Diluc Ragnvindr

Diluc, owner of the Dawn Distillery and controlling half of Mondstadt's wine business, effectively controls the flow of information, gossip and money. In a sense he is the king of Mondstadt without a crown

The air in Mondstadt always smells of alcohol. If you follow that scent, you will inevitably come to the Dawn Distillery. Below the distillery's name, proudly carved on a wooden plaque, is a short phrase that reads: "Keeping true to tradition." Most people think that this phrase symbolizes the wine remaining true to its original flavor. But to the old knights, it is a reminder of the long history of mutual support between the distillery and the city. The winery hosts celebrations from time to time. During the festivities, there are always enthusiastic fathers who want to make the young, lonely owner of the winery their son-in-law, introducing him to their eager daughters. This usually ends with the other guests mocking: "Thank the Archons that Mr. Diluc remains married to his winery! We can always be sure that our glasses will not run out of wine." No matter who or what comes his way, Diluc's reactions are always impeccable. Diluc is an extraordinary gentleman in all aspects.

Diluc's father was Master Crepus, the previous owner of the distillery. It was his dream for Diluc to become an honorary knight and protect the freedom of Mondstadt. Young Diluc lived up to his father's expectations and passed all the knightly tests, becoming an honorary member of the Ordo Favonius. As a son of the Ragnvindr family, he was prepared for this since childhood. In a relatively short time of service, Diluc was able to earn the title of the youngest officer of the order. The people of Mondstadt gradually got to know the young, passionate and courageous officer of the Ordo Favonius through his countless missions and patrols. No matter what the task required of him, he always maintained honor and composure. Despite all the difficulties, his sword led him to the front lines. The praise he received from the townspeople and his comrades inspired him. But the greatest praise was: "Good work. I am proud of you, son." His father's words lit a fire in his heart and served as his greatest motivation. This "faith" burned brightly in the heart of the young knight.

After Diluc retired and abandoned his God's Eye, he left the household to his head maid, Adelinde, and left Mondstadt. During his journey across the Seven Kingdoms, Diluc found clues to the mystery he had sworn to uncover. They all led to a massive organization called Fatui, who secretly created counterfeit God's Eyes and called them "Eyes of Corruption." It was their power that had killed Crepus. What were his father's motives for owning such a blasphemous thing? Did he really want to do good with it? Knowing that he might never know the answer to that question, Diluc still refused to back down without knowing the whole truth. Like a hawk in the desert, he began his hunt for the truth and followed where the evidence led him. Despite his battle-scarred body, his heart and soul remained steadfast and unwavering. What did not kill him made him stronger. However, his actions attracted the attention of the Eleven Harbingers, the leaders of the Fatui, who began to watch him from the shadows. The numerous strongholds of the organization that Diluc had ravaged forced them to act. Diluc's life was saved from certain death by a mysterious observer from the north, who was part of a vast underground information network. He claimed to have been watching Diluc for some time and agreed with his methods. After looking death in the eye, Diluc reflected on his actions, fueled by old anger. After careful consideration, he decided to join this underground network. Just as with the Ordo Favonius, Diluc was completely dedicated to the work and, thanks to his talents and skills, quickly rose to the top of the organization. The underground network was made up of volunteers who willingly gave up their reputation, status, and even their name. Can his faith, damaged by the death of his father,
