HoYoFair 2022 begins on September 24 with a showcase of Genshin Impact fan art, and an excited fan has revealed a teaser trailer for a Raiden Shogun animated short that is debuting at the event. The fan event arrives just a few days before the debut of Genshin Impact version 3.1, which introduces the highly anticipated Sumeru desert area.

Reddit user u/reverieMidnight revealed a teaser trailer for an animated short showcasing the history of the Raiden Shogun in Genshin Impact. The trailer begins with Ei, the young girl that would eventually claim the Raiden Shogun mantle and lead Inazuma as its chief Archon god. Ei is depicted with her sister, Makoto, and her Inazuman friends from long ago. Players were shown a glimpse into Ei's early life before becoming Raiden Shogun in the story quest line titled «Imperatrix Umbrosa Chapter» in Genshin Impact. The new teaser trailer released one day after HoYoverse announced the official Genshin Impact anime adaptation.

Alongside the teaser trailer, u/reverieMidnight announced the name of the animated short: «Dreams in Eternal Reminiscence.» The animated short will premiere at HoYoFair 2022 and depict the Raiden Shogun's past life as Ei and «the meaning of impermanence to an eternal being.» In collaboration with HoYoverse, Dreams in Eternal Reminiscence will expand on Ei's early life while staying true to the source material found in Genshin Impact. Additionally, the animated short will likely provide insight into Ei adapting to the role of Raiden Shogun and her struggles as a god.
