Nod-Krai Region Overview and Content Hub in Genshin Impact

Nod-Krai is unlike other regions in Genshin Impact. With Nod-Krai being classified as it's own autonomous region located south of Snezhnaya. Nod-Krai is a melting pot of a wide range of factions such as the Fatui, Adventurers' Guild, Treasure Horders and even The Hexenzirkel. On top of that, a plethora of new factions exist solely inside of Nod-Krai such as The Frostmoon Scions and The Wild Hunt.
How to Unlock the Nod-Krai Region?
Nod-Krai can be "unlocked" by following Archon Quest through Natlan however players can simply travel to Nod-Krai if they need to explore the new region to obtain any upgrade materials for new characters.

Nod-Krai Gameplay Mechanics
Kuuhenki and Kuuvahki
Kuuhenki and Kuuvahki are some of the main ways you interact with puzzles around Nod-Krai. Kuuvahki is a way you can further empower yourself and then utilise that power to complete puzzles. Generally located around special types of plants in Nod-Krai but there are other sources.

Kuuvahki puzzles tend to operate on "magnet rules" where opposites attract and the same colours repel. Commonly using a red and blue colour which you interact with differently depending on the colour of your Kuuvahki.
Kuuhenki on the other hand, are similar to seeles from other regions. When they follow you around, they will provide the relevant kuuvahki, but they can also be used for a range of exploration-based puzzles too allowing you to take their form.
While you can gain the power of Kuuvahki, so can enemies so be careful!
Evermoon Seals

Evermoon Seals can be located around Nod-Krai. When 3 seals are obtained in that specific region, you may use them to open a treasure vault located inside of that subregion. Granting you a range of rare rewards.
Luna Treasure Compass
The treasure compass for Nod-Krai receives a massive upgrade. By upgrading Meeting Points you can upgrade the exploration ability of the Luna Treasure Compass. This allows you to see key collectables on your minimap such as Oculi, Treasure chests and more!

Meeting Points in Nod-Krai
Meeting Points are a new system available in Nod-Krai that take the place of the Sigil offering system as well as the faction reputation system and merge them both together. Luna Sigils can be exchanged at each faction and with enough exploration increase, you will upgrade the Meeting Point for that faction.
This grants you with new rewards as well as specific quests focusing on a playable character from that faction. Furthermore, upgrading your Meeting Point for that region allows the Lunar Treasure Compass to function showcasing collectables on your map.
Statues of the New Moon
Much like other regions, Nod-Krai also features a type of statue. But unlike other regions this is a Statue of the New Moon and not a Statue of the Seven. Interact with the Statues to unlock a teleportation point and open the map for the sub-region linked to it.
Once you unlocked your first New Moon Statue you will be able to offer your Lunoculus in order to increase the statue's level. The statue's max level is 10 which will come with future regional upgrades.
