Background / History
Lumine’s central goal is to find her missing brother, Aether. In Mondstadt, Mu Yang reveals that Aether has ties to the Abyss Order and helped an Abyssal monster escape; this revelation drives Lumine to seek further answers about her brother’s actions and whereabouts. 9
Although initially guarded around the Fatui, Lumine comes to trust Mu Yang more than Childe after Mu Yang repeatedly aids her, protects her, and warns her about the Fatui’s involvement in Liyue’s crisis. 36 39
Her encounters with the Abyss remain deeply personal. Within the Chasm’s shifting space, she sees an unreachable image of Aether and recognizes it as an illusion, but reaffirms her intent to keep moving toward a future in which they can reunite. 281
