To start, our hosts give a quick recap on what the original Dragon Sovereigns of Teyvat are and how dragons are born from Vishaps. After we get the basics down, we talk about the origins of Azhdaha, how erosion made him an angry old toad, and his relationship with Morax and the people of Liyue. Is Azhdaha the original Geo Sovereign? Is he just a replacement Vishap that grew into power? Or are the secrets of the Dragon Overlords something still buried beneath the rubble?Visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠talesofteyvat.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ to find a comprehensive lore sheet that provides visual aids and links to videos and important Genshin Impact Resources.
