Nahida, the Dendro Archon, does indeed forget Rukkhadevata, as she has altered the memories of Teyvatians, including her own, to erase Rukkhadevata from existence in the timeline. This significant event occurred at the end of the Sumeru Archon Quest, resulting in Nahida instinctively feeling that there was someone before her, although she cannot recall Rukkhadevata explicitly.
Introduction to Nahida and Rukkhadevata
Nahida, also known as Lesser Lord Kusanali, is the current Dendro Archon in the world of Teyvat. She came into existence after the previous Archon, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, disappeared while fulfilling her duty to protect Irminsul during the Cataclysm. This transition has raised many questions among fans, particularly regarding Rukkhadevata‘s existence and Nahida’s memories of her.
Understanding the Impact of Rukkhadevata’s Erasure
The erasure of Rukkhadevata from the timeline has significant implications for the world of Teyvat and its inhabitants. As the only individual who still remembers Greater Lord Rukkhadevata is the Traveler, a Descender, it is clear that Nahida’s actions have had far-reaching consequences.
