Lor Genshin Impact 2.0: Why is Ayaka called the Inazuma Heron and what does the Kamisato Clan crest mean?
The lore of Genshin Impact is very well thought out and detailed, Inazuma and its characters are no exception. When it comes to a new region, its close connection to Japanese culture becomes obvious.
In this article, we will talk about what the name Aya means in Japanese culture and why she is called "heron". Let's go!
The Connection of Aya and Heron in Genshin Impact
白鷺姫君 translates to "White/Ine Heron Princess". Firstly, Aya has been called heron (白鷺 sirasagi) many times, and even her constellation has the shape of a bird. There is a saying that sirasagi are messengers of the gods, and many shrines, such as 白鷺神社 (Sirasagi Shrine), worship them, depicting birds on various attributes.
The meaning of "messenger of the gods" perfectly describes Aya's character and purpose. In any case, the bird really embodies her elegance and beauty!
The Meaning of the Kamisato Clan Emblem
On Aya's fan and on her chest is visible the emblem of the Kamisato clan - Camellia.
Ironically, samurai hate camellias because the flower falls with a loud and heavy sound, just like a severed head on the battlefield.
