Lantern Rite 2025 is well underway in Genshin Impact, with many Travelers having already completed the associated story quests. Now is the time to revisit Hu Tao’s conviction in the cutscene animations ‘Crimson Bouquet‘ & ‘Butterfly’s Embrace‘. If you haven’t finished the story yet, you might want to skip them for now to avoid spoilers.
The event is still underway, so don’t miss out on the chance to get a free Liyue 4-star and a free Xiangling skin!
“As Yun Jin said, “The Sanctification of Tao Dou” was performed as promised. But what people are unaware of is that the stage is situated atop the Seven-and-Eight-Gates Array. “Live in life, and die in death”… All calamities shall draw to a close with the final curtain call.”
Hu Tao played an important enough role in Lantern Rite 2025 that it almost can be called her Story Quest part 2. Not only did we learn more about her and her family, we also got to see her serious side, ready to sacrifice for the greater good.
“When ensnared within the bounds of an array, one must unravel it by the very means through which it was woven. I still haven’t heard the full Hilitune. One day, I’ll have to ask her to share it with me.”
