Genshin Impact: HoYoverse releases emotional Nahida Character Teaser, greets Dendro Archon on her birthday

Genshin Impact - Nahida Character Teaser - Nahida wakes up

The birthday of the Dendro Archon Nahida, also known as Lesser Lord Kusanali, is marked by the Sabzeruz Festival in Genshin Impact. When translated to the real world’s date and time, it was previously leaked to be on October 27.

This date was recently confirmed as HoYoverse released the Nahida Character Teaser earlier today, October 27. The video is aptly titled Nahida: Happy Birthday, featuring the Dendro Archon on her special day.

New Nahida Character Teaser gets fans emotional

The new Nahida Character Teaser starts off with the Archon talking about having a dream that it was her birthday. In this dream, the Knight of Flowers and his retainers found her. Then, they took her to meet her people and celebrated the Sabzeruz Festival.

This “dream,” however, did not occur once. While it started happily and innocently, Nahida can be seen waking up from the dream more exhausted than the previous ones.

The “Knight of Flowers and his retainers” in these dreams would also change. In the first dream, the “Knight” was Vihar, the original Farris, Knight of Flowers, who offered the 5 boxes of candy during the Sabzeruz Festival in the game.

In the second one, it was the Traveler. After this, the succeeding dreams became darker as they depicted the Akademiya sages as the “Knight,” taking and apparently locking up Nahida in the Sanctuary of Surasthana.

This recurrence is reminiscent of the samsara of the Sabzeruz Festival in Chapter III: Act II (The Morn a Thousand Roses Brings) of the Archon Quests and shows how the Akademiya sages hold the Dendro Archon in low regard.

With this, fans expressed how they got emotional from the new Nahida Character Teaser. One Twitter user said:

First time a character teaser makes me tear up. I’ll pray for a happy ending for Nahida *folded hands emoji*
