A Customs Study of Hilichurls: Vol. 3

A study by Mondstadt ecologist and "laureate poet of Hilichurlian" Jacob Musk on Hilichurl social customs. This volume seeks the mysterious solitary ones among Hilichurls.

Mysterious Solitaries

Among Hilichurl communities there also exist such mysterious giants. They have huge, strong bodies and can control the elements to enhance their own ability—for example, using elements to protect themselves, or to strengthen brute force in combat, making themselves invincible.

These powerful members are reverently called "Lawa" by other Hilichurls of the tribe; by this writer's guess, the word can probably be explained as "king" or "chieftain." But in fact, within Hilichurl tribes they do not seem to rule as leaders or command tribal activity; they prefer to come and go alone, avoiding the reverent and worshipful gazes of other Hilichurls.

Ordinary adventurers rarely meet these giants. Even experienced veteran adventurers, when exploring places where they may appear, must carefully weigh the risks they will face.
