Kaeya Story Summary

Background

Cavalry Captain Kaeya is quite approachable, at least when compared to his predecessor. He seems to know about everything happening in Mondstadt.
— From Ellino, a sightless bard

Kaeya Alberich is one of the few known characters from Khaenri'ah. Migrating to Mondstadt with his father as a child, Kaeya was left alone with a single mission - Serve Khaenri'ah's interests in Mondstadt.

Kaeya was adopted by Crepus Ragnvindr, the owner of the Dawn Winery and Diluc's Father, and was raised as Diluc's brother. Later on Kaeya would join the Knights of Favonius along side Diluc.

Kaeya is man of many secrets and believes the ends justify whatever means. Despite being a captain in the Knights of Favonius he is often described as shady, mysterious and speaks only half truths. Though, according to Mona, one day his secrets might catch up to him.

Kaeya and Diluc

Raised as brothers, Kaeya and Diluc were quite fond of each other when they were younger. However, the death of Crepus Ragnvindr changed their relationship drastically.

Distraught that he felt both liberation and grief at the death of his adoptive father, Kaeya decided to reveal the truth about his origins as an agent of Khaenri'ah to Diluc. The two brothers then fought each other which resulted in Kaeya receiving his Vision and a large rift forming between him and Diluc.

Khaenri'ah or Mondstadt?

What exactly Kaeya was meant to do as an agent of Khaenri'ah is still unknown, and may in fact be unknown to Kaeya himself. Being born of Khaenri'ah yet raised well in Mondstadt, Kaeya often wrestles with thoughts on where his loyalties would lie if a conflict between the two nations broke out.

Where ever his true loyalties lie, one important fact is that Kaeya is living proof that the Khaenri'ah mentioned only in histories and legends still exists somewhere to the east of Mondstadt.
