Genshin Impact Aino: Genius Designer of Clink-Clank Krumkake Craftshop
Hello, Travelers! I wonder if you have encountered those marvelous mechanisms during your exploration of Nod-Krai?
The Crackling Kuuvahki energy cannon that protects Nasha Town from the invasion of The Wild Hunt, the running imaging mechanisms, the flower-shooting guns, and the floor-sweeping machine that acts like a puppy-all these are the fun mechanical creations of Aino, Nod-Krai's most genius mechanical engineer. However, there are actually many more stories about Aino herself. In this issue, let's learn more about her together.

1. Genshin Impact Aino - "Conch Gang"
Before establishing her own workshop, Aino was a member of the "Conch Gang" at Speranza. This was a shelter provided by the former bounty hunter Katya for the homeless children of Nod-Krai.
Aino was once a homeless child herself. Whether it was due to unavoidable separation or intentional abandonment, we can no longer know. At that time, her voice was as faint as a mosquito's buzz, and she was entirely inconspicuous. Because of a freezing rain, she arrived at "Speranza" and became a member of the Conch Gang.

We first encountered Hekka from the Conch Gang back in Natlan. After coming to Nod-Krai, we can also find these energetic and highly curious children everywhere. What Katya provided them was not just shelter, but also hope for living on. However, while the other children roamed the woodland in groups, young Aino preferred to be alone. This was not because she lacked curiosity typical of a child; on the contrary, her curiosity was even more vast, oriented towards a rational world composed of precise lines, craftsmanship, mechanisms, and clever devices.

A shared passion for machinery made her and Lyulka, the daughter of the owner of the Rossum Workshop, become lifelong best friends. But unexpectedly, Aino, who had never studied mechanical theory, pinpointed the bottleneck that had stumped Lyulka after days of contemplation. This filled Lyulka with deep emotion, believing that if Aino could receive systematic training in mechanical theory, she might be able to create miracles.
The opportunity soon arrived when a merchant caravan stopped in Nasha Town for supplies. Papa Wrench, a Snezhnayan mechanic with the caravan, did not accompany them to Zapolyarny Palace due to his fear of the place where he had once lost his memory, instead choosing to stay in Nasha Town.

While dining at Speranza, he was drawn to the group of child attendants. Being a compassionate man, Papa Wrench often came to tell the children stories about Snezhnayan spirits. However, while the other children were enthralled by the tales, only one small figure's gaze remained firmly fixed on the tools he carried with him. This greatly relieved Papa Wrench, who proactively started a small mechanical class there, teaching children interested in machinery.
Aino finally welcomed her spring. Like a sponge, she continuously absorbed knowledge. Within just a few days, the topics she discussed with Papa Wrench were already like a foreign language to the other children. As if blessed by a spirit, Aino was no longer as soft-spoken as before; her little head was filled with an endless stream of novel ideas. And during this time, Papa Wrench always encouraged her, believing she could certainly create the works he imagined.

At Blue Amber Lake, we can find the handnotes left by Papa Wrench. He believed that although Aino was still like an uncut gem at that time, she had already begun to shine with her own unique brilliance. For Aino, the knowledge shared by Papa Wrench completely opened the door to the world of machinery for her.
However, happy times are always short-lived. After the merchant caravan returned from Snezhnaya, Papa Wrench also had to depart. At the moment of parting, he gave Aino a screw.

This screw became Aino's iron hair clip and also her guiding light, just as Papa Wrench hoped for her-not to underestimate her own talent and never to give up on machinery. Adhering to this belief, as Aino grew older, she left the Conch Gang like the other children and declined her friend Lyulka's offer of a stable job. She wanted to travel further, see more, and create interesting inventions that no one had ever made before.
She chose an unnamed mechanical graveyard west of Nasha Town and began building the Clink-Clank Krumkake Craftshop there-because Aino wanted to invent a machine there that could make the most delicious krumkake.

2. Genshin Impact Aino - New Family Members
Ineffa was not Aino's first family member, but she is the one who understands Aino the most. Whether as a child or as a genius, Aino was once lonely. She lost her parents' company at a young age and experienced partings repeatedly. In the bitter cold land of Nod-Krai where the north wind howls, every turn could be a final farewell. After leaving Speranza and the Conch Gang, only machines kept her company.
Long before taking Ineffa in, Aino had already exhausted her technical means, trying to give each robot she created a unique personality. A lonely genius also yearns for companionship, just like a little girl's craving for sweets. To this day, Aino continues to advance further on this path of genius, but unlike before, she now has many family members.

Aino likes sweet foods. Although she cannot do housework or cook, the Clink-Clank Krumkake Craftshop has become a famous "krumkake" workshop far and near. Her talent is unparalleled. The kindness she once received set her on the right path. Machinery is a very dangerous thing, just as the Rächer of Solnari used the Crackling Kuuvahki energy cannon to revive, and Eustachy modified the Krum-Clank 70 percent Sweet into a weapon. But who would be afraid of a cute little pink girl?

Every robot that joins the workshop is Aino's family, the companionship she craves. So this power can only be firmly grasped by Aino. As long as you harbor no malice and are willing to praise Aino's inventions and Ineffa's craftsmanship, I believe you can certainly become good friends with her. Under the halo of a genius inventor, Aino is still a child in need of companionship.

As long as you harbor no malice and are willing to praise Aino's inventions and Ineffa's craftsmanship, I believe you can certainly become good friends with her. Under the halo of a genius inventor, Aino is still a child in need of companionship. Nod-Krai became the chaotic state it is now only five or six hundred years ago, and Ineffa once wandered this land for a thousand years. Perhaps it was once a gentle place. Just like the "Nod-Krai people" in Ineffa's definition.
Ineffa once made a home in Nod-Krai in the distant past, and now she has become Aino's family. I believe she has the deepest understanding of the Nod-Krai people. Then can Aino, the most Nod-Krai person, return this land to its former times?

That concludes all the content about Aino. I believe that after reading this, you must have gained more understanding of this girl who loves machinery. Of course, the stories surrounding her and Nod-Krai are far from over. Let's look forward to the stories of other characters together!
