Genshin Impact Bedtime Story Archon Quest Sumerian message translation

A message, written in Sumerian, pops up after you uncover the identity of the missing person: Caribert, whose tragic life was at the forefront of the previous Archon Quest. When he transports you to a hidden place within his consciousness, he leaves behind a message for Atossa, who has been searching for him since his "disappearance."

The above message, translated into English, reads:

Farewell Atossa

I apologize

For making you know me

unwillingly

Still I don't wish

you to forget me

Who is Caribert in Genshin Impact?

Caribert Alberich was a Khaenri'an who was cursed into becoming a Hilichurl and was later sacrificed to create the Loom of Fate, a tool that can be used to alter Ley Lines.

The partially completed Loom of Fate was powerful enough to allow the remnants of Caribert's consciousness to insert himself into the memories of people from Vimara Village, giving him a short-lived experience of a normal life. His impact on the village was large enough for them to send out Commission requests in search of him as soon as he disappeared.

Caribert and Atossa's dialogue lines heavily imply that they shared an intimate relationship within the fabricated memories. In his reminiscence of the people from Vimara Village, Caribert put his memories with Atossa front and center, showcasing the fond times they shared under their favorite tree. At the end of the story sequence, Atossa assumes that she has been dumped and struggles to cope with Caribert "leaving with his family." Caribert's message strongly suggests that, until the moment his consciousness disappeared from the world, he still wanted Atossa to keep a fragment of him in her memories.
