Okay so you guys know that Ixlel had that whole eldritch aura going on right?
And the description from the nameless artisan/Manqu:
Slowly and calmly she walked towards me, as if the fire were nothing more than a gentle spring breeze. Her face... I have never seen anything like it. Even the purest of crystals could not be fashioned into the likeness of such skin, nor could the purest of turquoise be carved into such eyes. Yet for reasons I cannot explain, that face, which should have been the very picture of beauty, was... so nauseatingly repulsive... Through those turquoise eyes, those pupils whose beauty was almost terrifying, I saw naught but endless, unfathomable darkness and void; a space that no language could describe, unlike anything I have ever seen in the brief few decades of my transient life.
- Artisan's memo (III)
So I thought, "Hmm, the other Dragonlords probably had this eldritch-ness going on. Even more so for their sire, Xiuhcoatl. Plus, there's already eldritch element in Natlan; that mf Gosoythoth that's inspired from Yog-Sothoth"
From there I was digging through the possible eldritch figure that could inspire Xiuhcoatl.
And well don't you look at that?
Yig, the Father of Serpents.
Disclaimer: I have yet to read H.P Lovecraft's works and I haven't dabble to much in eldritch fiction, so all my knowledge about this figure comes from the wikis. Also, for those who don't know, H.P Lovecraft was a massive racist-fuck, and it bleed to his works with many of the eldritch figures were seemingly inspired from indigenous deities/spirits. So tread his works with care.
Yig is a eldritch deity introduced in the book "The Curse of Yig" co-written by H.P Lovecraft and Zealia Bishop. He is "the snake-god of the central plains tribes," and "a shunned and feared object in central Oklahoma."
The story describes him as:
an odd, half-anthropomorphic devil of highly arbitrary and capricious nature. He was not wholly evil, and was usually quite well-disposed toward those who gave proper respect to him and his children, the serpents; but in the autumn he became abnormally ravenous, and had to be driven away by means of suitable rites.
The snake-god's chief quality was "a relentless devotion to his children," making it taboo to kill snakes. Those "who flouted him or wreaked harm upon his wriggling progeny" would suffer the "curse of Yig," in which the deity would "turn his victim, after suitable tortures, to a spotted snake."
In one of the expanded Cthulhu mythos (works that are written by people other than H.P Lovecraft), his mate is Coatlicue, which in the real-life mythology has many snake motives and is the mother of the sun god Huitzilopochtli, the moon goddess Coyolxauhqui, and the gods of the stars Centzon Huitznahua. And you know who's the creator of the in-game Huitzilopochtli right.
An in-story ethnologist stated that Yig is the dark prototype for the more benevolent Quetzalcoatl and Kukulkan (you see where I'm going.)
But this part is what I consider to be the most fascinating: Yig was also one of the two main gods (the other being Cthulhu) worshipped by the people of K'n-yan, a subterranean realm under a "sky" of glowing blue clouds similar to the Northern Lights, occupied by a hidden race of advanced prehistoric humanoids. They hailed from a planet much like Earth, the K'n-yanians were supposedly brought across space by Tulu, founding a vast and mighty civilisation. However, after the Mu continent sank, they sealed themselves away from the rest of the world. They blamed the "Space-devils" for the great sinking that "submerged the gods themselves, including great Tulu, who still lay prisoned and dreaming..." with the only human survivors being the space-devils' own agents.
K'n-Yan is the name of the author of "The Men of Lithin". And reading their history... doesn't they sound a bit similar to Khaenri'ah? Plus, this 'space-devils' is a bit similar to the Primordial One's coming. Defeating the original gods and then planted their own agents...
Huh, what if Nibelung is supposed to be Cthulhu? Being worshipped alongside Xiuhcoatl, and his murals showed up in Natlan. That also kinda explain why he looked similar to Xiuhcoatl in the murals?
Idk, I just want to share my discovery with you. In another note, kdnsjkskssnns "Father of Serpents" and fierce love for his children... my 'mama Xiuhcoatl' agenda isn't that far-fetched I guess!
Btw this is how Yig's children look like. Aren't they adorableđ

Ok so I feel incredibly stupid for not pressing on the icons but it tells us exactly what they are and from what I gathered we will be getting lore on obviously nod-Krai, fatui, the adventures guild, the knights of favonious, a snow fae that followed the first cryo archon, and a lot more.
I think before I start talking about some of my main thoughts, I should show the Nod-Krai teaser
Guys.. itâs so pretty. Seems like Hiisi Islands are gonna be one of the subregions in Nod-Krai and itâs so gorgeous. Someone tell the environment designers that they deserve a pat on the back (they deserve more)
Now, this insanity that I have no theories on currently. (There are more so please check out the official website, I couldnât fit them in this post cause I use the app which wonât let you post more then ten images)
Iâm genuinely lost on what they mean and the only two I could actually form some thoughts on are these two below:
The right one is definitely the fatui, no doubt about it but as for the left one; I think that can either be the Tsaritsa or someone related to her.
Genuinely I can not come up with much right now cause Im busy crying over natlan dragons but let me know any thoughts.

Og meme:
My fav part of that 5.5 saurian natlan event is when ajaw shows up while everyone is pretending to argue with each other and heâs like âoh boy! Weâre arguing? What fun! Haha yes! Let me get in on this!â But the entire cast just simultaneously senses this is an opportunity to rip into him like sharks smelling blood in the water so they all turn to look at him at the same time like this
