September Mid-Month Event
Welcome to Teyvat - a vast magical world of adventure.
It's time to sail onward to Inazuma, past the swirling storms that keep the island nation isolated, and into the political intrigue that has gripped the Land of Eternity for the past year.

Luckily, there's no need to bear with a ship journey through stormy seas. Forneus simply teleports everyone to Ritou, the port of call for foreigners in Inazuma, docking an illusory ship into the harbour. He cautions the Travelers before they disembark - Inazuma is distrustful of outsiders, and foreign customers will likely be charged with exorbitant prices by the locals. It will take time to earn the locals' trust.

It's not possible to leave Ritou... not conventionally, at least. Attempting to walk or sail to Narukami Island will lead to the guards turning you back.

Just like Mondstadt and Liyue, Forneus wants you to get a feel of Inazuman culture before the team ventures deeper into the nation. The atmosphere here is oppressive - there's a small coalition of foreign merchants based on the island, but they've fallen on hard times due to the lockdown. The Kanjou Commission, who oversee Ritou's affairs, have been abusing them with absurd tax rates and regulations, leading to its members falling into desperation. Locals comment on how they miss the flow of foreign goods and visitors, and that the rising prices of commodities are a constant headache.

However, what may be most interesting to you is the Vision Hunt Decree. The Raiden Shogun, the God of Eternity, has declared that all Visions in Inazuma be confiscated. This means that you cannot use your Vision-given powers freely in public, lest you blow your cover and be arrested by the Commission.

State of the World

Welcome to Inazuma, the Nation of Eternity. Just like in Mondstadt and Liyue, you can take commissions... from the International Trade Association this time, because the Adventurers' Guild is in Inazuma City. They desperately need help to uncover proof of the Kanjou Commission's extortion, so that they can appeal to the other Commissions and overturn the tax laws. Some members also need help running their stores until they can afford to put food on their plate after paying said tax laws. It's grim for the foreigners... and the situation will not change until someone changes the Raiden Shogun's mind. That someone will eventually have to be you.

An envoy from the Yashiro Commission will be here in two weeks to arrange everyone's passage to the other islands. For now, try to enjoy fantasy Japan... and don't get arrested. Your Vision's frame also seems to have changed, rendering it unrecognizable to any natives.
