Point, but we still have three more countries to cross, and possibly Khaenriah after that, so I'm definitely going with "they're not aiming to have people solve that yet."

*nods* There are aspects of the lore that I still only sort of get, but (modern!) worship in Genshin seems like a pretty chill thing overall, both from the perspective of the people doing it and from the archons'. No one seems to be feeling pressured here? The gods don't feel threatened or diminished if their lands prosper without them, and a number of them retired to do something else. But that might have to do with their age and the high regard they used to enjoy, because it seems to work ... differently for Nahida.

I was assuming that if we were all in a "spoilers"-warned genshin secret, people who would not be bothered by more of them, but I guess that's not necessarily so.

I thought the quest(s) with the Aranaras were long but well written. Wishing you luck with that. There was one that I had lots of feelings about, but anyway. You'll see.

It hadn't occurred to me that the nails might have fallen where they did in part because of the trees, but now that you pointed it out that sounds plausible. You're probably looking very apprehensively at Sumeru City, if that's right, though. Looking forward to finding out what the vishaps have to do with it, when you write that out!

Now I'm going to have to go AFK for a while. Will try to check back and read anything new sometime before the next secret posts, but I may not get around to replying.

AYRT - Exactly, this is what I meant too.

Hmm... true, but also, they don't seem to be particularly interested in this game, whatever it is. Venti doesn't want to visit Celestia, Zhongli is like "*shrug* fired? guess my job here is done", Raiden literally said "fuck it all", etc. As I said, haven't finished Sumeru AQ part 3 yet but Nahida seems to be concerned about getting stronger and becoming a proper Archon for reasons we are yet to see? They call her a lesser deity for a reason I feel.

Honestly I kinda dropped the Aranara quest for the time being only because I had trouble with the timed mission and was too lazy to check videos on how to do that. But it is pretty interesting so far!

If you think about Tsurumi it makes even more sense. No credits for this theory, though, it's floating around, or has been for a couple of months. ... but yeah, you're right, unless they're not aiming nails at big trees anymore because it's getting corrupted from below since the war-that-started-500-years-ago / cataclysm rather than above (is my belief). For me Sumeru expanded on an idea I personally had, that sometimes "mountains" are really just "big trees" which I believe is the case for Sal Vindagnyr's as a civilization that thrived under a big tree but also had a very tall mountain which people supposedly climbed for enlightenment.
On the below / above thing again, before, food supposedly came from the sky, but maybe at some point crops started feeding the people. Crops come from below. So .. personally I feel like we still have a lot to find out on the below/above and dimensions/levels and firmament stuff. Thanks! If I have free time today I will try to do that, lol.

Don't worry, and sorry I had to leave too.

"They call her a lesser deity for a reason I feel."

"Lesser Lord" is just a reference to her being small. A more direct translation of her name is like "Little Lucky Grass King". It wasn't really with the intent of them calling her "Lesser" as a pejorative, though considering how the Akademiya otherwise treated her it's easy to see it that way.
