Story Teaser – Flavors of the World
The passing of time is marked by meals as we drink and make merry, blessed by nature’s grace. From past to present, the years go by in the blink of an eye.
Smoke of hearths brings us joy and domesticity paints a picture of everyday life. Delicate clouds chase the moon as the boat floats on the river of time.
Who is the Stove God?
Guoba was originally a god known as Marchosius, the God of the Stove and Patron God of the Soil. He was among the gods who resided at the Guili Assembly, alongside Morax and Guizhong.
After the nation’s destruction during the Archon War, he was among the survivors who went on to establish Liyue Harbor. However, following a series of calamities, he used up his power to vitalize the land, greatly reducing his physical size and intelligence.
The Story of the Stove God/Guoba
The god Marchosius was one of the gods who helped the Guili Assembly flourish thousands of years ago. During the Archon War, the Guili Assembly was destroyed by a battle that resulted in a massive flood. Guoba and the adepti accompanied Morax and their people to what is now Liyue Harbor.
Centuries later, Marchosius would sacrifice his power and, by extension, his life to save Liyue from calamities and plagues. Leaving Morax and Madame Ping with his recipes and secrets of the flame, he retired to the mountains and fell into a deep slumber with both his physical body and intellect greatly reduced. He slept for several centuries, and over time the people of Liyue merged the legends of the God of the Stove into that of Morax’s.
One day, Xiangling stumbled upon a mysterious shrine while searching for Violetgrass. The girl, tired from her journey, fell asleep after snacking on a piece of Chili-Mince Cornbread Bun; she left the rest of the cornbread on the offering table, intending to eat it later. By the time she woke up, she found a strange creature instead — and he had eaten her cornbread. Undeterred, Xiangling gave him some more food, and he thereafter began following her around. She named him Guoba ( which means scorched rice), after her favorite childhood snack. Unbeknownst to her, she had found one of Liyue’s ancient gods.
