Possibly in the Final Act of the Story

Dainsleif's Element Currently Unknown

Dainsleif doesn't possess any Vision, nor does he possess an Element familiar to Teyvat's current Elements. It's possible that he may use other Elements unique from the Seven, as Khaenri'ah itself was godless.

Dainsleif Story Summary

Originally From Khaenri'ah

Unlike the other nations, Khaenri'ah was godless. It is for the very fact that their civilization had flourished and was able to create powerful machinery like the Field Tiller, and advance their alchemical expertise.

However, this was also the catalyst of their own destruction, as the gods (presumably Celestia) deemed Khaenri'ah too ambitious. Dainsleif implores the Traveler to be wary of the gods because of this very fact.

The Twilight Sword

Dainsleif was the Twilight Sword, or the royal guard that sought to protect Khaenri'ah 500 years ago. However, he failed his duty to do so. Because of this, he was laid a curse of immortality, as he watched his own people turn into the monsters of the Abyss Order.

Hunting Down the Abyss Order

It is Dainsleif's personal mission to oppose the Abyss Order, although his motives for doing so are still unclear. It's possible that he wants to save the people he was tasked to protect before from falling deeper into evil.

Traveled with the Abyss Twin

Dainsleif had been traveled with the Abyss Twin for a considerable number of years. Although it hasn't been confirmed yet how long exactly he traveled with them, it's clear before the Cataclysm that befell Khaenri'ah happened, Dainsleif traveled across Teyvat with the Abyss Twin.

Suffering Erosion

Due to the curse of immortality from Celestia, Dain is suffering from erosion, in the form of memory loss. According to Dain, he remember things in the past every now and then, but he hasn't completely regained anything that would explain pretty well what happened during the Cataclysm.

Masked Dahrian Swordsman

According to Zurvan during The Hymn of Tir Yazad quest, she fought side-by-side a Masked Dahrian Swordsman, with golden hair, whose body is half of a monster. Although Zurvan initially noted the swordsman had no monstrosity inside him.

This was alluded to be Dainsleif, who eventually had to leave with another individual said to have golden hair like his!

Dainsleif World Quest Appearances

Bough Keeper: Dainsleif

Dainsleif makes his in-game story debut in the Prelude Bough Keeper: Dainsleif. He first meets with the Traveler in Angel's Share, where in exchange for 500 mora and three questions, he'd accept to adventure with them.

Dainsleif, Traveler, and Paimon make their way outside Mondstadt to find traces of the Abyss Order. Remarking the significance of finding the Abyss Herald, the band travels around Temple of the Falcon and Wolvendom, until they reach Stormterror's Lair.

During the last events of the Prelude Chapter, it was revealed that the events of the ''We Will Be Reunited'' story teaser intersected with the events of this quest. This connection is further evidenced by the arena in Stormterror's Lair, where the Traveler was seen fighting. Players can also see the Dandelion cameo on top of the mountain, and the Ruin Guard footprints.

Caribert

Dainsleif met once again with Traveler and Paimon in the nation of Knowledge, Sumeru. In Port Ormos, Dainsleif and Kaeya Alberich crossed each other's path, to which Dainsleif regarded the former with apprehension, being an Alberich—the bloodline of the Founder of the Abyss Order.

The gang then went to Avidya Forest, where Dainsleif mentioned of regaining a core memory about Khaenri'ah.

Bedtime Story

As with the previous Prologue Archon Quests, Dainsleif makes his appearance again dropping lore bombs, and immediately leaving afterwards. This time Dainsleif has revealed that his older brother Vedrfolnir, is one of the Five Sinners of Khaenri'ah.

The Five Sinners of Khaenri'ah are highly-esteemed individuals who managed to obtained world-shattering powers that they chose to keep for themselves instead of mitigating the Cataclysm 500 years ago.
