Episode Thirty-Five: The Bloodstained Knight

Ad Astra Travelers! Welcome to another episode of Tales of Teyvat: A Genshin Lore Podcast. Last week, we discussed the Gods of the Desert and we're still shaking out sand, and lore crumbs, from our shoes! We're hoping we'll get some more information on King Deshret's origins sometime soon. This week, we'll be discussing the Bloodstained Knight. After our hosts question who the mysterious Eula NPC is (and get pranked by learning of her rerun just days before this episode airs) and defensive builds for characters using the Bloodstained Chivalry artifact set, our hosts discuss Mondstadt's deep dark past. Our hosts map out the key players in the history of the Bloodstained Knights creation story, including his ex-aliases, including Roland and the White Knight. After we learn about his unfortunate path, trauma, and his constant search for justice, the hosts jump into one of their current favorite theories: That the Bloodstained Knight is Il Capitano, the Fatui Harbinger. Of course, a few other fun and new theories are thrown in the mix as well, listen in to find out all about Mondstadt's history and more!
