After using and summoning the Serenitea Pot, you can interact with it and enter the abode within.
You can also use and summon the pot while you are within its confines. Interacting with the Serenitea Pot in this state will allow you to leave it.
You can also directly open the map interface and fast travel to any of the Teleport Waypoints to immediately leave the Serenitea Pot.
Teapot Spirit
A spirit that lives inside the teapot. It is said that she was created by the adepti themselves. She looks after many matters within the realm, serving as a butler of sorts.
Trust Rank
As you create more furnishings for the first time, the teapot spirit’s Trust in you will increase. Accumulate Trust to increase your Trust Rank.
Increasing Trust Rank will unlock features for the Serenitea Pot or allow you to obtain various rewards.
Adeptal Energy
The amount of Adeptal Energy within the realm will gradually increase along with the number of furnishings placed.
Once a new Adeptal Energy Rank is reached, the realm’s output will also increase.

II. New Characters
5-Star Character “Dance of the Shimmering Wave” Eula (Cryo)
Vision: Cryo
Weapon: Claymore
The Spindrift Knight, a scion of the old aristocracy, and the Captain of the Knights of Favonius Reconnaissance Company. The reason for which a descendant of the ancient nobles might join the Knights remains a great mystery in Mondstadt to this very day.
Tapping Eula’s Elemental Skill “Icetide Vortex” deals Cryo DMG and provides Eula with the Grimheart effect. Holding her Elemental Skill consumes all the stacks of Grimheart and deals AoE Cryo DMG to opponents in front of her. When the Grimheart stacks are consumed, surrounding opponents will have their Physical RES and Cryo RES decreased. Each consumed stack of Grimheart will be converted into an Icewhirl Brand that deals Cryo DMG to nearby opponents.
Eula’s Elemental Burst “Glacial Illumination” deals AoE Cryo DMG and creates a Lightfall Sword that follows her around. After this, when Eula’s own Normal Attack, Elemental Skill, and Elemental Burst deal DMG to opponents, they will charge the Lightfall Sword. Once its duration ends, the Lightfall Sword will descend and explode violently, dealing Physical DMG that scales on the number of energy stacks the Lightfall Sword has accumulated.
*”Dance of the Shimmering Wave” Eula (Cryo) will be available in a future event wish.
4-Star Character “Wise Innocence” Yanfei
Vision: Pyro
Weapon: Catalyst
A well-known legal adviser active in Liyue Harbor. A brilliant young lady in whose veins runs the blood of an illuminated beast.
Yanfei’s Normal Attack has a Scarlet Seal effect. While Scarlet Seals are present, Yanfei’s Stamina consumption is decreased. A Charged Attack consumes all Scarlet Seals, with the AoE and DMG of the attack increasing according to the amount of Scarlet Seals consumed.
Yanfei’s Elemental Skill “Signed Edict” deals AoE Pyro DMG. Hitting opponents with the flames grants Yanfei the maximum number of Scarlet Seals.
Yanfei’s Elemental Burst “Done Deal” deals AoE Pyro DMG, granting Yanfei the maximum number of Scarlet Seals and applying the Brilliance effect to her. While Brilliance is in effect, Yanfei’s Charged Attack DMG is increased and she is granted a Scarlet Seal at fixed intervals.
*In the event wish “Gentry of Hermitage,” “Wise Innocence” Yanfei (Pyro) will receive a huge drop-rate boost!

An enormous dragon as ancient as the mountains themselves.
In an age that has all but faded from memory, he stood shoulder to shoulder with one who ruled over a harbor of stone.
