SPOILERS FOR HSR 2.1!!!!

Okay so I saw this post on tiktok about how Ena, the Aeon of Order, who takes the form of a giant eye and a puppet has the same eye as Aventurine, and presumably the other Avgin. And as we know, Ena was consumed by Xipe the Aeon of Harmony. In that case Aventurine, the VERY LAST true pathstrider of Order, going up against the family who are followers of the Harmony is like a last stance against the Harmony for what it has done to him and the Avgin people. Now we already know after joining the IPC he begins to tread on path of Preservation but from what we know now after the ending of the 2.1 trailblaze mission, he is now presumably attempting to “train” under the Nihility. Early on in their final conversation, Acheron tells him “Under the watchful eye of Nihility, We momentarily linger here (in the Nihility), before moving on to our own paths”. Acheron herself states that the Nihility is a path unlike others, that IX never casts its gaze on anyone, so it’s possible that pathstriders of the Nihility eventually find new paths, which is very unlike other paths where we see people dedicating their entire lives to it (Example, the mara-struck followers of the Abundance).

So then my Theory is, Aventurine will now momentarily seek the Nihility, believing that it will teach him his purpose, before moving on to follow the Order again and finally be at peace with himself as the last Avgin. No longer needing to hide behind the facade of the high and mighty gambler within the Ten Stonehearts, ending his arc and involvement in Penacony by proving to the family that they (The Harmony) cannot diminish him (And the Order) so easily and that he, being blessed by the godess herself, has been sent to take some form of revenge on the Family (hence the threats to bring Penacony to absolute chaos and destruction). This may come with his further character growth in 2.2/2.3 onward but regardless I’m very excited to see where his story leads!

I AM NOT OKAY DEAR GOD IT'S BEEN HOURS AND I AM STILL WEEPING

his gentle face??? the soft, delicate, kind voice and his eyes visibly softening even more and the real, genuine little smile as he blesses his younger self with his sister's voice in the background.

hoyo why do you hurt us like this it's going to consume my thoughts for DAYS now

#gnawing at the bars of my enclosure rn #the animation is impeccable #brought me to tears instantly #his arc was so GOOD i was attached to him before but holy crap #honkai star rail #hsr #aventurine #hsr aventurine #aventurine hsr #i am so attached to characters who really just never got to grow up and act one way but really are very gentle and compassionate #and just never were allowed to show it #he's been through so much and is still actually able to be nice which really says a lot abt him #the only thing that might have made me cry more were the convo with acheron when he asks why humans even exist #and the scene where kakavasha aventurine and future aventurine were all standing together #actual peak fiction. will never recover.
