Keqing

Keqing (5★)

The Yuheng of the Liyue Qixing. Keqing has much to say about Rex Lapis's unilateral approach to policymaking in Liyue — but in truth, gods admire skeptics such as her quite a lot.

Skills

Normal Attack: Yunlai Swordsmanship
Stellar Restoration
"Humans are like moths, endlessly chasing the flame we call gods and adepti. But this light that I have here is my own."
Starward Sword
The swiftest technique in Keqing's personal arsenal is fast enough to bring stars crashing down.
