What role does fire play in Pyro nation Natlan?
As explained in the Genshin Impact Version 5.0 Special Program, fire has a unique and practical significance in Natlan.
The nation itself contains a widely present substance called Phlogiston. It is an advanced form of the Pyro element unique to Natlan. It is a strategic resource used in battles and exploration.
Fire symbolizes the indomidable spirit of the spirit of the people here, like how we saw the ever-burning flame in the Stadium of Sacred Fire. Heroes and legends in Natlan’s history have passed on their spirit and strength.
It is known as the “Nation of War” because it has faced various crises in its history and together have stood together to resist various forces that have threatened their homeland.
Through these battles, heroes emerged, carved into obsidian as “Ancient Names,” a core cultural concept for the people. Deeds and the spirit of heroes are passed down, where generations after can benefit and grow under the guidance of these Ancient Names.
The element of war is also reflected in the six tribes, where they compete against each other to select the strongest warriors. Each tribe views war differently, which Genshin Impact players will be able to experience fully in version 5.0’s storyline.
