A not very complete or accurate summary of the Caribert quest: (beware, spoilers!)
Kaeya: ...and although it was tough, I went to therapy, and dealt with my family issues. It's nice to have it all worked out.
Traveler: good for you.
Dainsleif, appearing out of nowhere: yes, but did you know that your biological family *shocking and possibly traumatizing information*
Traveler: ...
Kaeya: *exasperated sigh* well, therapy, here we go again.
***
Traveler, walking out of the Unknown Sanctuary: the forest is haunted.
Eide: Excuse me?
Traveler, going back with more food and polished sword: the FOREST IS HAUNTED-
***
sometime later in Mondstadt:
Traveler: so we have good news and bad news about your adoptive and biological families. Where should we start?
Kaeya: good news?
Traveler: the relationship with your adoptive family is the healthy one-
Kaeya, eye twitching: oh boy...

MY 3.5 PREDICTIONS
About Caribert:
- Kaeya and Dain DO interact, but only for like 2 minutes. This interaction will reveal that they’ve actually never met each other before.
- Dainsleif will reveal that he was supposed to be a Schwanenritter, but deserted for whatever reason.
- More of Celestia’s crimes against humanity will be revealed.
- There WILL BE a new Khaenri’an NPC, but they will either day before the quest ends or will have been corrupted with the Abyss.
- When the hilichurl takes its mask off, its face will look alarmingly human. Like, almost human but there’s a specific uncanny valley effect.
- The Cryo Abyss Herald is actually completely irrelevant to the quest. Like, it’s just an enemy who shows up and then you fight it.
- Our sibling will show up, but only in a flashback or something to do with the mirror we pick up.
- It will be revealed that a Descender is leading the Abyss Order.
- it is NOT revealed how exactly our sibling’s fate is being obscured from Irminsul nor why they aren’t considered a descender.
About Windblume:
- Collei and Amber’s reunion will make me cry.
- Kaeya is not involved in any of it due to being in Caribert.
- Amber and Collei are the ‘main characters’ of this quest
- Cyno and Lisa interact, Tighnari and Albedo interact
- Diluc shows up for like 3 seconds to have a brief look of understanding with Collei and Cyno, then immediately leaves.
- We will play matchmaker between Timaeus and Ying’er.
- The ‘prophecy’ will be revealed to just be a trick of Venti’s to encourage people to have fun on Windblume.
- Either Varka or Alice will make a physical appearance, but not both. If it’s Varka, he will have a disappointingly twink-ish appearance and the community backlash will be enough that they will FINALLY FUCKING FINALLY make better and more diverse base models for characters. If it’s Alice, her boobs will be the size of watermelons and she’ll look like a Klee + Lisa hybrid. She’ll make a vague reference to Rukkhadevata, then laugh it off as if it was a joke because only WE REMEMBER RUKKHADEVATA EXISTS.
About my pulls:
- I will get Dehya within Day 1.
- I will get Cyno C2, but not C3.
- I will lose a 50/50 and get a Constellation rather than a new character (weeps in no Keqing or Diluc or Tighnari).
- My ‘Kaeya is a segment of Pierro’ bullshit will be definitely proven false, so I can properly classify it as an AU.
- I will finally go full Pepe Sylvia Mode about how Dehya’s kit was designed

SPOILERS FOR CARIBERT AND KAEYA'S LORE
*sad, sad sigh* so I suppose Kaeya can be. the Loom of Fate, or be very directly related to the operation. Because if he's the "last hope" of his homeland, and if he was left in Mond on purpose, and if Alberich senior really saw the salvation in the power of the Abyss sealed within a living being, and decided that the Loom of Fate will save/help them all...
Oh Kaeya. I'm sad to suspect you are a weapon of your homeland regardless of your own wishes.
